Just wanted to add here that after reading all these 9 pages, getting excited about naked and applying earlier, I was told that they do not hire international models. :( I'm from Canada btw, so I'm not sure why things are so. Aren't we practically neighbors? The weirdest part is that in the application process they have a long list of countries when you fill out your information; it however doesn't say anywhere that international models aren't accepted. That doesn't seem like good business practice on their part, especially if you spend time going through the application. I can totally accept a rejection based on the fact I'm not good looking enough to work on naked (I generally look like complete ass on all my verification pics lol), but the excuse I got... really...? I'm shocked.

Hey Blue,

I understand your frustration. We are currently working to start accepting International Models who sign up directly on Naked. We should start accepting Canadian models in the very near future... :)

Thank you for the input Fabio. I look forward to that day. :) Will naked maybe email all these "pending"/incomplete models to let them know when they can be active on the site?

Hey Blue,

Absolutely. We will be notifying all INTL models who have signed up once we are ready to start accepting their applications.

Is the encoder the same as the one on SM? Does naked reqiure the same internet/upload speed as SM? Because I cant use streamate at all because of this problem :/ Ill give it a try either way, but dont want high expectations.

Hey Neneko,

Not sure if Streamate uses the same encoder? We recommend 2 Mbps upload speed for perfect HD streaming. However, if you have slower Internet, you can try to reduce the video bitrate settings on the encoder in increments of 50. Do not go lower than 350. Also, reduce the audio bitrate to 56. If that doesn't work you can also use the web version of our model console but it won't be in HD...

Feel free to contact me at [email protected] if you need any help. :)

Do you get better traffic or placement if the encoder is used?

naked
03-19-2013, 08:46 AM
Hey JGB,

Yes, streaming in HD is one of the many factors used in calculating site placement. While it is not the absolute variable that determines your placement on the site, it certainly helps with climbing to the top of the site. Keep in mind that as more and more models stream in HD, users are really starting to demand HD streams and rewarding models who do.

I am able to use the encoder on naked even though I can't use it on SM. Go figure.

As far as placement I don't think (?) it boosts you immediately like it does on Sm. Yes, when I use the encoder I notice a HUGE surge in traffic BUT only in guests, not members. When I don't use the encoder I usually have 10-20 guys in my room with an average of 1-5 actual members. If I'm doing a goal show it goes up to maybe 30-50 total viewers. Now, when I use the encoder I have around 100-150 guys in my room with maybe 5-10 members. When I've done goal shows with the encoder I'll get about 250-300 viewers BUT not very many more members than usual. So I don't make more per show when I'm using the encoder but I'm giving a freebie to 10 times as many freeloaders. No thank you. Plus at around 250 users or so my feed starts to pause for a second every now and then, which might just be my laptop. So I've just stopped using the encoder altogether. I make the same and surprisingly my member to guest ratio is better without it.

Fwiw I always check my placement (like, obsessively) and I'm usually sitting in the top 35-40% of girls during the day and evening, 20-25% when I cam overnight. So not really great, I wish it was better but it's not awful either.

I will try this. When I am streaming for 60+ minutes non-stop my laptop fan kicks on. Maybe it will resolve with this.

Or it could be that too many people are in the room, as Courtney stated above.

Thanks Fabio.

I'm not sure what kind of laptop you have but mine is a two year old Acer Aspire so it's not too fancy. I can stream for 60+ minutes non-stop without using the encoder and the fan doesn't turn on, nor is my feed ever an issue. It only ever seemed to be an issue when I had too many viewers in my room regardless of how long I'd been online for. My upload speed averages 7-9 mbps so it's rather good. I actually don't want to use the encoder because it brings too many freeloaders without the increased paying traffic to justify it (I'm awful for thinking that way, I know). If changing the settings on the encoder doesn't work you can also try using an external laptop fan, they're pretty cheap but I hear they're very effective.

Hey Courney,

7 - 9 Mbps is definitely fast! In regards to the fan on the computer, the encoder does require more processing power, so the machine might need to cool down if it is working hard. As far as more freeloaders on HD, keep in mind that almost all paying members start out as guests, if they take a liking to you, they will in turn join and become one of your regulars... :)

If I didn't do full on naked cum shows at goal I actually wouldn't have a problem with hundreds of non-paying viewers watching me. Since I do, I personally don't feel comfortable with giving that much away to so many people. But, that is just me and my comfort zone. I dunno. Some girls always do goal shows, some never do them, I'm sort of in between. I liken in to being on SM and getting a gold show, but everyone can see the show, even the guys who didn't pledge. I think I'd feel cheated doing that, so I don't mind not having as many guests. Then again I'd really love higher placement so I think I need to reevaluate the way I do things.

An external fan can help but they are noisy, don't need more distractions.

My gripe is that I had keep banning the same jerks, over and over. I would like to just permanently block some guys. They can destroy the flow in my room by their shit remarks.
Also, would luv direct deposit, anyway for us to cut overhead.

^That's.... kind of awful. I think I've silenced maybe a handful of guys in the last half a year. Sometimes they come sit in my free chat after being silenced and will lurk for days or weeks, but I've never had anyone be so hateful to pay $5 a minute to make cruel comments. At least you got paid to listen to death threats? Cam custies can be so weird sometimes. Now I also feel lucky that I've only ever had to report one guy on there, some kid who took me private and within the first minute told me he was 14. Luckily I hadn't taken much clothing off at that point. I just froze, stopped what I was doing, and asked, "14 inches or 14 years old?" He left immediately. Screencapped and reported, not sure if they did anything about it, though.

I really wish I could play music in my room. I know it's against the rules but I ALWAYS see models playing music in free chat. Always. And I think it's so unfair that I am following the no music rule and they are getting away with it. It's harder for me to create a lively environment without upbeat background noise and I feel it puts the rulebreakers at an advantage. Not cool. I've had guys suggest I put on music to dance to and I say I can't, the site doesn't allow us to play music. And they always say, "But other girls do!" And I know they are right, but it's still against the rules and I don't want to jeopardize my account. I think the site should either formally allow everyone to play music, or they need to start cracking down and giving warnings to the girls who do. Make the playing field level for everyone.

Yes, I agree w/all. And the 14 yo? I'm sorry...eww. Every once in awhile I'll get a really awkward comment and I suspect they are young. I don't take chances. I just report those, even when it looks like I might be overreacting.

But Mr. Death Threat? Yeah, serious issues. It's sad that he had more control over my chat room than I did. He kept coming back and he started more privates after that (I mentioned him a few posts up). Six times. Made some poor guy wait who wanted a show with me while all of this was happening.

I saw a troll abusing a model for maybe 40 - 50 minutes , she couldn't silence him because he had a monthly membership , and he kept saying : " Girl you can't block me because I am a paying member " She didn't stop her show and I am sure she reported him , but it's pretty annoying to deal with that kind of situations. Models need the right to block - no just silence -abusive guys straight away.

Interesting.
Is this true? or was it just a gllitch?

A monthly membership should not allow them to escape blocking. In fact, I quit Naked for a long while when I discovered they only allowed the block to work for 24 hours. I only returned when they made it last 30 days.

It's true Laurielegs . The girl couldn't silence the troll because he was a paying member, and to be honest he ruined her show because everyone was telling him "shut up" . I was in shock as I didn't know that we can't block paying members.

I don't play music because I did read that it would affect my placement , but seems like some girls do it and they are still getting great placement.

Hi all!
Has anyone had this experience with Naked, of submitting an application, personal info, ID photos and all, and then not being able to login to check on your application? I'm even using the login info that they send me in my email address confirmation email. Is this something that happens to everyone while their app is being approved, or does it mean something else? I'm just hoping that my application was actually submitted correctly or that it wasn't rejected.

Thanks for any input y'all might have!

Hey everyone,

Sorry for the delay in response. In regards to silencing a member, the User Block functionality doesn't distinguish between member types, so the model should have been able to silence any user, premium or not. Maybe she didn't properly block the member?

As far as music being played on the site, we do actively notify models to not play music. It is hard to regulate, and there are some models who do play music even though they are told not to. I strongly recommend not playing music as it is against our rules and it is better to be on the safe side.

LolaKatz, I sent you a PM in regards to your application.

Thank you for your reply. I want to ask you something else . Now through my.naked.com we are able to contact guys who are in our friends list, but I am not sure if this option works for guys who are not paying members. I've sent some messages but the guys told me that they have not gotten any message . Where can they look for the messages ?

Several weeks on Naked now. Observations....
1) I'm not making a killing, but then again I don't do public cum shows. It seems that even those who do offer them aren't making a killing or don't always hit tip goal and they're at it. It seems pretty slow overall, even for the gals in the top row. Maybe I"m just on at the wrong times, so I"ll play with that.
2) It may not have a URL that has "free" in it, but the page does say "free live cams" on the main page, and they are...free to watch! Anything else, tips fellas. Enforce that ladies.don't give in to the "do this first bb and I'll tip you/take you private" line, because 99.9% of the time, they won't!!!! It's a tug-of-war with these guys. I just silence/block the annoying ones.
3) An extra 5-10 characters of space on the topic line would be great.
4) I wish we could edit our profiles ourselves; however support is very good about updating it for you.
5) A general mute button would be nice, having to mess with the encoder to lower my volume when I want to be seen, but not heard, is a pain. I don't want to lose the attention of the members in the room by pausing either. Even if I don't use the encoder, I still have to open up the cam settings, select mic, and lower the input that way.

Now, to set suggested tip amounts or not...that is the question....Some will say specifically how much they want while others just say "tip before your request"....I don't want some guy tipping 1cr to see my tits...but if that's all he can afford, then it's going to be a very fast flash.

Agree with pretty much everything you've said. I am also not making a killing there but I don't need to make a lot of money, so it works for me as a main site. Privates are few and far between for me but when I do get them I'm usually able to make them last so a few shows a day can go a long way. I like not having to do a lot of shows every day and still make goal. It's pretty boring to be in free chat for hours at a time sometimes, but it's easier on the punani. I don't think anyone on there actually makes bank unless you happen to place in the top 10 and get a bonus. If you need to make a lot of money I'd avoid naked. If you're okay with making average money I think it's a great site. Hopefully things will start to pick up earnings wise as more girls seem to be disenchanted with SM and are moving on to new sites, maybe a few will join and bring their custies with them. I've also played around with different times and it doesn't seem to make a difference. Morning, afternoon, night, overnight, I've done it all and seem to make about the same on average. I do have one three hour block that seems to be busy for me, but outside of that my hourly is pretty consistent whether it's 3pm or 3am.

And I do notice a lot of guys will tip less than the amount I've put in my room topic. Really annoying. If I ask for $5 for a flash and a guy says he only has $2 I'll tell him I'm sorry, can't do it. Then he'll tip $2 anyway. Ugh. I don't want to be a bitch so I give a SHORT flash as opposed to a nice, longer one like I usually do. I wish I wasn't so nice sometimes. I don't mind showing my tits or ass a bit but as far as pussy, I stand firm on not showing until I get what I ask for. If I put $10 for pussy and a guy tips $5 and expects to see it I'll say no, BUT tell the room that if someone else would like to tip the rest I will count it as one tip and flash. That usually works for me.

Know what I'd like? I'd like more increments in the tip goal. I don't like to set my goal higher than I need to because I think a higher goal intimidates guys and I'm less likely to reach it. If I want to set a tip goal of $120 I'd like to be able to do that, not be forced to decide between $100 or $150. It's not really a huge deal, though.

I wonder what you ladies are considering "making bank". I ran the breakdown and am pretty happy with my hourly average on Naked, but maybe I'm just being an unambitious n00b. (It's still much higher than the best-paying "vanilla" job I've ever had and no judgmental weirdo with no social skills is giving me a 6 month performance evaluation...)

I understand if no one wants to answer openly, and it doesn't matter much for my bottom line, but I can't help but wonder.

CourtneyRaine

I would consider "making bank" to be over $1,000/week. Personally, I don't know anyone who makes that much on naked except for the top girls of the week(end) who are given hundreds of dollars as a bonus on top of what they've earned. If someone makes over $1,000/week on naked without the bonus I'd love to hear it, as personally I don't think it's possible. This is strictly based on my own observation.

Ah, ok. As I'm at this point putting in strictly part-time hours, I wasn't worried that I wasn't making that much, and I wouldn't make that much at my current hourly average anyway. But I wouldn't be making bank, by that standard, with any vanilla job I've had, so thus far I'm not upset.

Not sure if the crappy weather elsewhere is affecting things, but I'm in VA and we haven't had bad where I'm at,but maybe the whole postal service is running a little behind. I saw on the news how 50% of the country is snow covered whereas last year at this time it was only 7% covered.

I got my check yesterday right on time, but I live in the Southwest; there isn't a flake of snow to be seen.

Sorry Kitty, I use the CMB paycard, not checks. I hope you got it. Claire, I live in the Southwest too and the weather is quite lovely!

So what do you girls think of the new daily contest? I'm excited! I don't think I'm ever going to place, considering I've never even placed a weekly contest, but it's super motivating knowing that every day I have a chance to get a bonus. It's a very *slim* chance, but it's something! It's just weird because so far this afternoon I've made over $50 (my cut) and I'm not even ranked in the top 200 models of the day. Then I saw on the login page, "We pay more than any site and getting started is fast and easy. Get 50% of every dollar you generate. Get paid every week with no delays. Most girls earn $100/hr and many earn more than $200/hr. Daily contests as well." Um... I have NEVER made $100/hour! Now I feel like a loser.

Based on your experience and observations, do you actually think most girls are making $100/hr, or is this more like how on SM it says "Earn up to $10,000 a week" and Maaaaaaaybe the top few girls are earning that? Even if they mean $100/hr before the 50%, well that I have done. I have earned $50+ in an hour (my cut) a handful of times but ONLY a handful of times. I'm much more likely to make $0-20/hour. It all averages out so I'm okay with what I'm making but now I am really questioning if maybe I am just a naked underachiever.

I moved here from Ohio, so it's a huge change and I don't know anyone here yet--but I love it!

Every time I've logged in I've made somewhere in the $20/hour range (mind you that's average, some hours have nothing, some are constantly busy). I'm not sure where they're getting that number from, unless they're only reporting that one hour that I made $100 ($50) my cut. I figure it's just hyperbole.

I've had $150 - 200 hours - just like the ad says ;-) - but then the next 2 or 3 hours are in the range of $10 - 30, so on naked I calculate my income per shift /day , otherwise I'd cry .
About the daily contest I don't think we are gonna see many new faces, it's gonna be great for the same top models.

Ahh, I am from NYC, desert life is totally different! Now I am curious where you are, I am in sunny AZ and it is AMAZING leaving my house in shorts and flip flops in March :)

Your hourly is also about the same as mine. I am not a top girl at all but I always place at least within the top 50%, depending on what time of day it is I'll place in the top 20 models online (usually when I cam overnight). So that's why I thought, why am I not making enough?!?!?! Actually I didn't even break $100 yesterday- well I did, technically I guess, but I'm in MST and their days run EST so the last few bucks I made were after the official cut-off for the day so they don't count. So I was just thinking, my placement isn't awful so WHY am I not making what they say I should be making?!

I'm also noticing that the placement of models has absolutely nothing to do with earnings, which I think is kinds of... odd. So for example there is this one model who is often in the top ten but she is always placed a few rows below me, and like I said, I haven't placed. She is earning more than I am so why is she placed below me? And this other model, she is placed above me but her ranking is always waaaaaaaay below the other model who's almost always in the top 10. Again, why? Makes no sense. I am happy my placement isn't lower because I do think it brings me more exposure and that is always a good thing. I just am starting to think that placement has no bearing on your actual earnings.

I just read this in another thread, and it's very bothersome to me: https://www.stripperweb.com/forum/showthread.php?182879-for-what-it-s-worth-US-Congress-Has-Scheduled-Cyber-Week-for-the-middle-of-April

It has to do with SOPA/PIPA/CISPA.

Once again, I believe that naked.com really needs to get on top of girls who are playing copyrighted music in their rooms! I love the fact that naked has the no music rule because I think it safeguards us from possibly being shut down due to copyright infringement. But, if they're not going to properly regulate rooms then what is the point??? My idea: if a girl is caught playing music give her a point. Three points and she's suspended for a day. I don't think models should lose their accounts over this but they need to know it is serious.

Same here.

I don't do public cum shows so I'm not sure if that's what it takes or not. I'm sure though that "most" models are not making $100 an hour (unless they are counting that as what they bring in to the site, not the model's cut of the money)?

I wish they would stop the models from playing music too. It's unfair to those of us who do abide by their rule.

^ See, I actually will do public cum shows if guys are tipping for it, but I'm still definitely not making what they claim. I probably do public shows once a week or so, lately it's been less. I did one on Thursday (one of my regs tipped the whole amount) but I don't even remember the last time I did a public show before that. I don't really put an emphasis on goal shows unless a bunch of guys are tipping and I realize we're more than halfway to my goal, then I'll start encouraging it.

I also CANNOT get guys to go group, it is so weird! Six months and I have still never had a group show. I think that's a great way to make fast money and I wish I could unlock the secret of getting guys to join. Every time I get a couple of guys to go in on a group we wait and wait but we can't get one started, invariably someone just takes me private instead because they get tired of waiting. Does anyone have any tips for encouraging guys to join group shows? I tell them how cheap it is, we only need 4 guys to join, blah blah blah but I can never get more than two guys interested at a time. I was also never great at getting gold shows started on SM, either.

I'm not making $100 ever hour either, but one day I made about $70 in an hour off a 20 minute private with tips and spy mode. I may debate doing 'some' toy shows in public, but only if my goal is met. One guy tipped the whole amount for me too, so I guess he wanted to show off and I didn't mind giving the room a 5 minute show. I just won't show my face while I'm masturbating during the public show, not unless I got an extra BIG tip, and i mean BIG..lol.

Courtney, I can't get guys to go group either and I suck at GS on SM too, so I don't do them often.

I find the crowd on Naked to be pretty hilarious. I can't get a GS going on SM either, so I'm not really "banking" on either site, but I find the guys on Naked to be a refreshing change from SM. Nobody seems terribly needy, I haven't gotten dick pictures, and with one exception my shows have been pretty long relative to most of my shows on SM. That one exception was a guy who wanted me to talk him into doing a show (very SM like behavior, really); all the other guys took me into a private quite abruptly, no warning or coaxing, usually just because they loved something about me that showed through in free chat. One guy took me into private after talking to me for a while, then hung out in my room and talked to me some more, then took me into another long private. I've had similar things happen on SM but the Naked guys seem to understand the deal more and don't act like I then somehow owe them special treatment.

Perhaps Naked doesn't advertise on dating sites...? No idea, I just hope whatever they're doing they just do more of it.
