Bookapy request - Can you make it so we can upload images for our collections just like for our individual books?
The ad link we can put at the end of our stories is just a generic.

The ad link we can put at the end of our stories is just a generic.
I would also request that our ads display at the bottom of the individual stories cover page and not only at the end of the last chapter.
Not sure this would be a good idea.
You would be telling the user, upfront, before they have the time to get into the story that they should buy it.
I would think it would chase new readers away.

I'm not so sure that's the case. I post my stories one chapter a day, and sales increase after I've posted two or three chapters, and the link is there from the time I post the first chapter.
🤷
and the link is there from the time I post the first chapter.
But at the end of the chapter.
But at the end of the chapter.
I guess I'm not seeing how that is different from being at the end of the first chapter when only that chapter is posted and the last chapter won't be posted for months.

I think his second request, the one Lazeez questioned, was to include the Bookapy ad on the cover page (in addition to where it is at the end of the last posted chapter). That's the page that lists all the chapter names. It's before any of the story is read.
This:
The ad would still be at the bottom, below at least one chapter of content and then more as more chapters are added.
below at least one chapter of content and then more as more chapters are added.
Do you mean the ad would appear below every chapter? So every time the reader finishes a chapter, he sees the ad again?

…but I was responding to the above.
Appear at the end of the cover page in addition to the end of the last chapter.
Lazeez's concern was they would see the ad before even reading the first chapter. Kind of a hard sell job.
I don't know why it would be a hard sell. The chapter is always there for them to read first and anyone not interested in ever buying the work will ignore the ad anyway. Also, the choice to put an ad there or not is up to the individual author. If its a bad idea, then that author suffers and the rest who don't advertise gain. But, its not that big of a deal. If Laz thinks it would be too much of a hard sell, so be it.
If Laz thinks.
And that's what I was referring to in my response(s). If having the ad on the cover page increases my sales, I'm all for it. But Lazeez knows his customers better than I do. And he has to always take the SOL part of his business into consideration when making decisions on Bookapy. But I wasn't objecting to your request.
You know what would be nice on each story's cover page? The ability to have an image with a link to the author's Bookapy page. For example, mine would link to https://bookapy.com/a/5/s.w.-blayde
And then on SOL in the Manage Stories, a way to put it on all your stories like Change All End-Notes does for end notes.
But doing that might go against the site being a "no ad site."
