Camgirls and others in the adult industry are faced with the task of building a following online. Buying Facebook Likes and Twitter followers is one way (albeit a controversial one) to do so. There are pros and cons to this method and this article covers some of them.

PRO: Having an instant large or artificially inflated number of likes and followers can give the perception of success, and make others both see you as an established influencer and be more apt listen to what you have to say as a result.
CON: The accounts used for these services are normally fake accounts that are inactive, and if someone checks to see who actually follows you (which is normally not hard to do) they will see this.
PRO: Everyone loves a party and when there are already a ton of people there it’s a more attractive party to join! You’ll most likely gain more likes and follows if you do this.
CON: Your engagement on your posts is going to be disproportionately low. You’ll have a ton of followers but very little likes, comments, shares, retweets, etc., because most of these accounts aren’t manned by anyone.
PRO: It saves you time. Growing an audience organically TAKES TIME, and work, and content. Buying your following cuts out some of that time.
CON: You’re basically being handed something that you did not earn, so you won’t value it as much.
MY TAKE…
I have not ever used these services where you can buy Facebook likes, Twitter/Instragram or YouTube followers personally. The most similar thing I’ve done is run an ad campaign on Facebook where I paid for followers, but they were real people. The downside of this was in order to get really cheap likes I went to the countries where those likes were cheap, so I ended up with a lot of foreign followers who weren’t really interested in what it was that I had to offer (it was a non-adult page).
So I get it…
But ultimately I think it’s a better long term plan as a camgirl, adult star, adult promoter to build up your following organically, because that’s where your paying customers are going to come from, not a bunch of sock/fake accounts. You’ll also gain more experience and credibility that way.

I hope everyone had a nice weekend. I sure did. Yesterday I went on a long anticipated hiking trip with my best friend. It was an absolute blast. Very tough at times though! It was a 9.5 mile hike and only my second hike ever. The first was 4.4 miles. It was well worth it though. There was an awesome swimming hole so I got to take a dip. First time this busy girl has gotten to go swimming this year and it was in a crystal clear mountain pool. Loved it. The shoes that I wanted which a fan bought me for this trip were just great. I’m very happy with them. Very much looking forward to my next hiking trip. Hopefully I can squeeze one in before the summer is over. Here is a picture of one of the awesome views I got to take in yesterday.

If you tried to come see me on cam Friday night on AdultWork or Streamate you might have been disappointed with my cam quality. I’m not really sure what the problem was, whether it was my internet connection or my webcam, but it got resolved late in the evening. I seemed to have low bandwidth when I did several speedtests so I called the customer service for my ISP and they had me do several things and they reset my connection. It didn’t start to work again until I plugged in my new cam so it could have possibly been my webcam. I really don’t know but I’m expecting it to work fine from now on (hopefully it does).
I’ve really been busy lately, and tired! Trying to get ready for school which starts in less than a month has been stressful. I keep reminding myself that I can do it. I’m a badass! It’s just going to be tough. I’m still a bit behind on my expenses. My rent for this month actually has not been paid yet which blows. I’d really appreciate any help with it and your contribution won’t go unrewarded. If you’d like to contact me to work out a deal I’d be in your debt! I’d just really love to get caught up. I’m accepting contributions on MyGirlFund and any other way I can get money. Help a determined sista out! I also mentioned a pair of shoes that I need for school (I have a uniform I have to wear) in my last post. They’re pricey but will last me a very long time. I’ve put them on my wishlist and if they were gifted to me it would be a lifesaver. I have SO much stuff I have to buy in my first semester it’s nutty.
My cam schedule should be normal this week although I’ve been starting and ending a tad bit late. Might make some permanent adjustments to it soon to accommodate schoolwork, and I plan to actually shoot some new content which I’ve slacked off on for a couple weeks. Hope to play with you soon!

How was your weekend? Mine was lovely. I know it’s already Tuesday, but I made my weekend a long one. Saturday I just kinda hung out and ran some last minute errands for my little one’s birthday party. Hung out at home Saturday night but got pretty drunk. The birthday party Sunday was great! Everyone had nice time.
Thanks for all of the birthday wishes and gifts they were very much appreciated. 🙂
Sunday night I got to catch up with an old friend. She and her boyfriend came over and stayed the night with me. Once again got pretty shitty drunk. Yay! Haha. It’s always great when you get back together with an old friend and it’s like no time ever passed. You just pick up right where you left off. She hadn’t seen Dead Alive yet so I was happy to introduce her to that!
So Saturday and Sunday were my scheduled nights off. My iPhone 4 got here yesterday and I decided it was worth it to dedicate a night off to getting it set up the way I wanted and playing around with it (I know I’m such a geek). I’m very happy that I got it! Since I have the ability to record HD videos or give Skype cam shows from my phone now, I’m thinking I could possibly offer some niche type things, like ‘girl friend experience’ cam shows or videos/fetish clips shot somewhere other than my cam room. If you have any ideas for me feel free to leave them as a comment on this post or contact me.
Speaking of being able to shoot in places other than my cam room, I’ve added a camcorder to my Amazon wish list. If you’re feeling generous, you could buy it for me, or email me a gift card toward the cause (it’s a great cause isn’t it?). I occasionally accept gift cards for cam shows, videos/pic sets, or panties. If that’s what you’d like the card to go toward, just let me know and I’ll save it! The full purchase of the camcorder would certainly call for some serious spoiling from me!
I pretty much got caught up on my sleep this morning finally, so I’m rested and ready to get back to camming! This week I plan to be on 11pm to 3am EST tonight through Thursday night, then again Sunday night. Wednesday I will probably be shooting content mostly but will take Skype shows after I’m done if time allows. Look for me on Streamate and AdultWork, or set up a private Skype show!

I watched this movie Friday night. I can’t believe I had never watched it or heard of it before, Dead Alive. Although it originated in New Zealand and was called Braindead. It’s a Peter Jackson zombie flick! I don’t know which title I like better, hmmm. This is definitely one of the best horror-comedies I’ve ever seen. The blood and gross out factor are perfectly high, and the humor is great. There were several scenes I watched more than once just because they were awesome and done so well. If you haven’t seen this movie, you definitely need to watch it. And if you’ve run out of things to watch instantly on Netflix, this is for you!!

I have my cell phone upgrade coming up and I hadn’t really thought much about what I was going to get until this past weekend. I’ve got an HTC Aria now and I’ve loved it, it’s been great. I just figured I’d see what HTC phones they had and pick the best out of those. I’ve liked using Android I’ve never had any complaints about it. My friend just got an iPhone4 though and oh man, that has got to be the sexiest phone I’ve ever seen. When I started giving skype cam shows to guys on their iPhones I was like, hold up, this is fucking awesome! After holding my friend’s new one and playing with it, I’m sold. I’ll probably wait until after my vacation next month but I’m getting one of those bitches.
I know, I know, the next iPhone is supposed to be coming out in September… but I’m impatient! Which is also the reason why I burnt myself in the tanning bed yesterday.

Can someone please remind me that I’m a fucking redhead? I kept upping my time in the bed every day and the extra 2 minutes yesterday fucking did it. It’s back to 5 minutes at a time for me after this heals! Until then, be sure to stop by and laugh at me while I’m on Streamate. And if you’ve got a sunburn fetish, this is for you!! Haha.
I was really bummed today to hear about Ryan Dunn from Jackass passing away. He died in a car accident early this morning. He was certainly my favorite guys from the group & I feel awful for his friends and family. RIP, Ryan.

I’ve got my trip coming up in less than a month (the reason why I started going to the tanning bed. Didn’t want to burn on vacation…) and I really need to save up spending money! Do you love me and want to help me out but don’t have the funds to at the moment? I get $40 for every sign up here. All you have to do is sign up. It’s free of charge, and you’ll be helping me out a ton! This can get you a free pre-shot video or pic set, or knock of $40 bucks of the price of anything else you’d like from me including cam shows, custom content, & worn panties.
It’s like a coupon for free Rosie goodies! Sign up and take advantage! Let me know after you’ve signed up if you’re interested in content or panties.
If you’d like to make $40 per sign up there too, contact me! You don’t have to be a cam girl, or a girl for that matter.

Okay it’s not really that bad, but I’m hella frustrated. Both my cam and laptop are upgraded now. They’ve actually been working rather well for me, but last night I had some issues recording HD videos. The software that comes with the new Logitech C910 cams automatically compresses 1080p videos when you stop recording. Every time it did this, the software would freeze and I’d have to restart my machine. This happened for 3 out of 4 videos I recorded last night. The last one I recorded, which was the hottest and longest of them all was lost because of this. You can imagine how pissed I am about this! I reinstalled the software and did a test video which seemed to compress fine without freezing. I’m hoping this won’t happen again!
On top of this, I’ve found that the new Windows Live Movie Maker that comes with Windows 7 friggin’ blows. I’m so used to the movie maker that came with XP. The new one is just not as easy to use and is missing features that the old version had. So what did I do to combat this? Downloaded a trial version of Adobe Premier Elements. Good thinkin’ right? Nah, it’s not working right, I can’t see a preview of what I’m editing, plust it sticks a big fat watermark on the video that says “Edited Using Adobe Premier Elements Trial Version” or something like that. Not exactly sexy, haha!
I’ll certainly manage with what I have to work with but it’s like, isn’t this supposed to be easier and more fun now? I guess every upgrade comes with bugs to work through, huh?
Aside from all the frustration, I’ve still got some really hot new content! Just need to edit it. Keep an eye out for it and see what I already have to offer on my MyGirlFund page. I’ll also be adding some pics from last night to the photos page as soon as I can.
I did my first Camwhores show in a couple of weeks last night. It was very much a fun time. You can check it out in the archives, and see me briefly use my way too big dildo!
My hot red heels to go with my Christmas costume came earlier today, and my costume arrived as I was typing this out!! I’ll post a pic of the shoes here, but I’m keeping the costume a surprise for now!
