Chapter 100: Advantages are Disadvantages
Tong Yao agrees with her on this point, and she herself doesn't know much about the characteristics of each category, otherwise she wouldn't know what category to choose to create.
The woman continued.
"In fact, if these people understand the characteristics of classification, they may not be able to write fantasy in the first place, and the impact of this consequence is very large. First, it is a waste of time, normal people have 4,000 words a day, and they write two or three hundred thousand and find that they can't sign the contract, which is at least two months wasted at this time!!
Second, it hits self-confidence, these newcomers just rushed in, and they all felt that they wrote very well, but as a result, after writing for two months, they found that they couldn't sign the contract, and the clicks and favorites were all two or three digits, and the quality of their hearts was too poor, so they wouldn't write online novels anymore. ”
Tong Yao nodded, she also had this kind of psychology when she wrote "Southern Sword and Northern Sword", and after a little blow at that time, she decided not to write the martial arts classification, so she wrote the suspenseful classification of "The Evil Things in Our Village" in the second book.
"Master, ...... Then please tell me about the characteristics of these classifications. ”
begging for someone to be soft-mouthed, Tong Yao sneered, and the woman smiled and nodded.
"Speaking of fantasy, then I'll tell you about the characteristics of fantasy classification first. The fantasy category, no matter which world it is, or which website it is, is the hottest category.
For new authors, this is both an advantage and a disadvantage!
The advantage is that because it is popular, there are many readers, and the online text is divided into 12 categories, and the fantasy readers can account for almost half!
"And what about the disadvantages?"
"I just said the shortcomings, because there are many readers, so there are many authors, and there are many authors, and the competitiveness is great! The website gives the same resources to the twelve categories, and there are so many authors and works suddenly appear in fantasy, think about it, how will the editor choose the work to sign the contract? and how will the work be selected for the recommendation position?"
"The best of the best?"
The woman nodded, and then opened a report that she didn't know when it would be done for Tong Yao to see.
"You see, this is the data that I counted in a certain month in my world in 2018, this month, a total of 1324 new books were newly created in the fantasy category! and the other categories, the worst sports category, is only 5 books, 12 suspense books, and 13 history books!
Look at it again, the next month, out of these 1,324 books, only 24 were signed in total! 5 were signed for sports, 10 for suspense, and 10 for history!"
"I ...... Oh my God! 1324 signed 24 books?55 to 1? It's too difficult to sign a contract, isn't it? This signed too few books, right?"
Compared with other categories, these 24 books are already several times larger than those of other categories! ”
The woman opened another report.
"This is the recommendation report for the next month, let's take a look at the books signed last month, the 5 books signed in the sports, all of them have been arranged at least once recommended, one of which has been arranged 3 times, and the 20 books of suspense and history contracts have all been arranged more than 1 to 3 times.
Of the 24 books classified by fantasy, only 10 have been arranged for recommendation, and among these 10 books, only 2 have been arranged twice, these 2 books, one is written by a great god, and one is written by a level 5 writer. ”
"I'll ...... The fantasy competition is so fierce, huh?"
The woman nodded.
"Your world online article has just begun, because mobile phones have not yet appeared, so it has not yet reached the outbreak period, if it reaches the outbreak period, the competitiveness of the fantasy classification will be the same, and not only will it be difficult to sign a contract at that time, but even if you sign a contract, the recommendation will also break the head, because the number of recommended bits is unchanged, and the number of books is multiplied.
Therefore, many authors in the later period will say that fantasy is the grave of newcomers, and I also agree with this point of view, if it is a newcomer writing novels, I am not in favor of writing fantasy directly, if you have to write, then I personally recommend that you either work the theme creativity, or go to the small station. ”
"Little station?"
"Yes, now you only have the beginning of the Chinese network in this world, but there will definitely be many online novel sites in the later stage, remember a word, in this world, as long as it is a money-making industry, there will always be people who are concerned." ”
Tong Yao sighed, and listened to the woman's continued analysis.
"The situation of fantasy and Xianxia is similar, we won't say more, let's take a look at a big hit - urban classification! There are many readers of urban classification, because urban novels are closer to life, and readers are easy to resonate and substitute. For writers, urban novels are also the best to write, and for these reasons, the popularity of urban novels is almost the same as fantasy.
But the difference between the two is that the foundation required for urban novels is relatively low, as long as your subject matter is relatively novel, the creativity is more peculiar, or the writing is strong, you will achieve good results, and urban literature can be written from many angles, such as food essays, writers' essays, hacker essays, aura revival essays, urban immortal essays, farming essays, industrial essays, etc., as long as there are things or occupations in life, they can be used to write online novels.
But in the same way, it is easy to get started and difficult to sign, for the same reason as Fantasy Xianxia.
Then let's take a look at suspense, the suspense category is relatively small because the subject matter involves horror and thriller, and this category is unpopular.
Its advantage is that there are fewer people who write and the competitiveness is small, so it is easy to sign a contract and the requirements for listing are also low. For example, as we mentioned in our previous report, there are only a dozen new books issued a month, and if the editor does not sign them, then the website will not even have new books. In the same way, it is also for this reason that as long as these new books are signed, they will not get too few recommended resources.
In addition, let's take a look at the categories of sports and military, these categories are similar to the suspense classification because of the limitations of the subject matter, and we ...... when we wrote"
The woman quoted and cooperated with her own statistical data to analyze the characteristics of the twelve major classifications for Tong Yao.
Tong Yao was like a student pushing open the door to a new world, excited and curious, and her mind was full of key things that women had talked about before but had never heard.
She was done, but she had to put some effort into digesting it.
She was stunned, she suddenly felt a foul smell, but as soon as she looked up, she saw that the woman began to stick out her tongue again, this time it was even more ruthless, the woman's face became rotten and stinky, but her eyes were still staring at herself.
"Ah!! liar!! didn't you say hello in advance?!!"
Tong Yao screamed and fell backwards, the woman giggled, and changed back to her original appearance.
In the room, the woman giggled, suddenly became charming, and muttered to herself.
"Hehe, I greeted you in advance, can it still scare you? But don't worry, it won't be a few years, when you just want to leave, I won't let you go!"
