How do I get more reads, votes, and comments?

If you find yourself asking that question, then I have some answers for you.  

What can you do to reach out to readers and potential readers?  How can you encourage readers to comment and vote?  What are all the different ways you can promote your stories?

This #1 ranking guide is written by a Wattpad ambassador and especially geared for new Wattpad authors.  Lots of tips, advice, and personal opinions await you - including everything thing I've done to promote my own Watty's finalist and winning stories - but only if you turn the page.

Reader testimonial by @AyushiPandey-- 'I read your guide for Wattpad success when I first started writing my story last year in August, and now it has been an entire year when I stumbled upon it again. I just have to say, I loved reading it again, it has the best tips one can find (take it from me, I have read many, many guides here). Thank you so much for taking out your time to compile such an amazing book!'  

Reader testimonial by @suspishfishy-- 'I have to thank you again! As soon as I wrote a book that focused on what I wanted to write, instantly people started to read my books and give me feedback!'

**THIS IS NOT A PLACE TO ADVERTISE YOUR STORY.  This is where you'll find detailed instructions for the proper places to advertise and find readers.  If you ask people to read your story here, your comment will be removed.**

Thanks to @EnjxiiBlxck for the cover.

Does your story & writing shine as far as: ★ - Concept ★ - Voice ★ - Storytelling The Standouts is a fun, but hopefully helpful contest that can give you a sense of whether your story resonates with someone who's got some experience under her belt. Great! But who are you to judge? Fair question. This is not to humble-brag, but I've been critiquing and have worked with story development for quite some time, and I've picked up a lot along the way. ☙ - As an Ambassador, I work on content projects. ☙ - If you look at my profile, you'll see everything I've published so far has managed to standout in one way or another, whether by leading me to become a Wattpad Star; or by winning a Watty (twice!); or by being picked as a Top 10 in major Wattpad contests (twice!); or being featured. All I'm saying is I'm no slouch. I'm not brilliant either. But I've got some experience around what can catch an agent, editor, or judge's eye, and I'd like to share that with the community. ☙ - In another lifetime, I used to work for HBO in Development and at ICM (the talent agency) in their writers' department which means I understand how professionals quickly gauge whether or not they'll take a closer look at a work and/or make an offer. This kind of insight can be helpful if you're planning to submit your work or even just want to stand out more here on Wattpad. ☙ - I used to provide critiques for three writers, all of them traditionally published. They seemed to value my insight. Read the RULES, LOGISTICS & PRIZES chapter for guidelines. All entries get a brief assessment of their first chapter, with winners getting more extensive critiques. Sound interesting? Give it a go! 😊

Story of a beautiful , intelligent 18 years old girl who was forced to marry a guy, engaged to her sister. " Dear Mom I don't think I would be able to attend this wedding . Sorry for being disrespectfull and sorry for leaving you in this situation. I told you many times that I am not interested in the rubbish you call wedding but you was too busy to listen. And one more thing, I am capable of choosing my life partner. I don't need your involvement in my life. Your not so loving, caring and obedient daughter Anamika." This story revolves around these two people how they got married, how their love blossom, how they stand with each other no matter what the situation was. What happens when their marriage takes a turn for the worst or they started getting attention from the unwanted lovers . "We need to work out our problems " I softly said taking a deep breath. But he preten as if he didn't hear a word I said and started the car engine, causing q loud roar to explode through the air. "Do you still want to be with me "I question after some time. " He signed and finally glanced over at me " honestly I don't know anymore "he answered breaking my heart into billion unfixable peices.
