Chapter 638: Speed and Subscription Ratio

In fact, there are many factors that can affect the subscription ratio.

The most important of these is of course the quality of the book, the quality is not good, and the number of subscribers when it is on the shelves is naturally not large, after all, subscriptions cost money.

As for the poor quality, why do you have a good number of collectors?

This question can be divided into several situations.

One situation is that the type of this book just stepped on the tuyere, and an Internet tycoon once said such a sentence: When the wind rises, even if it is a pig, sitting on the tuyere, it can take off.

And this phenomenon has always existed in the online literature industry.

Every year, there are always some lucky people, who may have poor writing, bloody plots, and other problems, but the data of their new books is rising much faster than other types of works.

This is one of the great benefits of stepping on the tuyere and hitting a hot topic.

But this type of work, when it is put on the shelves, the subscription ratio is generally not optimistic, after all, in the free new book period, there may be many readers who like the story of this theme, and take a look, take a look, and pass the time, but when they really need to pay for reading, many of them turn around and leave.

The reason?

It's just that I don't think it's worth spending money on a work of this quality.

Another scenario......

It's also quite common, this situation is that the title, introduction, and even the cover of the book may be quite pleasing, and the beginning of the work is even quite good, but before it was put on the shelves, a certain poisonous plot was written, and most readers will die of poison when they see it, so don't expect them to spend money to subscribe to your book when it hits the shelves.

What about the third case...... Similar to the second one.

But it's a little different.

The second is that a certain poisonous point in the plot has killed a large number of readers, and there may not be any major problems in the overall plot.

is like the early stage of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", the little dragon girl was ridden by the dragon knight Yin Zhiping.

In this case, in terms of plot, can you say that it is unreasonable?

The plot makes sense, but this kind of plot is undoubtedly a big poison point for most readers, and its lethality is comparable to that of broken intestines and crane top red, which can definitely produce a critical blow to the innocent hearts of countless book fans.

When Master Jin wrote such a plot, it still caused a strong backlash from countless book fans, and it is said that the glass of his house was smashed by angry book fans, not to mention the average online writer?

And the third situation, similar to the second point, is that before it was put on the shelves, it killed a lot of book fans, but the way it killed the book fans was not a poisonous point, but the collapse of the plot, or the collapse of the character, or the collapse of the power system, and so on.

Anyway, in short, the free new book period is actually a great test for an online writer who aspires to live on manuscript fees.

Under normal circumstances, ten ordinary authors, after the end of the new book period, may be wiped out by ten entire armies, and they will not be able to pass the test of the new book period.

And the sale on the shelves is just a result of the end of the free new book period, just like a long-distance runner who gets on the track, after the starting gun goes off, and runs 3,000 or even 10,000 meters with other athletes.

In the process of running, how much sweat this athlete has shed, how much hardship he has endured, how many mistakes he has made, and the limitations of his own strength, etc., will get a result when he reaches the finish line.

The result itself seems to belong only to the moment when you cross the finish line.

Actually?

The athlete's performance depends on the bits and pieces of his race.

Maybe this athlete has performed very well in all aspects of this competition, only made one mistake, and then he may be the last one in this competition.

The new book period of an online article is so cruel, no matter how many flashes there are when your new book is free, and how many readers you attract to collect your book, as long as you make a mistake before you put it on the shelf, your subscription ratio will change a little when it is put on the shelf.

The more mistakes you make, the more unsightly your subscription ratio will be when you put it on the shelves.

If you made a well-known mistake before you put it on the shelves, then I'm sorry, no matter how many cool points you wrote in the plot before you put it on the shelves, the subscription ratio when you put it on the shelves will be ugly.

Sun Quan has ever seen the worst author, a level 5 author he knows, and the number of first orders for a new book when it hits the shelves is exactly 5.

You read that right!

Level 5 Author, First Order 5.

There are no missing words in the numbers here.

……

Sun Quan's impact on the update speed of new book issues on the subscription ratio...... In fact, this understanding was suddenly realized more than ten years after he wrote an essay before his rebirth.

It can be said that before that, he had suffered many losses in this regard, and he never knew it.

And what he realized......

It is the impact of the update speed on the life and death of the bookmarked.

This doesn't sound easy to understand, but if you take it literally, it doesn't seem to be very friendly to "readers", and in practical terms, it's the impact of update speed on the number of followers in 24 hours.

This concept has not been mentioned for many years after the birth of online articles.

It wasn't until the technological advancement of websites and the use of emerging big data technology by some websites to observe the number of views of each time period and even each chapter of a book that this concept was slowly recognized by some online writers.

It is said that later many websites began to arrange recommendations for each new book based on this data, and works with a large number of followers within 24 hours will be arranged with a good recommendation position, and works with a small number of followers within 24 hours will be arranged with average results, or very poor results, or no recommendations at all.

The concept of 24-hour follow-up people, as the name suggests, is the number of people who read the latest chapter of a new book within 24 hours every day.

It's hard to fake.

Authors can spend money to brush clicks, recommend votes, collections, and even other data for their works, but it is very difficult to brush the number of readers 24 hours a day, anyway, before Sun Quan was reborn, he had never heard of anyone who had the ability to read a book 24 hours a day.

Especially the free new book period.

24-hour tracking this thing is also affected by many factors.

A new book...... The slightest flaw in the new book period will be reflected in the number of followers in this 24-hour period.

Maybe you have a small flaw in the last chapter, and when the next chapter is updated, the number of followers will drop directly.

Sun Quan believes that the update speed of the new book issue has a great impact on the number of people who follow it in 24 hours.

It's hard to imagine how many readers of a new book with a small number of words would be willing to chase you every day if it only updates one chapter a day, or even breaks off, when the new book is in the new period.

The impact of other aspects on the subscription ratio, not to mention here, only the impact of the update speed of new book issues on the subscription ratio.

Here's an example!

For example, if you open a new book, the quality is okay, and one or two chapters are updated every day, and some readers put your book on the shelf and add a number of people to your book.

But because your new book update is unstable, and even occasionally interrupted, when you keep up, the update speed is not fast.

The readers who collect your book may have 20%, 30%, or even more people every day who don't follow your book for the time being.

But because I am still a little interested in your book, I still put your book on the shelf.

This will give you an illusion.

- The number of collectors you see on the author's background is still increasing every day, and you can't see that the number of collectors is declining.

But when your new book finally finishes the free new book issue and hits the shelves, the fans who still have your book on the shelf, but have long since stopped reading it, may not contribute a subscription to you at all.

Sun Quan defines this kind of collection as a "dead collection".

It's like a zombie fan on the neck, it looks like there is such a person, but in fact, this person has long stopped paying attention to you, no matter how you jump, people will not glance at you again.

But what if you think about it the other way around?

If your new book is updated quickly, with three, four, or even more chapters updated every day, there is very little loss of readers who follow your book every day.

This situation continues until your new book is on the shelves, and the number of people who pay you to subscribe is naturally much higher.

Because most of the existing collections of your book are still "living collections", and there are very few "dead collections".

And this is the impact of update speed on the subscription ratio.

It's not hard to see why.

Sun Quan understood it before he was reborn, but the first three books he wrote after his rebirth didn't do so when he was in the new book period, why?

Was it because he hadn't been single enough years at that time, and his hand speed wasn't fast enough?

The answer, of course, is no.

Most of the current readers at the starting point know that Salted Fish is my grandson, who has long been a typical explosion master, and his speed is very fast.

The reason why his first three books didn't do so was simply ...... It's just a matter of weighing the pros and cons.

The rapid update of new book issues is a great benefit to the subscription ratio when it is put on the shelves, but the disadvantages of this are also obvious.

- will greatly shorten the free time before a new book hits the shelves.

If the new book period is updated quickly, you may have a lot more words than the works on the shelves in the same period before they are released, but your free days are much shorter than the works that were on the shelves during the same period.

The direct consequence is that the new issue of the book is not exposed enough to attract enough readers, and then when it is put on the shelves, the subscription ratio of the book may be quite high, but because the total number of people in the collection when you put it on the shelves is very limited, no matter how high your subscription ratio is, the final number of subscribers is also very limited.

Therefore, there have always been few authors who dare to update the new book issue quickly.

Most authors can't do it, and the few authors who can do it quickly are aware of the serious negative effects of updating new book periods too quickly, and they deliberately control the amount of updates they have.

Sun Quan plans to speed up the update of this new book "Wish of the Dead" because he is confident that even if the free days of this book are greatly shortened, it will not have a great impact on the first order data of his book on the shelves.

And speeding up the update, the increase in the subscription ratio is what he wants.
