How to become popular on wattpad?
I've been on wattpad for I don't know a year and like 5 days. I only have 39 followers and 65 votes. I don't have many fans or reads either. I did everything a lot of people do. I followed other people, went in clubs, wrote about something on the "Whats Hot" List which is right now 1D fanfics and vampire.
I even ask some people kindly to read my chapters. They say sure but never do :/
I ask popular readers who are nice to maybe share my profile or story, they never do sadly.
I really need help.

Well, I can tell you some don'ts right off the bat. Don't ask people to read your story, or ask people to share you. That's not their job.
Your job as a writer is to write better, write a chapter that makes you feel amazing at the end. Not "okay", not "decent", but "holy crap, I'm the next J.K. Rowling". It takes a while. It took me about four years to get the fans I have now, and it's mostly because I update twice to three times a day.
And, while it's good to write something that's popular, maybe you should just write something you want to write. Writing something that you enjoy writing makes your writing even better than something forced. Unfortunately, on Wattpad, it's mostly about patience and waiting to see who will read.
All I recommend you do is write. Make improvements, look at tips on how to make your writing better. Write, post, and wait. And while you wait, write more. Keep writing. That's what you do as a writer. It's not about being popular or getting the most fans. It's about writing. Don't write to be popular; write because you love writing.
