Hey Tash, sorry to hear that. Have you checked your internet speed and that your webcam and sound is all working correctly? If you're making that little I'm thinking there may be something wrong with your set up that means guys are not seeing your profile or cam feed once they get in?

This is interesting. The thing I'm getting here is that to charge high AND get shows you really need to be offering kink / findom / femdom. Vanilla shows have much more competition and are therefore better priced cheaper.

Would that be right? Or is anyone doing brilliantly at very high rates offering purely vanilla shows?

Intriguing! :)

Before I type this out, I would like to mention this isn't based off experience as I have never been a vanilla privates based model, only free cam site vanilla.

I however don't think it's true that you can only charge high and get shows if you are kink/findom/femdom. I think it's just more normal to charge higher for these things as they are less available and more specialised. So femdom guys expect to pay higher where as vanilla guys don't expect to pay higher.
However as a vanilla model, I do believe you can charge high and still get the shows, it may take slightly longer to build the clientele but with a clientele you will be able to achieve it.

Think about this, porn is free for any man who wants to see a girl masturbate. So why do some men choose to pay when they don't need to?
Well usually this is because of several reasons:

A: They have a specific fetish that they can't get so easily on the internet, how they want it.
B: They have no fetish but they just truly like the girl and want to have that sexual experience with that particular girl
C: They want the girlfriend experience
D: They have some kinda morals enough to pay for their porn and don't want to be cheap asses (rare)

So if they like you they will pay your price, regardless. It's just about having patience with that higher price to find those guys who will keep coming back for more and more.

Hey susie, yeh it’s so annoying and yes deffo something wrong as I’ve been on the site 2 years and offer more services than ever such as phone, blog, pvt gallery, on more hours but yet I get people that I haven’t seen for ages come and say ‘hey where have u been’ or ‘I’ve been trying to get in your room for weeks’ -_- my takings are about a quarter what they were last year and I’m doing triple the hours!! I’ve tried all the advice on the help article and had an engineer out think some kind of server issue but not sure what exactly!!! Anywayyy I’ll continue trying to fix but whilst we are on the subject of price, I’m vanilla and get the same amount of calls at 0.99/2 as I do at 2.99/3.99 Infact I make more when higher as when the call CAN get though people at the higher price actually want a full show wheras I find it expected to complete a show in 5 seconds flat at the lower. That being said if lowering your price has increased your takings by say double then of course I would stick to that, it just does not impact me at all!!! Neither does working a free room, Infact my best days have been with free off, strange aye but I could be one of the few plus I have tech issues so I’m prob not the best example!!!

That's a great answer thank you! I wasn't making any assumption with what I said, only that what I've read on here seems to point to that being a main factor in pricing differences.

You make an excellent point about guys being able to get so much for free, why would they pay? They pay to get what they want, whatever that might be. I am mostly vanilla and have found (personal experience) that charging high I get very, very little business. Perhaps I would if I held out longer but it's not viable for me to sit with no earnings for any length of time and I'd rather charge less and earn something.

I admire the ladies who charge more and get it. I also think we should charge what we are comfortable with and not judge others because we think they are too cheap / too pricey. We all run our own business as we want.

I love your last line about the guys that have morals to pay for porn, where are they? I think I saw one, flying with a pig overhead just now... :)

I mean at the end of the day we all need money to survive and if god forbid tomorrow all the femdom kinda guys was to pay no more than x per minute and I was left sat there with nothing, then of course I would charge less.

I thought I would throw this suggestion out there to you, perhaps you could create a secondary persona on a separate site and charge more per minute and compare the difference and see how that feels.

I know many girls (including myself) who have a vanilla persona. I still have mine I just don't work that persona as much as my femdom, I seem to have more fun with my femdom clients than my vanilla ones.

Ahh we all get that. Just tonight I had two guys say "wow, never seen you before!", and i get regulars tell me they cannot get into my room or cannot call me. It's very annoying and has been happening for years. Have you tried using the browser based JCI instead of the software? You won't be able to service mobiles/ipads, but may find it a more stable connection. You could also try going back down to a smaller window size if you are currently offering 1280x720, quality will be lower but it may help you? Worth a try.

- Re vanilla/ femdom, if anyone would like to look at my profile just pm me for the name/link, i don't mind you having a nosey. I do offer sensual domination but I am not a domme or femdom, I am pretty much vanilla. Don't lok for reasons why you wouldn't be able to try higher rates, just go for it and you might suprise yourself x

I've just re-verified my account with AW...I was leaving too much money on the table by not adding this egg, but man it's so damn confusing! Haha. A couple of things I'm confused about :

- 1.) I purchased £10 worth of credits and became 'featured' on the SMS part. Then I have bidded on the Directchat for today, but I don't see a way to bid on booking a webcam show...I don't have directcam yet...can you not bid to position yourself higher for guys to book a webcam show?

2) My account is telling me I have 0.20 credits left lol, but it's still allowing me to bid on the directchat which is over 0.20...?

3.) Random Questions : Is it better to set up directcam and just run it to start with? Guys are only contacting me as they want to do 'meets'. I'm not an Escort and don't have that feature on there.

1. You can't bid for positioning for prebooked webcam shows, you can only feature your profile for webcam on a daily basis.

2. The minimum bid for directchat positioning is 0.30, if you press place bid it won't accept less.

3. Yes, directcam is the busiest option and you can be online for prebooked webcam and directchat at the same time. You will always get men emailing you about meeting, they get on off on the idea. It doesn't matter who clear you make it on your profile that you never meet for any reason. Just ignore them, they're wasting your time.

Thanks Katy!! I'll do this then. Does it ever get stressful for you when you cam and then someone calls you? I guess you could just put your phone on silent then press '2' to reject it if you have a show or something?

I feel AW is more vanilla based. I'm a fetish domme but the amount of guys who call me wanting sex chat and I have to tell them I don't do that...I guess after a while they will realise :)

I just cancel the call if I'm in a show and I exit directcam when a call comes through if I'm not in a show.

Had been a slow week for me until today which has been amazing :-D So if you're not online then get on! :-D

I got other things done at home though that really needed doing. and I feel better for that.

What a horribly bitchy and unnecessary thing to say. I don't think anyone needs to see that. I'm 'Cheap' on AW being usually 1.50/2.50 and have been doing this for 6 years and very rarely go through slow patches, and never noticed a difference in the summer.

I charge 1.49 for phone and then 1.99 for group and 2.99 for private cam. I only have 1 feedback rating so far, although I'd left feedback for everyone else. It's frustrating as my phone seems to keep cutting out all the time during calls so I can never finish the call properly. Anyone else experienced this?

Don't worry about them not leaving you feedback - A lot of them never leave it, even regs but I always leave it for them so they can find me again easily. Sometimes the calls do drop for some reason. I have one guy & it always drops with him but it always rings back. I think it might be their own signal that's causing it rather than a Direct Chat because it always tends to be the same guys it happens too.

That phone price should ensure fetish guys so I don't know why they're not coming through. When I first started, a phone chat cut out and the guy left me negative feedback saying that I'd hung up on him, when I hadn't. I don't leave feedback unless they do first, except when it's a regular - some can be assholes when it comes to feedback.

I have tons of issues with phone on aw, actually had with my landline and textplus when i was using android, on the other hand, it worked great with nf, now that i have an iphone, it works great with aw and it doesnt with nf, so back to skype on there. Not sure whats up with that.

Kristen_Krystal
05-27-2018, 05:34 PM
I don't think there's much point in charging 1.49 for Direct Chat because if you up it to 1.5 then you won't pay as much in Direct Chat fee's. Under 1.5 and you pay more as it's assuming you'll get more calls. Personally I didn't get any more calls when I started out on the phone chat at 1 credit a minute.

Calls cut of automatically after an hour - it's just to safe guard the client if he forgets to hang up.

I always try ans remember to leave them feedback thanking them for their call. The only time I don't is if I don't want them to call again. They have to be on the phone at least 5 mins ( I think) to be able to leave feedback so, if he's on that long then he must of enjoyed himself.

I think sometimes @Sylvy Direct Chat can be glitchy. I had I guy a week or so ago wanting to call and even though I was available, he kept getting a message saying that this provider is not available. He ended up making a booking instead. How many I lose through this glitch I don't know.

Does anybody know how to find the call log on AW please? I can't find mine - I've seen it in the past but I just can't find it again.

It's 4 minutes for feedback...it used to be only a few seconds for DirectChat.

I've had asshole feedback after a guy was in cam for 10 minutes, went away to buy more credits and then came back for another 10 minutes.

Kristen_Krystal
05-28-2018, 03:28 PM
I don't leave feedback for them on cam unless they're a regular or I feel they might become one. I can never remember who was who on cam much of the time & I guess its the same for them so, I think leaving them feedback just reminds them they've already seen you.

They're worse on US sites for leaving shit feedback. I once had a guy rate me one star and he'd been on the phone about 30 minutes. Don't know he just didn't end the call if it thought it was that bad. Crazy they are some of these men :)

The new site for clients is here and it looks great. The best part is there's now a clear way for them to go private from the app 😁

That looks really good. I hope it helps with the drop outs from phones and tablets

Looks like it will be good for those of us who are positioned right at the top. And for when we're in group.
Doesn't seem as though you can scroll through very easily.
When it gets to the bottom of the thumbnails there's no button to load more. Although I figured out that if you go right to the bottom of the page and back up it loads more thumbnails. So hopefully they will iron that out!
Other than that it looks good and hopefully we'll all see benefits!! :)

Is that just for mobile? I tried to load it on my laptop, the page of performers loads then quickly disappears, then I get a message saying to contact support if it keeps happening.

It's in beta so don't think it's completely rolled out yet x

Switch on 'infinity scroll' then everyone is on the first page :grouphug:

Just from having a quick look, i didn't see the infinity scroll button? Surely it should be obvious to customers who are browsing? I'm wondering if this is another way for AW to make even more money so that positioning becomes even more sought after and as such prices for poisoning increase due to more demand from being on the first page of this new site?

They have a new marketing Director (I think thats his title) he is very well known in the Industry for being extremely good at what he does. I think this is him improving the site experience personally
