Haven't posted here since May. Curious to see if being contracted has made a difference.

Stats still small time and not much change being contracted other than awesome feature slots :laughing:. It's cool. The story is getting small wins to the big gains. I've received some regular readers and lovely comments. I like to think my story is a fine wine maturing for the jackpot.

I guess it's back to writing.

55000/380=145.7

From my observations, the updating rate clearly give a non negligible help. I've seen stories with an inferior weekly collection rank having their weekly collection increasing by three or four fold just by releasing a few more chapters per week.

And in the end, the only stat i care about is the valid reader retention rate, especially the new reader's one. I noticed that the more chapter i release, the more people comes back on my story in the following days. The stats could be bad for all i know, but at least they're improving, which is i guess still better than the opposite.

Can any one explain how this works. And is it good if it increases

Just calculated mine.It's been 10 days since I began writing for first time. I its around 188

Arkinslize Yes, I noticed when the updates are regular, there are more collections, although there are not very many views. Well, the truth is I keep statistics for no more than 25 days.

70K vieuws
325 Collections
Ratio : 215

You can all help this ratio get better.

Let me be shameless.

2900 views/16 collections => 182

Chryiss Those are numbers for the hobbyist.

Epic awfulness to follow.

107k reads, 6 (six) collections including myself.

That makes a brutal 17.8K:1

Wonder who popped that las collection. I was above 20k:1 a mere month ago :)

StenDuring Yup haha!
And the last stat was after a week or so of views increasing by 2k each day for some odd reason or glitch. It used to be 170k something before that jolt lol. Still a bad ratio regardless of the ghost readers~

And you’re still around! Haven’t see you in some time, doing well?

Chryiss

Yep. Running out of buffer for my main but otherwise just fine. That one is at around 1000:1 and going steady there btw.

Chryiss 334K views /1390 collections / 15 PS

Waah! 1390 collections :eyes: That's brilliant!

I'm barely crawling to 200. It's like when you watch the clock hand tick slooowly and annoyingly to the next number and it takes foreeeeever. That's my collection add traction.

Trust me to write gay niche :pensive: I can't help it. I want to give my men a fighting chance for love. :smile_cat: Woah. I'm going down an off topic path here. :flushed:

Ironically, my views are clocking up the numbers faster than the adds. I suspect there's a lot of curious cats taking a peek. Or maybe more spambots catching on to my metadata.

StenDuring 107k reads, 6 (six) collections including myself.

Should I make it lucky 7? :smile_cat:

Hahaha :D

It's a sequel so I'm not entirely surprised retention is bad. The first book even comes with a warning I only wrote two out of the planned three books and have no plans to write the third.

Comparing book one and two is kind of interesting as well.

Book one: 208k views : 25 collections.
Book two: 107k views and 6 collections.

That's a fifty percent drop in views and 75 percent drop in collections.

StenDuring wowzers. :flushed: The difference of the two is really different.

StenDuring and the number of words and chapters in each book?
That is, the second book has fewer views? for what period of time is there statistics?

Gourmet_DAO

Eh, if the sequel had more views I'd be seriously worried.

Anyway, book one is some 130k words with the second one at around 110k. Give or take a few thousand each.

I dumped them here one chunk daily for a few months. There isn't all that much time between them in other words. After all we're talking two book I wrote 2003 - 2005. It's basically just an upload of an old work, so I never bothered even pretending to market them here.

120 and 90 "chapters" respectively. That's webnovel chunks and not real chapters. By any proper definition of chapter I think it's 40 and 30 respectively. Well, or something like that anyway.

The "chapter" problem is even more visible for my main. It's really 15 chapters per volume, but here I'm publishing it at almost 70 per volume.

I guess if you have very short chapters you'll get lots of views but a rotten number of collection. Publish 5k long chapters on webnovel and you'll probably end up with piss poor views numbers but a really nice views per collection ratio. Noone's gonna bother clicking into chapter two unless they're already really interested in the story.
