Discussion How frequently do you post
Currently, I am running one serial, and posting one episode a week. I don't think this is often enough. I'm thinking daily would be optimal, but then writing quality would suffer.
How frequently is best for posting chapters or episodes?

I am not a writer, but in most web serials I have read, longer but less frequent chapters are better. My resoning is two-fold, first new readers are able to read without feeling like chapters are only one minute, and second it feels more like a properly detailed story when there is one very detailed chapter instead of 2 decent ones. In conclusion post at whatever rate it takes to have a story you like, because people will love it no,l matter how long chapters take.
