Hmm.... I have to think about this more in depth but my initial answer is this....

The camming veterans will stick to their guns and not give in to the lower prices and free shows, and will continue to make money.

The new cammers will give in because they don't know any better, charge less and give away more. Thus, make way less, and quit camming because it becomes not worth it.

I'm already seeing a huge gap between those of us that demand what we charge, and those who give it all away for free and are left at the end of the day not making very much. There doesn't seem to be much of a "middle ground".

I whole heartily believe that if you are going to "make it" camming, you absolutely cannot give in to "slow times" or freeloaders and lower your rates or start giving away more for less.

So what can you do about it? You can choose to remain one of the models that acknowledges that camming is a LUXURY and if you cannot afford even a measly $1/min you should not be on a cam site! You should be WORKING. I also know however, that times are tough for customers AND models, and so models get desperate and lower their standards. Again, this is a LUXURY industry, and those who cannot afford to buy the shows at decent rates, and models who are desperate and therefore lowering to rock bottom prices, probably do not belong in this industry. I apologize if that is harsh.

Depends on where you look. If you look on Alexa for the last year, it shows a huge drop in traffic, which is pretty scary. http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/streamate.com

But you have to remember paying traffic and traffic aren't the same thing....
So even if the traffics lower but conversion rate is over we could be better off.,

It pisses me off the way these guys pull shit like that like they expect it all for nothing if they want free its called pornhub.com ...

We broadcast on pornhub every time we login to broadcast on Streamate. They just call it http://www.pornhublive.com/ (http://www.pornhublive.com/?AFNO=1-595728-JD-3-0-437+1l1+mt1x1.2170787139.2.595728.338243.0+en+1)

I haven't been spending much time in free chat over the past few months because of health problems. But I plan on getting back to things soon. I've been watching how Streamate has shifted their marketing over the past year.

This type of traffic and marketing does increase sales for some cam girls, affiliates, and companies. But it's definitely new territory for Streamate. Freecamsecrets.com isn't available in the Streamate affiliate marketing tools area. So that means most affiliates will also lose out on new sign ups.

I think we can continue to be successful. We might just need to change our game.

If you look at their stats, the traffic has dropped since they added Gold shows and then slowly declined more. It's brought in a lot of deadbeat traffic and the quality customers are not happy with the site. All you have to do is read the customer reviews at sites like this http://www.rabbitsreviews.com/s9333/Streamate.html The glitches, Gold shows and customer support is what many customers seem to complain about. The conversation rates aren't that impressive either. They need to stop putting up ads that the site is free and stop allowing all the nudity in free chat. If you don't have standards then your site will become crappy.

Their marketing is an issue. They are marketing themselves as a free site, which they aren't. It has been bringing in tons of deadbeats and people who expect dirt cheap shows. In their qwest to be like MFC they are killing their own site just like CamWorld did. The upgrades they did to the site has caused so many glitches it isn't even funny. People have been getting kicked off the site, including customers. When you talk to CS about it, they act like it's an issue on your end not theirs. I'm sorry but all the performers having issues can't all have slow connections, old computers and screwed up Encoders. That's not possible. It's a frustrating cycle and they need to address the issues and fix them. I talked to Liz and Danielle about this a few times.

They said they woud look into it. They also said the problems I am experiencing are happening to other performers. I have new laptops, my upload speed is usually above 14 mbps and my camera is a good quality. You can't really do much until they address the glitches and fix them.

One of my favorite SM models did a cooking GOLD show with another model, and I think the price was like a few bucks for an hour show or something like that.

Occasionally I'll see models with GOLD show timers up, and in the description box it will just say "I'm doing a GOLD show." LOL. You gotta be specific about what you're doing, otherwise you'll have guys not chipping in, or you'll have guys chipping in and then complaining later when they learn that it's NOT a penetration show. So if it's just intended to be a shower show or something like that, it's important to state that in the description. We all know how much some guys on SM love to whine...lol.

I wouldn't even do a 30/40 minute Skype show unless the guy is 100% clear that the majority of that time will NOT be penetration. One guy from MFC won a 30 minute Skype show, and he thought it meant I'm gonna keep fucking myself repeatedly. When I was done using my glass dildo, he was like "Aren't you gonna go at it again?" I told him no...lol.

Exactly. She will lower either the buy in, the total goal, or LENGTHEN the show time to make it "more attractive". Many, many guys wait it out because they know the model will do this. Or, they will restart over and over.

I've gotten to the point where I'm like look.... if you want a show with me this is it. This is the price, the goal, the length. No restarting. No second tries, no lowering the amount. And I have found that over time it has become sort of "known" that I am not a model who will give in to this stuff. If they can't make the goal, TOO BAD, they can do private if they want a show.

And yah, it's hard to do that and get to that point, especially if you NEED the money. But over the long haul I really believe you can make it part of your "brand" for lack of a better description. Eventually the guys will get it that if they want a show with you, they need to pony up and pony up fast before the timer runs out.

That's awesome!

I believe we really can train our fans that they need to buy in quickly or they will miss out and have to pay a higher private rate.

I'm experimenting with raising the price every time I restart (sometimes adding a minute to the show length to sweeten the deal). Too early to tell if it's working but so far I've had a few successful tries.

Yes Yes Yes and Yesssss. I've been talking about their traffic for a while and it was like no one knew or acknowledged what I was talking about. Now months later other models are finally starting to see what I was talking about. They need to stop trying to be like other sites and go back to their original marketing routine/campaign. Their traffic use to be bomb(as in great) and now it sucks. I read the reviews on Rabbits and I can't believe that they treat the customer's just like they treat us models. I would've thought or at least hoped that they treated the customers better then us.

Uggggh to Camworld. I never made alot of money on their but it was good for split-camming. I haven't worked on there in years because of all the changes and serious decline in traffic. Webcamclub runs it now and I don't like them at all lol. As soon I realized that they were running the site I tried to get my account deleted. Customer service sucks now and I'm still waiting for them to delete my account. I wish these sites would stop trying to fix things that aren't broken. Just improve on things and stop trying to change the whole format of the site/business/company. It makes no sense to ruin something that was so fantastically great.

I've seen girls do this because there are guys there who genuinely want to see the show & know that they're still getting a deal at $1/min. So if your show is set at $5 for 5 min and you raise it to $7 for 8 min but keep the goal the same, you might still make your goal b/c some of the guys are willing to pitch in more to get the show going. Those who can't spare the whole $2 can go find another show. I've seen it work a lot of times.

One of the performers mentioned they stopped buying traffic and put tons of money into the tv shows. I hope that's not true but it would explain a lot.




Yes Yes Yes and Yesssss. I've been talking about their traffic for a while and it was like no one knew or acknowledged what I was talking about. Now months later other models are finally starting to see what I was talking about. They need to stop trying to be like other sites and go back to their original marketing routine/campaign. Their traffic use to be bomb(as in great) and now it sucks. I read the reviews on Rabbits and I can't believe that they treat the customer's just like they treat us models. I would've thought or at least hoped that they treated the customers better then us.

Uggggh to Camworld. I never made alot of money on their but it was good for split-camming. I haven't worked on there in years because of all the changes and serious decline in traffic. Webcamclub runs it now and I don't like them at all lol. As soon I realized that they were running the site I tried to get my account deleted. Customer service sucks now and I'm still waiting for them to delete my account. I wish these sites would stop trying to fix things that aren't broken. Just improve on things and stop trying to change the whole format of the site/business/company. It makes no sense to ruin something that was so fantastically great.

I just looked in the Ebony section and saw a model naked with her hand covering her pussy, and her topic said that she will show her pussy for 5 Gold. :( I wonder if she's even familiar with the rules (I had gotten suspended a long time ago when I wasn't clear on what we could/couldn't flash).

It depends on who you talk to at SM. But I don't think anyone gets in trouble for flashing tits for gold. Of course you're not allowed to flash pussy.

You are allowed to flash tits for GOLD. You are not supposed to sit in free chat with no top on. Not sure if they are enforcing that or not. No nudity below the belt. Not sure if they are enforcing that either since I see it happen all the time.




Can someone please brief me on the public flashing rules? I have been on SM for almost a year and have no idea and I've never flashed anything because I was under the impression that it's technically not allowed.

I get sooooooo many 'flash tits for gold?' all day long that I'm considering doing it, but I bet that if I actually do start offering that that it'll just turn into 'no pussy flash for gold bb?' all day long LOL.

All I would add to this is if you are going to flash for gold, make sure its a decent amount and not just a few cents in your account, you are worth more than that! I offer a sexy strip tease for 50 gold, but if I ever get to do it I will still not be showing tits or pussy,a bit like a burlesque tease. Its so much sexier. ;)

I have the same issue, I got disconnected at least 3 times per hour, my connection is ok, and of course I got a superb pc. Support replied " Use the Encoder settings" oh really ? Breaking news: we need to use the encoder settings ! What a silly answer.

i am so frustrated and not getting any help from support on this. just wanting to rant and to get some advice. my moneys on the line or rather its in limbo.

recently i moved out of US to another country and i went to change my address to my new one. all was well. then i noticed my paper checks where not coming in the mail so i went in to check my details and the site had glitched out or something because it had half of my new address and half of my old address as the payment address. i went in and tried to edit it but it would not update. i contacted support and after many a copy pasta response telling me that i could edit my details - which i already knew how to do - they eventually got the point n said they changed the address to the right one. it appears to be right on my profile even now. so once again i thought all was well.

however i have still not received any of my checks since late DEC. or my 1099s - nothing. when i write them about it they give me the "pay 25 bucks to get another check or wait 45 days to get it for free" response. at that point i thought well maybe because I'm not in the US it takes longer and that they'll come in eventually and i waited...and waited and waited.. still nothing.so i wrote back and i asked how long does it usually take to have a check sent to this country. they said 9 days. it has been well beyond 9 days for even the most recently issued checks. for the oldest check well over 45 days. ;(its really disheartening.

anyone else having this problem? what can i tell them? how long do you foreign girls usually have to wait for paper checks? do any of you ladies outside of the US use paper checks?
i tried to get a Payoneer card but they asked me to scan and send my social security card. is this normal? maybe i should just bite the bullet go to the embassy and get my card reissued to get one.

I'm wondering if the address looks fine on my end but still glitched out on supports end. its just weird to not be able to get a check from them. i should also mention i had them reissue the earliest check again since its been over 45 days but I'm worried since i haven't gotten any others that its just not going to the right place.
i wants my money lol

I'm getting so worn down with SM. I had one regular switch to ordering Skype shows from me because he's tired of SM kicking him out of rooms or locking up on him and just all their glitches in general. And, that's great for me, but if I'm going to doing SM, it really helps when guys buy shows from me there... They need to get I their shit figured out...

BritishBecky

I actually alwaise raise my buy in if I don't hit goal the first time (and quite often raise the goal too). I just say, 'ok guys, I'm only going to do this show for those of you who really want it'. I love it when I don't hit goal first time because I always exceed it by a lot if I have to give them a second try. (I even sometimes set my buy in very low, like $3 for 6 mins, just so they won't hit the goal and I can put the buy in right up).


Exactly. She will lower either the buy in, the total goal, or LENGTHEN the show time to make it "more attractive". Many, many guys wait it out because they know the model will do this. Or, they will restart over and over.

I've gotten to the point where I'm like look.... if you want a show with me this is it. This is the price, the goal, the length. No restarting. No second tries, no lowering the amount. And I have found that over time it has become sort of "known" that I am not a model who will give in to this stuff. If they can't make the goal, TOO BAD, they can do private if they want a show.

And yah, it's hard to do that and get to that point, especially if you NEED the money. But over the long haul I really believe you can make it part of your "brand" for lack of a better description. Eventually the guys will get it that if they want a show with you, they need to pony up and pony up fast before the timer runs out.

Private is where multiple guys can come in and pay to see you at the same time
Exclusive is where one guy will have you all to himself in paid.. nobody else can enter the room and interrupt your one-on-one
Usually for this reason, exclusive rates are higher than your normal private rate.

Guys who don't enter into paid chat, but still show up in the grey free chat area, cannot see your stream.. even though you.. and whoever has you in pvt can see your cam.. unless they are paying and in the top, paid, part of the chat.. they cannot see you when someone else is paying to watch. They can still enter free chat while you're in a paid chat with someone else.. but not see your private show. :) Hope that helps!

Grumble. I just tried every single thing I could think of to keep my shit from freezing. I finally decided to actually look on SM and it's happening on everyone's page. I really like SM, and I don't want to use another site as my main one, but this crap is getting ridiculous. If they can hire someone to design a new layout for every flippin' holiday, they should be able to hire someone to work out the bugs, so that guys actually want to visit the site and spend money. Grrrrr.....

In some way I am glad to know that many girls have issues, so they must act now and take it seriously. Other sites that use the encoder don't have the problems that SM has and they keep updating the software often in order to fix minor issues. When was the last time they updated something ? like 4 or 5 months ago ?

I always check my feed when I log in and any time someone mentions it, but most of the time the guys will just leave. Usually my regs are the only ones that say anything at all. Most of the time when they do say something, they're on a cell or in a hotel with crappy wifi, so I can't do anything to fix it anyway.

Hi girls! I am eight months pregnant, and I just signed up for SM. I read somewhere that it's good for niche girls, and I'm looking for a new "cam home" for myself for the duration of my pregnancy. I am currently on cams.com and it is slowly going downhill for me and checks are coming in later and later (anyone else on cams.com noticed this?!) and so I signed up for SM last night. Long story long: how long did it take to get accepted to SM and have you seen other preggos do well there? Crossing my fingers I fit in and can make bank. :) Thanks for reading.

One of the guys who did an exclusive with me today rated me 1 star, and this guy is usually cool. :( I don't know if it was accidental, or if he thought that 1 is supposed to be good, or if he rated me that because of the bad feedback problem when we did cam to cam. He's the one who insisted that we do cam to cam, and that I hear him...it's not my fault there was a loud ass screeching sound. *rolls eyes* Now I see that I'm no longer a 5 star host, and I'm down to like 4 1/2 stars. I messaged him about it, because now I'm curious why he did that.

I work damn hard to earn that 5-star rating, and if more guys would rate me 5 stars after a show (rather than be so quick to log off), that would be helpful to me.

Message support and tell them you don't understand why he did that....especially if he stayed a decent amount of time. Tell them you don't want that rating messing with your overall good rating and they will remove it :)

On another note....did everyone receive their Jan 27, 2013 - Feb 2, 2013 check...
I still haven't and my check always comes every Monday....now its Weds and my mail already ran so my check is 3 days late.

Yeah, when I do the math, it means that he spent over $50 on the exclusive session ($16+ in my pocket), and there's no way he'd do an approx. 9 minute exclusive if he WASN'T happy with how it was going. I'll message Support now. Thanks, ladies!

Usually the screeching noise/horrible delayed echo probably happens when I'm doing c2c with the UK guys on AdultWork. But I'm usually able to c2c just fine with other guys on the other cam sites.

The screeching stopped when the guy on SM turned off his cam, but I'm sure he could've just kept his cam on and muted his sound instead (and typed if he needed to). He was clearly enjoying the show, and had his dick out. When I started using my vibrator, that's when I noticed him jerking off even harder...lol. Plus, no one does a 9-minute long exclusive at 5.99/min. if he's not satisfied with how the show is going. And I've gone exclusive with this guy before, he's tipped me before, and as soon as he came into my public chat today he had said "I WANT YOU" (he hadn't seen me in a few weeks, and missed me). I messaged SM, so hopefully they'll remove the rating and won't give me a "Well, the customer is free to rate you however he wants" response...lol.

This is happening mostly when guys are on laptops where mic volume and audio/ speakers are on high levels so its interfering with each other. Blovely, when is ur cam doing that, when u check ur own room from viewer side? That is happening almost always cause again, ur own audio is creating that effect when u check urself from same pc while streaming. Hope it makes sense.

Yeah he should've just muted his sound..that's what my regulars usually do when that horrible screeching comes on. I've had guys get a 5min show and still rate me a 1. Some of them have come back to do another show and I asked them "did you rate me a 1 last time?". Some have said sorry I didn't mean to do that. But others straight up said "yes" like it was no big deal. I blocked the one's who did it on purpose... like Sir your not going to continue doing shows with me and rate me a 1 everytime. Thank you for your $$ and Goodbye to you lol. In your cause it sounds like he did it on accident but I'd make sure to tell him to rate you 5* next time so that, that doesn't happen again.

Yes it does it when I do cam2cam and when I check my room from another browser. Thanks for explaining I thought there was something wrong with my mic.

^^ I honestly believe that the ones that rate us 1 star and then come back and say "yes" like its not a big deal,think that 1 star is the highest rating.Its not clearly defined for them and I think some may misunderstand and believe that 1 star is the best rating they can give you,especially since the rating system only goes up to 5 stars instead of 10.Their brains arent exactly running at peak performance when theyre worked up/jacking off ya know?

Nonetheless,I still ban the ones that rate me 1,2,or 3 stars-anything under a 5 is unacceptable in my book.If they rate me a 4,I give them a second chance when they come back in,but I always confront them about it and tell them I will ban them instantly if they rate me any less than a 5 from then on out.
