I refuse to do free chat now I used to but I can't stand it. With SM you have to do the free chat don't you? That's what puts me off :(

I can tell that it is easier to deal with sm free chat than with aw free chat.At least that`s how I feel.Aw free chat guys are all like a broken record ,Im rolling my eyes and ban too much there.

I still cannot get justcamit to recognize my verysoft or either one of my Logitech c920's. I have to use the browser version to split cam. It used to work just fine but not anymore. I can keep using the browser version for now, but I want to be able to fix this.

ENoire
04-11-2015, 11:09 AM
I've found that what really works for me on AW is to alternate between an hour of free chat and and hour paid only.

I don't actually find paid chat all that taxing- definitely easier than SM. I find it easier to get people to go paid and can usually make at least £20 an hour doing this.

I just chat, smile, answer a few questions, ask them how they are, what brings them to my room, etc. and if I start to think they're timewasting, I just start ignoring them. Occasionally custies I've ignored will eventually go paid just to get my attention.

Also, I have my settings so that customers can only be in free chat for 5 mins out of every hour, so I don't have to put up with annoying timewasters for long!

Personally I love AW. I've not found it to be slow the last few times I've been on. I have the most fun shows there, higher percentage, and more regulars. I find paying custies are so much more polite too.

It is not quiet, you just need to keep your regulars addicted and updated so they come back and spend high amounts on you through tipping and time spent in shows. Do this and you won't even notice when the footie is on because there will always be someone in your room keeping you busy x

Phatgirl I use a c920 and it works fine on both the jci software and the browser version. Are you getting any error message or does it just not show up in the options? I remember when I was trying to use two cams (c920 and 9000) it would only recognise one if i plugged them both in at once but if i plugged the one in, got jci set up, then plugged the other one in it was fine.

PhatGirlDynomite!!!
04-11-2015, 05:15 PM
It used to recognize them. But now when I select verysoft there are squiggly lines across the broadcaster. When I select the c920 without verysoft I just get a black box. That's for the c920. But if I use a conference bcc950 it works. And an old c525 works. But I don't want to use those. So now only the browser works for my verysoft and c920. Its very weird.

:( AKA: there's definitely something wrong with Me. My "regs" are incredibly disloyal. It's been quiet for me since Xmas. No customers at all today.



EDITED... fuck this shit. I'm going to try to find some positive mantras to work on before switching on my cam, and will also look into the energy clearing that Katy mentioned. Sick of being down about AW when it was my only income for so long!

Kinkybitch
04-12-2015, 01:59 PM
I've not done too well today either but yesterday I did fine. I know my regs are pretty disloyal but the other day was quiet as my friend who does well even had a dip and raunchy rachel who is always in and out of grp and PVT was sitting there waiting longer than usual. I've tried uploading more pictures etc and I rarely get tipped on adultwork! My rates are 2 grp and 3 PVT I don't know maybe too high?

sexysusie
04-12-2015, 04:26 PM
Noooooo maybe too low!! I noticed when I raised mine to £2.49 and £3.49 (thinking fuck it, i'll concentrate on indie) I actually got MORE new guys buying shows from me. None of my regs complained or lessened the time they spent with me either. With so many charging stupidly low rates and the majority at 1.99/2.99 you stand out more with higher rates :)

Kinkybitch
04-13-2015, 12:15 AM
That's a good way of looking at it. I always wonder if I'm charging too much. I've upped my prices to 2.30 group and 3.30 pvt now so will see how I go.

sexysusie
04-13-2015, 02:16 AM
AW tend to have average to higher rates across the board for UK/ us girls than other sites. The site is also somewhat confusing to use and regularly has glitches and down days. Still the guys that love it stick with it. They could be on a cheaper site or free porn tube but they are not and that should tell you something! They are not influenced by price so worrying about your rates on aw is counter productive. Instead work on marketing offsite to bring new traffic and ensure you have plenty of new content and an engaging show for the guys that decide they like YOU! :)

OK, sod it, I haven't raised my AW rates since I was new, and I give a much better show now. Thanks for the insight, Susie.

Girls - I just tried the online version of justcamit but I couldn't see myself whichever setting I used, is that normal please?

For some reason I can't hear justcamit on my partner's laptop but sound is ok on everything else.

Anyone have advice on setting it up your profile so that AW automatically posts to your twitter when you log on? I have the box ticked, but it's not working...

No,is not normal,you should see yourself.
As for the sound on jci I suppose u did check if the sound is ticked in chat box?

Classy_Katy
04-13-2015, 06:33 AM
Yes, should have been fine for sound...there is an error message following an update of his laptop so it must be that but I searched before to try and fix it but couldn't find anything.

How do I make the online justcamit work so that I can see myself? I clicked both output and input and neither did anything.

Input or output both should show your cam but what browser are you using ?Did you try different browsers ?
In Chrome I go to videochat tv ,I ll get a pop up asking if I allow my cam ,allow,set the source with a right click on my connections tab and do the rest of settings(resolution,fps,log in details) ,in mozilla I wont get that pop up in browser asking me to allow or deny my cam but I ll get a small box where to allow when clicking the text in red that shows on the screen in the place of cam.

edit:Also on videochat.tv page right click and choose global settings ,it will open a window,in camera and mic tab you should check to not have ticked the "block all sites from using the camera and the microphone" box and if so ,tick the other .

Hi girls.
I'm new here and I've only just decided after a lot of research that I would start camming. I chose three sites where I would give it a go. One of them being AdultWork, because they're UK based and I live in EU so I thought that would come in handy.
I've been filling up my profile but I can't figure somethings out. Did the age verification just this morning. I'm trying to figure out the payment system.
So I read the site works with credits, but you can fill in your own rate per minute. What is the average models will ask per minute? And also how does that work since the payment system is in credits? The rate you fill in, is that the total amount you get as a model per minute or is that the total fee where AW will take a percentage off?

Payment system, so I found where I could give in my details for payment. Took a while to figure that out, haha. I read that they offer EU bank transfer too which is good, but I have a question about Payoneer. Anyone using that? The reason I ask is because the two other sites where I want to apply are MFC and SM who both don't do EU bank transfer, so I need to get a Payoneer accout anyway. I thought it might be better if all my payouts were in the same place. But I don't feel like Payoneer is that thrustworthy? The stuff that I read here, I thought they rules stated that you can't do anything adult related so how does that work? Do you get your prepaid card fast?

Sorry for the overload of questions. I try to figure everything out on my own as much as possible, but these were just a few questions that still felt unanswered.
Thanks in advance to anyone willing to help me :)!

To see what others are charging just go to the webcam tab and then directcam and you will get a good idea - anything from about 1.5-4 is about average.

1 credit = £1 charged to customer
When you cash out, which you must do manually each week, there is a 30% fee.
If you earn via directcam there is also a 5% fee applied at the end of each show.

Payoneer is fine (in as much as prepaid cards ever are) and works with adult sites. If you want to use this on AW I suggest you apply for it either on SM or MFC first and then link with AW. EU bank transfer will probably have less fees as payoneer only operates in $. That means you have an exchange from £ to $ and then from $ to Euro.

Badwlf
04-15-2015, 08:45 AM
Thank you so much :)!
Is there anyway to contact them. I did something wrong with my verification, they asked me to re upload, I tried that but the site is not uploading my files.
I can't find any email address, etc. I'll try again in a few hours maybe it's just something that's wrong with the site.

Ok another question what's the difference between direct cam positioning and featuring your profile?

sexysusie
04-21-2015, 11:45 AM
Positioning puts you higher up the online now directcam page for the hour that you pay for, while featuring puts you on the featured girls page for 24 hours x

Yes!^ I don't mind that so much, but it seems..frustrating just applying.:(.
Anyway. I was trying to get on there, like 4 yrs ago..it kept rejecting my ID or something..yet I got an forwarded email to answer a customer, that would've paid.
I tried to log in again, just to see if they still kept my account (my other accounts w/different sites are still active frm long ago..just sayin') & I guess I have to start the process again.
From reading just a few pages, it does sound great w/a lot of advantages. I like the fact there's multiple things you can sell, etc. I know all the other sites I applied for were pretty much a nightmare too, except MFC, & even that was somewhat irritating.
So I guess I may try again, hopefully they'll accept a USA driver's license..

Not sure whether upping my prices was right. The other day I didn't do so bad made A fair few credits in one day then the next I made 60! Today I've been on nearly 4 hours and made 33 credits. I'm not expecting easy money but this is getting ridiculous

Classy_Katy
04-25-2015, 08:03 AM
Yesterday there was 6 pages of girls online in the early afternoon...that is the most I've ever seen! This year it's been 5 pages when it used to be only 3. Adultwork is becoming more and more variable simply because of the volume of girls without the traffic coming in the match it. Prices really don't seem to make difference...there are so many girls charging a full range of prices. Also, when you're no longer regarded as new, your income can take a dive.

P.S. It's best not to give figures when we talk about earnings.

Kinkybitch
04-25-2015, 08:14 AM
Sorry wasn't bragging or anything I was just saying how different it's turning out for me. I'm having some really bad days. I don't know what's gone wrong for me. I'm quite fed up with it all. I don't know where else to use to do camming. I tried streamate but couldn't deal with the low prices you have to start at with. Maybe camming just isn't for me anymore :(

Classy_Katy
04-25-2015, 08:27 AM
That's ok, I realise you weren't bragging, it's just best to keep earnings a bit more private. It does make it hard when it's so variable, I'm still here though after 4 years and I've had 3 days in that time when I've actually lost money because I paid more for positioning than I've earned! All you can do is try everything you can think of to get yourself noticed and build up a base of regulars...that's hard for me during the day as those guys aren't always going to be around (the ones who are, aren't working!). See how it goes over a period of time and whether you can manage with the fluctuations.

You can contact SM and ask them to raise your prices. They don't always do it straightaway but it's worth a try!

Do you literally just disable the cam and lower your prices? Do people ever get pissed off that you don't have a cam on? Do you still do free chat?
