thx!!!!I ignore their demands until I am ready to do them. Dance around showing off your body, then striptease, suck on your toys..... basically tease as much as possible until you are ready to start the real show. Check out teasing, stripteasing, softcore on youtube and tube sites like pornhub. Also here are some threads if you are interested...

Does anyone who does gold show know if we can kick a rude person out of the show, and still get paid? I know SM doesn't do chargebacks, but do we still get the gold from the asshat that is kicked mid show? Thanks, I couldn't find the answer here in search.

No, kicking them out counts as "show not completed" and they only get charged when it's over. Try to ignore then ban afterwards! X

Are we positive on this? I have kicked offensive people out of my gold show in the past and have been paid. Perhaps because I allow them back in to grovel? They usually settle down after a good grovel.

In my humble opinion, new model status on SM is not really as important as other sites like MFC......I completely wasted my new girl status because I didn't even realize I what it was!

I agree. I didn't even know about it and haven't noticed much difference. If anything, my earnings improved. How long does this new model status last?

I believe it's 30 days, beginning when you're approved.

I start each private by saying 'thank you!'. Then I ask for name, location, age, single or taken. One question at a time. Look straight into your cam and smile seductively as if you're truly interested (when in actuality, you give zero fuck, lol). I don't undress until I'm at least 5 minutes into private. Show your body one part at a time then ask if they love it. They would say 'mmmmmm yes'. Then ask 'what do you love about my tits?' Let them answer then ask 'what would you do with my tits if you were here now?!'. For every answer, ask a non open ended question. Something that would require more than just a yes or no answer. Be sure to move your body as you do it. This can go on and on, lol! I also have it stated in my profile that I do not rush my shows so if they do rate me poorly after a minute or two, I can have it removed.

Decided to give SM another try haven't been on there in a year or so. I downloaded the medium setting for the encoder and it's fine my cpu runs at around 30% with them but I don't think my feed looks that great, should I try other settings, or is it just because I'm using the Logitech 9000 and that cam is old, but on all the other sites it makes me look so young and pretty. :)

They dont have cam supervisors on there and they would NEVER contact you on Skype. He is scamming you and I would report him.

I did my first show tonight (just a few days later, haha, I was so nervous to start!) I found a lovely hopeful reg who was charming, interesting, and made me feel extremely comfortable. :) I did a show for 15 minutes, then we talked for 50 minutes in private, then he took me again for another 10 minute private. =D Thank you ladies sooo much for all your advice! My rates are somewhat high for a newbie camgirl (3.99/4.99) because I don't want to spend all day inserting large toys into my holes for a few bucks an hour. I'd rather wait for the 'right' customers who recognize the value of what sex workers do and how challenging it can be. Anyways, my first show was amazing, I'm still tingling all over and my self esteem is so amazing! I only did 2 hours tonight, I'm gonna catch some sleep and try to get up first thing to do another couple of hours. It'll take some getting used to to be sexual as a JOB, and do it every day, but I think I can get used to it.

Once again thank you girls for all your advice, it was invaluable this evening.

Marina, I'm so glad that technique works so well for you. I posted a thread a while back asking how to slow down my sessions.
The first guy I tried it on, logged out after I seductively asked his name.... He rated me a 1, and tagged me with "talks too much!" Also, I used to tell guys it was o.k. to turn on their cams, and do phone, and they got freaked out by that, and would leave the prvt.
I know what the girls are speaking of, because when most guys pop into the prvt., then type things like- "let me see that ass", or, "Blowjob", or "Come on, let's go, hurry up, this is costing me." Things like that. Let me just say that 99% of my guys are under 30 yrs. old. the few older guys I have usually stay much longer, and don't bark orders.

This is true also with mainstream guys, not my sub custies.

I hate that I've had to include mostly 'vanilla' type shows, because of the way the site is, traffic wise.
I'm only speaking for myself, but I'm sure there are other ladies who will agree, and have this same issue.
The only good thing to report about these types of shows, is that I don't even get to the dildo part, because they usually leave after seeing my body naked. I always ask if they want to see tits, but most only want ass... or I should say.. my ass. So, sadly, I now have to just feature my ass, and wear lots of clothing, so at least it will take longer to peel off.:shrug:
One thing I am going to offer starting today, is a photo set, or video, if they stay 5 minutes or more. I'll report back and let everyone know how that went.:-\:-\

I would just look pleasant and move my body seductively hoping that he'll stay and answer each question every two minutes ;D
I really wouldn't mind that, I actually would love it!

There's no need to freak out! When they ask for skype, do not say skype or even type it out. There are girls who got banned for just saying it. Just ignore it or tell him you only do shows on Streamate.

How? So freaked out now :(

Marina Starr

Yes, I am a fetish so it definitely works to my advantage. I personally do not want 1 minute man. I also stated in my profile that I do rush my shows so if I get rated poorly, SM will remove it because it's not my fault they didn't read or can afford me! There are things you can't control but I'm just saying if you're doing everything too fast, it may help to "stall" just a little!

^^ Marina, I like that idea of telling them that if they rate a 1, you will have it removed! I'm going to start doing that.

I have an auto-text when they enter paid chat that if they rate a 5, and comment, I will send them pix. It usually works, but, of course, not for the quick minute men, who had no intention of staying anyway. It's just a luck of the draw.

I don't really believe them when they say it's a money thing and to hurry up, because just yesterday I had a guy who did phone, etc, just stay 2 minutes, and abruptly leave.
He came back into chat about 30 minutes later, thanked me, said he came so hard, and went for round 2. You just never know.

I am more relaxed when I have it stated in my profile. I rarely get 1 star.

hey guys, I'm new here and I'm new at camming too. I used to work at a studio for 4 days, but i quit and decided to go as an independent model. Last night was my first day on streamate and only on streamate. I thought that being new , I should concentrate my full attention only on a website at a time. It was a total disaster. I made 1 dollar from a quick private, and the guys would just come into my room, didn't even say hi and just left. I was dancing all the time, trying to change positions , even got topless, but nothing seemed to work. I hope i'm not that ugly :O I am blonde, blue eyes, athletic body , I really thought I had a real chance at this and now I'm so dissapointed and depressed that I'm really considering on going back tonight too. I've read all ur advice on being a new model, but you have to have members who talk to you , so you can talk with them too, they mostly didn't even say hi , just a few with who'm I started some conversations, but they didn't tip me or take me to prv or anything....maybe there's something I'm missing somewhere :'(
Thanks for listening and hope to hear from you guys

i'd definitely recommend looking at the 'performer manual' on streamate. You can find it under the 'support' tab at the top of your page. Guys will attempt to pull you offsite to get a free show. Sometimes they offer to pay using some sort of service which will allow them to get a refund. Lots of models do offer shows through services like skype, but i wouldn't advise offering that until you've got a little more experience.
hi girls...i hope i can ask this here.i am thinking and start over on sm,cancel my account and creat a new one.do u girls thin its possible?tks.

First things first, (and do not take this the hard way) camming isn't for everyone. This is a sales job. We cannot tell you the exact thing you are doing wrong, but we can give you the tools. Read through the links posted.

My question is how long were you online?

from midnight to almost 7 in the morning. I sometimes logged off, my back hurt from all the dancing and cat moves :)) and took a break about 10 min or so and then i was logging again. I did read all ur tips...that's what I'm saying, I'm trying to be fun and to talk to them, but they don't even say say hi when they enter my room and someone said you should never say hi first. Do girls get naked in free chat on SM? Maybe I should rub my pussy more and be more slutty :( I was only being sexy, slow moves, touching my abs and my breasts a lot , but nothing to naughty

I would try another time slot. It's not uncommon lately on SM for people to pop in and out of your room. I've been on SM for over 3 years, and it happens to me every shift.
If I had to guess, it's most likely other models, or studios just coming in to see what they think could be their competition, since You are new.
When I was brand new, I always had people just popping in to insult me. I guess they thought they could 'break' me, or something, because I never get that anymore.
If they are in for a minute, just click on their name and see if it is another female. I always ban females, because they are trouble, and usually say something f...ked up.

Same as the big MFC one - all your advice / tips / info so that it's all in one place. It's about time!!
I know VERY LITTLE about SM (which is short for Streamate), it's my backup backup backup site. So ladies, feel free to share some wisdom!
NO QUESTIONS HERE.

Model Tips
- Work out, Do your nails, your hair, get a better cam and good lighting. You WILL stand out if you present yourself well.
- Always treat your big tippers extra special by sending them mailings and don't forget to let them know that you'll be on.
- The only way for you to be at the top is: Adobe encoder, Mic, 5 star ratings (this is the most important and can get you to the #1 spot)
- Please please please don't show a boob, ass, or pussy for a private. They won't take you.
- It is not possible to change your username (but you can try emailing support and asking, just to be sure).
- It is possible to change your email (you'll have to contact support).
- Its generally not possible to rejoin SM after being released from a studio for one year (unless you're entering "Daily Pay".)
- Profit % rate is 35% of gross
- Keep your area clean and don't broadcast toys. Guys can get off just by looking at them.
- If you sign up for Streamate independently and with a studio at the same time, Streamate will accept your independent application over the studios.
- Upload more than four pictures.
- The men on streamate love different outfits and different toys, so now is a good time to invest in those. The more toys and outfits you have, the more shows you'll get.
- Experiment with different days and different times of day. Late Friday/Saturday night when the guys get back from drinking can be good. Weekends during the day time (esp. Sunday) are also good. Keep in mind what time it is in the US and UK; that is where most of your customers are from.
- You don't need to invest in outfits when you start out but atleast have nice almost matching bra and panties.
- Outfits are always great; experiment with different outfits to find what works for you.
- Proper internet is IMPORTANT, especially with the encoder. Playing youtube or pandora will slow it down.
- Never do anything you are not comfortable doing.
- Use as many of the available features as you can. Such as HD,encoder,audio,phone and now (maybe)party chat
- Make sure to change ur profile pic every week or 2 weeks to spice up ur profile more everytime
- Make sure to speak loud and clear-English speaking is needed if u want to make MORE $$
- Wear clothing that is bright-usually blk, flesh colored, or white doesnt show up well on cam (pinks, reds, greens, blues make u and ur background POP

Your Show
- Greet every single guy that comes in your room and talk to them like they are REAL people with feelings. Do not ask a guy to go private as soon as he comes into your room. These men want you to make them feel good. Start with emotional and then physical.
- If a guy has his cam on even though he looks like shit, make sure you tell him how good he looks. If he has a small cock, make sure you tell him how good his cock feels and how much you enjoy sucking it. Don't lie to him and tell him it's big because he knows that shit is small as hell. This particular advice is for ladies that do vanilla shows. Of course if you get a guy who's into small cock humiliation, you don't want to tell him his dick is big.
- When in group chat, make sure the guys know that there are others in the room. If they want you to do something specific like phone, they need to go exclusive. Do not do phone in group just talking to one guy. You ratings will drop and you will be very sorry.
- Encourage tips and don't beg.
- Don't be too talkative because it stops privates, but keep in mind that some like to get to know a girl first, and expect you to talk, talk, talk.
- Dont be afraid to change your prices for private/exclusive because their horny asses will pay.
- Don't be afraid to use the ban function on Streamate - when idiots waste your time in free chat, it distracts you from actual paying customers. Don't tolerate beggars.
- Block the time-wasters and bullshitters. There IS a difference between guys who come in for conversation and who (eventually) will become a paying regular...they don't ask you for freebies, they don't hog the attention and they are actually okay to talk to and help the flow of convo in the room.
- Work all angles! Cindi Cruz won't do anal without a 60 minute block for example. Some ladies offer only voyeur cam in group chat and xxx in exclusive chat.
- Respond to private messages even if the guy annoys you/ Don't be so quick to ban.
- Take advantage of exclusive chat (Make it at least a dollar more than your group chat) For example: $2.94 group/$3.94
- Always encourage gold.
- Although you have 29sec to get dressed its okay to position the cam up or down to freshen up.
- Beware that once you go private some customers may try to fool you by only staying for 30 seconds trying to get everything pleasing to them for free 30 seconds. SM don't bill the customer till after 30 seconds keep track of the 30 seconds start off doing softcore sexy don't jump to anything hardcore till after the 30 seconds over. SM protects cam models against chargebacks from customers they will pay you once 30 seconds over.
- The first 30 secs of the pvt are free so I usually talk to them, ask them if they can hear me clearly and of course ask them to rate and leave a comment if the pvt is good!!
- Don't be afraid to try something new! It's refreshing!
- Enable Block Sessions. I get a lot of guys buying the 15, 30 minute block sessions and if they leave early you still get paid for the whole 15 or whatever minutes.
- If u dont want 30sec peepers-change ur Premium Prvt rate to more than ur Exclusive Prvt rate
- To keep excitement in ur free chat, play some games with the customers, dance to ur fav music, enable Gold-Chat Party (if u have it)
- Make sure to set a sched in ur profile and STICK to it..u will get more regular customers that way
- Work for that 5-star rating by encouraging customers who paid to write a comment and rate u after their prvt

Techy Stuff
- Fix your cam, Get good lighting, get better internet connection so your cam doesn't jerk. I CANNOT stress this enough. Men are visual creatures. You do not want him to be just about to come and your cam freeze.
- Turn on mic. Guys love to hear you. If you do not have a mic, go now and buy one.
- The encoder works best with a desktop and the settings the SM tells you to use might not work so well unless you have top notch internet.
hi..i have a question,i do not know if here its the right place,but I was thinking to cancel my current account on sm,i am no happy bcz I started in December and I came back no in april and the traffic its too slow...so can I start over agai?

... Y'know, I never even considered having autotext for privates/exclusives. Only for free chat. D'oh. It seems so obvious now.

I have question about being in the UK working SM: If you have your rate set at say $5.99 USD 35% your part = $2.09 per minute. is the conversion 1.24 gbp? OR when a UK model sets their rate men are paying her in GBP from the beginning instead of USD? The reason I ask is I have noticed the conversion already in place for the customers when they tip. And wondered if I would be coming out with less or more when I visit?

^The UK model sets her rates in $ and gets paid the percentage of the $ rate. If a guy pays in £ then he will pay the converted amount of the dollar rate (ie he still pays the dollar rate set) and the girl still gets the percentage of the $. Unlike IML, SM doesn't overcharge/underpay based on converted amounts.

I'm really curious about what you said. If it is against the rules to offer Skype shows, how does experience make any difference? Do you mean they turn a blind eye to experienced models offering Skype shows, or are you referring to sneaky ways to offer it - ways where you don't get caught? A lot of customers do message me and leave email addresses and Skype ID's... but I don't follow them up, but that's mainly because most of the customers who want to contact me off site are cheap skates who don't spend much in private. If he was a very big spender I would follow it up of course.

The easiest way around it is to have a twitter you can direct guys to. "I'm not allowed to have outside contact with you, sorry. But I'm sure you could search for me and find what you're looking for ..." If they can't be bothered googling your model name, they probably won't make the effort to go off-site for a skype show either.

I've not seen top models offering up their info, but some don't make a secret out of having contact with guys either. I've seen someone opening her wishlist gifts on cam and thanking the guys in her room, for example.

You're not even allowed to say "search me" "or google me" Someone here stated that they got a suspension for doing that. Most guys know how to find you. Some do Some dont. Just use the same name on site as your twitter and they will find you if they want to.

^^ Now I know why you girls go for long unique model names lol. I'm using a regular, although not very common, girls name. Googling that would not achieve much. It's a bit late now, but that's a definite consideration when choosing a name.

Some guys are such fucking idiots. They ask if I have a site and I say I can't disclose the name of it here, and how stupid do they have to be? My screen name is the same as my domain name. They can't even think of putting that in or googling it. I figure if they're that stupid they probably don't earn enough to be worth having as a fan anyway. Good to know you can't say "search me" or "google me" - I've done that in the past but now I'll be more careful.

I think part of it is playing dumb, like "wow bb I was going to buy you 8 golden ponies. that was totally going to happen but I cannot contact you :("

If you're on the internet, you know what google is. Guys who want to buy you presents will take the 3 seconds to search.

On the SM blog that Vanessa runs, she was saying if a customer asks you if you have a twitter you can say "yes" but you can't give out the link/name of your twitter.

A great way to do a search on stripperweb is to go to google and type in "what your looking for : stripperweb.com" without the "" It will search all the stripperweb posts with that keyboard and does a much better job than the search function on this website.

I start each private by saying 'thank you!'. Then I ask for name, location, age, single or taken. One question at a time. Look straight into your cam and smile seductively as if you're truly interested (when in actuality, you give zero fuck, lol). I don't undress until I'm at least 5 minutes into private. Show your body one part at a time then ask if they love it. They would say 'mmmmmm yes'. Then ask 'what do you love about my tits?' Let them answer then ask 'what would you do with my tits if you were here now?!'. For every answer, ask a non open ended question. Something that would require more than just a yes or no answer. Be sure to move your body as you do it. This can go on and on, lol! I also have it stated in my profile that I do not rush my shows so if they do rate me poorly after a minute or two, I can have it removed.


exactly! i was in pvt with 3 dudes trying to ask for different things at the same time, i don't think they understand you have to take time to respond to each one of the, or if your doing a show you CAN'T always be watching. i ask ask ask and tease a lot. One of the guys said 'can i see your boobs?' after 2 minutes he says 'well i guess not and logs off. I was taking my tee off so his lost :)
