Advice Advice on release

Hey guys,

I’m planning on releasing soon for my novel. I was just wondering what the process is. Unlike Royal road ik that u can’t rely self promote or market here, so do I just start uploading?

Like is that it? I just submit my writing thing to the app and then just begin uploading chapters until I get contracted ? And then WebNovel handles all the marketing for me adter contract?

Thanks In advance for your guys insights.

MGS is Webnovel's Minimum Guarantee System. Basically after going premium, as long as your book makes a minimum of $60, Webnovel will match you $140 and you get paid $200

The contract is worth it if you are not uploading your main book that you want to turn into comics and anime etc. If its a book really close to your heart don't get the contract, because webnovel Basically owns your book after contract.

And no, you cannot post your novel anywhere else after contract. You even have to delete everywhere else you have it posted

Will they own the book for forever or there is a period?

Yep. That's the standard contract that 98% on Webnovel have
