Actually I never noticed that part of your post! I've never been called names either. AW just isn't like that in my experience. The worst I ever had was some nutter in free chat saying "Eww bad teeth", which of course made me and the entire room laugh as I had my face off cam at the time!!!! If you have experienced anything you don't like, you must ban the user from your room. Don't take any crap.

What u say, Susie,i do it on the site.Im not saying im doing it 100% right,nope,i make mistakes for sure and im sure Im not using all my potential and have to work more on that.One thing is sure,I am not sitting in front of cam waiting for them to pick me just because.For privacy reasons I dont advertise myself much all over the internet but inside the site I did what I thought it would be better and still working on it.Thankyou for a great post and for your patience:)

the clientele on AW has been going to shit lately. a few months ago i had nothing but big spenders and gentlemen. the last 3 weeks has been full of jerks.for a start im in the DOMME category yet i keep getting people enter private and say straight away "im horny bb make me cum" and then leave 3 seconds later when i point out im none-nude. im not sure why they are at my room if theyre not looking for a domme, without giving my name away it has got a word in it that idicates clearly what type of camgirl i am. my profile photo has me in pvc and is very clearly dominatrix style. and my strapline lists all the fetishes i cater to. this never used to happen. i would love to know WHY vanilla cumshow guys are ending up in my room. (i do not have freechat enabled so they are all coming straight into private).

I love that the JCI blog says that they will support the old version of the program till December 2013 and yet I was forced to update today. Also the blog just tells you to update with no further instructions on how to do it. Way to drop the ball on that JCI.

That being said, the new software seems super sweet. I was shocked that it remembered all my old settings from the last version of their software that I had just uninstalled and it let me log right it. Yeah, that is how a software update is done bb!

I did well on AW last week but so far shit this week! I'm not working the club tonight so hoping AW tonight will be good.
Should I raise my price?I'm £1.90 pm but I don't have a great webcam. Never had any complaints after/during privates, though?
I THINK I'm pretty good at what I do, so should I?

Yes you should. No question! I've said it before and will say it again

CHEAP PRICES ATTRACT CHEAP LOSERS! It can also put men off as they think you are trash.

Anything below £2 is super cheap for AW. The average is £2.50 (I even think that's low but then it really is just my opinion!)

i mostly charge 4.99 pvt. I hardly get any shows but when i do lower my rates to somethin like 2.20 i still get the same amount of shows but make much less obviously lol. i usually stay on for 4 hours a day and take home 90-170 credits (i do domme). i feel that people dont take u pvt becos of ur price. if i put on freechat i get ppl say to me "ur so expensive.... lol i cant afford that" but then i say to them "if u like i will change my rate to 2.00 for u right now and we can go" and they always leave. so like it just goes to show that it's not ur pricing its just that the guys they have no want for a show. most r there only 2 check out girls before hiring their escort services and a lot of them just want to beg u 2 open their cam in free.

Thank you. It's only the webcam that makes me feel I can't charge more. I'll sort that out right now.

a credit is like gold its the site currency for a dollar/pounds. the conversion rate for a pound is 1.60 usd so a credit on aw is worth 1.60 usd but keep in mind that they charge 35% conversion for payout so while we get 60% American girls get another 35% taken out so i think what u do is 60% of 1.60 usd then take what u get from that and take away 35%

60% of 1.60 = 96 so 96 american cents
now take away 35% of that ...
35% of .96 = 0.33599999999999997

so basically an aw credit is worth about 34 american cents if i did that right. not much better then working on sm ....

TeenageAnnie
10-11-2013, 02:13 PM
4.99credits = $4.69 or £2.94 my cut. thats how much i charge per minute. if you look at the cheap girls most of them are not from the UK. guys on AW prefer UK girls so we can charge more, i think they like to think they can meet us in real life. i know it's a lot to charge but the way i feel right now is that i really cant be bothered to even move for any less than that, and UK guys seem to really like me, i do shit on the american and european sites.

Thanks for working that out... I was going to need to figure that out for myself soon. I was also thinking that I might work AW when the dollar is weak against the pound, LOL. Not that I want the dollar to weaken, but it would at least work in our favor. Slightly.

URGH!! I've had a really SLOW time on camming AW lately, so slow in fact that I found myself reading the help section! And noticed in the top few recent articles the title 'have you noticed a drop in your business since the new version of JCI?' !! *argh!!*

YES!! Except I'm camming on a Mac so use the flashbased streaming version. Any other girls having low traffic issues at the mo? I even turned on freeview for a little while this afternoon, didn't last long as it's soooooo irritating and I haven't done FV for at least a year.

Is there a way to resolve this while camming on a Mac? The help section article seemed pretty much to say 'hey if you aren't using the tech that suits us then screw you' :(

Why would the new jci affect anything? :/

SexyAleks
10-12-2013, 08:36 AM
They relate it to the new entry speed, which means less time to load the video on the client's side. Which according to AW means less money for those who don't offer free preview, because the customer doesn't need to wait so long to see the cammer. "The client does not have to wait 20-30 seconds to see you and you do not get the chance to start chatting to them in that time to keep them in-session once your video appears to them."

1 credit is not £1 after aw cuts. 1 credit to you after aw cuts is £0.65 so for every 1credit u make on direct cam u take home £0.65 ($1.04)

SexyAleks

1 credit is slightly over 1 usd after aw's cut usually.

Hi there, there is an option in the settings that let's you exclude those that don't have an account. Just uncheck the box that says 'guest free preview' in my experience those guys are just cheap hangers on who never spend, and may even come in under a new 'guest ID' when their freeview time is up!! Get rid!!

hmm, not sure about that as it is a LONG time since I've offered freeview (did it for the first time in about a year yesterday when it was super slow, but only lasted 15 minutes). I know there's an option where only guys who have enough to cam with you are allowed in, I think it's if you select to offer live screen shots as your online profile pics when camming.

I think 15-18 is FINE, you should still have ok image quality. My broadband fluctuates, so I tend to be at about 28fps during the day but down to 15! in the eve.

No, it's not allowed to see their credit balance on AW, the software has this option deactivated. Many times we have asked about this to be changed, but they say we would start kicking out everyone with zero balance (actually why not, especially if they are annoying and begging).

im getting guys who are talking to me for less then a minute that seemed interested in me then after like the inro hru and stuff right before i start trying to hustle them into a pvt they leave. so they just have no money and the site is kicking them for me?

Thanks for clearing this up. I knew the conversion rates but I needed to know how much a credit was worth since it wasn't in Pounds or Dollars, but just there. Then I saw that one credit equaled one £ so now it makes much more sense. I was having these guys pay like, £1.99 so I could get like $3.18 per min. My thing is, English guys might not know that I'm actually getting $1.59 per credit so I need to charge them like I'm only getting £. I'll start a 3.99 credits, that will get me around $6.36 lol.

They are very, very, very strict about that. There was a big drama like 2 years ago where a lot of girls would say they are from the UK to increase traffic.

The way the site works is, guys see the girls from their country first. And its a UK site. So a lot of girls caught on and changed their country to the UK to increase traffic...

Not only that, but some girls were supposedly saying they escorted (in the UK) when they obviously didn't because they didn't live there. So there was a lot of scamming going on, supposedly.

In addition, there used to be an easy hack on this well-known forum that told men (webmasters, and otherwise) how to make a fake profile on Adultwork as a cam girl in order to make money pretending to be her. Content sales and fake escorting bookings I'm sure, not live cam obviously. A ton of these profiles got deleted. But it was very easy for webmasters or content buyers to make fake profiles with all those 2257 IDs they received, and they did.


So adultwork did a MAJOR crackdown, and is very strict about every single one of their rules now.
