as far as i know geoblock is the only way but why is good traffic (by ur book) bad ?
I've turned on geo block since I've started camming (about two and a half years ago). It's worth losing the traffic because I can live pretty good off of 50 bucks a day (and if I need to work 6 hours a day for 50 bucks - that's more than fine by me), and I can always make 50 bucks. I don't need more exposure. Of course, there a lot of other reasons as well, but I won't go into that.

Do any of you split cammers agree that camming on one big box site and being logged into indie sites and maybe MGF is also considered splitcamming?

Correct me if I'm wrong but SM's policy is that you are allowed to stream for other companies and do indy work, you just can't stream them all at the same time. So say you take a break from SM and go to another site, or you get a customer through Skype and log off of SM to do the Skype show that's okay.
They do allow you to splitcam through a website like Modelcentro, I believe! As long as it links the user to your SM show then it's okay- I think!

For me I don't consider it splitcamming unless I'm doing sites with freechat. My Skype is on all day long and I just consider that indy because that's traffic I generated. Although sometimes I may use verysoft on Skype so that I may go into nude on some big sites. As long as I'm making money however I choose to do it from day to day, then it's all good. Never really thought about the technical definition for split camming.

I guess splitcamming in definition would be being live on more than one competitive live streaming website at a time with the same live footage to generate sales for the site and for yourself.
I don't think indy sites really count because they don't have the capability to view your live stream until you actually connect with the customer. However, if your customer wants a preview and you direct them to one of your big box sites...at that moment, it becomes splitcamming because you are basically going to take the revenue away from the big box site to sell them on your indy site.
PSO doesn't count at all even if you are logged into and available on a PSO site at the same time as your big box sites because it's a different animal all together.
In my opinion, it is ideal to have multiple streams of income, all generating money at the same time ideally 24/7. That's my goal.
1. Website with videos, store with items eg. ModelCentro, CamModelStore
2. Clip sites eg. C4S, C4U
3. Various pic/social media sites that can generate income eg. MyPornProfile, Dreamlover
4. PSO sites eg. Niteflirt
5. Indy sites CMD, LCMS, SkyPrivate
6. Splitcamming (if required)
You also need to upkeep your social media eg. Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr to showcase all of the above.
Take advantage of partnerships between the sites...eg. MyPornProfile, ModelCentro, SkyPrivate and Streamate are all linked and can be promoted together. You can promote your ModelCentro url during tv and regular gold shows as well as in your free chat.
Look for more ways to generate Skype shows if you like doing them, eg. Niteflirt/phone with cam, CamModelStore Skype shows since you get more of a cut.
Skype shows however, can actually cut into your earnings if you start becoming very popular. When you are that point where you are making more from your gold shows/premium shows on big box sites, you need to raise your Skype rates drastically.

I think every cam sites official word is they don't want you to split cam. Probably 90% of the models do it anyway, no one is kicking you off the site for it.

That's how long until the bio pic preview thing takes your photo. Even if you've asked for a static bio pic, it still does the count down.

If you log in from streamate.com, it logs you into your dashboard and blocks you from viewing models since you used the customer login. If you login from streamatemodels.com, you see your dashboard and can still check the home page. Used to happen to me too.

I cam using chrome and open a mozilla window to see where I am on the list.
I have a question about the 45,000 different sites we stream through. I've had guys tell me I don't have a pic, and I've replied "I uploaded it to streammate, I know it's there" and they tell me they're on other sites. Can I get in trouble for telling them Streamate? I had a guy actually get mad that I didn't have a pic up. lol

Is it cheap to use a video streamate put out as a "free vid" of me as a promotional tool? One of the bastard white labels released a recorded gold show and I figure I should profit off of it.

No, Id probably edit out some of the more graphic parts tho and make it like a tease of a show. and WATERMARK it with your cammodels link. that way if it gets added to a tube site youll get more exposure and maybe a cm sign up(one can dream)
Do any of you split cammers agree that camming on one big box site and being logged into indie sites and maybe MGF is also considered splitcamming?
Nahhh like dynomite said I only consider it split camming if you are logged into two plus free chats or two plus privates at the same time....two plus live streams
Leaving all your sites like MGF on and available for shows is super smart tho
I leave MGF on all the time when I can possibly cam even if Im not on a free chat site in the off chance someone wants to cam
I have a question
Have you guys been get ratings like normal lately? The reason I ask is I havent got any in the past 3 days, even from guys who normally leave a rating

At least you can get them to reply to you. I've messaged them about 6 times since January about a "NO audio" issue that I'm having... not one reply yet. I want to work my way up so I can be offered gold show TV offers but until the audio thing is resolved I can't. I would like to also add that guys can hear me just fine.

I had this issue for quite a long time. Didn't matter what I did, it always said 'no audio' even when I was very clearly streaming audio. Had it with 3 different accounts. Never got a response from support other than the same copypasta response to enable audio in the model interface. Kept emailing to explain that I had it enabled but it still wasn't being recognised on my ranking page, and I'd just get the same response. I swear to god, they don't actually have people reading some of these emails. I think it's just a computer program set to pick up key words and send out a pre-written reply.
Only way I could get it to recognise my audio was to stream with the encoder, which was obviously a lot better, not just for the audio, but quality, placement etc.. Depends what your computer can handle though.

I think I can explain the low traffic with mobile custies. I had an indy custie ask to see what outfit I had on so I linked him to my live SM feed and it kept saying I was in a private. He refreshed several times. The only reason I know he was telling the truth was because he described my profile pic ver batem. Yet, the customers in my room actually were able to come in and chat with me. O.o

It's only calculated on your average of what you reach on TV gold shows. Not on your own gold shows. At least that's what they say...
They were seriously low balling me for the longest time, so I emailed Liz and asked her to pass along that I would not accept any show below a certain amount (this was a long time ago, many many months now maybe even a year?) So they quit offering me any shows at all.... then lo and behold yesterday they made me an offer that exactly matched what I said I would not go under. I could tell they needed a last minute show because the timer was very short, so they offered me what they knew I would accept in order to fill the slot. There's no way the offer they made me yesterday was my "average" of the TV shows I had done in the past, because when I emailed that to Liz she told me my average and the offer yesterday was not the average. So yes, they can offer you more if they just like you and want to, and they do when they need to fill a spot quick.
Considering how our TV shows are used, they really should be paying A LOT more, regardless of our "averages". I cringe when I see a model doing a TV show for $30. The only reason I took the TV show was because it's been so dead for me, I needed to take it to try and boost my money/time online ratio.
Long story short, there was a time that I thought SM actually cared about performers, like really cared about the ones at least that made them good money. Boy, I was wrong. I'll never forget the conversation I had with Shawn that gave me that slap in the face that made me realize they could honestly care less.

Not True. Sometimes I have done really "special" gold shows where I can easily pull about $2000 a show and when I come back I get offers from the producers of $300-$400 bucks which is way way way above what they normally offer me. Sometimes I am on line with another person and I hit high goals for my gold shows and a couple days later my tv gold show offers go up for a day or so. They might "say" that is how they calculate it but its not what I see.
I have also asked the producers for a higher rate when they are offering me the show and had them cancel and come right back with the higher rate in the same moment. There is an amount I refuse to go below and I tell them that.
Sarah I know they love your shows, you certainly got the offer the other day cause they were stuck between a rock and a hard place. I dont think its the fault of the actually Producer who is in our room there has got to be a boss who is watching the bottom line saying "why would you pay Sarah so much when you could have gotten this other girl for $30?" They have to be able to justify paying you more at the end of the day.
And if they really base it on the tv gold show average that is tremendously unfair because they always low ball the pay in rate and give me short timers. Doesnt matter how sexy I am if I need 30 guys to tip-in in just 7 mins its set to fail! :banghead:

I feel like they dont want their customers finding me too easily immediately after I have been featured. Anyone else notice this?
Also I have started asking the guys who throw big tips into my gold shows not to do it when its a tv gold show cause its not doing me any favors its just doing the producer a favor. It really irks me when I get a great guy who throws in like a $50. I keep smiling but inside Im think I just got ripped off!

Yah it's obviously not true, so I don't know why they maintain that that's how they determine an offer. It might be the baseline of how they determine it but they can definitely change it if they want. One time I kept rejecting their offer and they kept increasing it and reoffering. So yah, it's kinda BS.

Well, if it helps you feeling better, I had the same problems, Alice! Streamate fucked my connection for 3 hours until I decided to finish for the night. If it wasn't logging me off, they were logging off the guys. And a lot of freezing and lagging, big delay, over 2 min. I got disconnected 3 times in one hour and all in gold shows and I didn't do no money in that period of time.
My ms (which is the time from when my information is sent to their servers was 1000, and should be max. 100, and that's one of the points for the ranking).
I checked my position, from the offline part after that shitty night and they dropped me 80 models!!!! Before I was in top 20, for the guest part, now I am top 100. And wasn't even my fault. My studio is an exclusive one that has a special contract with the website for more traffic, better placement, bla bla. So you can't say I have bad connection. The problem was everywhere, I asked my guys to go and check it.

Well that's interesting.... Has anyone else heard about this or am I totally out of the loop? I've noticed that once I meet goal they cut the countdown short (usually bump it to a minute and a half as soon as I hit the goal) so this explains why they're able to do that without messing up scheduling slots.

Are you saying, that if a producer offers you X amount for a GS, you only get your 35% cut from what they are offering to give you and not what the show ends up racking up to?
For instance, if the producer offers you $100 and the guys end up putting in $200, would you get 35% of $100 or 35% of the total $200?

Interesting....I wonder if they are doing away with the whole TV thing altogether. Sounds like producer shows are just for promoting models on the site now, which is still nice. You are no longer on TV, but you still get bumped to the top spot for a while. Maybe they are doing less offers to higher placed models since they already have better exposure?
"producers are still viewing and rating each show as if it were for future LIVE TV selection and recommendation." Meaning they aren't really for future live tv selections?
hmmmmm....

Well, I remember 2-3 days ago one of the producers told me they were having issues with the connection from Dish, and I will not be live. He said after I accepted the request. But he advised me not to mention it. Still, he said is no need to promote Cam tv. Maybe they answered you when they had that problem. Feels strange otherwise. Means every producer is like one of my exes, a big liar. "You are live on Dish now", apparently not.
And I don't understand why sometimes they would give you a small teasing and be extra thankful cause you accepted, because they need somebody good on tv very fast.
Scarlet, sometimes if you reach your goal too fast, they give you that message with "We have technical issues, we will not broadcast your show, but you will continue as a gold show and get compensated in case you didn't reach your goal". And they don't use you anymore on tv for that show. The producer is not even in your room.
Bobo, I am a gold show girl and if the website is shitty, my regulars save me with big tips. Try to be friends with them, joke around and they will be your fuck generous buddies.

Bobo, the requests are based on multiple things. Usually you need to have good reviews from producers. I got popular on that part cause my regular producer started recommending me to the other ones and I was always his first choice. And that's how everybody found about that silly romanian.
So, even if is not fair, you have to convince them first.

You get the exact same % cut you get for all other shows when you do a TV GS. The only difference between a TV GS and regular GS is that the show is guaranteed after the first timer countdown, it starts no matter what if goal is met or not, and if goal is not met, the producers pay you the difference you would have gotten if goal was reached. So let's say you're offered a $100 TV GS and you only get $50 from the guys. So you'll see $17.50 after the show is done from members, and about 15 minutes later it will show $17.50 from the producer. If it's a $100 GS and you get guys to give you more than the goal, let's say you top the $100 goal at at $200 goal, you still keep 35% ($70 in that case) of whatever they put in in total.
Another "fun" fact about TV GS is that producers use to pitch money during the countdown to get the ball rolling/motivate guys, and say something like, "you guys don't want to miss this show!" etc. Guess it's not in the budget for that anymore. In the last +6 months this happened to me only once.

So, I would have a bunch of users in my room and then everyone would leave except one or two people. This happened multiple times, so each time I would ask if they were on a mobile device or a laptop.
Laptop, every time. Streamate is booting all of the mobile users out of my room over and over again.

I think I can explain the low traffic with mobile custies. I had an indy custie ask to see what outfit I had on so I linked him to my live SM feed and it kept saying I was in a private. He refreshed several times. The only reason I know he was telling the truth was because he described my profile pic ver batem. Yet, the customers in my room actually were able to come in and chat with me. O.o
I just wanted to chime in to say that this is not only an issue with mobile. I don't have this problem often, but have occasionally through several months. I check my stream on a laptop and it will appear that I am away in private, when I am sitting in free chat. During those times, people are entering and leaving free chat quickly without talking. While a few are in free chat typing as if there is nothing wrong. I have never figured that out. Often this happens after someone is kicked from private. It could be a card decline or other reasons. Restarting sometimes helps the problem.

I was in private for awhile and the guy just abruptly left. I go back to my room and guys are coming in and out in and out in and out. None of them say anything even when I talk to them. Then the guy I was in private with comes in and tells me the camera froze (grrrr...he wasn't even finished >:(). THEN SM just cuts my show off.

Did anybody notice they changed the tv goals? They are not approximate amounts anymore. I was checking the website to see if is worth going online and I saw 4 tvs with strange goals, $77, $56, $132, $78. Wtf is that?! Is just me or they got cheap on this part? Probably they give the average for the last period of time. I'm wondering if is for the last 3 months.

Does your hours decrease on the "time online" collum day by day? I have worked well over 100 hours this month but sm has been lowering my hours. SM lowered my hours from 108 to 92 hours since last week wtf?

^It works on an average so it will depend on what you did last month (and I think the month before too). So if you have done lots of hours this week but a month ago you didn't work very much then your hours online will be less. Over a month or two it will average out.
