how do people get big followings on social media? I'm asking cause I want to be big on Wattpad I'm trying to write stories more.

do what you love

Explanation:

this might be cheesy, but being yourself you can show people who who are instead of some robot who sells themselves out.

Woo, I remember W-ttpad...

I'm trying to get more active on there again, actually. Somehow, through my really, really cringe-worthy fanfiction, I managed to rake up following of fourty (which seemed huge to me back then).

Here's some sparse advice:

- Be frequent. Keeping track and staying on top of your stories, fics, and updates is key. Of course, sometimes you'll slip up and something it will get overwhelmed (which is perfectly fine), but it's really great to be able to stay fresh. ALSO be sure to use proper punctuation, grammar, and spelling. It's a big pet peeve of mine seeing improper sentences and poor aesthetics.

- Put a lot of tags. This tends to be annoying, but putting the most relevant tags and then some helps your stories gain more traction and reach more crows, crowds who will most likely like your work. This inevitably helps the algorithm in your favor, too.

- Be fun. Time for the stereotypical advice. Blah blah, have fun while creating, etc. etc. But it's true! Make something you enjoy writing. Get in your element! Your audience can tell, too.

I hope any of this helps you. By the way, my W-ttpad user is Vanneep, I'll be down to follow you. Brainliest appreciated. Wish you the best!
