What volumes are considered the original SAO that were concluded years ago?

The stories are still related right? What i am asking is you said the original concluded years ago. The things that followed after the original are they continuation of the original series ( at least in a way?). As continuation i don't necessarily mean to continue the story per se, but rather if they are at least canon.

-Also you guys say web novels. Can you explain what you mean ? Like as in published in web vs published in magazine/book ?

lastly, is it safe to assume that Alicization ends at 10 and they yet again jump into another game? which would be 11?

Thanks a lot in advance .

Spoiler for reply:

Original web novel is what it sounds like - novels self-published on the author's own website. For Kawahara-sensei it includes Aincrad, Fairy Dance, and.... well... everything else. All the published LNs at the moment were all adapted from the web novel, into book form.

Yes, they're all canon, except a few side stories.

The latest is vol.10, with vol.11 coming next month. The amount of web novel left to adapt is projected to last until about vol.15, which was finished years ago. (that's what we meant by it)

The story for the most part is the same, but many events and details are changed/left out. Without spoiling, the web novel is generally more provocative and edgy than the published light novel.
