Wattpad has a limit of being able to follow only 1,000 users. Once you have reached this limit, you will not be able to follow any more users. Please note that the following limit can be different for users that have more followers and that there are special circumstances where Wattpad Creators will be able to cross this threshold. The following limit is lifted after you get 10,000 followers on your own account. These limitations are to prevent spam.
If you have reached the limit, you will have to unfollow other users to be able to follow more people.
