SOURCE (https://www.theverge.com/2017/8/17/16158834/reddit-video-hosting-uploading-subreddits-gif-tool)


Social news site Reddit today announced the official launch of its video hosting feature, meaning users of certain pre-approved communities can now upload video directly to the site. The feature is already in place as part of a beta testing phase the company began conducting in late June with around 200 existing subreddits. Reddit says it’s now ready to expand the feature to other communities, and that those interested can work directly with site moderators and the company’s video team to enable the feature.

“We wanted to make sure we controlled the video experience, so we built this from the ground up with our in-house team,” says Emon Motamedi, Reddit’s product manager for video. “One of the big motivations of doing this was bringing more cohesion around the content and conversations.”

REDDIT WANTS TO KEEP USERS DISCUSSING AND VIEWING MEDIA FROM LEAVING ITS SITE
Motamedi points to how most videos on Reddit are just YouTube links, or videos chopped up into GIFs hosted by third-party tools like Gfycat. This is usually a cumbersome process, and it’s unfriendly to less media savvy internet users. A bigger problem is that it fractures discussion between where the content is hosted and where a user wants to discuss. Usually, Motamedi says, “you go to YouTube to watch the video and you come back to Reddit to comment.” That’s not ideal. “Because our platform has the best comments on the internet and because it’s such a big use case for our users, we wanted to build that in-house,” he adds.

Reddit’s video tool, which will work both through its mobile app and on desktop, will also have a built-in GIF creation tool. “This speaks to a Reddit philosophy of giving creators the tools to flourish and getting out of the way,” Motamedi says. “Say they record a longer cute video of their dog playing. [A user] can post that entire video to a subreddit, but also go back to the edit flow, create a gif, and post it to another subreddit.”

The goal, Motamedi adds, is to let users tailor videos and GIFs to specific Reddit communities instead of just putting content on a third-party site and linking it, or trying to reach a massive, anonymous audience on a platform like YouTube. “It’s a way to democratize the video creation process,” he says. “Right now, on other sites, a lot of videos are made with a goal of speaking to a large base of subscribers and helping build those subscribers.” With Reddit video, the company hopes it will be mostly original content with a specific theme or subject matter, be it a video game highlight or cute pet GIF. The limits in place at launch will be 15-minute videos with a 1GB file size, with GIFs no longer than one minute.

REDDIT IS USING THREE DIFFERENT TEAMS TO ENSURE COPYRIGHT AND SAFETY RULES AREN’T VIOLATED
On the topic of moderation, Reddit says it’s taking all the lessons it has learned from introducing image hosting earlier this year, as well as adopting policies the team has found successful on other video hosting sites. To that end, Reddit says three different teams will work together to cut down on violations like posting copyrighted content and uploading video that violates its online safety guidelines. One is the community team that works with subreddit moderators to keep behavior within specific communities in line. The second is a trust and safety team that works exclusively to enforce Reddit’s site-wide rules.

The third team is what Alex Le, Reddit’s vice president of product, calls the “anti-evil” team. “They build tools software and models to predict abuse where it might happen and make sure we can be inoculated against future issues and be ahead of them when possible,” Le says. The most important factor here, however, will be which subreddits are granted the ability to host videos. “When it comes to the actual communities, we’ve been deliberate to roll it out to distinct communities,” Le says.

As for how that process will evolve in the future, when video becomes more commonplace on Reddit, Motamedia says the company is weighing its options. Reddit is considering an application process or some sort of systemized auto-enrolling approach that involves careful input from the trust and safety team. For now, the company has a list of subreddits its ready to bring into the video program on a rolling basis.

Curious question, on instagram do you guys normally ignore all DM's? Or see what they are messaging for first? I usually just get guys who say hello and nothing else (which doesn't bother me) but some think I want to see their cock or sexy talk for free or meet up and fuck. Still trying to find a good way to steer them towards paying, but it might be a lost cause.

^^ I don't think you need to be too coy about steering them to pay. A sample conversation:

Him: hey
You: Hey, sexy! How's it going?
Him: good hru
You: I'm great! Want to get dirty on cam with me?
Him: hell yeah
You: Awesome! You can see my rates and what I offer at [profile link]. I can't wait to see you in private/play with you on Skype/have fun with you when I'm online, which will probably be [whenever you plan on camming next]

Any followup with that can just turn back to "Yes, I'd love to during our show!" Or whatever you say when guys ask you shit in free chat.
Want to see my dick? I'd love to see you stroking it for me on cam2cam!
Do you like roleplay? Cant wait to do a sexy one with you during our show!
What's your favorite position? I'll show you when we're on cam! ;)
Etc...

Too many questions = no answer because, oops, I suddenly had shit to do with my life. So... sorry, I guess you'll have to cum see me on cam!

OK guys so I've been working on my new twitter and insta for 5 days now and I have around 475 followers on each. I think that's good, it's an awful lot of posting, following people, interacting etc though ugh. My periscope seems to be getting popular and the last broadcast had nearly 600 viewers! I want to know how i can utilise periscope more - any tips? Also fan signs/vids - to every promoter, or just a select few? Best accounts to ask to do a snapchat takeover of? Have had some sales already off insta, so please please please any insta tips VERY gratefully received :D

Using different devices I've found to be the easiest. Like a laptop and a tablet. Or phone and tablet. Whatever you have available and if video streaming is available from a desktop or not.

Is it just me orrrrr... Do yall happen to get a shit load of spambots? Like all of my followers are somehow either fake freeloading subs, pirated porn accounts, Abrabic dudes (LOTS), and random black dudes??? Like how did I get that? I was almost to 500 followers but... Tbh I'd rather have 45 real followers than 500+ freeloaders and bots. How do you get quality dudes looking to follow and pay for some porn god damn? It's like trying to find a needle in a haystack. 😂 Plus follower counts are just a vanity metric tbh I really don't care as much as when I first started Twitter.

I have a quick question. If I already have a twitter / fb / snapchat / instagram on my phone and I create new ones to use only for camming, will my friends and contacts see my new camming account pop up as a "suggestion"? I could have sworn I read somewhere that this does happen... If so, do you ladies know for which social networking sites his does happen and for which it does not happen?

Thanks in advance!

I would not use FB for adult on the same phone as your mainstream lifestyle. In fact I wouldn't even use it on a desktop in the same browser. I don't think anyone should use FB on the phones for adult or mainstream. As for the rest you can toggle back and forth between different twitter and Instagram accounts. I've never had any problems. For snapchat I think it may be a different story. You may want to look into getting a second phone if you're really worried. I now have two phones but mostly because I manage and operate more than the allotted amount per device. One major tip I can provide for people who want to avoid outing themselves is to not sign up for social media via your phone. Do it on a desktop first. And if later on you're prompted to enter a phone number (sometimes Insta forces it) use a google voice number.

^^There's a hack for not getting "suggested" on FB, but it's pretty extreme if you really enjoy using it. You need to set your account so that your answer for "who can add me as a friend" is "nobody". If you can't be added, you don't get suggested.

Personally, this suits me fine, because I'm an antisocial cow, and am happy with the friends I already have, but see for yourself.

It's still best not to use FB on your work phone though.

Look at models on twitter and see who they mention, then do some cross research. But you still have to make sure your content is interesting in order to get retweeted. Some will only retweet models who are only on a specific site. Like cb, affiliates love cb. Some wont retweet if you include a ton of other mentions in the same tweet. It also works when you make friends with a few and give them watermarked pics directly. This way they can upload you images to something like tweetdeck or hootesuit.

Sometimes they don't always retweet me either. But what I've found that works best is to send some of them direct messages and ask if I can give them pics to make it easier? There are retweeters for everyone. Also I've seen more and more cammodels creating retweet groups or accounts. Not to snuff the affiliates but we can get it done a lot better sometimes because we know how to target a group. Many of them have blogs'vlogs/podcast ect that you can feature on and so forth.

12-21-2017, 03:29 AM
My issue with some of the retweet groups is many of them dont follow back. I ended up getting spammed by none followers. Also Im careful not to retweet those who show a lot of nudity. I have several accounts set up for twitter business and I dont want to lose that.

Is there an idiot's guide to promoter etiquette somewhere? Like, are you meant to say hello to them and make friends, or just mention them, or whatever? Some have a clear "do this to get promoted" in their bio, but with others it's totally not clear whether they're one person, several people, or what.

ETA: I love twitter to build loyalty with existing clients, but as a tool to make new ones it just makes me want to smash things.

sexysusie
12-21-2017, 11:29 AM
Just mention them and be polite - if they're not rt'ING you check if there's something they need you to do like send them pics direct or include a specific hashtag etc. Don't bombard them multiple times per day. If any seem to be particularly keen on rt'ING and mentioning you, be good to them, send a thank you dm, write them a fan sign :)

Its a marketing tool designed to give insights on your Instagram traffic. I didn't know they had dummy profiles set up online however? But there are lots of "fake" Instagrams that use the same api showing peoples profile stats. It's sorta similar to how camsites have whitelabels. They all look different but the content is the same. Also with the Insta replicas profiles that are private on Instagram show up on the duplicates. Nothing is ever really private.

I got that email too but when I checked my accounts safe mode is still turned off. The email kinda read like they were making it go back to a default. Maybe they'll do it in the next couple of weeks and are counting on people not remembering to check? I love tumblr. I'm gonna set an alert to remind me to check in a week from now.

I'm just wondering how many of you girls utilize social media, the likes of Twitter/Instagram/Snapchat/Tumblr, because it actually contributes to traffic/earnings? I'm not a big fan of social media and find myself trying to remember to use it but I know its potentially a big aspect of this job. I'm trying to figure out whether its worth it to use them all or for instance, give up Twitter and just use Snapchat or to give it all up all together and how that would affect my camming.

I started working hard on my social media about a month ago and now get ModelCentro signups from my instagram (and even a custom order) and just got an hour block session with tips from a guy who said he loved my tumblr.

Switter is doing well. I'm still not sure if it will take the place of Twitter but it's still evolving. Right now it's mostly performers communicating with one another. There aren't enough customers on there...yet. There are also some haters lurking in the distance because they can't monetize the platform and are actively trying to scare people into not using it. You can link your twitter to switter so that your tweets become toots on Switter. LMAO I don't know how any developer kept a straight face while designing something called toots? :)

Just got a year long subscription to my ModelCentro from a guy who still wants to get shows on SM too from Instagram. I'm posting 2 times a day and responding to DM's (unless it gets rude or turns into a dick pic lol) I do a few fan signs for promo accounts each day as well, and have stopped worrying about shadow banned tags and have just tried whatever creative tags come to mind.

For Tumblr I'm posting 3 times a day a variety of things such as text, short videos, photos and reblogs. Videos do really well for me, especially if I talk.

Insta seems to HATE FanCentro though and won't let me link to it at all. Any one else having that problem?

Well that is something! I do remember some of my rebrandly links not working from time to time? Now I only use domain names. I suppose Fancentro has been added to the list of banned urls. I wonder if Onlyfans is banned too? Maybe you can add the url as a watermark to your pics, but even then Instagrm has technology that can read watermarks. But I'm not sure if they go as far as to ban specific ones?

Months ago I had checked it and it would rank 1 or 2 under the keywords for my name (hayden blue or misshaydenblue) Now it’s just gone?

I haven’t done anything to my site except for uploading content.

I’m stumped at what to do and would love any input / help with how to fix this.

Should I buy a new domain and link it to my members site?

Is my HaydenBlue.com domain fucked in google ranks even if I switch it away from a members site and turn it into a blog? (my original plan anyway, just haven’t gotten around to it)

If my clip descriptions are all the same on every site could that be something that is severely penalizing me in google / and my members site?

I’m so confused lol.

I just checked for hayden blue and misshaydenblue and no you do not appear on google's first page. It wasn't until the third page did hayden blue bbw or bbw hayden blue appear for your haydenblue.com site. Everything else was c4s etc.

I spoke to another model recently who needed help getting her site rankings up because she too uses ModelCentro and had a difficult time getting that done. And she's extremely popular and I could not understand why her name wouldn't appear at the top? She's got all of the other things driving traffic to her site just like you but still she's no where to be found.

So Hayden for you I was able to check your stats and the majority of your backlinks are "no follow". That means they don't have any real value. And the majority of your indexed pages are referred by "no follow" backlinks. If you or someone else placed your .com links on link directory sites then you may have been penalized for that. Using those can be risky. That's one theory OR it could be that MC is has fallen out of googles good favor. Also it looks like the traffic to your site swings up and down very sharply. That shouldn't be happening because usually a drop off that steep is due to changes in the algorithms used by the search engines. It kinda looks like google is fucking with you.

I know that MC recently added on some tools for search engine optimization, however I don't know how well that's working out? Get together with some other MC models and see what they have to say about their own rankings. It may be time to switch over to a different option so you can have more control over what happens.

The only SEO tool I see in my modelcentro is a section where you can edit all your meta data. There's also a section in apps where you can add your google analytics and webmaster tools. (as a weird aside, it looks like some fake "free password" site is linking to me a lot. all these randomized passwords with no username and a "oh if those don't work, use this discount link" lmao)

Mine seems to show up as the second result when I search for it under Naomi Courtney.
