Nothing aside from just releasing chapters often. Sometimes I write at a fast pace and finish two chapters in a day (~4k to 5k words). Then I space out the releases so my views in a single day spike and I have a decent shot of making the first page of trending, which I've noticed further raises...

I write every chapter in its own Google Docs file. Even my notes got really long two weeks ago, so I had to divide it into one doc for character notes and one doc for plot + setting. I'll probably have to divide the latter soon as well. edit: also i voted for the wrong option in the poll lmao

I spent an entire day writing and reviewing/editing one 2,000-word chapter on my story for about the first week and a half. I was very careful about avoiding plot holes and inconsistencies. Then I just went crazy in the last few days. Sometimes I manage to get two chapters/4k words done & edited...
