Comics are arranged into feature pages, which display the latest comic strip with a 30-day archive, or the entire archive for paying members.[dubiousdiscuss] Other features such as descriptions of strip characters, biographical information about cartoonists and links to other recommended feature pages are often included.

As of 2016, GoComics had more than 44,000 subscribers worldwide.[1] In addition to the contents of the page on the site, users can have strips emailed to them daily for free. Users can also comment on, collect, tag, and share their favorite comics.
