The website was to be a writer\u2019s as well as a reader\u2019s <em>one-stop-solution for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.meraqissa.com\/page\/publishing\/\">publishing <\/a><\/em>their work in print ready formats, which would then be refined and edited to perfection, ready to be read online by the thriving amount of readers that visited the website in search for quality literature. It was an all in one solution for writers across the country as it helped them build a profile by putting up a bio, garnering readership, and also enabled the readers to give the authors constructive reviews on their work. It also helped the writers earn revenue from opportunities furnished by Daastan\u2019s client base, which ranged from various genres of content writings to digitizing handwritten works or ghost writing for their clients. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>The Plans Offered:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The services offered by the portal were categorized into three plans according to their needs, and could cater to any and all of the writers who wished to get published. The Basic Plan was free, it only required that you sign up on the Qissa website, upload your work, wait for the editorial process to be completed and voila \u2013 at the end of all this your work would be published online for all Qissa viewers to read, and you would also get access to other writers\u2019 work published on the website. The Pro and Pro+ plan came at a minimal cost per month and with it your account would be upgraded to receive additional benefits such as the ability to sell services online, as well as getting advertising credit. It also included a pro online reader which offered more features while reading eBooks, and the pro plus members also got to receive a monthly swag box featuring all the raging goodies of Daastan\u2019s literary empire. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Baby Steps Turning into Leaps and Bounds:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The portal upon its launch had more than 30 stories available online, most of them from Daastan\u2019s recent story-writing competition <a href=\"https:\/\/daastan.com\/blog\/thestoriesuntold\/\">\u2018The Stories Untold\u2019<\/a>. It also had works published by Daastan throughout the previous year. By the end of 2016, we aimed to have published more than 100 books and signed up over 1000 writers. Within Qissa\u2019s first few days of initiation, it received more than a thousand visitors, with 5 minutes being the average time spent per person on the website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Qissa aimed to be a medium which gave voice to those among us whose voice remained unheard, and words unspoken.
