1. Engaging Content: Be proactive and ensure there is always an ongoing, long series in your profile! Data suggests that long series with 100+ parts, each consisting of at least 1000 words tend to perform well. Focus on regularly promoting these premium series to attract readers.
2. Consistency in Posting: Should I wait after publishing to check whether Pratilipi gives me readers or not? Not at all. There are thousands of readers on Pratilipi, and numerous series are available for them. Therefore, increase the visibility of your series by maintaining a regular posting to retain reader interest for new parts. Aim to publish a minimum of three parts per week.
3. Build a habit: Seat a daily writing routine of 30-45 minutes, building 800-1000 words consistently to boost your publishing.
4. Use Reader's Favorite Themes: Choose popular themes such as romance, drama, suspense, horror, crime-thriller, and others that are loved by Pratilipi readers.
5. Participate in the 'Super Writer Award' competition: To maximize your earnings, write engaging and high-quality long series in the competition. This practice will create a habit of excellent long series within a timeline, thereby increasing both your frequency of writing and writing speed.
6. Part Length and Hooks: End each part with a compelling hook or cliffhanger, motivating readers to unlock the next part. Ensure that locked parts offer quality value, leaving readers curious and eager to unlock them.
7. Encourage Subscription: Persuade readers to subscribe for uninterrupted access to your series. If you are putting in hard work to write a long series, you should regularly appeal to your readers to subscribe for reading lock parts. This will help you earn more from your writing. Share your hard work and behind-the-scenes of your series writing. This can emotionally encourage your readers to support you.
8. Promotional Efforts: Use Pratilipi's Post feature, chatrooms, and messaging to consistently promote your past and ongoing premium series. Collaborate with fellow authors for promotion opportunities. Use social media or other platforms to promote your work on Pratilipi, attracting new readers.
9. Reader Interaction: Respond to comments, posts, chatrooms, and messages, engage in discussions, and consider readers' feedback to improve your storytelling. This can help build a strong relationship with them and increase engagement and support for your series.
10. New Seasons: Create the next season, sequel, or prequel to your popular series. As your readers have already shown interest in your series, they'll likely be interested in the next season. Reintroduce or use your popular characters in a new series!
