You want a ratio of 2:3 tall for covers. Also, the characters' outlines are hard to see because they are blended in with the background. Ideally, there should be a title as well.

600 for me is the sweet spot. Could catch around 80% at 900. It's pretty interesting.

Except when you take a look at those works, you'd notice that the first one is yellow and cyan, while the latter ones lean more toward purple than blue. That said, yellow and blue can certainly work well. It's just that if the OP wants their character to stand out, those colors would need to...

The composition is fine, though the color choices make it look somewhat glaring. Considering that this is a book cover, it should be fine once you fix the background. Desaturate the blue or change it to something else.

I'd try to change that flat blue background first, then probably make the text more easily readable.

I'd recommend sticking to physical if you don't have a stylus, unless you want to master mouse drawing, which sounds terrible. If you want to pursue the digital route, however, I'd recommend getting Clip Studio Paint. It's the premier drawing software alongside Photoshop, as far as I'm aware...

I see that the environment is drawn quite decently, but the artist overdid the smoke/mist on the ground. I'd probably smooth out the strokes and lower the layer opacity for a better read of the picture.

Never said it was the mobile thing, though.

Not the case for me. I find it straining to continuously trace the correct lines to read in a wall of text. Often, I'd be distracted for a brief moment and lose track of where I am seeing.

Because there are people like me who can't read a long paragraph without feeling sore in my eyes.

I don't look into the view counts, so I can't say what it is that gets a story there, but the 2000 reader mark is a hard cap. Try to observe the trending page for a week, and you'll see that none of the stories on there have over 2000 readers. Again, I'm not trying to explain the trending rules...

Been saying this like three times now, but the trending on this site is weird. Once you're on it once and you keep going, you'll continue to appear on there a lot until you get past 2000 readers, after which you'll never be in the top 9 anymore. I know the 2000 mark because I have four stories...

Just don't buy them again. Milk chocolates and white chocolates are so unhealthy anyway.

If you read a lot of web novels, you'd kind of realize that most people don't look for the 'best' story available—they read what they like. In this case, even though I haven't read your work, I'd say it's because readers on SH largely enjoy other genres. There are a lot more factors contributing...

From the same author: https://www.novelupdates.com/series/how-to-live-as-a-health-teacher-at-a-fanari-academy/ https://www.novelupdates.com/series/the-alchemists-back-is-hurting-again-today/ I can't attest to their quality, however.

Those are quite rare nowadays tbh. I'm not sure about SH, but I only found two that match what you want on Novel Updates.

Only now can I say this, but I draw them.

Learning how to draw and design a crappy but personal and presentable cover is definitely easier than finding the right prompts to make a good AI image, trust me.

QoL mods are a must, but if you want to enjoy lots of content, I'd recommend fusing Calamity and Thorium. There's an add-on balancing those two. I'd personally go for more calamity add-ons on top just for extra content, too. Hunt of the Old God is one, and Wrath of the Gods is absolutely...
