The future of a web novelist did not entirely depend on the publication of the novel, but on the quality and influence of the novel. Although publishing was an important factor, it was not the only deciding factor. If a web novel writer could write a novel that was extremely attractive, had a wonderful plot, and had outstanding character creation, then it had great potential to become a successful web novel. In addition, publishing was not an easy task. It required editing, review, and other tedious processes. If the novel wasn't good enough or the editor didn't think it met the requirements, then it was unlikely to be published. Therefore, web novelists needed to constantly improve their writing skills to ensure the quality of their novels and actively communicate with editors to obtain better opportunities.
