There's an interesting phenomenon that I've observed now for a couple of decades. Every time I release a new issue of Kokoro, there is an upswing in downloads for previous issues. Of course, the current release is the volumetric winner in terms of downloads, but the accumulated downloads of back issues always exceeds the current release. In other words, publishing new work has a way of revitalizing older work. Plus, as the back catalog grows, the coattails effect increases dramatically.
