Is Wattpad appropriate for a 13 year old?

What is Wattpad's minimum age limit? Wattpad has been given a minimum age limit of 13, but the age limit is 17+ if downloading this via the Apple App Store and given a 'Parental guidance' notice via the Google Play store.

We do not recommend Wattpad for users under 17. Honestly, you do not even have to look to find inappropriate content. Some parents have a joint account with their child, but they will still be exposed to explicit book descriptions and cover art.

Founded in 2006, Wattpad is a website (and an app) that aims to build a community for people who love to read and write. 90% of its users are between the ages of 13 and 35, and the majority are women. For readers, there are stories available for any taste and in any genre.

As a social platform, Wattpad grew through word of mouth between teenagers – it's now a craze in several countries around the world. Alongside my own friends, 25 million others also read and write on the website, collectively having uploaded 40m stories and spending a total of 41bn minutes on the website.

It was a platform that allowed young creatives to flourish despite the stories being incredibly questionable. However, though it saw teens explore themes of sexuality it did so in ways that glamorise and promote abuse which is why Wattpad has ruined the minds of our generation.

Have a good author profile picture and a professional-looking book cover. Write a short, catchy blurb for your stories. Include something interesting about yourself on your profile page, as well as links to other social media sites. Load your chapters separately, because every chapter someone reads or votes on counts!

What is the Paid Stories program? Wattpad Paid Stories is a program that makes it possible for writers to earn money for their work, while providing readers with a way to monetarily support writers on Wattpad.

And no, your story does not belong to Wattpad after posting it on there. You can choose to hand in your manuscript to other publishing companies or self-publish after posting it on the platform, but be sure to remember to fill in the copyright before posting the book on the site.

How to see who checks my story on Wattpad - Quora. You can't, but if you go to your story page and click on 'stats', it will show you how many people read your story, where they are from, their demographics, and how many people read each chapter, etc. Hope this helps!

There are millions and millions of active Wattpad users worldwide. The vast majority of those users are readers only. That means they don't have a story on their profile page with numbers staring at them right in the eyeballs day after day.

Story site Wattpad has launched a new program which aims to help writers earn money through advertising and says a test run has already seen authors earning $1,000 a month, with some making nearly $2,000.
