With Brawna… is there any real need to post stories here? And should stories here be transfered to Brawna?

Discuss.

I prefer the forum format, it allows people who are interested in testing their skills in story writing (and gaging public reaction) over that of a more formal archive setup such as Brawna.

And no, I don't want anything that I post here to be auto-transfered there without my permission.  If I want that done, I'll do it myself when I'm ready to do so, thank you.   😎

I must concur, I prefer the forum's response to my writing.  Makes it feel much more worthwhile.

I haven't gotten as much as a USUK from Brawna yet.  😥

Maybe because the only ones who know about Brawna are members here who've already read and commented on the stories?

A few points:

1. Nothing will be transferred from here unless it's the author who does it.

 

2. Brawna is actually getting more referrals from Superwoman Mania than from Amaz0ns.

 

3. As ever more stories are posted to the Amaz0ns forum (or DtV), the ability to find what you're looking for decreases.  The key feature of Brawna is the story taxonomy.  As the number of stories there multiplies, that organizational structure will be invaluable.
4. Story authors can share in advertising revenue at Brawna.
5. Readers can subscribe to RSS feeds for the categories of stories they want to read.  Email subscriptions to categories will be available soon.

I'm really pleased with how things are going at Brawna – it's only been up about a week and it's already getting a substantial amount of stories, users and site visits.

Tell me more about sharing revenue…

But yes, I can see where people are coming from with on feedback but think about it like this… people aren't going to Brawna because the forums are the main place for stories at the moment. If they all moved over to Brawna, I imagine then everyone would go there to comment on them.

8-)Just to put my thoughts in on this topic. I think once the stories are posted to the forum and complete with all there parts, it would helpfull to post the full stories either whole or in parts to Brawna. That way they would be easier to save and read for fans and future reference.
Also, since some of the great classic stories of FMG are over 10 years old and some have been lost or not known to recent fans, the Brawna site is a great place to preserve and store them and introduce them to a new generation of fans.
Thanks,

Tell me more about sharing revenue…

Any registered user can create a Google Adsense account and then enter their account number in their profile at Brawna.org.  Once that's in place, 75% of the ads shown on pages containing the author's stories will "belong" to the author.  They will credit to his AdSense account.  25% will belong to me. 

So the author will get paid for clicks off 75% of the ads that appear on pages containing his stories.  I really have no idea how much ad revenue Brawna is likely to generate, but it wouldn't surprise me if authors made $1 to $3 per month off each story they post to Brawna.  So, post a dozen stories and maybe an author would see $25/month.  Maybe.  Like I said, I don't really know how this will work and I can't promise anything.

One more thing – I should clarify that the money made would continue in perpetuity, as long as the site is up.  So an author's posted stories would continue generating revenue month after month after month.  So assuming a constant $25, that's $300 per year, which isn't nothing.

[Prophet Tenebrae]

Naturally, that's assuming you get a decent click-through rate on the ads… People are oft stingy on that. Which is funny… it doesn't cost anything and people are always moaning about having to pay.

Still, people are always looking for a free lunch – or porn story.
