The magazine, hugely popular among teens in the United States also happens to be the first major magazine to join the platform according to a representative of Snapchat.



Sending a tweet to its 700K+ followers, Seventeen Magazine requested its users to add them with their username SeventeenMag. The magazine had previously asked its readers to share their thoughts on go-to funny or flirty Snapchat ideas.

Speaking to Mashable, Seventeen’s Editor in Chief Ann Shoket said: “As part of our ongoing efforts to speak to girls whenever, wherever they are, we launched Snapchat for Seventeen. When we met with [Snapchat CEO] Evan Spiegel, we knew immediately this would be yet another way for us to create a personal connection with our readers in real time.”

SnapChat mainly lets users send photos and videos that disappear after 8-10 seconds. The service, which is popular among teens and adults, is indeed a good platform for a teen magazine like Seventeen.

Many businesses are also seriously considering the platform for advertising purposes. As a business, you can claim $375 in Free Ad Credits using this Snapchat Ads coupon promo
