I've had both kickstarter and indiegogo campaigns. They both work about the same. Right now if you go to indiegogo and put in Leading Lady my campaign will not come up in any way shape or form. It's like it doesn't exist at the site. When I had my kickstarter campaign for Trouble, it was the same way. I don't push enough to get contributors or even traffic.
After a certain amount of time, if your campaign doesn't have enough traffic, it just doesn't exist in the search browser.
That's because most people who contribute know the person they're contributing to, or they're already fans.
Most contributors hit directly from the link posted somewhere off indiegogo or kickstarter.
So, it comes down to simple math. Indiegogo you get part of all money contributed. Kickstarter you have to raise the amount you set or you get nothing.
Since the contributors are for the most part not absolute strangers, go where you'll get part of the money. I don't think there are that many people who will only contribute to kickstarter and not indiegogo. Because if they want to contribute they will. You just have to find and point them to your project.
I was going to contact some people who contributed to projects like my own. And the amazing part is, most people only contribute to one project. I've only found one person who has contributed to more then one project. The more incredible part is, I've seen people involved in projects give contributions. In some respect, that's where the indiegogo scam comes in.
Go indiegogo, at least you'll get most of what you raise, instead of nothing.
