Account: xu_neko

Rater: missace123

Username: 4/5

Your username is short, easy to remember, and linked to your display name; most factors you need for a successful username. However, I could only interpret one part of your username, which was 'xu', as that is your surname, as mentioned in your display name, and I do not know or understand what you were trying to imply with 'neko', which prevented me from giving you full marks.

Display Name: 5/5

Your display name is your real name (or what I assume to be), which is something both risky and daring to do on social media. This complements your username with the addition of 'Xu', which helped me with your username, as the username did with your display name. Well done!

Profile Picture: 4/5

It's obvious that you love reading, judging by the many books stacked up as your profile picture, however I do have one question: are those books your favourites or did you just find an image on the web?

Header: 4/5

As the header is black and white, it makes the profile picture stand out more, which is excellent, as that's what a header is meant to do, as well as explaining a little bit more about the person behind the screen. I take it that you're a DC fan, which then can tell Wattpadders who write DC fanfiction that you might be willing to read their story as you understand the fandom.

Bio: 3.5/5

At first glance, your bio seemed like a long read. However, I found out that the problem is the listed fandoms you enjoy, which unnecessarily uses one line for each fandom, and most of them are abbreviated. I would suggest that you list them and have commas in between them, and type out the full name for each fandom, as some people won't know what "hp" or "teotfw" is.

Another thing that I disliked about your bio is the fact that you put "Dumb Facts you Don't Care About" as a sub-heading. This does not show any signs of professionalism, and can actually prevent readers from reading your work, no matter how fantastic your stories are.

Finally, I believe that "JOIN MY CONTEST: THE WIP AWARDS!" should be moved to the top of your bio, as that is what people will read first.

However, besides those three points, I believe that your bio is fantastic! It tells other Wattpadders a lot about you, and you've pushed the limit to your bio.

Location: 5/5

Often my favourite part of a profile as Wattpadders tend to think creatively, you didn't disappoint! "my mind" could mean different things to everyone, and I believe that it's a fun puzzle for other Wattpadders to think about, as everyone has different opinions and will interpret it differently.

With that said, it's not an uncommon location either, and if you wanted to make it even better, you could add an adjective before 'mind' to make it stand out from the rest.

Book Covers: 4/5

All of your covers follow a black and white style, they're all minimalistic, which I enjoy, however there are two things that stood out to me that I felt had to be pointed out.

First, for your poem book, the title clashes with the image of a brain, and makes the final two words slightly more difficult to read. I suggest making the font size smaller or repositioning the brain.

Secondly, the WIP Awards has some pink strokes on the cover, which I feel isn't needed. Yes, it does make the title pop out a little bit more, however it feels out of place as it isn't black or white.

Reading Lists: 5/5

You have made two reading lists with two very clear purposes for each one. I do not have any complaints, however I do want to point out that "The Carnation Awards 2020" belongs more in the "awards" reading list rather than the "contest stories".

First Impression: 8/10

My opinion of your profile is quite neutral, as there are sections of your profile that I particularly enjoyed, and some that I didn't. I think that most of the problems is part of the bio, so I suggest fixing that up a little bit.

You do show signs of professionalism, and you're even hosting a contest of your own, however it seems as though not many people have stumbled across it. I believe it's due to the fact that you use either too popular tags (which prevent you from going on the 'hot' list), or underused tags (which means that Wattpadders don't look at that particular tag). I suggest changing some of the tags to have more popularity with your awards.

OVERALL SCORE: 42.5/50

Overall, your account is appealing and meets the standard of an average Wattpad profile, but it's not anything new. Other than that, you seem like an active and open Wattpadder, which is great to hear!
