A lot of you might already know about [aggregator], one of the biggest pirated novel sites out there, having the largest collection of novels. Previously, they followed the typical pirated site model, offering free chapters while generating income through ads.
However, in a complete 360-degree shift, they have now transformed from a simple piracy site into a full-fledged web novel writing platform. ?
Now, you can even become an author on [aggregator]! Just open the search bar, and you'll see a "Became an Author" button. ?
Yes, "Became an Author." ?
Once you click on it, you can log in, create your book, and start publishing. Their contract terms and policies are surprisingly well-structured, forming a non-exclusive agreement with authors. The terms are actually cleaner and more favorable than most other platforms.
Here’s how it works:
- You can set a coin price for your chapters without needing to apply for a contract.
- However, the first 30 chapters must be free, which isn’t too bad coz readers need a good premise before deciding to pay.
- They support PayPal, Payoneer, and USDT as payment methods.
- The minimum withdrawal threshold is $50.
- They take 30% of your revenue for site management and give 70% to you.
Open the spoiler if you want to read the full contract:
Now this decision is actually really good because now you can introduce your novel to a very large audience since [aggregator] has over 700k international users (probably the most users in an english webnovel site). All of them are trying to pirate novels but now that the site has almost shifted to a different category, the reader's mindset will eventually adapt to it.
I personally really liked their contract terms because it was crystal clear and they will have no real rights except of distributing.
Btw, I still don't know what's the value of 1 coin in usd in [aggregator] coz I didn't "Became an Author" there yet
What do you think about it, is it a good thing or it's just still not very trustworthy to work with [aggregator]?
