Social Fiction is a new type of publishing platform that facilitates real-time, collaborative storytelling.
~10x per minute, people from all over the world post Tweets that include the keywords "fanfiction" or "fanfic."
Every month, the world performs ~875k searches for the terms "fanfiction" and "fanfic." This is ~30k searches per day, ~1,2k per hour, and ~20 per minute.
We believe search activity recently plateaued because the community lacks an adequate platform on which to express itself.
From a search perspective, "fanfiction" is more popular than related terms -- even when these terms are more broadly focused (eg., "publishing") -- and other "DIY" media formats (eg., "vimeo"). Since the summer of 2013, "fanfiction" has even held its own against the related, but ultra-generic, search term "writing."
