I feel that with how much I make per hour, I should be making a lot more daily/weekly. But I can usually only cam for about 3 hours before I start to get really worn out.

I'm trying some new toys in different materials to see if that helps. And I'm also trying to think of more soft core shows I can do to fill in time between my cum shows.


Not to hijack this thread but…How do you girls do it? I mean, cam for 6-8 hours a day? My vagina could not handle it. Or at least couldn't handle it 2 days in a row. So what's your secret?

Glass dildos and coconut oil.

I am brand new. I've been working for about a week. I only use Streamate. I don't have the HD encoder. I work about 3 - 5 hours each night. So far I've earnt $50 tops a night. That's my nightly goal. :)

I hope to earn more once I get better net for the HD encoder and of course Gold Shows.

Money varies in this biz. One day $300, the other $10 lol

My income is inconsistent -

One night I will make 400 dollars doing 3 hours...
the next night I will make 30 dollars...

Most nights I average around 150 dollars in 3 hours on MFC. My camscore is average and I don't go on enough.

Interesting thread. I was curious to see if revenues have dipped for any Streamate hosts, specifically. I suppose the norm would be to leave when that happens and move on to another site.
I started on Streamate a year and a half ago, not long after leaving iFriends over a financial dispute and some rather creepy looking figures in my revenue stats. I did very well on Streamate at first. I won't share dollar figures with anyone but let's just say my traffic and revenues have dived, coincidentally, right along with how their traffic have, according to Internet Stats' charts listed from Alexa and Compete. When Streamate's traffic dove, so did mine, as did my earnings. They told me that there are hundreds of outide sites driving traffic into the platform, but then wouldn't have count toward 'their' traffic? I'll go with giving them the benefit of the doubt but then it still doesn't make sense. Why are my earnings showing the exact same path as their traffic declines? Everything else is the same. My listing is on the top 2 rows, pretty consistently (though often members will tell me they are seeing me on row 3,4,5). Often I start near the middle of the page but then slowly (after about 10 periodical refreshes) move back up toward the top and then remain there. I charge the same rate, offer the Gold Show (I like the fact that it allows us to toy with our rates, without waiting for our rate change to be approved by the site).

Not to stray too far from the topic --- but has anyone else noticed their traffic declining big time on Streamate lately or the traffic just doesn't seem to want to pony up for shows anymore, not even Gold Shows?

Streamate has issues. A lot of them. Phone not working, not showing up so guys aren't able to see me when I'm streaming, HD encoder crashing for no reason, not displaying me in HD when I've only ever streamed in HD and have all the settings correct + high speed internet... Now that I have my new dailypay account, a lot of the issues have been resolved.

I hardly ever make money with gold shows. But I get privates. But the percentage streamate pays us is not really worth it because I could make way more on any other site for the same amount of time. If you're a girl who gets a lot of traffic, SM just is not that worth it unless you split with it.

The reason the traffic has significantly dropped is because, while SM's $$$ may be increasing, there is a HUGE influx of girls so that $$$ becomes more & more divided. Its not a site I'd rely on for a long time because I see it bottoming out in less than a year. It'll become the new MFC where top girls make money and non-top girls don't make much at all.

Well I'll still continue to vouche that SM is worth it. I make more and more on there week after week. $365 in 3 and a half hours last night. Mostly gold shows (which I MUCH prefer).

I haven't seen my earnings do anything but increase, so.... again... I think it depends on the individual.

I have to be on the side of streammate..I dont get a lot of traffic, but it's PAYING traffic. I never put more than an hour or 2 at a time into it (no patience for that style), but I get a lot of exclusives when I do with a rate set almost as high as SM will allow me to go..

SM has been an amazing fallback as MFC has completely crapped out on me this month.

I can see that traffic has dropped a lot in the last year. Thank goodness for regulars...I don't think I would do as well if I were just starting out right now.

I totally get the traffic stats on the streamate site..but when I see the first full row of girls and 4 out of the 5 girls in that row are complaining cause there rooms have 4 to 5 guys in there but the first girl in the row has 85 guys in her room..and she's doing a full on naked gold show countdown bangin her dildo and full on shot from the side..telling the boys to join the gold show but yet she not hitting her goal and continues to reset her gold show timer. I don't know..makes me think it's the roll out of the gold shows or too much nudity and almost going into the show before the show actually takes place.. Maybe I'm wrong but this is a fact..I watched the first row of girls the other night..also, those other 4 girls were not nude..2 were doing basic chat and one was doing a gold show..I'm seeing the traffic die down too :( but yep, thank god for my regulars..but yea, I am having to work harder for the same amount I used to make and there's ALOT more beggars since gold shows rolled out..ugh I hate the beggars..I've been doing alot more banning. Sorry Amanda :( I'm right there with u girl :(

Streamate is my first camming job been doing it since Aug 28th of this year. I have tried to make a schedule but I never stick to it. I do see alot of my regulars still come on from time to time. What i have found that boosts my income when I think Im not gonna make much are the weirdos that want me to lay in stockings or do exercises in shorts and a thong for example. They stay on anywhere from 20 minutes or more in a private session which I charge $4.99 for $3.99 for exclusive (I haven't emailed streamate to up my rates yet). SO far since i have been getting th hang of things the first is my lowest paycheck and the $967 is my highest. I usually average somewhere in between these 2 per week depending on if i have had my period or even just not in the mood. I have found myself usually taking off Sundays for football with my boyfriend and his friends. And on mondays he and I go out usually shopping, tanning afternoon lunch etc.

I'm gonna agree with Sarah. I've earn pretty consistently. I don't think I've ever had a day where I didn't average at least $30/hr. I mean, I'm not happy with $30/hr but it's sure beats minimum wage. And my other days usually balance out my shitty days. It's true that when I was doing gold shows while it was still in beta testing, it was a lot easier to make my goal. Now I usually have to start it over at least once. But about 90% or more of my money is made in Gold shows. Other than that, I only offer exclusives now and I feel like the exclusive shows I do now tend to last a lot longer than any of my premium chats.

How much are SM girls with no HD Encoder taking home? (If happy disclosing that information, of course!)

And for those who have switched from no encoder to encoder, how much did you find that impacted your earnings?

My traffic tends to vary quite a bit.

After I removed geo-restrictions, things got better. The traffic seems to be more lop-sided than consistent these days tho. I'll make almost nothing one day then the next day rocks. Like $150 one day and $600 the next day.

I don't do gold shows anymore. I may do some this weekend and see how it goes, but I wasn't making much money with them. The guys all say they want them, but they don't want them so they can pay me and see the show. They just think I'm gonna give it up in the countdown. When they find out I'm not gonna, they leave.

I make a lot more now than when I started a year ago. But the holiday season is coming up, and I think I'll take the week before Christmas off. It was hell last year. Tho I'm sure some people will do fine then.

I think it all just depends on who you are. I get a lot more shows than I used to, but the shows are shorter than they used to be. I have some regulars who come in almost every day, but for the most part, guys seem to think it's ok to pull me in for a 52 second show or a 2 minute show then leave. That shit is annoying. But the exclusive shows tend to be longer.

When I cammed, it would usually vary between $30 and $100 per hour.

Rosemary Rabbit

It depends for me. I will say that if I put the effort into it I make anywhere between 50-100$/hr. If I don't hustle, it's between 30-40$. I play on SM (which I, too, love!), but of course these results can vary!

I'm sorry to necro this thread but this is educational as hell... and, er personal / sentimental. ;p
I am training myself to be kinder to me.


I am brand new. I've been working for about a week. I only use Streamate. I don't have the HD encoder. I work about 3 - 5 hours each night. So far I've earnt $50 tops a night. That's my nightly goal. :)

I hope to earn more once I get better net for the HD encoder and of course Gold Shows.


Dear Me of the past...

$50 a night hmm? For 3 - 5 hours? Some day you'll be rocking up to $400+ a day. <3
Bet you never thought of that did you?

You got what you wanted hun, and more.

~ You.

I'm glad no one told me that camming wasn't for me when I started out like this. Or if they did (because someone might have, but I just didn't hear them over my ambition), that I didn't listen to them.

I won't say what I make per week because no week is the same.. but I average anywhere from 3500-5000 a month.. If the month is a super good high traffic month I make more than that. And If i shut up and smile more I am sure i'll make more money.. Currently I am working on fine tuning MYSELF particularly when I am on cam.. but as far as hours go?? I work usually 40 hours a week.. sometimes more or less but around there.

GOALS: $100/day, $1000/week, $4000/month, 8 hours/day, 56 hours/week.

Realistically: $150/day, $900/week, $3500/month, 4 hours/day, 25 hours/week


If I hit my hourly goals I normally make $300 in a day, but I just haven't been up to it lately. Maybe I'm too pregnant for my 60 hour weeks.

Sixty hours is a LOT per week to cam, even for a non-pregnant person!! This job takes a lot out of you mentally and physically depending on what you do. And 60 hours a week is a lot of hours even in a 'nilla job. I know people who work 50-60 or so hour weeks at desk jobs and are simply exhausted constantly, so I commend you for working that much.

I'm honestly PRETTY close to you, drearea... I like that format so I'll use it...I work 5 day weeks normally though so..

Goals: $250/day, $1250/week, $5,000/month, 6 hours/day, 30 hours/week

Reality: $150-225/day, $1000/week, ~$4000/month, 3-5 hours/day, ~20 hours/week

I know I can do more, but with my anxiety and my living situation (roomie is ALMOST out!) and all the health stuff I'm trying to get figured out, I get pretty exhausted fairly easily. I'm happy with what I make, and in time I make it. I'm extremely glad I made this industry work for me to the degree it has because it's an excellent option for someone with chronic health issues.

I try to aim for $200/day, which takes about 2-4 hours depending on how busy it is. When I actually have the time & the motivation I'll try to hit $400-$500 but those days are rare now with a demanding baby. =P

07-31-2012, 11:08 AM
I'm doing the same as I was when I started, $30/ hour slow day and $70/hour on a great day. Totally beats mininum wage. I don't even charge that much and i hardly do gold shows because I love exclusives way more. Never felt the need to ask SM to open up the $5 + prices to me either. My daily goal is $100. Weekly $300 to $700. This is not my full time job.

Hi everyone, it been really helpful reading all your posts, even if some are a bit 'old' lol.

Me and my hubby are just in the process of signing up to SM, we have a kind of idea of what we would like to earn, but due to commitments (work and kids) our time is very limited, so I was wondering if you guys thought this was an achievable goal.

I think we would probably manage realistically 2-3 hours 4 times a week, so probably about 10 hours a week. We would like to earn about $450 a week, so an average of $45 an hour. Does anyone think this is achievable as a couple (obviously once we get into it and aren't newbies anymore) or am I being a bit unrealistic?

Thanks :) xxx

I always worry about posts like this coming across as arrogant or egotistical, but I strongly believe that finding exactly what motivates you the most - what attitude it is, and what behaviors to undertake that actually gives you that extra kick up the ass to better yourself (whether it is sticking notes on your monitor of your daily goals, sticking notes on your mirror about how gorgeous you are and how much $$$$ you deserve to make, this, or whatever it is for YOU) - is actually just as important as finding out what it is, in and of itself, (your niche, what site, your setup, etc), that makes you the best money in the first place...

To actually see myself talk about $50 a night... For me now, it is shocking how anything over $50 a night tops seemed so hard! But then I surpassed that.
And then $200 a night was to me like "OMFG $200 A NIGHT!" I surpassed that too. (And THAT seemed impossible back in the day!)
Then $400+ a night... Yep, exceeded...
And now, shortly after! - $500...

...One day, even if it my seem impossible to me right now, $500 a night will be like "me, is that all?"

And on that note, I will come back here, grab the 'Sept '12 me' by the shoulders, and report back when it's 1k a day tops...

Im amazed on how good you guys are doing ...how many hours a day do you guys usually work? and what is a good schedule for you guys ...do you take breaks? for how long? im thinking that if u want to make money camming its all about discipline since you are basically working for yourself, some of us tend to get a lil lazy at times...ive been camming for over a year on and off. When i first started i chose cams.com it was great at first i was making 500 a week and that to me was a lot...after a couple months i had to relocate since my hubby is a marine we moved outside of the us. couldnt really work for a couple months...after i finally came back to it my regulars didnt remember me i was making not even 20 bucks a day ....so i decided to go with sm....after working for almost 4 months im averaging 150 to 180 a week working 4 hours a day... i wish i could work more but have a 1 1/2 toddler and all of you that are moms know what a toddler is like at that age lol ....also have tried to do more than one site but i dont have the time management skills... to the ones that do....how do you split your time to work on different sites and make decent money?what sites do you recommend? any tips would be greatly appreciated.

I try to work shifts of 4 hours taking no breaks longer than a quick potty break. My usual hours are roughly 9pm-1am with the occasional Saturday afternoon thrown in. If things are going nicely and I'm feeling up to it I'll do 5,6 hours. My longest shift was a Cammathon of 10 hours. If I'm having a slow day and not really "feeling it" I try to stick with it, but I log off when I start to feel crabby, get a good nights rest and re-dedicate myself the next day. Try not to get discouraged by slow days. Pick a schedule that works for you, THAT YOU CAN STICK TO. I think it's crucial to keep the same hours so people who like you will look for you.

I work an average of 3-5 nights a week, but working this schedule always leads me to burn out, so I usually work for two months, then take a month off. I want to say I work 15-20 hours a week.

Being disciplined is a lot of it. When you work for yourself it's really easy just to put it off and put it off until it's bedtime. For me, if I don't start getting ready by 7 pm, then I probably won't work at all. I usually have to bribe myself to get off my ass by drinking some wine and blasting music. During work I always have wine or beer, and usually get tipped 420 tokens ($21) to smoke some green so that helps a lot. Another motivation for me is checking my bank account and reminding myself that I love money. Find your motivation.

I only use MFC because I have a lot of good regulars there. I also don't see how I can splitcam with my camming style as I engage my audience a lot. But sticking to MFC is just what I personally do. Having mutli-camsites at once seems like it would overwhelm me and bring down the quality of all my shows. Kudos to those who have figured out how to make dual income.

I don't have a husband, I live alone, and I don't have kids. Hate to say it, but it's definitely given me an advantage in camming since I run my own schedule and have tons of free time outside of my schooling. As for answering how much I make, I want to say about $80/hour, usually make $400/shift. I put a lot of time and effort in shows, so I can command more money. Feel free to ask any more questions.

One more thing...on my website - MFC - only the top 3% of models make more than $75/hour, so don't beat yourself up about earnings.

I put in about 4 hrs a day camming because I do it PT.
However the site I cam on the most has one of the WORST payouts but it seems that site works the best for me.
I charge $3.60/min and tend to get long shows. I work until I make about $125 or until I cannot cam anymore.
It's great additional income. I've tried camming and getting the $300/day thing but I cannot seem to handle it. Plus I do such specialty shows that I don't get more than one person viewing at a time so I'm reliant on just that one per minute rate.

I would love to make more than that but PT it's not real feasible. And this is doing minimal promotion on my part. So I find that amount is possible by anyone if you at least but forth a little effort.

And on that note, I will come back here, grab the 'Sept '12 me' by the shoulders, and report back when it's 1k a day tops...

law of attraction at work here!! :)

I was managing about $100 a night when I first started on MFC, but now it just doesn't seem to work for me. I've switched Streamate to my main site, and so far it's going great. My nightly goal is $130, and I can usually achieve it in about four hours (sometimes it takes a bit longer.) I usually take and hour break after the first two hours. I'm trying to work up to making $130 in two hours, so I can eventually make $260 in four hours (we'll see.) I don't pocket the other $30/$60, that goes right into a savings for my taxes. Eventually I'd like to be making $200/night (aka $1000 a week!) Gotta work towards that cash! >:D

Sounds like you ladies are doing great! As an average I'm making about 30$/hr but it's usually more like $0 for 2 hours and then make $90 on the 3rd hour lol. I'm trying to work more hours overall because I *really* want to break $400 this week and I haven't done that yet. :D

I cam for extra money, so my amounts are probably less...but when I did Streamate, I probably did $50 for 3 to 4 hours. I do MyFreeCams now, and I've only been there 3 days, but I've made about $100 for 3 hours there.

Not to brag, but just to point out how quickly this can change if you apply yourself...

When I first started, I was all over the place, and making $25 an hour was good! Now, if I made $25 an hour, I would be SERIOUSLY pissed off.

I've gone from trying to make $50 a day, to $100, to $125, to $200.....I just keep upping those goals, and then making sure that I can make them easily.

Personally, I prefer setting a goal to work 5 hours, then making my $200 in 2 or 3 hours, and thinking "yay! time off!" and going to do other stuff (online classes, going to the gym, training the puppy...all that stuff). I COULD set a goal that I would have to strive for - say $5-600 in 5 hours...but then I would end up being a bit disappointed if I didn't hit it, getting into a spiral of a bad mood, missing goals, etc etc.

That said, I'm also a bit fast and loose with DAILY goals - I have goals for the month, then goals for the week. If its a slow day, I'll work less and make less, and if the day goes well, I'll make the effort to stay on and make extra.

For me, it's all about balancing things out so that camming is a pleasure rather than a chore, and I stay happy!

I was on MFC, and my best day was $300. However, I MUCH prefer stripping to camming.

It was my first day on Streamate back camming after 2 years, and I made about $35 in about 3.5 hours. Pretty freaking SAD! However, I am determined to work back up -- I am priced at 4.49/min private and 4.99/exclusive, but I did email SM today to up my prices, cuz I also believe in the thread here about raising your rates!! I am working on being a domme and I hope some weeks down the line, I can report back that I have quadrupled my income in 4 hours, like so many of the success stories here!

I so agree with this! Some days are just dead days with no traffic/freeloaders/bound to make nothing and other days you aren't spending any time without making $$$. I find I need to be consistent with my hours but know when a bad day is just a bad day and not to waste time on it, but also know when to stay on and milk tips for as long as possible lol. I'm still trying to figure out the best times to get on.

This was a necro post in 2012 lol! If you poke around you will find various threads on earnings and all will tell you the same thing - you just never know. There is money to be made for sure, but where you nake it, how much, and in what time length is down to you x
