If you don't know what it is you either don't read fanfictions or the fanfictions you read are AI slops and stolen translations.
Yeah, I don't read fanfictions.

...but AI slops and stolen translations? Really?
This one, the Chunnibyou God Of Supremacy is offended (silently mutters 'Praise this one')

The only AI novels I've read are when I personally translated an untranslated chapter of a series because I just couldn't wait to read more.

As for stolen translations... I don't? Everything on novelpia is legal. There was this Genesis studio too, dunno what shit went down with that.

Chunnibyou God of supremacy says that divine punishment shal befall you for defaming a God

You’re an idiot. You’ve posted five chapters of ONE story you aren’t Tolkien. Especially since you posted three a few months ago and two within the last few days. You need consistent uploads to generate readers. Also a lot of longtime and consistent users of Scribblehub don’t start reading stories unless their at least 50 chapters long because that means the artist is sticking to the story and will most likely continue writing for a while. my suggestion if you want to get readers? Write a large number of chapters I’m thinking at least 25-30 to start then start posting one chapter a day until you reach Ch 50 then you can reduce it to one chapter every few days until you build up a stable reader base. However I would recommend keeping the uploads a little more consistent.

Then you can post once a week if you want but unless you have over 500 readers I don’t recommend that and unless you have over thousand I would keep to that once a week thing unless you want people to stop reading. One of my favorite authors writes three stories but posts each one at an interval of a month and does a mass release of several chapters for each story. He has over a thousand readers for each story.

If you want your story to get more notice get the readers you cultivate to heart the story and leave ratings and reviews. The higher the readers likes rating and views the higher the story rises on the tag listings and the more people see it if they look at the tag rankings for something new to read.

Basically this is a marathon not a sprint if you aren’t prepared for the long haul either stop writing or write a LOT more. Good luck.
oh wow, thank you for the help.i will work on that.

Do comments and favorites help with the visibility of the story in any way?

I've done ok with ~ 21 average reads in the first week. Just trying to understand how certain books do well. Is it working with the tags and genre?
Of course they do. You might even make the trending list, even if not the top 9, if you have sufficient engagement in terms of reads, comments and favs.
