Okay, it has been days since I published my first story and it still has 0 reads. Does anyone have any advice for how to get at least one reader? :sweat_smile:

you can make a topic to promote your story with the details of the story and the link. You can also do R4R

Do read for reads. Also, link the forum/story here too so others can see it

I’d say about 85% of my reads below 100 were from r4r haha

Thank you for the advice <3, but I have already tried to promote here and on IG and the story still has 0 reads :upside_down_face: I have tried R4R, but I have read their stories but I am still here with 0 reads :sweat_smile: Maybe you should wait for the other to read your story first and then read their story…

Have you been requesting screenshots in your r4r?

No, but I have come to see that I should probably do that :sweat_smile:

I checked out your post and you said that 1 chapter is published. Reads won’t count until a reader finishes the episode completely. So if the readers can’t access episode 2, it’ll continue to say 0 reads.

I see :thinking: But I have just an loop on chapter 2 (that is not out yet), so you still come to the menu after reading chapter 1. But now, I can see on the writing site of my story that I have currently 3 reads, so I guess I just had 0 reads until now. :sweat_smile:

You should participate in r4rs, it gets reads and publicity
