I would strongly suggest trying a night shift. I have 3 kids under the age of 8 years old so I truly understand- and I beg you to try it. I make maybe 80-100 bucks during the day but $200 at night.

I am at the point where I am going to HAVE to try it. I've been making 50-100 a day IF I'm lucky during the day shift. And that absolutely will not work long term and be enough to cover any of my bills. I'll still need to do my day shift- I usually do around 6 hours. Unfortunately the earliest I would be able to start is 11pm my time when I know the children and adults will be asleep. The adults dont know exactly what I do because theyre not the most understanding people and well..its also none of their damn business. Itll be difficult and I probably wont get any type of sleep but hey we gotta do what we gotta do sometimes!!! This is what I risk being self employed and my old routine aint cuttin it anymore. So thank you!!! I think I am going to try tonight and if not definitely will start tomorrow and try for the rest of the week as long as I can do it. My savings is dwindling fast because of this and I'll be damned if I'm forced to hop back on cam like the day after I push a whole ass human out of my vagina LOL.

Jigglypuff, yupnit sounds just like my situation for a few days... I am a newbie still ( been camming for like 2 months)... it started slow for me but picked up and I was able to make some decent money for a newbie I guess, but I don’t know what happened. How long have you been camming for? Did this kind of stuff happened to you before?
I have a kid too, but I got a lock and locking him in from outside until I am done and go to sleep. Thanks God the door in his room is with a little noise reduction.

I started a year ago! I had a full time vanilla job at that time and I completely missed out on my new girl tag not realizing thats a good start. Took awhile to get some regs when I hopped on after work. Got laid off from my job so I started doing it everyday and it was going well after I got some regs, I was making more than I did at any vanilla job so I didnt go on a serious job hunt. I still dealt with the really slow days and the creepy assholes but it was nothing compared to now. Then I got pregnant 6 months ago and hid it on cam for a bit but then I started showing within the last two months and couldnt hide it anymore. When I finally changed it to pregnant I literally lost every single reg and I have not been able to build them back up very well. It was still decent money at first and then it just kept going down and down. I've found the people into pregnant cam girls are more demanding than the people I encountered before...and their requests were a LOT more strange and made me much more uncomfortable so I havent been open to as much stuff that comes my way now. Its a lot of men wanting me to breastfeed them with the apparent milk we all must get the second we get pregnant (rolling my eyes) and dudes wanting fake labor shows. Tried one and I feel like it just looks like I'm trying to take a bad shit. I couldnt do it lol.
I am going to have to get a lock for the door to my computer room!!

Oh wow!!! And you are making $200 per 6 hour shift consistently every night? That’s awesome!!!

Oh no, don’t let me lie to you like that. The summer slump made $200 shifts impossible but I’ve since returned to making $200 a night once school started. So yeah, all things considered, it’s been consistent.

There is no approx. number. It varies to largely for me to create even a guesstimate. And 80% of my customers are new ones.

Chica - Are you only on one site?

I know you directed this at Chica but I am definitely only on one site. I know that's hurting my earning potential quite a bit but I have have have to keep my privacy as protected as I possibly can. I know it's not foolproof but it helps a bit! I've tried a few token sites and my face got put up everywhere on knockoff cam/porn sites it was ridiculous. SM is the only one where I haven't had that happen more than once or twice and its been very easy to get removed. I want to try some other sites but not sure what all I can try since I cant exactly do Twitter promo to get myself out there and SM doesnt allow other sites to be promoted.

Only being on one site really wasn't an issue until fairly recently.

NitaBaby
09-19-2018, 06:28 AM
I’m definitely one just one site. I don’t make money anywhere else and no one seems willing to explain how they bring in the big bucks on token sites. So instead of spending 8 hours shaking my ass for 50 bucks/week I stick to the only site that pays my bills.

I wonder if there is some sort of mentorship program for making money on sites like Chaturbate. I really don’t see how ppl are doing it.

I noticed with the token sites like Chaturbate, to make the BIG bucks, you either have to be a couple, or have to have that typical look that society says every girl needs to look like to look good, or have the best damn personality ever (not saying thats a make or break cause I know everyone is different but that seems to be some of what I see). Or have something really different from everyone else. Also they have to be really heavy on marketing and twitter/snapchat promos and have a really appealing/flashy profile with pics. That and/or they have to have games or an exciting show and it just seems like sooo much work doing it by yourself and I dont have the funds or desire for a team. And the more people in the room the more the men with money will usually flock to cause they want to show off their money in front of everyone. And they have to be really engaging pretty much the whole time and I just..dont have the energy to entertain that many fucking men that won't pay. And then the freeloaders will get a free cum show cause of the big tippers and I dont think they should get shit for free with their leeching asses.

I've tried Chaturbate and Bongacams and I made three dollars on chaturbate and THIRTY THREE CENTS ON BONGACAMS in six hours each on an overnight. And then my stream was up everywhere and I didn't even get to do anything cause I wasn't showing my pussy in exchange for gas money that won't even take me more than a few miles.

It’s kind of stressful because if it wasn’t for SM then I wouldn’t be a cam girl at all. Indy sites are sporadic at best and, like you said, freeloaders get all the benefit of someone else kinda-sorta tipping me. Nothing makes me feel more like a $2 hoe than a tkn site.

Same here. I just wish the traffic was better for me on SM. It's really shitty how we only get 35% (For me it's around 30 or 32 because I have daily pay) and yet we cant get any damn traffic for this to be sustainable. I was okay with such a low payout because I was told the rest was going to traffic and everything else so that means I wouldn't have to do much promo. Yeah... for the top girls, not me. I wish they would up the percentage since their turnout is so shit now.

How do you get daily pay?

How do you get daily pay?

Well I signed up with a site that nobody knows about cause I came across it randomly when looking into becoming a cam girl before I found Stripperweb. They're really good about paying everyday that I work and very nice but I wish I would have done it through Boleyn Models cause they have the option for "pay stubs" and advances and a better website/support and are in the US. It's harder being through someone in another country than I am cause the pay actually comes the day after the day it's sent. I think that's who most of the girls here go through.

I signed up on their website as well but I haven't really had the ability to switch my account through them yet. Cause basically I would have to email my site about cancelling my "contract" and then create a new one on SM and I don't know how long that would actually take and I'm not currently in a place to take days off. It might be a quicker process for you since you're not actually under a studio like I am you should check them out!

Ladies, yes I am only on SM cause from what I read about other sites I don’t feel like I will be able to make money at all... like CB for example... I just don’t feel like there will be any guarantee guys will give tips. I know it’s never a guarantee with camming but at least SM is kind of a private based site.
The traffic was less for me Recently on SM but I also noticed that unless I stay active in my room I just don’t get people to talk to me too much. But lots of girls I see are just sitting there without even smiling.... that’s why I am wondering if my strategy is wrong. My outfits are always sexy, trying to wear different thing every day, makeup is nice etc... I just feel frustrated not to sit there and just smile so that it’s enough for guys to talk to me...:(
Few weeks ago I was getting way more pvts and my tactics were not different... I don’t dont know what changed... feel like for many girls it’s way less efforts to get pvts.... I might be wrong... do you ladies greet people when they come in your room or you wait for them to talk to you first?

I wait for them to talk to me first. I realized it was a waste of my time personally to say hi to everyone that pops in cause half of them just leave anyway. Maybe I should start that up again saying something to everyone but I noticed it drains me far faster than letting them talk to ME first. I also don't give them too much attention if I can tell they're just gonna waste my damn time.

I'll talk to them when they ask how I'm doing and do the back and forth a few times, but then I ask what brings them to my room and if they're up for some fun and if they say they are but dont do anything about it or change the subject I ignore them until they bring up tips or a show and I'll try again.

I don't know if that is why I'm starting to lose money but it was working for me before! Most of the guys are just freeloaders so I subtly hint for them to tip or take me private in the sexiest way I can and if they don't go for it after one or two times, fuck them. They might surprise you and do it but most times they wont. I just cut their convo short and say let me know when you're ready to play cause I'm horny blah blah blah or something like that. They usually leave and never come back so they were never really looking to spend anyway.

I am good at weeding out the freeloaders but maybe I am too "good" at it and scaring away the actual spenders or I just don't attract the big spenders anymore. Idk. Guys change all the time. I am sure we will all find actual spenders! Just wish we didn't have to deal with the losers in the mean time :D

09-19-2018, 12:29 PM
It's funny because I used to be very submissive before camming. And now I just have this like "fuck you I will cut off your dick" attitude to any man that even remotely tries to order me around, free chat or personal life. LMAO.

Good day Girls. I wanna say something related with schedule, earnings etc. Personally, ive tried all times: evenings, mornings and nights. For example, some performers say that evenings are really good or nights are the best but for me, only i make money early afternoon and evenings because nights suck for me the majority of time. Also, some performers have goals around 100, 200 or 300$ daily but, we have to analize how much they charge per minute, premium or exclusive if is SM ofc, why this? Because not every girl on cam have the same rates per minute or their schedule doesnt work for every single model. Many factors make a variation in earnings and every performer is a world. What works for one maybe doesnt for the another one. My advice is to try all the times posibly and stick with the one that gives u more customers etc. Also, some performers can reach their goal in 5-6 hours because maybe they have been in this camworld for years, have a stablished base of regular customers or their rate per minute is higher than other girls. For me personally, the prices we charge are an important part, why? Because if we compare the girl that charge for example 1.99 minute vs the one that charge 3.99, 4.99, 8.99 etc (higher rates) these ones will make way much more money. But, not always the estrategy that works for others will works for me etc. Just try a bit around and find ur best. Xoxo.

I realize what thread this is but I wanted to share a little of my experience to help those who are finding it difficult to find your groove.

1. We all have dead days when there is no hope for goal. Even the models who only do large goal gold shows often try and try until sometimes they log off with nothing or a much reduced goal. That is a dead day for them.
2. There are days when the glitches are in full force for some of us and not for others.
3. There are some days where you just have to stick it out, and things turn around. Over time you will be able to figure out which is which for you.
4. We all have guys coming in and out ignoring us. These are often just room hoppers. Don't take it personal they are just hoping for freebies. I personally greet most but then ignore after. I prefer to make them understand what it takes for my personality to shine lol
5. Define and own what you have to offer! Have pride in your specialties, make your bio represent what you offer, present yourself in the way you want to be treated! It isn't enough to just be a pretty woman nowadays, you need an image/niche/something to thrive in this industry.

I was randomly looking at my stats when I first became full time around a year ago. I never had a problem with the amount of my checks but looking back I was working some LONG hours with way too low percent for my liking now. But unfortunately that was necessary for my goals and hours today. It allowed me to build up some wonderful regulars and to decide my style. I know this is much harder for those of you with children and am not trying to minimize that. But just remember there are ebbs and flows and sometimes being successful is a long game. Hope this was helpful for some of you!

I was making at least $25hr average during my day shifts, now I'm not making anything. Nothing on MFC in 4 days and $25 on SM in 3 days. Wtf!?!? I have to save up and move in 2 weeks, plus pay bills. And I'm too fat to dance, so that's not even an option anymore. Now I'm going to have to work nights on no sleep. Fuck all these cheap, time wasting bastards! I hate them all. I just got hired for a regular job and I'm gonna work the hell out of it, so that I can be done with this shit. I can't wait to quit these trash sites.

I am having the hardest time getting my groove back. Last year I started camming and only got to do it for a month. Just when i was getting regs i lost my home. I am starting again with a new profile. The old was too revealing about my real identity. I'm just starting back and really struggling to get my groove back. I just get frustrated and log off. Guys begging and i keep making noob mistakes. I logged off today after pissing off a tipper and giving away a cam2cam on cb(yeah why didn't i ask for a tip for that...) and came back to a cleared room. I have only been working again for a week and need a pep talk. Cause I know I just need to stay online...

Oh also wanted to add people getting impatient over things like making sure you music is working or something suck too.

Tues-today have been awful.....i mean just awful. Was super proud of my makeup today, as i went full cat-eye, lashes, etc....pretty much just so i could stare at myself all day. Not a peep on Skype. Just nothing, anywhere. Yesterday I got ONE show. All day. One. I dont know how i went from killing it last week to a desert this week but its freaking me out....I sure hope my night shift tonight is significantly better, cause bills are coming up and im starting to get worried. 3 bad days in a row is killing my vibe.

I know you directed this at Chica but I am definitely only on one site. I know that's hurting my earning potential quite a bit but I have have have to keep my privacy as protected as I possibly can. I know it's not foolproof but it helps a bit! I've tried a few token sites and my face got put up everywhere on knockoff cam/porn sites it was ridiculous. SM is the only one where I haven't had that happen more than once or twice and its been very easy to get removed. I want to try some other sites but not sure what all I can try since I cant exactly do Twitter promo to get myself out there and SM doesnt allow other sites to be promoted.

Only being on one site really wasn't an issue until fairly recently.

Sorry I was looking at your picture and then was getting confused about who was asking what. But here is my 2 pence for what it's worth. I've been camming now for 2 years. From January of this year, I have never put a toy inside myself and only got fully naked a handful of times. I'm not saying getting naked or dildo'ing yourself is a bad thing. For me though, I just hate it and it makes me sore and because I'm such a clumsy person, I feel so unsexy on cam. Anyway, I started out on CMD. Became a top model within a few months, and built up a solid following before all the drama of one stupid model who tried to ruin the owner's reputation. Anyways, my income dipped significantly, so I branched out - Skyprivate, LCMS and Niteflirt.


Now I've started to branch out more by making clips and using Adultwork which is providing to me a good source of income. The most important thing is, learning to adapt to changes. For instance, when I first started out, I didn't know anything about fetish shows or JOI, CEI etc, but guys kept asking me about it. I always said " I don't do that" because it was so alien to me. Then I started looking more into it and gave it a go one day. It was brilliant and definitely one of my favourite things to do. I have since branched out by doing Hypnosis and bagged myself a whale by offering those, as well as a lot of loyal custies who love Hypnosis. Having as many things in your arsenal has been proven really important to me. So make yourself some awesome profiles and own it! Maybe private Indy sites will prove better for me than the big box sites.

Don't get me wrong though - I do have some super slow days and weeks, then I ask myself 'Why'. Usually, it's because I haven't updated any of my profiles in so long, or been super lazy with my hussle. So I go away, update some new pics, work a little on social media, make some new clips etc. Deep down I'm a super lazy person and could do SO much more to increase my income...but I don't have the motivation right now. I'm happy making a decent income a month to pay rent, save some money and support my family. I understand you want to keep your privacy protected and that's definitely understandable but the best way to do that is by signing up for a few good Indy sites, and not showing your face on your profile pic. I recommend - CMD, LCMS and Niteflirt. Work a few different characters on Niteflirt and read up on the threads. There is a wealth of information on these forums. Put in the hours and diversity your time and efforts. I promise you it will pay off. :)

i dunno, like why do they think that i want to talk to them for free? i don't....I've been pretending for hours and they just don't get why they aren't seeing any ass or titties or getting any dirty talk...

YES! You sound like me! Last week, Monday and Tuesday were awesome! Yesterday and today??? WTF?? DEAD. ALL time-wasters on Skype. Guys on SM telling me how horny they are then leaving once I suggest a show. Guys wanting to just chat or want free peeks. Fucking ridiculous. I'm panicking, too.

I realize what thread this is but I wanted to share a little of my experience to help those who are finding it difficult to find your groove.

1. We all have dead days when there is no hope for goal. Even the models who only do large goal gold shows often try and try until sometimes they log off with nothing or a much reduced goal. That is a dead day for them.
2. There are days when the glitches are in full force for some of us and not for others.
3. There are some days where you just have to stick it out, and things turn around. Over time you will be able to figure out which is which for you.
4. We all have guys coming in and out ignoring us. These are often just room hoppers. Don't take it personal they are just hoping for freebies. I personally greet most but then ignore after. I prefer to make them understand what it takes for my personality to shine lol
5. Define and own what you have to offer! Have pride in your specialties, make your bio represent what you offer, present yourself in the way you want to be treated! It isn't enough to just be a pretty woman nowadays, you need an image/niche/something to thrive in this industry.

I was randomly looking at my stats when I first became full time around a year ago. I never had a problem with the amount of my checks but looking back I was working some LONG hours with way too low percent for my liking now. But unfortunately that was necessary for my goals and hours today. It allowed me to build up some wonderful regulars and to decide my style. I know this is much harder for those of you with children and am not trying to minimize that. But just remember there are ebbs and flows and sometimes being successful is a long game. Hope this was helpful for some of you!

It would be amazing if more publications like this one arrive in this place.

Logged into Skyprivate widget, guy wanted a show, calls, does a ten minute show and.....its not showing up in my call history, account, or email. Like it never existed. So basically i got naked for this motherfucker for free. I swear I am so almost done with Skyprivate. It was my only show today too.....I needed that fuckin money. I never know if Im going to get paid bc the SP widget only works half of the time. Im so over it.

This happened to me today too...I was lucky the guy was a reg and paid straight away after the show, but I have emailed support about it. You can ask the guy to make a transfer to you, they can do that and it will show up in your account like a normally.

Make sure the little plugin tab is showing when they call...so you can see the money being taken from your account.

its showing at the bottom of my screen that i was logged in, i have been logged in all day. half the time the tab keeping count doenst even pop up so i never know if its working or not. He's a new guy, and foreign, so i guarantee he isnt going to pay me shit. Im probably just shit out of luck and the only goddamn show i got today was a freebie. I emailed support, but I guarantee they wont do anything but basically tell me im shit out of luck. This whole week can suck a fat one. I have had more issues with SP than its even worth, I need to stop logging into a widget that never works, its just hard to let a log in-n-leave-it side egg alone. Fuck. Im so fucking upset. It wasnt much, but that would have been $37 my cut and on a day I havent made shit thats a huge fuckin deal. I cant even pretend to be not upset and give SM a go tonight, I think Im just going to log off, do a manicure, facial, and watch the newest American Horror Story before I lose my shit.

shit...this happened to me today too, the plug in was showing in my icon tray but for some reason I didnt get the pop up and I was already stressed out and pissed because I got screwed out of money thru ifriends too right before that show so I didnt realize it till it was too late...luckily it was only for a 4 minute show but still.....

After I realized what happened tho and the show was over, I looked and seen the pay per minute in my icon tray but when I went to click on it with my mouse, it disappeared???

Sorry this happened. That really sucks. But ask him to transfer the money to you anyway - and just tell him the amount. Doesn't matter it he's foreign, he needs to do it. If he doesn't- Skyptv should transfer the credits to you, that is your money afterall and they probably got a few anxious, pissed off models emailing them about it today.


I've always known the little payment tab to appear after the new plugin was installed. If you get a show there again before support gets back to you, you can either do a 'test' to check it. Or just ask the custie to transfer the money directly to you beforehand. At least then you know then that the money is in your account, and you can work SP like CMD.


It's been a tough week for me too...yesterday was horrendous but today picked up massively and made up for it. Hang tight - take a night off if you can, and try to relax. Tomorrow is a new day and if you can add more eggs to your basket then I'd do that too. It really helped me to branch out further. Don't worry - You've got this!

Email support about it. It's your money - and time. Screenshot the Skype call with the member's name and they should transfer the credits to you. If they don't, I can see a lot pissed models...

Thank you, for the advice, support, and kindness. The way this week has been, I def needed it. Gonna take off the rest of tonight and rest up for a camathon tomorrow and Saturday to make up for it.

Usually about 10-15 guys in 10 minutes, but it varies. Most are in and out of my room multiple times a night. I've been on for 2 hours and I've made $10. I could scream right now. I need 3 grand in 12 days. Idk how I'm gonna pull this off.

Just now it’s been 10 mins and I had 2 people logged in and out!!!!
