September 14th, Sunday.
After the military training, it was the first normal weekend for the first-years of the School of Business.
Starting from Monday tomorrow, Jiang Miao and the other first-years would officially step into their college academic life.
[Congee Boss]: I’ve posted all the illustrations in the comnts of this chapter!
[Congee Boss]: (Image) (Image) (Image)
[Congee Boss]: Rember to like them with your author’s account!
[Peach Jam]: Got it!
[Peach Jam]: Love you!
[Congee Boss]: Ew, gross.
[Congee Boss]: By the way, your recomndation spot is changing again today, right? What is it this ti?
[Peach Jam]: This ti, it’s the Category Spotlight, including a Weekly Featured recomndation of the app’s light novel category.
[Congee Boss]: Is this recomndation good?
[Peach Jam]: Definitely… It’s way better than last week’s.
[Congee Boss]: Keep it up! Go, go, go!
[Congee Boss]: Feels like I’m going to witness a small-ti author taking off.
[Peach Jam]: Don’t jinx … I’ll be satisfied if my results are better than my last novel’s.
At noon, Jiang Miao was lounging in his dorm room, chatting casually with Congee Boss. As ti drifted by, it soon reached 2 p.m.
The recomndation spots were updated right on ti.
Seeing My Girlfriend Is a Content Creator appear in the Weekly Featured of the light novel category on the Xidian app, Jiang Miao smacked his desk excitedly.
He wasn’t worried about disturbing anyone. After all, Dog was out on a date with his girlfriend, Wang Xin had a debate match at 1:30 p.m., and Chen Haoshang usually wouldn’t return until around 10:30 p.m.
Having the dorm room all to himself was an esteed treatnt.
The location of the Weekly Featured recomndations was above last week’s Featured New Arrivals. The cover and text were slightly larger than the Editors’ Choice recomndations at the very top.
Thus, the promotional effect of Weekly Featured and Editors’ Choice was basically not much different.
However, the truly heavyweight recomndation spot for the Category Spotlight was not the Weekly Featured on the category page but the Similar Works Recomndations found at the bottom of every light novel’s details page.
This essentially ant that the location below the details pages of all the light novels across the site would serve as traffic pools for the Category Spotlight recomndations.
As long as readers were reading novels in the light novel category, when they scrolled down, they would be able to see Jiang Miao’s book at a glance in the Similar Works Recomndations section.
Therefore, even though the Category Spotlight was a recomndation spot before the Six Categories Recomndation on the hopage, its actual promotional impact was much greater than the Six Categories Recomndation.
It was almost on par with the Galaxy Recomndations on the hopage.
Only the Featured New Arrivals recomndations could surpass it.
For readers, these various recomndations could be overwhelming, offering so many choices that it was hard to keep track.
But for authors, even if they were struggling, they could still rattle off the long list of recomndations like reciting a string of dishes in one breath.
… Although many of them might not have even made it to the trial recomndations.
It was like immortal cultivation.
Right now, Jiang Miao was a newbie in the new novel period, and he had just shown so potential, so the sect provided him with so resources.
When his novel went premium, he would have almost progressed to the point where he could stand on his own.
If his potential (performance) continued to shine, he would be able to obtain more resources from the sect.
This included top-tier recomndations on the ho page like Editor-in-Chief’s Choice, Popular Picks, and even Cover Recomndations.
And of course, the sect had its own rankings too. The ones with the most traffic and attention were the Monthly Votes Ranking and the Best Sellers Ranking.
However, these two rankings were currently beyond Jiang Miao’s reach.
Up there, it was a battle between gods and immortals, and as a small-ti writer, he could only look on enviously.
The Similar Works Recomndations section featured 12 novels a week, with 4 novels rotating out every two days.
Once rotated out, these works could only be found by clicking the ‘More’ option in the upper right corner.
Among the novels currently displayed on the recomndation spots, besides his own, Jiang Miao only recognized one.
Soul Fight: Starting from Inheriting the Martial Soul Palace
This novel had really co from behind. From being relatively unnoticed in the trial recomndations two weeks ago to standing out last week, it had proven itself to be quite powerful.
The other two novels in the sa rotation as Jiang Miao’s were ones he hadn’t noticed before.
One was a One Pirate fanfic titled Purely Relying on Charm to Beco a Marine Admiral.
The other was an original fantasy novel called I Beca the God of the Creation Tree.
The forr had the advantage of riding on the One Piece fandom’s popularity, giving it a strong start.
The latter, being an original work, didn’t have an inherent relatability like Jiang Miao’s urban setting, making it the underdog of the rotation.
However, to be able to make it all the way to the Category Spotlight, its quality must be comndable.
I can’t afford to relax. Jiang Miao patted his forehead, went to the bathroom to wash his face, and then settled in for an afternoon of writing.
But he couldn’t focus on writing at all now. His attention was entirely on the author’s dashboard.
He refreshed it every few minutes.
Especially after his novel was on the Category Spotlight, coupled with the weekend traffic boost, almost every refresh showed his reading list count increasing by dozens.
As a result, from 2 p.m. until 5 p.m., he barely got any writing done and spent the whole ti refreshing the dashboard.
In just three short hours, his novel’s reading list count shot up from 10,198 to 11,003.
It was a growth rate that Jiang Miao couldn’t have imagined in the past.
[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: Why hasn’t there been a release today?!
[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: It’s the weekend, and you don’t even have debate practice. Why are you still slacking off?
[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: Don’t make co over to urge you to release!
Just as Jiang Miao was about to get ready for dinner, he saw the ssages from Senior Sister urging him to release and felt a wave of helplessness.
[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: Senior Sister, this is a boys’ dormitory. Girls aren’t allowed in.
[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: Did you forget I’m a class assistant?
[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: Release coming soon!
[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: But let eat dinner first.
[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: You haven’t written a single chapter all day???
[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: I was too excited about the recomndation… I’ll release before 8 tonight!
[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: Did you forget sothing?
[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: Huh?
[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: Our team’s debate match starts at 6:30. Don’t tell you’re not going to show up to support us.
[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: But I still need to write.
[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: Take your laptop and write there.
[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: That’s too risky!
[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: Don’t worry. I will protect you!
Jiang Miao almost spat out a mouthful of blood. What are you protecting…Back then, I was on guard against you all the ti, but in the end, I couldn’t do it.
Now that Senior Sister had leverage over him, every day felt like walking on thin ice for him.
[Zhouzhou Loves Congee:] Hurry up!
[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: For what?
[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: Dinner. I’m already waiting for you downstairs. Co quickly.
[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: Senior Sister, I suddenly don’t feel very hungry.
[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: Then I’ll co up.
[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: No! I’ll be right down!
