Just a heads up to check these sites if your work has been stolen by them. At least I can now say my story is popular enough to be stolen :blob_popcorn:

I’ve heard of the second one but not the first one. My story has been stolen on a different sketchy site :blob_hide:

My first novel ended up on both at one point but I requested that one of them take it down and they did.

I don't mind if mine gets stolen. It's a fanfic, so nobody can make money on it anyway. What's important is the message, so the more people who get to read it, the better!

Is this an indicator of popularity?
pretty much. If an EN web novel is scraped by aggregators, chances are it's popular enough on it's site(s) that it registers on their radar as something to scrape. is really handy for the few good EN WNs on webnovel that are paywalled.

Dafug, lol I forgot this site has mods that would erase the names of aggregator sites and had to take a moment looking at the [aggregator] tag on the title.

And damn, I forgot to take down the names.

I heard of them but they are just a listing website who collects stories and linking them to the original site. They are not that bad as you think.

I don't even bother complaining about it anymore, I can't stop it anyway.
