Without hesitating for too long, Sun Quan made his decision.
Add more updates!
Because he felt that there was a chance that by adding a few more chapters in the past two days, he would have a good chance of ranking among the top twelve new books by newcomers.
The reason for this confidence is that this is only a list of new books by newcomers, not a list of new books by contracted authors.
There are currently three new book lists in Starting Point.
New book list of contracted authors, new book list of public authors and new book list of newcomers.
In terms of popularity, the popularity of the New Book List by Contracted Authors is the highest among the three new book lists. At the same time, it is also the most difficult to get on the list, because most of the authors in the New Book List by Contracted Authors are old authors, and platinum masters have opened new books.
At that time, I was also hanging out in this new book list. It is no exaggeration to say that there are so many masters in this list.
Sun Quan's new book is currently on the list of new books by newcomers.
The popularity of the newcomers and new books list is slightly lower than that of the contracted authors' new books list. The authors on this list have one thing in common, that is, under their author accounts, there is only one new book that is currently being serialized, and there are no other works.
In comparison, the public author new book list is the weakest of the above three new book lists.
The authors on this list can barely be considered old authors, but the works they wrote before did not meet the website's contract standards at all, and they are authors who have never signed a contract.
If the list of new books by contracted authors is included this time, given that the number of words in the new book "My Decathlon" is still small and the exposure of the recommended position is not high, Sun Quan will definitely not be confident that he can add updates from 19
It would be too difficult to reach the top 12.
But now he is on the new book list.
Most of the people on this list are new authors. Although there are certainly veteran authors wearing vests, they are definitely not many.
Under this premise, Sun Quan, who is also wearing a vest, naturally has some confidence and ambition in his heart.
With complete certainty, he didn't.
But... you won’t get pregnant even if you try, what if you get pregnant?
As long as it can reach the top 12 of the new book list, his new book will be displayed on the homepage of the website, and its exposure will immediately increase by several levels. The benefits are foreseeable.
Smiling, he posted today's second update, mentally preparing to update two more chapters tonight.
As for whether there will be an update tomorrow?
Then it depends on the effect of today’s update.
…
At around 8 o'clock that evening, after finishing another chapter of the manuscript, Sun Quan took a look at the ranking of "My Decathlon" on the list of new books for newcomers.
——16.
Moved up another 3 places.
After thinking about it, he clicked on the new book list of the urban channel. The ranking of "My Decathlon" also rose a little, from the previous 5th place to the 3rd place.
After squinting his eyes and thinking for a moment, he didn't hesitate anymore and posted today's first chapter as planned. At the end of the chapter, he asked for recommendation votes and collections. Both of these data can improve his ranking on the new book list.
…
Late at night, when it was close to 12 o'clock, when he had finished coding another chapter and saved it, he checked the rankings on the newcomers and new books list.
Oriental Spider's "East China Tiger" has ranked third, and its upward momentum is still strong.
His ranking in "My Decathlon" has also risen, and is already ranked 14th, which is very close to 12th.
But at the same time, he also noticed that the potential value of his new book was much lower than the previous two books, especially the gap between it and the 12th place, which was nearly one-third.
After all, the 12th-ranked book is always displayed on the homepage of the website, and its exposure is much greater than that of every subsequent work. It is difficult to close the gap. If you are not careful, it will definitely be further opened by the other party.
Big distance.
But he has already reached 14th place, so there is no reason not to continue to rush.
His right hand holding the mouse was about to move, wanting to add an update immediately, blasting the 13th place as quickly as possible, and then closing the distance with the 12th place as quickly as possible.
In front of the computer, Sun Quan was expressionless, eyes squinted, staring at the two books numbered 13th and 12th. Suddenly, he let out a breath, let go of the mouse with his right hand that was ready to move, picked up the cigarette case, and lit a cigarette.
, smoking quietly.
He is waiting.
He planned to wait until 12:30 tonight to update the second chapter of today.
The reason is that he wants to steal the chicken!
He was not sure whether the authors of the two books ranked 13th and 12th were sitting in front of the computer at this time and were still paying attention to the rankings on the list, let alone whether those two authors had manuscripts saved.
If the two authors are also staring at the list at this time, if they also have manuscripts in their hands, then if he adds an update at this time, he will definitely alert the snake.
The consequence of alerting the enemy is that the other party will definitely choose to add more updates to maintain their data advantage.
As a result, it will be more difficult for him to break into the top 12.
Wait another half hour!
By 12:30, the two guys should have gone to bed. Then we will update again. When they wake up tomorrow, the 13th place should be able to explode, and the gap between the 12th place and the 13th place will be narrowed.
What? This is too insidious?
Do you call this insidious?
This is Sun Quan's own little trick to climb the rankings. This little trick can be used by everyone. He can use this little trick to blow others up, and others can also use this little trick to blow him up.
Winners don't need to feel ashamed, losers can only admit that they are not as good as others.
At least he didn't choose to cheat by brushing his data.
After patiently waiting until 12:30 in the morning, Sun Quan decisively posted today's second chapter update.
And ask for recommendation votes and collections at the end of the chapter.
In fact, asking for recommendation votes and favorites in the chapter name is more eye-catching and more effective, but he is still used to asking for it at the end of the chapter.
Firstly, it is to make the chapter names clearer; secondly, it is also to avoid alerting others.
His experience: When competing for the list, almost every author on the list will pay attention to the works of other competitors. Many people are used to checking whether their opponents are desperately seeking votes and collections.
Once they find that a new book below their own ranking is frantically begging for votes and collections, these authors will be wary, and then they will also work hard to seek votes and collections to maintain their ranking.
The way most authors check whether their opponents are asking for votes is to take a look at whether the opponent has "asking for votes and collections" in the chapter title.
At this time, it is necessary to paralyze the opponent.
Enter the village quietly, don't let anyone shoot...
…
Not only that.
Before going to bed, Sun Quan set an alarm on his phone for 6:30 tomorrow morning, which was rare tonight.
Most writers are night owls. At 6:30 tomorrow morning, the authors of those two books should not be awake yet, but many readers are already up.
At this time, if he gets up again and adds a chapter, the authors of the two books will not know it, but the readers who have already gotten up can see his update.
And this is another opportunity to steal the chicken!
