The secret to earn lots of money in your contracted novel is to have a huge followers/ readers. Try to to get to Top 200 in PS ranking, that is where you got most visibility, exposure wise. The truth is no matter how many chapters you pumped daily but if you don't have followers who are willing to buy your premium chapters then...your will be a poor author earning peanuts. In this site, hard work doesn't always guarantee your sucess, but if you have huge following, then you might make it. Many contracted authors are not earning much, including me.
Tips for success in Webnovel.
1.) Create an awesome, fantastic story/novel that majority would like.
2.) Amassed huge followers/readers.
3.) Get in to Top 200 in Power Stone ranking.
4.) Don't go on hiatus.
5.) Don't go premium too early if you don't have loyal readers yet.
6.) I repeat...huge followers and readers are needed to ensure huge earnings on your novel.
7.) The competition towards the top is too rigid and intense.
8.) Pray that your novel will get featured a lot or else....hehehe.
9.) Sometimes, not all the Top Novels are brilliant...but people like them and are willing to pay for them to read. You can have similar plot like theirs...but there's also no guarantee you will get the same success as them. So try to be open minded that not all will get lucky or rewarded with success in their lifetime.
10.) Try to create a free novel first, get your readers addicted to it, get as many readers as you can, then go premium on your next novel. This might do the trick. People love freebies...give them what they want first before you can get what you want later.
P.S. You need huge followers to your story, it's a must! Without loyal dedicated readers...you won't earn much. So...try to find solution to this...maybe you can earn much in the long run!
Good luck guys!
