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!
