Yes, I thought she asking about featuring on the homepage & not the hourly positioning.

Classy_Katy

There are so many ways of highlighting your profile on the site and different ways too, to view who is online for different services.

Also, daily featuring doesn't get you on the homepage, that's (service) of the day - in the centre. The daily featured cammers will show differently to customers depending on how they access webcam - from the centre cammer of the day section, they see who is online first and have to click the featured tab to see them. From the webcam tab along the line at the top, they see the featured ones first. If they do a directory search, they see the featured ones first. From the top left live AW TV or mini site on the right, you don't see featured cammers.

There's a difference too between accessing online webcammers from the top left and from the centre. At the top left, it's group first, then everyone in free, then everyone in paid only (with those positioning at the top of free/paid only sections), which gives greater prominence to those in free regardless of paid for positioning. From the centre, it's group then anyone who paid for positioning, then everyone else.

Aww thank you...and yes I meant when you pay high for positioning and end up on the from page. BTW what part of the homepage do you show if your lucky enough to achieve this?

I have often tried to bid for 'webcammer of the day' 'directcammer of the day' etc but got outbid. But it seems from what you guys have said homepage doesn't necessarily mean busy on direct cam so perhaps I won't try this.


I used to bid 3 maximum and see a huge increase in traffic but now it's the same if I bid 1, I saw this change around a year and a half ago, at the same time bidding got so out of hand not sure whats happened there?>!>!

Classy_Katy
11-11-2018, 05:11 AM
I've never done the xyz of the day but I can imagine it would be worthwhile. It's the daily featuring for camming that I find isn't worthwhile doing, they're two different things.

If you get the first slot through hourly positioning, you appear on the top left of the home page. The xyz of the day is in the centre. The daily featuring is not on the homepage and it varies how you see those.

Wildone18
11-11-2018, 05:32 AM
Yeh ive tried featuring and it hasn't made a difference to my earnings. Neither has going into free preview...ive had better days with free preview off.

Funny I guess if a guy wants to cam you he will regardless of many factors!

Every time i went free, all i got were freeloaders and ins and outs.....none really stopped to talk or something, with few exceptions, so from there on, i never went free anymore. What i did see, is that charging 3/4 (grp / prvt) wouldnt get me many clients, so i went back to 1.99/2.99 which dramatically increased my sales to what it was last year and im happy with it.

philyt86 - This tit puts through 0 credit skype bookings. Obviously I spotted and changed it to my usual rate (he hasn't since confirmed lol), but warning those who may be newer to this. He has 102 feedback, some of which mentions that he's done this before. Watch out x

I've had this guy try and book 3 times this last week for phone . Twice he tried to book 5 mins for half the price and once for 0 credits. He must be doing the rounds. 6Toes is another that does this a lot and might even be the same person. 6Toes has 104 feedback.

Hi ladies,

Not sure where to ask this so will ask here! I'm on holiday in the US for a month, is it possible to just do DIRECTIM here or is it frowned upon? I'm a bit scared of logging into my account for fear of being suspended if they see me logging in from a foreign country.

I know a few ladies do travel camming abroad and wonder how they get round this with AW?

Any advice appreciated!

Thanks x

PS: I'm from the UK.

Don't log in yet! Send aw an email to [email protected] to request change of location (DO NOT LOGIN). Webmaster will change your location and email to confirm. Then you can log in and work as usual. You must do this ONLY when you have arrived in the new country. Include your User name and user ID in the email and send from your registered email address x

Hey Susie,

Thanks so much for your help earlier although I think I may have got myself suspended? Although I can still log in to my account (can't view my profile through the mobile site but can on the desktop website). I didn't cam/DIRECTIM or anything but I logged into my account just to send a message through the 'contact us' form (this was before I saw your message). Basically just asked them what I asked here and got this e-mail today:

Hello

Thank you for your email.

It is with regret that we have to inform you that we will no longer be able to support your membership of AdultWork.com.

No doubt you will be up to speed with the news regarding SESTA and FOSTA.

The legal advice we have received is that until such time as the position is clearer, we are to suspend all advertisements on AdultWork.com, regardless of what services are actually being advertised.

Clearly this situation has wide reaching implications and is far from ideal for all concerned. We are sorry we cannot take a more robust stance in this matter as is usually 'our way'.

We would like to thank you for your custom and loyalty and wish you every success with your endeavours henceforth.

Regards
The AdultWork.com Team

I don't even think they read my message :/ I was really curious about the rules/laws regarding camming abroad. I know plenty of girls do it whilst on holiday within Europe so thought it might be okay in the USA.

What if you are traveling around and just want to log in to see sales or respond to messages, is it not allowed??

Anyways, thought others might find this post useful. Seems as though they are pretty strict about it. From what I've gathered so far if abroad, don't log in to AW and don't use VPN's to get around it.

Yes...that will be why you got that email. It's because of FOSTA and SESTA that they no longer have US members on AW.

It's best to email them before you go away and check if you can access from that country.

It feels like their income has taken a plunge and they are looking at ways to "market" themselves, re-brand even.

I had this user too, he put 5 credits for 5 minutes, twice, when he done it the 1st time I rejected it and went to block him but before I was able to enable the 'block' feature, he bunged through another/same booking. However I had blocked him by then so the next day the system appeared to automatically reject the booking. He now has 103 feedbacks, with 1 listed as neutral. Am surprised there is no negatives, however as SS says if you read some of his recent feedback it reveals he has past form for this trait!

p.s.

Just realized, the negative reviews are under the 'Feedback only' tab...as that was also what was in my feedback (if I'd wanted to leave feedback), I think you get that when a Booking doesn't take place. I didn't bother leaving any type of feedback, I just block people like that. I don't give them a second chance and as I could not leave negative feedback I did not bother, am sure some of these guys get off on it (the attention, even negative attention!), that's why I don't bother. Any time I spend on them is chargeable.. if they had been a paying client then of course they deserve feedback!

Yes - This last week has I think worst week I've had that I can remember. I've been doing late nights and it's been shocking!

It would be great I think if one-way cam worked in Direct IM. I've a fair few guys asking me to watch their cams and frustrating that I can't do that for them.

Surely it's not impossible to be able to enable that function to work in this day and age.

I've done this by switching to DirectCam and not using my separate webcam...I have a sticky over my built-in cam, so they can never see me through that. It's a pain switching over but it's a faster option than skype.

Seriously considering getting a Macbook pro. I remember in the past returing a Macbook Air after finding out I couldn't use JCI with it, only the lite version which of course stops you being available on mobile (How shit is that, seriously?!). Has this changed now does anyone know? The laptop is not primarily for camming and I do have my main machine still but it would be nice to still use it for a bit of cam. Anyone using one successfully with AW?

alexismay

How do you get around the fact that you can't offer shows to mobile users on AW though, as mobile makes up 70% of the market, or hasn't that been an issue for you? Oooh while I have you, how noisy is it (fans etc)? Thanks hun

You have to use JCI Lite right, or are you able to use the downloadable full version?

The Lite only allows desktop/laptop etc users to view you, not mobile phones or ipads :( When you're available for directcam you can go to https://www.adultwork.com/MyDetails.asp and it shows up in green which devices you are available to, like this:

Re noise I have a big beast of a lappy and it can sometimes be very noisy, just wondering what the Mac is like (I remember the Air being totally silent)

11-25-2018, 08:50 PM
If i remember correctly JCI Lite was used on windows on a laptop or pc and JCI or otherwise known as videochat.tv was used for mac book pro, im not sure about the mac book air as i have never used one. Also i remember reading that Mac Book pros have stronger and better processors for streaming than the other options. They are a bit more expensive than the Air ones but seeing as my ex paid for mine then i didnt care, lol. I was not aware that mobile users make up 70 per cent of the customers on AW, can i ask where you got that information from?

sexysusie
11-25-2018, 10:34 PM
Justcamit lite is videochat.tv, the one you have to use if you're on a mac (any type). What I am really asking is if that is still the case? or can you now use the downloaded justcamit software.

Alexis when you're next on directcam on your Mac, go to the my details page and see if all those icons under 'online for directcam' are showing up as green. If you can get someone using a mobile or tablet to also check they can access your room that will tell you for sure. I would love a definitive answer to this.

Re mobile usage most people now use their mobiles to browse the web far more than desktop, and they browse for longer. So if you provide any sort of internet based service via a website or other online platform, you need to have mobile accessibility as a top priority.
