Last time I looked at videos4sale it had very little traffic so I figured it wasn't worth it.

Did anyone see the new clips4sale blog? They're doing studio spotlights. Wonder how they pick who gets promotion on their blog and social networks.

Does anyone remember how years ago there were these tips for studios in the admin section? It was hilarious and cute. It showed pictures of a medium sized loft apartment and a sort of average car if I remember correctly, saying all this could be yours! It stressed the importance of waking up at 5am and making 30 clips a day and posting all day long in fetish forums. They took it down a few years ago.

SophiaSylvan - I did take your advice though... I'm showing my face in my newest videos. :) The site has only been up since Friday night and I've made one sale. I don't it expect it to go off with a bang. I figured it will take me a few months just to grow a following. Already I am thinking of remaking my newb videos because I don't like some of them. In just a few days of filming I have learned a lot. Today I spent most of the day duplicating/converting my current wmv to mp4 and loading the mp4. I still have about 8 more to do. ughh. This is time consuming but the hope is that the more often I do it, the easier it becomes.

im slowly making my way through this thread.... its huge! haha!

I currently cam on adultwork and i know you can sell clips/pics through there but im looking for a secondary place to sell. Im in the uk so i lose almost half the sale price, do many UK girls use this site and if not what would be a better option? I like the amount of traffic that c4s gets! it also seems quite complicated for selling customs due to $99 limit etc

Is this month slower for anyone else or is it just me? I've been trying to load a clip a day sometimes I don't get around to it but some days I load 2-3. This is my third month. I made $200 the first month, $300 last month but only at $37 right now.. Looks like I have to step it up to make at least $200 this month :-/

All of my sites have been REALLY slow. I figure it's probably because of spring break that's the cause, but I don't know. I've only made $30 so far this month on one of my sites, where I made $300 last month. It sucks ass :(

Last month was one of my best months ever. This month started strong but quickly went into the toilet. In this past 5 days I've made one sale. I'm use to at least one sale a day at worst so I'm really shocked by how bad sales have been.

For me month started not so good, 1-3 march i had no sales but 200-300 visitors and i was like -_0 v O_O where is my money? But now seems better!
I update once a day. I wish i could make 30 updates, but my imaginations not so rich.i do not accept some custom and requests, i have my believes which means "do not spoil". If you do one stupid requests, you will get a pile of stupidity!and gif wankers.

Last month was an amazing month. I got just over 10,000 hits and this month I am sitting at 3,500. I had 150+ clip orders and this month I am at a 1/3 of that. I've bounced around in the top 10 for one of my best categories from very little sales, that doesn't say much for how much other's have earned in the same category.

I've been updating every day with at least 3 clips of different categories and still am going every other day with no sales. Some days I am only earning around $10. I hope this clears up soon! Payday is almost here, so maybe things will get better.

03-12-2015, 03:52 PM
I actually wondering, if im n1 in the category is that actually mean that i earn more in that category than everybody else?

MissEgo
03-12-2015, 04:37 PM
I think Top Studio is based on NUMBER of sales in the category, and Top Clip is based on AMOUNT the clip has earned? It's weekly though.

Or it's the other way around, I can't find the thread where it says which is which. It might be the beginning of this one.
It's definitely on a weekly basis though, so it could mean you've earned more in that category in that week than anyone else.

SophiaSylvan
03-12-2015, 05:13 PM
Top clips are based on numbers, not sales. I've had a few clips in the top 50 overall clips and I've made more on longer clips sometimes. Tends to be over 30 sales per clip in the first week. Top 50 in categories are really random. I've been towards the top of categories when I was making not very much in that category. Depends how many are using it. I'm still hovering towards the top of some categories when I don't update those stores anymore. Just not a popular category.

I was just wondering if anyone could tell me C4S policy on hypnosis videos.

I think I remember someone saying something about the fact that you can do hypnosis videos but you have to call them something else but I can't remember all the details and was hoping someone could set me straight the issue.

Thanks lovelies!

top clips based on numbers? can you be more specific? according to c4s support if you are 50 top clip you have made at least $2000 in sales for the week with that clip alone.

Mesmerize is most popular, but you can also use Mind Fuck and Mental Domination. If you're playing the subject some top studios use Female Training and Woman Following Orders, I've used those, as well as Limp Fetish.

I think you're thinking top 50 studio. We're talking about Top 50 clips, underneath top 50 studios.

Hey, just starting on C4S and i've read this entire thread and made notes so I think i'm all set!

I juts have one question about GIFs. The C4S generated ones are shit imo, and I want to show more than just a snapshot. I don't want to use the 10 second preview thing because it would be 5 seconds of titles then 5 seconds of saying hi!

So the logical conclusion is for me to make the GIF myself. I've got the videos (mp4) that I want to use as the GIFs and i've been searching EVERYWHERE to try and find out how to convert the video into GIF. I've tried out quite a few of the free options but they're all shockingly bad quality, like worse than VHS! I don't mind paying for an app or program that will allow me to convert video into GIF at high quality, I just need to know which app/program will allow me to do this. I know it's do-able as I see it in all the top stores.

Any help would be massively appreciated and this whole thread is amazing!

SophiaSylvan
03-13-2015, 01:03 PM
And luna, if you do the 10 sec preview you can choose 1/4 way through the clip 1/2 way or 3/4 not just the start.

I *think* it's this:

but it's really confusing. You might need to be ONLY on C4S like with C4S Featured studios on the sidebar of categories. I might be speaking out of my ass though.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong but I cannot get decent gifs with that...I use still image gifs made from Photoscape.

Luna66
03-14-2015, 07:28 AM
Thanks so much for the suggestion, I have tried using it and like Katy above, it just doesn't work for me. They either come out 4 seconds when they're supposed to be 10+ or come out looking like they were filmed in the 70s, you can literally see each individual pixel even though i'm using the highest possible settings!

Thanks so much for that info Sophia, I had no idea you could start the preview wherever you liked!

I think i'll just go with still image gifs for now, I'm trying out Photoscape now, thanks for the suggestion Katy.

You're welcome Luna. Most of my clips have the 10 second preview from the start of the clip, the sound of our voice is important to some guys and I know I sell clips because of mine. There are Americans who really love an English accent, and English guys who want clips from English girls...it's something to make the most of :)

Do you think the preview helps you sell videos? I worry that if I offer too many previews that guys will use those small previews to jerk off too. I've have people tell me on other sites that they will play all of them one after another and jerk off. Kind of frustrating!

I describe my clips well i have a gif, what else do you want? I do not use preview, i offer more than enough! This is my pov on this particular situation. Who does not want to buy or want to cheap out they can go and " fap themself elsewhere".
Lets say...i film a clip this can take 10 mins and more, i have to edit, i have to buy a song to use for clips, i have to upload, describe clips and after all to put a preview. No thanks! I dont do bad quality, i have to do a makeup. So for me that clip cost 500$ people buy it for 10- and more....
No previews!
I got a lil bit bitch cuz i had 300 visits today but only 2 sales.....

Yes they do. It's only a 10 second preview and if you have it at the beginning, they're only going to see your introduction and get to hear your voice if you're using it. I wouldn't use it otherwise. Some guys would wank to paint drying and there will always be ones who get off on only the gif and description but some guys need to hear your voice or would be encouraged to buy if they did.

Hi girls, can we have a bit of a poll on average monthly traffic/click numbers for your store please?
I have been "live' for under a month, so a little goal traffic benchmark would be REALLY appreciated.

I need some kind of ball park on what is "great" "good" "average" "bad" etc.

So I used FileZilla to FTP my clips to C4S after fighting with their built-in uploader for a few days, only the clips are not appearing in the clip list when I go to add them to my store. Is there a trick to this that I am missing, or have I just randomly FTPed my clips into some mysterious black hole?

SophiaNZ, don't worry too much about hits when you're getting started. They will snowball as you add more and more clips and get a larger fanbase. It's always good to have goals though!

I'm in the good but not Top 50 great category. Last month was a slow month, 23,131 hits. I didn't update as much as usual and got sick. It's my main store which is the only one I'm updating now.

i am interested to know how you ladies cope with watermarking for different stores. Do you use your business name on everything, a cam name, the specific store url, or what?

I would rather keep my fetish persona seperate from camming as I do not show my face in any promo material for camming, but i do for my clips, which are totally non nude. It's all very confusing having different watermarks lol.
