Jiao Ling is a part-time writer of online literature in Xi. Although she is a part-time job, she said with a smile: the income from writing novels every month is more than the full-time salary. 24-year-old, just started to contact online literature. Undergraduate computer major, always interested in writing novels. I just met a friend who is the editor of the online literature platform and encouraged me to write.
At the beginning, Jiao Ling's payment standard was only 7 yuan/thousand words, which was very low. The first online novel "The Phoenix of Rebirth Back to the DPRK" signed 600,000 words, with a revenue of nearly 6,543,800 yuan. I don't have much money, but my writing ability has gained confidence. Soon, the new novel "Daughter's Favorite Story at the Early Resurrection" was signed in Chen Wenxue1.20,000-1.60,000 words, and the manuscript fee also reached 30 yuan/thousand words.
It is expected that this novel will bring her at least 50,000 yuan, with an average monthly income of about 5,000 yuan. Although this figure is comparable to the income of full-time work, this income belongs to the lower level of the online writing industry, because there are many gods who earn 65438+ 10,000 yuan a month.
The monitoring data of the latest online literature platform released by Internet research institute iResearch also shows that from the perspective of the gender of contracted authors, there are more male authors (reading users are mainly men), accounting for 88.0%, but some female authors are still writing in male frequency; The authors (mainly female readers) of female frequency websites are almost all women, accounting for 97.4%.
In terms of age, net authors are generally younger, mainly under 30 years old, with an average age of 28 years old. Second-and third-tier cities are more likely to publish online authors. Judging from the geographical distribution of authors of contracted websites, the proportion of authors in second-and third-tier cities with low competitive pressure and relatively low consumption level is higher than that in first-tier developed cities with fast pace of life and high work intensity.
Guangdong province has the highest proportion of net authors, followed by Jiangsu and Zhejiang. The net authors are mainly concentrated in the densely populated and economically developed areas in the east, and there are fewer net authors in the west.
