AND THERE WE GO!! Perfect example!! I've watched "New Teens...", "Eating Pussy...." and "Slave..." sitting at the top 3 for about 5 mins. In drops "Your Bouncy...." at number 1, and MINE slips in UNDER all the earlier vids (which were sitting there BEFORE I uploaded, cos I checked) at slot FIFTEEN.

"Wife fucked..." (black basque/corset) was in slot number 1 and on homepage just before I uploaded my vid, to give you an idea what I'm talking about if you look within the next couple of hours or so.

I will definitely have to try an early morning upload, just to test my theory.

Short hair, fake boobs ? Your not the only one, I swear I use to wonder that shit all the time. I think its her daily regulars who are always keeping her in private. Updating your pictures and films regularly is a great way to start. It might shock you as to which main pic drives traffic in and which repels


You once mentioned you're on a £30k a month earning plan, so why wonder about how other girls get popular?

I don't think it's healthy (financially or mentally) to look at other girls and wonder what makes them so great. You'd do better to emulate her actions (such as fantastic social media marketing; regular working times, etc) than to look at her and wonder what's so special.

In a time when there are so many girls out there, you need to stand out and be difference. Being generic won't attract new men.

if anyone could just take a look at my profile and let me know anything obvious that needs changing xx

The only thing that jumps out at me is that your watermarking of your 3 main profile pics is a bit distracting. I know many girls obscure their pics with their watermarks but it could be worth making them less "in your face", so they see you first and your watermarking second. Also, I think your main pic may look more toilet fetish than submissive...I hope you don't mind me saying that (I make toilet fetish clips so that springs out at me).

You off something alternative with your messy play, so you can get that service ticked. Don't forget erotica too...you could write or do an audio recording about your messy adventures or anything else. You can feature those things too, along with your blog. Blogs get read a lot...I keep forgetting to add to mine! Instant message too for when you're not camming. I might be tempted too, to pad out your profile a bit with the best feedback you've had from clients. I hope that helps a bit.

Well I am *UP* this week, been really busy for me (but that is comparing MY this week to MY last week, and that again is in comparison to MY last few weeks/months). I had an awful 7 months up until last week - literally was just scraping the 50 creds limit for requesting a cheque each week! - but this week and last has been a relative breeze. Nowhere close to many ladies' earnings (and still less than minimum wage), but it's a start and it's not been like pulling teeth.

Well I've not had the best night of the week so far. A couple of audio issues but I think that was the guys not the site. I'm so tired but so buzzing too! Can't sleep just yet! I've experimented with upping my pvt rate by 50p so will probably die a death now!

I do think maybe my daily targets are lower than many peoples though.

I've been splitting SM and AW and as a result sitting in free chat on AW. I made a ridiculous amount of money Saturday morning. While I'd rather not do freechat as it stands I don't think I can make much as a new girl without it.

I charge 2/min group and 3/min pvt. I had a couple cheap arseholes complain this morning but I tell them I look for a clientele with money and cheapos can move on. There are tons of eastern euro chicks offering it all for less than 1/min (no shade, they're probably still banking). Move on.

Question about skype bookings: this guy sent me an offer with 0 credits filled in then I rejected and told him why. He emails back saying I should fill in the credits when I respond back.

Dude is trying to scam me right? And get a show for free? I think I remember reading he can complain and they will adjust it back to what he offered?

The guy is talking bullshit about skype...you can change it but you shouldn't have to, he deliberately set it to 0 and was trying to scam...the system automatically puts in the correct amount and he should not be changing it. Never give out your skype name...they get it when they confirm the booking and always make sure they confirm it as the last step.

I'm doing a little experiment to see if using AW as a main site for a while could be viable for me, so I'm doing a personal "AW-only-diet" challenge until next Friday.

I like it as a splitting site, but it's been hard until now to justify the time off from SM. Now my placement there has tanked after I took a holiday, so it seems like a good time to investigate other options.

Don't let me down, AW.

How much should I charge if I am just starting out on aw? And could someone explain how the credits work? Im on sm but aw is totally different than other sites:(

I would take a look at how much the others are charging but be aware that a lot of Eastern European girls are in groups that set low prices for them. I would charge highish as you're new...AW guys like fresh blood and you'll notice on this thread that girls suddenly wonder why they're not earning as much as at the start, it's because the guys no longer regard them as new. Play around with your group prices, having a lowish group can get you a lot of guys in at once but don't charge too low as you may only get one in at a time, most charge 1-2 credits for group. I would never charge less than 2 for private, you could probably start at 3+...just see how it goes. I depends on how much you need to make and how much time you have...I work the worst time of day and only 3 or 4 hours, so I have to be a bit competitive with my prices.

What do you mean "how the credits work"? One credit is £1 to them.

Girly_Girl
07-24-2015, 07:03 AM
How much is one credit dollar wise in the usa? Like for example is one credit = $ 1?

Luna66
07-24-2015, 07:25 AM
1 credit = £1 for them to buy. £1 is around $1.55 right now. For you, each credit after the DirectChat 5% cut and Adultwork's 30% cut is £0.65. £0.65 is around $1.01 right now.

So each credit is about $1.55 to them and $1 to you (your cut). So yes, 1 credit is about $1 after their cut. You'll need to keep up with the conversion rates though because they're constantly changing.

It takes me hours to get ready and I still do it even when is bad,so you are not the only.It is in your power to make money on aw.Put on quality shows so you make regulars,pay for placement,update profile with pics and vids,DO FREE CHAT IF YOU ARE NEW.Play with your rates,set them accordingly to your looks and type of shows,invest time because sometimes it can be slow and you cant always make money in two hours.Dont rely on aw,sign up for other sites as well.Camming is not easy money,it takes a lot of effort .Even with efforts camming will still be hard at times.It is what it is and you have to keep positive.There are not best days/nights,you have to find the best time for YOU.Best times for me are when my regulars are around.Did you build enough regulars?If not,work on that.This is where the money come from,mostly.

Thanks for that :) I think I just need a night off it to be honest my kid is not sleeping at all and i'm tired out. Funny thing is in one week I've made about £350 so that is not bad for a first week that is with two totally dead nights I just had rather unrealistic expectations a friend kept telling me how you make loads every night so thought I was doing something wrong. In free I just get time wasters i'll hit it tomorrow night for sure. I've read through all of the threads but i'm still a bit confused about what other sites are good in the UK? I've joined MGF and Dreamlover for extras. I've built a Twitter but i'm not sure how much you are allowed to mention that with AW its in links on my profile but really don't want to be getting banned! I set myself up as a posh sub maybe its not the best persona but everyone else I looked at was doing horny bitch type things so thought i'd go for something different.

There is a clientele for sub.Camming can fuck your brains so yeah,take time off when you need it.I just read in another post that you are new.Then you have no regulars.Is good to have expectations but keep it real though.There are good and bad weeks and you have to deal with them.We all deal with them.Your friend might be estabilished on site already while you are not.Never compare yourself with another girl.While another is banking you might get pennies and the other way round.Find what works for you,what you are comfortable with and stick with it.It really takes time.As for twitter you can only have it linked in your profile but.Add more sites.
If you prefer private based sites like aw and have a good connection, try streamate.If you like to entertain lots then try CB.Having a second site will keep you busy while waiting for aw.

Brilliant advice thank you i'm so glad I found this site. She dips in and out of it and currently isn't working. She says she only takes her top off and has made mega money i'm not sure quite how much of it is true. I haven't told her i'm on it i'm keeping it just to myself. At the moment I think its safer only I know. I've got some really good contouring make up tips from on here and am wearing a blond wig when my hairs black. Apart from the fact no one would expect to see me there I really don't look all that like me so i'm thinking tell no one and if anyone asks.. Denial! I'll have a look into streamate thank you.

Forget looks and type of show. Start out HIGH if you're new on AW. Guys there do not choose based on price, at least very very few of them do, go £3+ for private. Also bear in mind group is not so popular on AW as other sites. Many of us choose to make group rate therefore at least as high as other girls private ;)

There are no guarantees busy times. The best times to work are the best times for YOU! X

UK girls work on the same sites as everyone else. Some are easier though to get paid on, mfc and mgf for example both offer global bank transfer to UK via payoneer, and daily pay is available on SM. There are candycrib (crap), and camwithher (selective) in the UK and that's it. There are a few other crappy sites that are just based on the phones/babestation model but they pay pennies.

This is what happens...girl starts on AW and makes some money, tells friends she's raking it in, friends join and earn money, friends worry why they're not raking it in, number of girls increases on AW, first girl is no longer regarded as new so customers drop off and wonders 1) why she isn't making as much anymore and 2) where all the new girls came from.

That is one of the factors.Plus,you might know or not but aw does not promote camming or us cam models in any way.It is primary an escort site,if there s no promoting for camming ,of course there' s not much traffic.Traffic there never been amazing,is not a big box site like sm,cb,etc.Those sites bring the traffic,i'm guessing aw traffic is just guys looking for escorts and some enjoying webcams as well.
