Instagram for Cam Performers

If you’re looking for a great place to advertise your cam shows, you’ve got to be on Instagram!

Millions of people are looking for cam shows and hot new cam girls or cam boys to follow, and you’re just a couple clicks away from reaching them. Here’s how to use Instagram as a cam performer.

 

Getting started

Download Instagram on your phone and sign up if you don’t have an account already. 

  1. Chose a username that’s identical to or similar to your CAM4 name. Short and memorable names will help people remember you, Lala Capri, Lil Jezebel, Aqua Angel are a few examples of this.
  2. Write a bio that tells people about you, shows your personality, and includes your CAM4 or Twitter URL.
  3. Upload a SFW profile image. Portraits always work best, even if it’s just a quick selfie. 

Here’s an example from Layla Savage:

Posting on Instagram

Now you’re ready to start posting your best SFW content!

  1. Instagram is not chronological so don’t worry about posting when you’re online.
  2. Do not post nudity or anything overly sexual, which will put your account at risk of being deleted.
  3. Always use hashtags that are related to your photos. If you are posting a cosplay pic, you could use #cosplay and #cosplaygirl or #cosplayboy along with #cammodel #CAM4 #camgirl #camboy and #adultmodel
  4. Only share your best photos and videos, Instagram is highly visual so only post clear, styled, and attractive photos.  

Here is an example of great posts from Jadakai: 

 


How to Avoid Getting Banned from Instagram ?

Keep your account active by following these simple rules.

  1. No nudity is allowed so stick to images that show off your style while keeping a little to the imagination. 
  2. Never use censored hashtags like #porn #nude. See the full list of banned hashtags on Instagram here:  instavast.com/instagram-banned-hashtags/
  3. Do not use automated programs including bots or anything that auto-follows people, and do not follow other users in bulk. Honesty is key!

Monetize Your Instagram

CAM4 offers a referral program that allows you to make money on any new sign ups that you bring in.

Get your referral link in your My Account section of CAM4, and drop it into a link shortening service like Bit.ly

Customize your Bit.ly link to include your CAM4 username, for example: bit.ly/xkonekox 

Every new member that signs up to CAM4 through your link will  earn you 2$! Discover other ways to make money with the CAM4 affiliate program

 


Share Live Instagram Stories 

Stories allow you to share live moments with geotagging, hashtags, links, and filters.

Post a story when you’re on CAM4 so people can see what they’re missing out on ?always link your CAM4 page or include the URL on  your story.

Here’s an example from CAM4_Official. 

Your story disappears from the feed after 24 hours, but you can post highlights to your profile – here’s an example from Sweet_Girl97:

Social Media 101 with Sammy Strips (Video)

We have started hosting live coaching on Twitter to help you use social media to earn more money! Our first session featured social media & camgirl pro Sammy Strips teaching us the basics of the social media, watch the full video here: 

TWITTER 

1. Keep Your Profile and Cover Images Clean

Performers are able to show more sensitive and R-rated content, but this is not true for every area in Twitter. In your profile picture and your banner you can’t show any nudity, nothing sexy! Keep it SFW. This helps to keep your profile active and away from the dreaded bans. 

2. Keep Twitter Live Streams Clean

The same rules apply to your live broadcasts on Twitter, make sure there’s no nudity. Though this is an awesome way to tease viewers into your shows, it’s not the place to get explicit. 

3. Keep Nudity in Your Posts

Your tweets can include nudity, so you’re free to be as explicit as you want. 

4. Am I Shadowbanned?

Twitter will “shadowban” accounts that violate these rules. This means that your profile won’t appear in searches, making it hard for fans to find you. 

5. Tagging People in Photos

If you’re uploading a picture, click on the “Who’s in this photo?” button and you can tag up to 10 users in the photo. This is a cleaner option than tagging followers in the tweet itself.

6. Use Twitter Analytics!

 If you’re on your desktop on your Twitter profile page, look at “statistics” on the sidebar.  You can get a lot of information about when’s the best time to send your tweets, who’s following you, their interests etc. If you go through that data, you’ll have a better understanding of when you can make money and gain followers.

Why Should I Tweet?

1. Promote yourself! Social media is the cheapest, easiest, and fastest way you can promote your Cam4 shows!

2. More social media followers = more viewers = more money in your pocket. Loyal viewers spend more, and when people know what you’re offering, they can spend more. You can achieve both with Twitter.

3. Reach new fans! How else can you find new people who want what you’ve got? Using Twitter hashtags and the Cam4 social media community you can reach tons of viewers who are looking for you!

4. Interact with existing fans in a whole new way. Extend their Cam4 experience way beyond your shows. It’s a win-win for everyone 😉

Like all good things, you need a billboard to help people find you. Treat social media as your billboard! Tweet from anywhere with your mobile device, and tweet while you’re live from the web.

Ok… I got Twitter… now what?

When I signed up for Twitter, I sat there with an empty news feed and no clue where to start. There’s millions of users, so how do you find the ones who are into you? How do you get people to follow you? It’s not as hard as you think, take a breathe and get started with these easy steps:

1. Share your Cam4 link when you’re live


2. Use hashtags like #tittietuesday #asswednesday and #friskyfriday along with #CAM4 and pics to find new fans. 

 

3. Send @CAM4 a tweet and I will personally help you along the way
**Don’t be scared to show your personality, that’s what viewers love!**



INSTAGRAM

  1. Keep it all Clean!

Everything has to be SFW! Instagram can take down any pictures that are reported as, or are NSFW. Tease viewers, or show off your personality and style. 

2. We Recommend no More Than Bikini Photos

Take some bikini pics and keep them on hand for Instagram. It’s also good to take some seductive pics without any nudity or explicit content.

3. Where Can I Link?

Try not to post links to porn sites in your posts – instead, post your Twitter link so your followers can get links to your cam shows directly there. 

4. Snapchat Takeovers

The best way to get a Snapchat takeover is to send a message to @CAM4 on Twitter and we’ll hook you up! Sammy is booking into December, so let her know! Snapchat takeovers are a great way to get lots of photos and videos so you can post on your personal social media accounts.

Getting Your Posts RT’d by your Cam Company

To get retweeted by a camming platform, there’s some key things you have to do: 

Include your URL – we want followers to click on your links!

Use hashtag (#) or ‘@’ your cam company – #cam4, for example. 

Post a HOT visual! (videos are a huge preference though) People love to see visuals. You can add up to 4 photos in a post.

If you want people on Twitter to watch your live shows, the Twitter picture should show them what that show’s going to be like. Example: if you’re doing a show from your bath tub, take pics/video of you in the tub!

Separate posts if you’re tagging separate cam companies! One post for one site, that way each site has the opportunity to retweet you

PRO TIP: Use videos from your Snapchat to post on Twitter!

Snapchat for Cam Performers (video)

Snapchat is a goldmine for cam performers, here are all of the tips you need to get started like a pro. 

Getting Started

  1. Sign up for an account with a username similar to your camming name.
  2. Review your privacy settings to make sure you’re comfortable.
  3. Download your Snapcode at accounts.snapchat.com and put this on your CAM4 profile, print material for events, and other social media channels.

Psst.. you can watch the full video from cam girl and social media expert Sammy Strips right here: 

 


Posting on Snapchat

Now you’re ready to start posting your best Snaps!

  1.  Snapchat is chronological, so post when you’re online, or shooting some new video content.
  2. Do not post nudity or anything overly sexual, which will put your account at risk of being deleted.
  3. Include a link if you’re promoting your Twitter account or live cam shows.
  4. Share your personality, Snapchat is all about intimacy and letting people connect more with you.
  5. Encourage screenshots, especially of the posts where you include your CAM4 URL, or social media handles, or anything else to help people easily find or remember you. 
  6. Export all of your snaps at the end of each day and use them on Twitter, Instagram, future Snapchat takeovers, Reddit, and all over the internet. You could even upload them to My Shop on CAM4 and give your fans some free videos to taste. 

Monetize Your Snapchat

Cam performers love Snapchat because it’s so easy to make money from this, and with the new Snapchat updates it keeps getting easier!
 
Sell premium Snapchat access from your CAM4 profile

There’s a couple of ways to do this. The easiest is to keep all of your premium members in a Group Chat or create a Group Story. Here’s where you send nudes, post the more scandalous pics, give them that special content they pay for. Even offering Snapchat deals will make your premium fans smile. For example, a 100 or 200 token gift is required to get your premium Snapchat. 

Offer a free Snapchat to all of your fans

You should always have a free Snapchat for your fans, otherwise how will people know that paying for your premium is worth it? Post your updates, CAM4 link, any videos or special deals you’ve got, and show off your personality! Push for your followers to go premium, too. 

Do takeovers!

Finding new followers is really easy when you do takeovers. There are so may cam girl promo accounts on Snapchat that allow girls of all different sites to do takeovers. You can also do a takeover on CAM4Snaps to boost your following. Make sure you pick a day that you’re camming, and offer your Snapchat fans something special if they tip you – like a free video clip. You can find out about these accounts on Twitter, or Snapchat.


How do I get promoted by CAM4 on Snapchat?

CAM4snaps hosts daily takeovers from our performers. DM @CAM4 on Twitter to take advantage of this!

Reddit for Cam Performers (video)

Promoting yourself on Reddit gives you access to thousands of people who are searching for cam performer content. 

Reddit is basically a massive forum where people can discuss pretty much anything. It’s divided up by subreddit, and just for camshows alone there’s over 50 threads you could post on. 

Getting started

It’s so easy to sign up and make your first post that we promise it’ll take you less than 5 minutes. There’s no profile to design, no account info to edit, just make your username and password, and start posting!

  1. Chose a username that’s identical to or similar to your CAM4 name. Short and memorable names will help people remember you, Lala Capri, Lil Jezebel, Aqua Angel are a few examples of this.
  2. Follow threads that are related to your interests or content.

Reddit is hugely different from the other social media platforms we’ve covered, so watch this video from our resident cam girl and social media expert Sammy Strips or keep reading!

 


Posting on Reddit

Now you’re ready to start posting your best content! But, let’s review the guidelines before you begin posting:

  1. You have to wait 7 minutes in between postings
  2. Link to your images and videos via Imgur, ManyVids, PornHub, CAM4, YouTube, etc.
  3. Don’t post content into subreddits that aren’t related
  4. Read all of the rules of each subreddit 
  5. Don’t post the same content on multiple subreddits

Then it’s time to hit up the subreddits for Camgirls: 

r/CamGirl

r/CamGirls

r/CamModels

r/CumSluts

r/camshow

r/camshows

r/fuckmeat

r/girlskissing

r/FapFolders

r/GoneWildCurvy

r/JizzedToThis

r/NSFW_Ass

r/HungryButts

r/CumTributes

This isn’t even the tip of the iceberg. You could spend hours collecting all of the camgirl-related subreddits. Cha-ching!

A word of caution: Reddit is a community and they work hard to keep the content unbiased, helpful, and honest. Always read each thread’s rules and guidelines. For example, some threads require you to message the moderator before posting.

 


 

The best approach is to collect your content and make sure it’s varied – cumshots, lesbian, BDSM, spanking, wearing glasses, tattoos, or cum tributes will enable you to post on the more specific threads. 

Stop by r/CAM4Live and leave us a pic ❤️ And remember, follow our official accounts!

Exposing Yourself On Social Media

Social media is a powerful marketing tool that gives you the tools you need to get more viewers (and turn those viewers into loyal fans).

Good Social Media Practices

Constant Content!

The more you post, the more people see you. Don’t limit yourself to just words! Post pictures and videos if you really want to grab attention.



A Strong Bio

Write a profile that lets people know who you are and what you are about. I know it can be weird writing about yourself, but it makes a big difference.

PRO TIP: When writing about yourself think about your favorite celebrity and ask yourself “What would I want to know about them?”



Start Linking Yourself

Let people know where they can find you. Include your CAM4 URL in every bio and put it in every possible tweet. This makes it easy for viewers to join your room, all they have to do is click on the link!

Eg. cam4.com/cam4coach_en

#Hashtag

Whenever possible, use hashtags (#) on ALL your social media platforms (not just Twitter). Make sure you use the same hashtags on all of your profiles – this connects all your profiles together and makes them easier to search. Use relevant hashtags that have to do with your personality and show.

You should start your own hashtag as well – when you click on a hashtagged word on any social media platform, a list of every post containing that hashtag is pulled up. This will let you see who is using your hashtag and what they are saying. The more its used, the easier it is to find in a search – so use it often!  #CAM4    #livetouch    #hashtagsareawesome!

Promote Your Mentions!

Retweet or Reblog almost everything that is said about you on social media. If you have a blog, Instagram, Snapchat, Tumblr, Twitter, or a Facebook fanpage you need to make sure to share all your profiles on each – you want people to be following you everywhere possible.

When you see you have a new follower, send them a message saying thank you and ask them if they could go through your pics and like the ones that are their favorite. You can get a program that will do this for you to save you work.

Using Twitter Analytics

Being successful means being connected to your fan base, to do this you need to utilize Twitter analytics.

Twitter Analytics

Analytics lets you see every impression, engagement, and engagement rate that is related to your twitter activity. Knowing who your fans are, where they are, and what they like is going to elevate your shows to the next level.

Impression – The number of times your tweet has been seen by Twitter users.

Engagement – The total number of times a user has interacted with a tweet. This includes all clicks anywhere on the tweet (including all hashtags, links, avatar, username, and tweet expansion), retweets, replies, follows, and favorites.

Engagement Rate – The number of engagements (clicks, re-tweets, replies, follows and favorites) divided by the total number of impressions.

Here is where you need to go to get started: https://analytics.twitter.com/about


Tips for using analytics info

Twitter-tweet-dashboard

Tweet Dashboard

  •    Shows you what tweets are getting the most attention
  •    What hashtags are working for you
  •    Pictures that are getting shared and clicked
  •    URL links that are getting attention

Use this to see what content is getting you the most views and edit future tweets to increase your success.


Follower Dashboard

  •    See your follower breakdown by country
  •    Shows you your fan base by what special interests they have (music, modeling, etc.)

Use this info to subtly customize your tweets to the location and interests of your fan base.


Twitter Cards

  •    Allows you to add media (like video) to your tweets and give you better insight as to how your content is being shared
  •    Learn how to improve metrics like URL clicks and retweets

Your followers will LOVE seeing videos of you on twitter and will be more likely to click the URL link you include to take them to your show.
