>>> 
>>> Use rationalreads as your backend commenting and rating system, and as a result every new story posted gets uploaded to rationalreads (along with the appropriate chapter links and description).
>>> 
>>> This way your website gets visiblity to exactly the audience you're looking for (your value prop), and rationalread's rating algorithm gets more data (their value prop).

>>>> Hmm, I don't think I'll use it as a backend, but I like the idea of automatically reposting stories over there. I'll think about it and then contact the author, maybe we can figure something out =)

> Hi! Thanks to your feedback in the previous thread I've improved the homepage and added some features, and now I want to share with you the first version of the website =)

> Please let me know what you think, I'll gladly receive some feedback and critique and build features that you request.

> Is there any possibility of automating the transfer of stories from other fic-hosting sites?(Similar to what AO3 does for all websites but FFN)

>> **u/raymestalez** [+5]  (53 minutes later)
>> 
>> I already have a script that imports stories from FFN, I just haven't built an interface for it yet. This feature is definitely coming.
>> 
>> For now, if you want to import your stories from any site - just let me know, and I'll do that for you.

>>> **u/avret** [+1]  *SDHS rationalist* (an hour later)
>>> 
>>> Ok, excellent, thanks(I ask b/c I've a 46 chapter story I'd like to import, and at that level it'll take at least 1 or 2 hours to do manually).

>>> **u/nerdguy1138** [+1]  *GNU Terry Pratchett* (a day later)
>>> 
>>> All of them?
>>> Cause I'm working on archiving all of ffn, and I'm almost done.

>>>> **u/raymestalez** [+1]  (a day later)
>>>> 
>>>> No, not all, only the stories author wants to import.
