    I only translate novels with enough readers to make it viable for me. I was wondering if I could promote a novel enough to force it to become popular before I start translating it and that it is what lead to this post.
    Will I succeed? Who knows? My new resolution was to fail with gusto...fervor.

    Cheers!

    P.S I only translate Shoune Ai as Yaoi novels get flagged as pornography by Google. In case, you have recommendations for dropped BL novels, I will only look at Shounen ai.
    Cheers! Again.

    You see this as an opportunity but I see it as a gamble.

    Either BL’s fans will sustain your site or BL will drive away non-BL readers. :blobpopcorn:

    Domestic affairs, business management or martial arts (not immortal), but I don't like Japanese naive novel.
    More like famous millionaire, rebirth heavenly demon, my house of horror, gourmet food supplier, the overlord blood and iron.
    Not translated rebirth 2006, rebirth as cao cao, waring state king zhao. ( I'm to lazy to check how the novel write in Chinese)

    Basically, wuxia over xianxia . Sadly, that isn't popular.
    I translated a chapter of Song of the Clouds: Sequel to Sound of the Desert and got zero views.
    People criticize webnovel but at least they translate unique novels unlike other websites.
    Korean novels are not so popular.
    Given that I have to compete with multibillion dollar companies with their release speed.
    Thanks for the feedback

    I can recommend some raw novels from various genres that I think would be well-received if translated. They aren't necessarily my favorites because I prefer BE, tragic kind of stories.

    一替成名 (Become famous?): entertainment circle setting. MC quit his acting career to take care of his sick mother. Returning 6 years later in dire financial needs, MC was forced to take a job as a body double in sexy scenes with ML. ML was MC's fan years ago and still habor feelings for MC.

    秀色/七秀 (Qi Xiu): fantasy setting. MC got transmigrated into a book as his game avatar. ML is a half-dark elf and also the villain boss of the novel. Since ML mistakeningly signed a soul contract with MC, their lives were bound together. They scammed their way into a noble's family and joined a school. MC ended up working with ML to build a dark empire to pit the protagonist. There's a strong Harry Potter feel in this.

    一不小心成為妖界大嫂 (I accidentally became a demon king): supernatural setting. MC was a demon cat and ML was a demon hunter who was secrectly also a demon. Very fluffy.

    元帥的炮灰配偶 (Marshal's canon fodder spouse): instertesllar setting. MC transmigrated into a dogblood novel as the Marshall's canon fodder spouse. When he transmigrated, his character also sabotaged ML's mecha to kill him but ML survived with upgraded spiritual power. MC tried very hard to stage his divorce. I don't remember much of what happened but I think MC led a mecha researcher team and also taught at a university. ML was curious about MC so he watched to see what MC was up to.

    重生之掃墓 (Sweeping grave): modern day setting. MC killed himself after ML ruined his business and pushed him to the dead end. Born again in the body of a sick teenager who had a car accident, MC found his life involved with ML's life again when he visited his old grave. MC found out the motivation behind ML's actions and while he couldn't accept it, he felt bad for ML who grieved so much for his death.

    被豪门情敌标记之后 (After being marked by a powerful rival): ABO setting. MC and ML, both alphas, had been in love with an omega since high school. Now, years later, the omega returned and sent MC a message to see him at a hotel. MC showed up, thinking ML was the omega and they banged lol. MC turned out to be a repressive omega. IIRC, MC was an actor/idol and ML was a singer who also dabbled into acting so they filmed together and cultivated feelings.

    修仙之誤穿 (Cultivation miswear??): xianxia, transmigration: MC transmigrated as the sick brother of the heroine in a book. When he transmigrated, his father had ambushed the ML to dig out his dan to give MC (lol). In the stallion novel, the sister saved ML so when ML returned when MC was 18, he killed everyone from the family except the sister and took back his dan. MC didn't want to die so he saved ML and promised to give the dan back. They got stuck together for a while because ML couldn't dig out the dan and used MC as an energy filter.
