I've been on twitter all day and i noticed a trend with a lot of the former top SM girls. They are using studio cam model affiliate links now instead of just the cammodel link for SM. They don't cam on SM anymore yet they still push their own studio affiliate link. My theory is that they probably get a higher percentage this way. A lot of them are going to F4F as well which I totally don't understand at all.

Anyone have any thoughts on why they are doing this?

I think in a way it might be good. If the top girls all leave there will be new girls up in the top row I would assume. Or is this a bad change? I haven't been camming long enough to know what stages a camsite goes through.

Ok yall a bitch is desperate I need help I was going to see if 3 girls who have custie accounts would get a 35 second show and rate me 5 i would put price at 99 cents and immediately either tip u back 1 gold and try to give u a rating back as well because for now I used my own card to try lmao and it would not let me rate so if i dont rate u thats why but i will pay u back and i will try best to rate u back or at least leave ur choice of 5 tags and comment. I messaged support as custie and he was such a asshole telling me the stars were above the screen well all the models and mine stars were beside it id click the hell out of it like he said during or after show and it would not let me rate then he said u didnt even get a show so what im allowed to rate if i spent a dollar lol if u wanna help plz pm me I would love to help any of u as well for future reference I am just so desperate i need the stars and page 1 back guys ive made 26 dollars this week of which 6 was mine

Sometimes the option to rate you doesn't show up after a show. I've had many guys tell me they didn't have the option, however I believe this is because you have to officially end the show by clicking the red X on the top right of the webcam stream in order to have the option to rate. If they just click off to another area of the site it doesn't give them the option to rate.

Ratings are only one factor in placement, and it won't really ensure you get back to page one. Instead of artificial ratings it's probably best to focus on getting more shows. Maybe try a different shift and see if it's any better?

And also remember, Streamate isn't the only site out there. Everyone always recommended Streamate above all else...it ends up flooded among other things and it gets harder to get on the first page or make much money. Other sites are good, you just have to try them yourself and see what works.

I have been on page one forever just lost a star i never had a bad on sm I just worked longer or harder to get my goal or above if it was slow i never really had a slow day I finally gained my stars back by going to 99 cent and offering a pic I am going back up to my normal rates as soon as I get on page one.My stars are what dropped me they had to be because I could be gone months and be on page one then all of a sudden I lose a star not even a half of a star which I thought could happen. But it put me to page two the struggle is real on 2 yall for me anyway.It picked up some today but my stars have not updated I am still at 4 and have 5 5s so I emailed liz and am waiting. I hope that it will help but sm is my fave site and for me to have never had a bad day as long as I stuck it out to me means its my site and I guess if it ever fails if theres not something like it i will have to do something else I am that stuck on it . I appreciate the advice though especially from a vet like u sarah. I just have never experienced any of the bad of sm and so this was like a big wtf is going on because this hasn't happened but losing a star can I guess cause some of this. Most of my guys were new everyday and being a 4 would probaly deter them a bit. Most of my custies are new because all my old ones leave if I raise my rates a dollar I also found out some asshat tagged me with expensive rates I took that off today. I have some big spenders and a few mid spenders that come see me. Also alot of my guys are early morning and I have to work more at night now i used to get off before lunch time now its like 2 am or 3 am. I spent loads of time getting to pafe 1 i am not even near top rows but had a difference and I guess i took it a little for granted and got lazier but i have had health issues as well so thats been a major part of it. I will report back to let everyone know where I am at later. Thanks alot offer still up if anyone wants to pm for tags :)

I agree with Sarah - you're focusing on the wrong things right now. Work on your hustle, raise your rates, change up your profile/look/camspace, try a different shift, put in more hours etc etc. Do you have good lighting/fast computer/fast internet? These are all things you can work on to improve your placement. Gaming the system isn't going to be worth it in the end. If it was that easy to get front page placement, don't you think everyone would be doing it?

Dang yall, I tried to read everything I could on this thread but only got to page 35, and the search function wouldn't turn up the answer so I'm gonna ask here (I also posted in preggo newbie ?'s). So I am sorry if it has been asked before, but I tried :)

So I am completely new, and here are a few ?'s I have.

I know that once in pvt chat mode you have a 30 second freebie, but what if the customer leaves right away, since there is no nude in free chat do they give you an extra 30 seconds to pull up your skivvies I hope?

Also I am so confused, I have stalked some girls to see how to do this and I see in their yellow chat box as an example, 2 gold for titty flash, 5 for pvt (and they put what they do, dildo play for example) etc. Is this against the rules or is that OK and encouraged? Or can you not post that and have to tell the customer each time they ask.

Do most preggo girls just flash and rub oil, or do most of you girls use some toys and get it on? All the gold shoes I have seen have worked it in the extreme (and ladies I CANNOT squirt no matter how I try, I mean what is up with that? not that it isn't awesome if you can, but daaaaang, I cannot do that in addition to some of the other stuff they did) ....sorry rambling

And finally I totally suck at role play, Im not a good actress and it just isn't my thing....will I have to work on that or can I get by?

And where the heck do you post video on streamate, does the customer email you through SM and you send it that way? I know your reg. email is a no no. I would love to sell some bump video but I don't know how

Sorry for the random ?'s I really REALLY appreciate this thread and EVERYTHING I have read so far, you guys are so great!

Marie- After any privates you get 30 seconds to pull yourself together. It's never enough if you're wearing more than one or two items at least not for me, maybe I'm a slow dresser lol). What I do once a private ends is to position the camera where you can see just my head, maybe my shoulders, while I get dressed. If anyone comments about it I just laugh and tell them that 30 seconds isn't enough to get dressed in and they totally understand.

What you put in your chat title box is totally up to you. I usually have something qwirky (like "no pants allowed", because pants are stupid or "lumbersexuals annoymous" which some chatters and I joked was what you called girls who like bearded men (because theyre like lumberjacks, although thinking about it later it seemed more like a fetish for building materials lol) and I'll pu something like " tips for requests" or I'll put in a tip amount for flash/stand up,etc as well as one for people to request music changes (I tell them to treat it like a jukebox, I don't mind changing my music but there'd better be something in it for me!).

When I was camming when I was pregnant (mind you this was a decade ago, but I can't imagine the preggo fetish has changed too much) I did oil/lotion, I did regular naughty shows, I had one fun show where the custie had me write stuff on my bell like "baby factory". You can do an, all or none of these things. This is your show baby, as long as you're playing within the rules of the site you're on and the area you're in it's all up to you. If you like to do something, by all means, do it. Likewise if you're not into something, you don't feel comfortable with it or you simply cannot, just don't. Say you don't offer that ad don't budge. If it's a popular request it may be beneficial to find another cam girl who *does* enjoy those things so you can refer guys to her if that's something you'd like to do . For instance, I enjoy anal occasionally on a personal level but I have no desire to do anal shows (and If the odd mood strikes, I'll do a gold show for it and give my boys advance warning).

In regards to squirting, don't sweat it! I can't squirt either (at least not on demand.. it tends to happen sporadically and I have no control or warning lol) and it hasn't been a problem.

The role play thing is't necessary either, but it's a pretty big money maker. I only do roleplays I know I can get into. A custie asks if I role play and I reply that it depends on the subject matter, and we generally discuss it further. In my experience the good custies appreciate your honesty. They want to get a good show and I want to give a good show, I know I can't give a good show roleplaying a scene I'm ignorat off or skeeved out by. I do enjoy my geeky roleplays though :) (so far, I've had fun in a Link/Zelda RP and a BDSM Doctor Who. Who know that the tenth Doctor was a dom who likes to get into freaky threeways with Capt Harkness in a special dungeon aboard the TARDIS?! So much fun!)

The video question... I have no idea but I'm sure the ladies here will be able to answer :) Welcome to this crazy world!

@Charley the link has a virus in it. I got the same message yesterday from the same guy. I reported him, so hopefully the account will be banned eventually.

Gotcha, that's kinda what I thought, but you never know with these guys. Thanks for the heads up!!!

Marie - regarding role playing, I told you about preggo role playing in the pregnancy thread you started, but yes I do think you should try to at least attempt some of the basic role plays I told you about for pregnancy because for me it made up a large part of my pregnancy shows. Of course you could get by without role playing but it's not as intimidating as it sounds. It's mostly dirty talk and saying what they want to hear... Not much actual acting things out, if that makes sense.

Is there a way for me to sign other girls up under me if so how do i do that? i just signed up and got approved for everything. i only get 35% though right?

SarahTime
03-06-2015, 06:51 PM
^^ As long as you signed up independently and not with a studio, and you are not located in a country with an automatic lower percentage, then yes its 35%.

Here's how to refer other models: http://streamaterecruiting.tumblr.com/post/80084826057/new-model-referrals-use-a-referral-bonus-link

And finally I totally suck at role play, Im not a good actress and it just isn't my thing....will I have to work on that or can I get by?


I think my first post on here was me f r e a k i n g out because someone wanted me to role play (very VERY basic easy scenario) and I had a panic attack because I didn't know what the eff I was doing.

Looking back, it was mildly adorable how terrified I was. But anyway I haven't done a real role play since then. I mean maybe a "pretend you're my gf" or "pretend you're a highschool bully" but I never do the whole...scene set up. Like "okay you walk into the room...." kind of thing. I just do dirty talk and sort of cater it to what they are into.

Surprisingly I get almost 0 role play requests where they want me to do that. It's really usually dirty talk for me. If you do things that you are not confident in, your lack of confidence can show through and make it an awkward and they might not have such a great time. It doesn't sound like you want to work on it (girl that's fine me neither lol) but if you DO decide to, watch some porn! And also consider doing some clips. I find if I can get a role play down in a clip, the idea of saying yes to it on cam is less scary <3

Sorry for being so long winded. Good luck <333

What is with the fuckers rating me lately? Seriously! The middle of the night guys are total assholes. I bend over backwards to give them great shows, they tell me they love them, and they rate me poorly.

A three star here (guy couldn't figure out why he couldn't have his fetish in a rare group show of mine).
A four star there (guy didn't like the foot show done to his specification).
A two star here again (you came in your pants--your exact words bro--over the lotion show you requested).
A four star for a cowgirl/riding/pretending to fuck his girlfriend role play.

All gave great feed back (except mister 'fetish in premium' twat) and still rated poorly. SM has officially said they won't remove anymore 'crappy' ratings, even if they are unjustified.

Fuck ALL the things!

A three star here (guy couldn't figure out why he couldn't have his fetish in a rare group show of mine).
A four star there (guy didn't like the foot show done to his specification).
A two star here again (you came in your pants--your exact words bro--over the lotion show you requested).
A four star for a cowgirl/riding/pretending to fuck his girlfriend role play.

All gave great feed back (except mister 'fetish in premium' twat) and still rated poorly. SM has officially said they won't remove anymore 'crappy' ratings, even if they are unjustified.

Fuck ALL the things!

I see alot of "bribes for 5's " going on. It's really sad. I mean streamate- WTF. If you feel the need to let the guys be mean to us for no good fucking reason the least you could do is let them think they did something and then null and void it for us.

^^^^^^^Sounds like a glitch or maybe you were in private and thought you were in exclusive?

I had to close the show cuz it was um complicated-the second idiot literally said "take it off, sexy" forty two times during the twenty seconds he was in.

Awww, sorry. My custie account card has no money on it til Monday, but I'll get a short private and rate you. How long do you have to be in private to leave a rating?

I think exclusive is just having issues, I had a random guy but into mine. Could you see yourself?

Yes, and i've had 2 other exclusives that were just fine. Maybe something happened on his end?

There's definitely some mild tech issues going on in the last 2-3 days. Overall earnings dipped about 20% in the last 48 hours. The last time we had a drop like that was when they had those major tech issues last year...and the bounce back was very good after. Looks like its just a wave to ride out.

Aw, that's sweet of you Julia. You don't have to do that--but do stop by free chat to visit me! I love seeing you girls!

My placement is apparently back to the top few rows of page one, so now I'm just aiming for #1 position and I'll be damned if I don't pull it off in the next few months!

It's been baaadddd. I'm having either tons of in-and-out or long bouts of no one in my room at all. A few other models have reported serious lag, audio/video sync issues, freezing screens, etc. Other girls have checked me and seen these problems intermittently on my feed. Customers have had issues going/staying private. Just yucky yucky yucky.

But! I'm still getting money if I stay on. It's not pretty, but it can be done. So god speed and ride the bumps out!

Now, if only my internet would stop tweaking out. F U CHARTER!

Decided to try briefly tonight. Was in an EXCLUSIVE session and some random guy just wanders in Exclusive does mean exclusive, right? Am I losing my mind.

Actually, something similar happened to me last night, too. I was at the end of an exclusive and the guy was about to end the show, we were saying our goodbyes. Then another name flicked up into the paid users list. I was certain that I was in exclusive, so I had a WTF moment, but then the original customer ended the show, and both names disappeared. When I checked the paid chat history, there wasn't a line saying "[random second dude] has entered chat," or whatever they usually say when someone enters the room. Since it was only there for a second or two, I just assumed that I was seeing things or having eyesight issues from all the bright lighting.

Why has SM been so quiet for me the last few days?

I was averaging around $30 an hour, then all of a sudden - wham, nothing! I know it can be quiet, but also a few guys said they were 'just' about to take me pvt, went from my free chat but didn't go into my pvt chat. Then they just flashed in and out a few times. This happened on several occasions and I began to wonder was happening.

I'd been getting between $50 and $90 for a 2-3 hour shift until the last few days. The first night nobody at all took me pvt and hardly anyone was coming into my room either. That was the night of the full moon, so Thursday last. Then Friday was DEAD, as was last night and I've only made $15 in 2 hours.

Does anyone have any ideas was to why this happens? Is it just me or is it SM?

It's not you, it's slow for everyone, even the top girls are struggling. I have no idea why it's this slow but don't fret- this too shall pass, slow seasons never last. It's part of the business- part of working for yourself and this is why we should always save our money.

It's been super slow for me the last few evenings, is this normal? Up until last Thursday I was making around $30 an hour, as I mentioned in another post, then suddenly, nothing one night and only $15 the next two...am seriously hoping tonight is better! I am struggling to not look and sound pissed off on cam lol! Some guy came into my room and said if my tonsils were big enough, he'd have taken me exclusive, but sadly mine are tiny! I am getting used to the 'strange' fetishes lol! Has anyone met the 'do you prefer dogs or horses' guy yet? xxx

So I have a ? question about pvt and exclusive. Last night the little box popped up with soandso wants to take u to pvt, and I hit accept. A little later a different soandso clicked into the pvt box. I THOUGHT he was just pvt and he wanted me to get out the toys. I told him sorry that was for excl only. After I looked at my records laters, he was excl. Thank goodness he didn't leave a bad rating. How can you tell when they are pvt or excl though? I thought the box popped up every time an excl came in. Am I wrong, is it just the first time? Or is this some kind of a glitch? So confused now.

This too shall pass :) It was really slow for me yesterday, and I was in the top row for the majority of my time. There was once where I checked my placement because there were seriously like 5 guys in my room, and I was in the 3rd spot- so it is rough for everyone. It will get better- it's during these super slow times (even though it seems like it sucks now) that you can really spend your energy on converting those "freeloaders" into sales, and making LOYAL new regulars. Adaptability is key! Then when it picks up again, you'll be better than ever! :)

I love some of the fetishes on there. It's a nice break from the "harder,faster BB!" guys. The animal dudes I never do though lol

Oh thank goodness it isn't just me! I was seriously getting worried. I've worked on other sites and found it dead, then joined SM, was so pleased that it seems so much better and to work for me, traffic wise and then it wend like a zombie site. What worried me too was that several guys logged off having said they were 'about' to take me pvt or exclusive and they just flashed in and out of free chat and not into pvt. It was like WTF so are they taking me or not? I even started wondering if SM were deliberately not allowing anyone to take me pvt it was so obvious.

Thanks for the feedback, I will persevere and wonder if a little magic might help us all lol! xxx

You only get a pop up saying "soandso wants to take you exclusive" when it's an exclusive chat, or if it's a block session request which can be either pvt or excl. Regular private does not give you a pop up.

Also, exclusive will completely expand the chat area window where as private only drops it down half way.

That's what I thought! I guess it was a glitch or something bc that box never popped up but when I went back and checked it was an excl. Weird.

I decided not to log on last night...then my friend needed me for a two hour phone call - URGENT man crisis, poor love. If I had been live she wouldn't have been able to get hold of me, so it was just as well. Did it pick up at all though? Will probably be online later, finger's crossed I'll make a decent amount to make it worthwhile!

Talking about pop-ups, twice last week I actually got the pop up for exclusive, clicked on 'accept' and then it and my member who was supposed to be taking me into exclusive just vanished. Then I also got a second member appearing in my exclusive, but no record of it.

I am getting used to 'glitches' although they are very tiring, especially when you've flirted your way into a potentially lucrative exclusive for an hour, only to earn zilch!

So I know SM doesn't allow other links like twitter and such, so how do you send custies videos? I see a lot of girls with photos that that tell the description and how much gold, do you just download it and send in the SM email, or go through another site? Thinking about making some preggo videos to have on hand for later while I can. Thanks so much girls, I love this website and all the helpful advice :)

I get asked all the time, I think it's because they think you live near them, (I change my where I live spiel everyday), and the fact that there are actual escorts camming as well.

I changed my way of how I view those types. 9/10 if the guy knows you live near him he'll take you private just so he can try and get you to meet up with him. I usually tell them I don't meet but not until they ask aka the end of the show. Now I let them try and woo me and spend on me. I don't say I'll meet them ever, but I will say "Yeah, I used to live right on blank and blank!" and just drag them along making sure to never blur the lines but get them to stay longer. I've gotten really long privates from that and they'll leave their number and try and meet and I just tell them I'm not allowed to meet offline, lol. Or there may be a place I'm actually visiting but it doesn't mean anything but that. I'm mean, I've lived many places and if a guy takes me pvt based on that thinking he's going to meet me that's on him. I never agree to a meet and I just create a fantasy for them.

WOW - I love the strategies you all put in place ha ha! I don't like my Amazon wishlist showing my location, so created a Delivery code wishlist, then just as I was about to delete my Amazon one, some guy from Twitter messaged me to say he'd bought me a £60 pair of shoes from it! I got them yesterday, wore them on SM last night and actually made $62 - yippie! So is the answer to SM being quiet having new shoes lol? xxx
