I recently started writing here again and have noticed that some of you get really amazing numbers of readers after a few days of releasing a story. I have been releasing one or two chapters a day at different times during the day and evening and have only managed to pick up around 35 or so readers on my story over the first week. Since a story only shows up on NU for a few minutes and a story is on the front page here for maybe an hour with all the stories being posted, what's the marketing secret to getting 300 to 500 readers in those short windows of time? It can't be just from this site. I know when I had a top-ranking story here, it took weeks to build up a following of readers.
