Anyone?
I've started promoting on Inraptured.com. Seems like a legit place.

Hey everyone, long time since I been here haha x I didn’t wanna start a new thread so I thought I’d ask here.

How to get exposure in online market? I am considering paid Instagram promotions even but does anyone run it professionally? I thought about uploading snippets onto pornhub but really struggling to go anywhere, hashtags are useless at this point. I came to struggle cause I never cared to build social media while I was escorting (big mistake...) and the web is really so saturated with content.

Do any of you girls have any good tips on how to build online following? Would streaming sites be any good? Any that allow you to promote your insta or snap.

Thank you x

Right now I'm posting daily to instagram, twitter, snapchat and bdsmlr. I'm adding sidedaddy and sharesome this week. On tube sites I've been loading to pornhub regularly but am getting verified on xvideos and xhamster. Going to test all these for about 3 months and see what works. I do get my share of freeloaders but the money is really making it worth it.

I might consider discord and reddit after I get these going.

As far as pure traffic, yes. I've gotten about 25 new followers in the couple of days I've posted on there. I use it entirely as a blogging platform, with a link to my stuff. I'm planning on filtering in "hey buy this hot video, I loved filming it" randomly this week and seeing if I can convert. You'll get some dm's naturally but I always see those as great opportunities to sell.

I had a weird turn of events where I accidentally posted my non-nude content to what I thought was my fan club on pornhub. I figured no big deal since its so cheap and left it at that. I got so many friend requests after they went live that I got a little confused until someone commented on one video. I discovered they were public.

1 - I am definitely posting all of my dumb yet sexy stuff I've saved for safe for work social to pornhub daily now.

2 - Thank the Dark Lord Saban I didn't post content I wanted people to pay for.

Is it just me or do twitter promoters refuse to rt anymore? My twitter was shut down so i made a new one and after a month I'm still only at 130 ish followers. I did a few posts tagging the old promoters i used to use and nothing, i even dm'd some of them and got no response. Twitter was always hard going but it seems impossible now.

Do you tweet every time you're available for cam? Or would it be too spammy (I cam twice a day, morning and evening).

I know there are people who tweet things like 10+ times a day but I'm so bad at social media, I tweet like once a week about something funny I experienced or a sexy photo. I'm worried if I tweet my cam status twice a day guys will think I'm spammy or that I'm only there to push shows.

BUT, I don't really promote my indy Skype often (guys will just stumble upon it through my site) and I do want more indy Skype customers.

I also cam on Streamate and the guys who know me there can stay there, I don't want them to move over to Skype. I like having both Streamate and indy regs.

^I never tweet when I’m online, in fact I never tweet at all, and most of my Twitter followers are from MFC but after recently changing my Streamate name to match my Twitter ID at least some people have found me from that base. I only use Twitter as a way to message me offsite.

I never post pictures anywhere or do any self-promotion of any kind and I do often wonder if I actually tweeted regularly or posted on Reddit would it actually bring in more revenue? I don’t even put my cammodels link on my Twitter as I don’t want any MFC ppl stalking my safe space, I am such a bad bad cam girl in this way. I pretty much depend on live cam for visibility and that’s it... my cam score is pretty high on MFC so I don’t really need to worry about traffic there but I would really LOVE to figure out a way to bring in more traffic to SM which is my current main site!

Minibagel, I am and always have been very similar as far as not self-promoting through various social media. When I started this line of work, I was enrolled at a Christian college and had to keep things hush-hush if I expected to keep my dorm. Then, I had a full-time vanilla job. I only cam now thanks to Coronavirus. What I've found is that even though I totally missed the boat on social media (IG, Facebook, Twitter, and the like) Discord, namely the Pornhub Discord and any Discord dedicated to specific fetishes is where it's at should anyone choose to self-promote. My favorite way to make a quick buck from Discord was to always have links to my IndieBill store, when IndieBill was still a thing, and have the guys buy my content that way. A lot of Discord users are insistent on using PayPal and other iffy payment processors that don't like sex workers too much, so it's... well, it'll be difficult to establish a reliable client base quickly advertising on Discord -unless you're willing to risk it. I find getting guys into my live shows via Discord is like pulling teeth, though it is possible to sell and perform pvt shows over Discord. I have had one hell of a time getting mainstream social media to work for me thanks to shadow banning and trolls, so I've given up on that. Has anyone out there tried Tick-Tock? I almost feel it isn't worth it since I can't imagine it being too far from IG in terms of shadow banning and opening the flood gates to freeloaders and assholes. I'm also thinking of reviving my PornHub model account so I can promote on there, too. How does everyone feel about using PornHub to gain recognition? I had temporarily stepped away from camming just as PornHub rolled out its model affiliate program. Also, I just checked out Sharesome thanks to the above posters and I am so trying this! If it brings me any luck, I'll definitely update.

^Seems like TikTok is a major tool for OF creators to bring in a lot of new traffic & fans. Toning things down a bit so it's SFW is necessary to avoid being shadowbanned!

I am personally not on TikTok, IG, OF, anything at all except adult platforms and since I am mostly on Streamate for now I have super low visibility on the internet overall, hardly anyone sees me and I basically don't exist haha :)

I heard twitter did a major change and promoting retweeting services or something is bannable now. I think my twitter got banned because I posted a cute pic (non-nude) and my caption was "Retweet if you fapped to me!". Of course they didn't tell me why I was banned but after speaking with friends they said that was probably the reason.

The general rule of them is 80/20 - at least 80% of your content needs to be non-selling, and 20 is your sales stuff - though the more crafty and indirect the better.

Does anyone have experience with blending vanilla content with nsfw. For example, in real life everyone knows I’m a camho/content creator. I would like to use TikTok/YouTube for some vanilla stuff, but also have some cookie trail to my nsfw content. This is to be able to have the option to monetize YT and comply with TikTok ‘s double standard ass rules. Would one make a separate channel that talks a bit about your nsfw and mention it briefly on your vanilla? Just not mention it and let the pervs figure it out?

I don't know where to post this question, so I will do it here: does anyone have any experience with the new (well, I just saw it) Tips option from Twitter? I am doing only domination, so I think it would be a great option for my submissives to send me tips, but I don't know? I don't trust Twitter with anything sexually related (they closed my account once in the past, but I was doing vanilla then).

she said she’s thick skinned but even she says she cries n stuff.

She’s also making mega money mind, but still, shit like that every day would send me over the edge. How did you learn how to use it? Is it just lots of dances n stuff?

Yes there is no geoblocking option and you will be more likely recommended to people in your region. It's hit or miss. It pretty much doesn't work right with a VPN

My issue with TikTok is the quality of the male audience. I’m a domme (mainly findom) so the kind of guys I want are wealthy, Business men, usually 35+ I don’t think those men reside on TikTok. More like spotty 18 year olds on university money.
Or have I got the wrong perception?

I’ll answer all the questions in a single post.

1) Yes, TikTok is geobased. It shows content based on your IP and sim. But you can easily bypass that with an American SIM card ($4 on Amazon) and a VPN used 24/7 or even a vpn router in your house. This method works, I currently have over 5 accounts I’m growing this way. The down side is you’ll need separate phones, just buy a cheap android or use your old phone. I recommend max 3 accounts per phone. I have 4 phones in my house just for TikTok. I know girls that have 10+ phones.

2) I’m close to 30, so def not the Gen Z generation. Do I get hate about it? Yes, but I get hate about everything. I use that for my benefit. How? TikTok will push clips that have a lot of engagement. Hate it’s engagement, so basically, my haters help me go viral. None of the hate bothers me, I’m just cold and know nobody of those men or women have any clue about what they are talking. Most I get called it’s “mid”, which means “mediocre” and I always clap back and ask if that’s their most creative insult, cause everybody uses it. At least, call me a walking stick or anything funny. You def need to be grounded so you can get past the insults. I never cry cause of it. I only cry if my clips don’t get views, lol. My latest viral clip has close to 1K hateful comments, still it made me over 400 subscribers (around $3.5K). Who lost? Not me, I got the money, they got the rage. XD

3) The way I see it, everyone uses TikTok, from kids to grandpas. I doubt rich people don’t scroll the app, cause they def do. It’s up to you to find the right audience.

4) Why TikTok, tho? Think about a different social media that can get you viral overnight (1-2-3M views). There is none!!! TikTok is the most organic app, so use it in your benefit while it’s still around. In 6months, I never gotten viral on IG or Twitter and I posted a lot in my first months, on TikTok, I got viral after 1month of consistency.

5) The only real downside to it are the rules, very strict. I’ve had tons of videos removed and never reinstated, I got temporary bans, I had profile bans. So treat TikTok accounts as socks and have multiple ones on hand for backups.

I wish you the greatest earnings and I hope I will get to do this as well, once I get past my insecurities regarding the way I look and I start making content :))))) I used to do well on IWC and AVNStars, but I abandoned once I gained 10 lbs and started feeling unatractive. Oh well... gonna get back at it eventually :))

My advice would be “just do it”. Starting its enough, test the water and build habits around it. Social media it’s more about showing up daily, than massive efforts, def the work smarter, not harder attitude.

For me, I started liking and replying to safe non adult threads but threads where a lot of men would hang out. Like cars, toy companies (adult but not like...a site FOR adult content) on twitter and it seems that I have gained five new followers in the last couple days. Twitter is very hard for me and PSO's as we don't use our own photos. But I see a lot of models who do use their own content who are into more than just PSO and I think they should have more likes and followers.

Twitter is hard. All I know is my model has nice big boobs so the big boob pages have retweeted me a couple times in the past few weeks. It's a hard sell. Even my company I think has abandoned Twitter for the most part.

I see a lot of moms on tictoc doing vids. My concern with ultra adult material on there is that the audience is vanilla. And I wouldn't want people who aren't into adult finding it. But if you do some teasing stuff and then advertise your page...I mean that's what I would do if I were on TicToc but I get really worried when I venture outside of the adult world and putting adult things out there. I do think tictoc has a lot of people who either cannot afford us or isn't even old enough to afford us......IDK. I mean it shows up on my FB lol.

Is hard to reach organic traffic on Twitter. In over 7 years of having an account there, I never got viral with a post. It only works for me if I do retweet groups, which is a lot of grind, but constant gains.

Unfortunately, when you want to reach people that know you, in means of going viral, you have to take the risk of not being able to monetize the majority of them. My trick for keeping kids away is liking and scrolling exclusively on pages for adults, cooking, mental health, jokes, pranks. After some scrolling, Tiktok will see what you like and customize your FYP.

Plus, you can always block any kids you see comment on your posts, to show the algorithm you’re not interested in that sort of audience. So far, all my Tiktok accounts have 90% men as following and I’ve been able to monetize all my trending clips.

No need to activate it. TikTok reads the IMEI of each card, which is an unique code for every sim. You don’t actually need service. I haven’t activated any of mine. I associate my SIM cards with VPN, for the best results.
I hit 70% US, rest are divided almost equally between UK, Canada, Australia, Germany and sometimes another European country.

There are multiple ways you can convert people from Tiktok.
1) link your IG (have in your IG bio a linktree/milkshake/or anything else)
2) write your IG/Twitter username in the Tiktok bio
3) write your IG/Twitter username in the comments of each video

Some just use Twitter, some just use IG. I use them all, lol. If you decide to mention your Twitter, make sure you’re not search banned.

(I advise against having a linktree/beacons in the Tiktok bio, that will get you in trouble, I’ve gotten banned for it once)

Not at all, tried and tested on over 10 accounts. That $4 SIM card + Surfshark VPN (set 24/7) does the magic trick for me. That way, you bypass the system using 2 methods, which gives you a strong US reach.

Ofc, sometimes things can get messed up. I had a couple videos pop in South Africa or Maldives for exemple, but those are exceptions, not the rule.

I don't know how to use a VPN on phone. Do you simply install the app and enable it? Or does it have to be enabled in the TIkTok app?

Sorry I am dumb, I am gathering info to make a plan and maximize my start hahaha.

euro_princess
06-16-2022, 04:53 PM
Most VPN apps have specific settings to keep your fake IP running all the time. For example, in Surfshark, they are called “Auto-connect” (you pick a favorite location, I have mines set for biggest cities in US; and as soon as I turn my Wi-Fi on, it’s going to connect with that chosen IP) and “Kill switch” (which means as soon as you stop the VPN, your internet will be disabled).
Ofc, there are going to be a few milliseconds on your real IP, from the moment your internet goes on and until it connects to the VPN, but that’s why I pair it with an US sim. Plus, as long as you don’t turn off the internet or your phone, it’s going to stay connected for days.

Unfortunately, you can’t run this method on your personal phone, for obvious reasons. Plus, Tiktok is quite sketchy with the way they use your info, better to have all the thirst traps on a fake profile.

One more question. Let's say I have 5 phones. Do I have to make 5 different accounts on the vpn service and pay 5 subscriptions, or I can connect all the phones with one username/ subscription?

Depends on the VPN. Surfshark has unlimited devices, while NordVPN has a max of 6 devices. That’s another reason why I use Surfshark.
