More chapters gets more views for sure, but that's only on an individual novel basis. More words and more chapters doesn't immediately set you up for success. The big series always pretty much start with huge amount of views from within a few weeks. And I think success here has a lot more to do...

I feel bad for them, because they've been tricked. It's a bad decision overall. You stand to make far more from patreon via cross-posting to royalroad and other sites than you could ever make via their contracts. The only time their exclusive contract makes you more money is if your story is a...

Just don't even bother. Seriously not worth your time. The relationship between author and reader is asymmetrical, you have many many commenters compared to you being just one person. Thanking nice people for their comments is nice because it makes you feel good, but most of the negative...

I think it's fine for forum discussion... but for the actual story itself, if you are planning to write one, there should be enough descriptive writing to let readers know what kind of creatures they are. Even if they are fans of the series already that kind of scene, background, and character...

Looks good. Looks a lot like what you would see in webcomic stuff.

Does his body have its own ego after it becomes a zombie? Like his body becomes a zombie while he's still a ghost, so they team up or become rivals or something like that.

It is no secret SC is a smaller site than both of those. As far as growth goes that's something site admins would need to speak on.

1st person is better for smut genre :blob_hide:

Not worth doing unless you are selling the book on amazon or something. I almost never edit chapters that are already done unless someone points out some egregious story flaw.

People just don't write reviews all that often. There's one on this site w/ like 1.5 million views and only 6 reviews.

I'm looking on the forums instead of writing my story or doing anything productive :(

Somewhat related, deleted chapters show up in word count.

Since this appears to be a translated novel, you should be getting this indexed on novelupdates with the appropriate tags and Chinese novel name. Back when I did WN translations novelupdates was always the biggest driver of traffic.

Maybe, but I think that's only really true for the established stories. For new stories most of the time I see them stuck at 50-200 daily views and are basically just getting ignored forever. To me that's not an issue of good or bad content, but an issue of advertising. A new story is at a...

One thing to keep in mind if you are buying this for a scribblehub cover. Covers here are 250p x 350p. So fancy art will not be visible.

These are the aspects that determine whether a story gets popular here. 1. Title 2. Genres/Tags 3. Synopsis 4. Cover Art 5. Actual Content Ranked in that order for importance.

I am not actually an artist, but I have gone through the commissions process for finding character art. Deviantart is probably your best bet for that level of realism and background detail. Most artists here do anime style character portraits. I'll be straight up though, the issue I have seen...

I know they have a contract that basically forces you to write 1.5k words daily or something like that. Which is honestly a lot if you're just writing part time. I would avoid signing any of their premium author deals, briefly skimming through some of the terms it seems like you forfeit most of...
