well, webnovel… a writing platform with the biggest reader base with which I have a hate and love relationship. I started my writing journey there and they generally offer two kinds of contracts. Exclusive and a Nonexclusive one, with which one could still make money if one wanted to.
But as one might expect, WN pushes their own contracted books more often than then uncontracted ones since they can make money out of them. (getting features as an uncontracted book is still possible but less likely)
(Also their charts regarding which books are trending is automatically set to only featuring contracted works. Well, one can change it to showing all books (contracted and uncontracted) but one can't change it to only showing uncontracted works) sight
Typically, one gets the biggest exposure there due to features and the least exposure due to uploading a chapter and ending up in the new section, since nobody is looking through the steamy hot garbage, kek, which makes it harder for us uncontracted writers.
Generally, one starts with either participating in various WPCs (writing competitions) or in WSA (the big writing competition) where one can gain traction way faster.
TLDR: Just upload your work and don't think more about it.
