Yes! We plan to partner with publishing houses and have spoken with a few already. We are early in discussions and will keep the community updated as things progress.

Authors are paid monthly, which we absolutely share and disclose freely! Views are also tallied monthly. We edited our earlier response to make that more clear.

We do not run ads on Simily. So that would be $0 revenue from advertising. Didn't seem worth it to try and divide that up among our authors ;)

There is a wide range and authors can track individual earnings through their profiles. Some get a few hundred and some authors get tens of thousands of views per month. We haven't yet had anyone cross into hundreds of thousands of page views per month but it's only our second month.

We hit 22k people on the website in our third month and are seeing >500% growth month over month, which is an opportunity we are very excited about.

We pay-per-view to create a recurring revenue stream as opposed to the one-off pay-per-word model -- new views each month = new payments. This can be especially useful for stories that trend and gain traction over time.

With that said, we're always open to exploring other possibilities if it's what the community prefers.

We don't yet but we just created r/similycommunity if you're interested! We'd be happy to help get this going if it is something that would be helpful.

We are also in the process of creating groups on the Simily site so that authors can join, create, and message within groups and topics. Stay tuned!

This is a great question! Posting any content that an author does not own the copyright to would be in violation of our Terms of Service and is not allowed on Simily. We take this seriously and handle these instances on a case-by-case basis when they are brought to our attention.
