Top cam model and content creator Honey Martinez explains how to gain 100k followers in 6 months.

“Being successful is all about building your following and posting all the time.“

Exotic performer and creator Honey, who goes by the names of Honey Martinezzz and Honeythemilf, began camming and content creating in 2016.

Honey, from Vancouver Canada, is renowned for her eye-popping curves and adult natured content.

Featuring on many well-known platforms she tempts her fans with videos, live chat and subscription-based offerings.

As an interactive model Honey performs solo and group shows.

She is responsive to the demands of fans for boy-girl and girl-girl videos. These fly on her promotional campaigns which include direct messaging across multiple platforms as well as social media.

Despite previously having had her socials hacked, scammed and wiped out; the follower-hungry Canadian came back with a vengeance.

With her smart self-promotion strategy, the model gained a staggering 100k followers in 6 months.

So Honey, tell us exactly how you did it?

I post a lot on X. I’m active there most days but as a minimum, four times a week.

I am also in RT (retweet) groups which have helped me gain a lot of followers in a short space of time.

X – formally Twitter, is one of the leading platforms for adult creators. There are no restrictions on nature of content and it is easy for sharing and tagging for maximum exposure.

Honey understands what does well on social media and pays attention to detail. By ensuring she puts out nothing but high quality, high definition photos and clips on X, this ensures maximum ‘like’ and retweet potential by fans and promotors.

I find the best content for getting shared is short clips. When I post short clips, like 10 seconds long, these get the most views and retweets.

Tagging large promo accounts helps achieve vast reach on the platform, because of the “RT for RT” etiquette on X.

Promo accounts and creators retweet posts of other creators and the end result is one big cross promotional campaign

All this additional exposure entices more fans to Honey’s profile, and guess what? They all click the follow button!

Promo accounts specific to adult creators have tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of followers. For anybody trying to build a presence on social media in that specific industry, these are useful guys to have on board.

The constant hustle

As with anything you wish to be successful in, to stay on the grind is to keep momentum on track.

Honey tells me it is not always easy to consistent, for example during times of sickness or vacation.

The biggest challenge is taking time out from social media.

The penalty is loss of motivation and the necessity of extra time investing in building back up.

Once you take a long break it is hard to get back into that working habit.

I try my best to push through and stay motivated. It takes a while to get back in the flow.

The Canadian star explains that it is worth it when you discover the valuable fans amongst the masses who just follow to creep on the free content.

There are loads on X who never do anything but amongst them are buyers.

Get as many followers as you can because you never know who will buy your content or do cam shows.

The dark side

There may be potential to monetize genuine fans, but there is a dark side to gaining a massive social media following.

The continual threat of fraudsters out to make a quick buck is a problem that will never go away.

As well as the possibility of financial loss, the integrity and reputation of a well-established model or influencer is at stake.

In 2023, Honey was victim of a textbook catfish scam. She was duped by a follower who claimed to have experience in helping creators build their profiles.

They contacted her through X to offer help to increase her revenue potential. All the while, stealing her content and pocketing profits under a fake profile.

This follower on my X said they wanted to help build my page. I discovered later that the whole time they were pretending to be me on another account they had set up, with content they had stolen from my X.

They were scamming my fans, getting them to pay for stuff they then never got.

You can imagine the headaches this caused when fans were messaging, on my case about stuff I knew nothing about.

It took time to put the record straight and make them understand that it wasn’t me, it was the scammers.

What exactly happened in this case is this: content and video calls were promoted on the fake Honey Martinez profile with payment links to the scammer.

They even hacked into Honey’s legitimate profile, changing her password which made it impossible for her to access it to warn fans about what was going on.

It was so stressful, I reported this to X and got friends and fans to report it also. It took quite a long time to get the fake page taken down.

In the end I went to Cam Model Protection and they got it removed pretty quickly.

Protect yourself on social media

Most models and creators would love to gain 100k in 6 months, just like Honey Martinezzz. We know that engaging fans on socials can boost revenue.

We also know mass exposure attracts the of shady behaviour of catfishers and other scammers.

So if you want to start you own campaign to gain 100k followers in 6 months… protect yourself:

• Watermark all content with your logo, username and/or the name of the site which hosts the content. This way, if it gets stolen, you can prove where it originated from for any copyright claims.
• Do not respond to randoms who claim they will help you build your following or monetize content. In every case these approaches are scams.
• It is best not to follow back everyone who follows, as this enables them easy access to message and be a nuisance.
• Do not open any links that followers attempt to send you via tweet or DM.
• Consider making social media private, and request to follow. While it is less easy to gain mass following this way, it does tighten privacy and security.
• Consider working with a content protection agency to remove any stolen content and impersonation accounts. We recommend Cam Model Protection.
