Do I have to have an app before I broadcast, or can I load one during my show?
u can do it before or after but theres some kind of timer on it if u start it before u go live and every time i started it i had to do it again after i went live so i always go live start my apps then get down to it .

Yea I have seen these contests. Many look cute, I don't think you have to change out the costume daily. At least I have seen some that have not. But some have. I have seen only one day of costume contest and they never changed.
I never participated in the contests for me it's too much work. I never won anything in my life no matter how hard I tried.
Get dressed up, be on cam and email Shirley. They need to see you.

Just focus on this and you'll do fine. He just wanted complete control over me and I told him at the beginning of us talking he wasn't getting that.

I had guys do that to me on MFC. They'd be like, "You need to show your boobs if you want to get tips" lol. And I'm just like... I don't see many other girls doing that and they make money just fine.
But the one guy on CB that was helping me was actually being genuine, but I kinda think he's hoping I tip him as a reward lol.
I made him mod for a week? anyway.

all i get on MFC and CB are bottom feeders and rude guys who think bigger = budget i just dont have the patience to deal with it right now and the amount of tokens i was getting i was making about $5-$10 a day on those two nights doing nothing but dancing in my underwear for hours (4-6) because if i didnt they would just leave the second i stopped or not come in at all if i wasnt

Rant.
I was on and it was dead 3 guys and some guy pms at first it's all normal talk like a customer. Then he's like you need more followers (no shit it's only like my fourth day) and said some cam persons name (can't remember and didn't check them out) is up to 9,000 followers with my help. Then he was like do free shows and guys MIGHT tip. I was like no I'll keep going with flashes for tips or making a cum/naked goal. I had just signed on and within like 5 minutes I was taken to private from some random guy I've never had in my room before. So I think I'm doing ok since it's only my fourth day on there and I always get at least one tip and one private. He's like lets talk on skype and I kept asking what is gonna happen on skype? This is what happened on skype: 3500035001 I wish I would have checked out his profile to see how many followers he has. I kinda remember his name so I'm gonna go and try and find him.
I found him! He has like 200 followers. In his profile he has tip for requests yet wants me to do everything he says! Then he has screen shots of tips that are 150 yet only 16 people in his room. How can you get some one 9,000 followers and only have 200 something yourself? Sorry I'm just kinda in a bad mood from this jerk! Guess when I told him it was only my 5th day he could get me to do what he says for free cause he's been on the site for a year. He's only 18 but been working a year. After two mins into the convo my bs meter went wayyyy up.

I'm approved on streamate. Adultwork and Imlive are acting weird for me. AW keeps saying my verification pic isn't correct. I submitted every day for like two weeks straight and I had everything on there so I gave up. Imlive says I'm registered when I put my email so I try and sign in and it says incorrect email. I'm going to email their support about that.

Seriously you are going to get many guys who act like him. They are freeloaders! What he meant is if you do this and that in free chat it's going to benefit him. Ban or silence his ass. Even after he leaves his name is still in your chat, so you can still ban. Ignore BS talk and do your own thing. If you start listening or wondering too much about these guys they will ruin your hustle. Ignore, silence or ban. Ends it all.
PS and focus your attention on customers (Blues) not greys unless they go blue for you. They have nothing to offer in free chat or a PM.
Good luck.
gummy
10-02-2013, 11:43 PM
You can always shut off the greys from speaking as well in the settings if you didn't already know.
Although I only suggest that if you have at least one ore two blues interacting otherwise the chat will die and you such having to butter people up in order to get them participating.

I know this is a redundant question...but is anyone making good money on Chaturbate? I used to cam there soon after they first opened and made decent money, but didn't really give it my all. Now with Streamate being dead every day I'm thinking about trying it again. I'm just really nervous about going back to a token site. Any advice would be awesome <3

it takes time to build up a fanbase they dont like tipping until they consider u a friend. u bring them into ur room with ur looks then u make them tip with ur charm and personality. It is a slow buildup on that site u can build ur fanbase but i would advise you to find more pvt based sites. sign up for imlive and cams.com and naked. then set aside 2-3 hours a day to be on cb until u start seeing some real results and add a little time to more time to ue shift the more u can consistently make money on there. I honestly dont think anybody can survive on cb just because the site goes thru dry spells every once in awhile and and if u relay on it it can be very bad. do u make clips? indie camming. but this is just camming in general always have ur fingers in at least 2 maybe 3 big box sites a free chat some pvt only whatever u can manage then sprinkle in content and PSO indie a few passive things but thats maybe just me? i have two comps one to work SM and at lest one other site at the same time and my old POS comp that barely runs to run my passive stuff and take message. NF indie messages on yahoo etc it makes things a tad less overwhelming do it like that

Thanks so much Snowy :) I'm already signed up on imlive and cams but don't like either one that much and don't really make any money on them when I split cam. I just want something I can be more active on and used to really enjoy Chaturbate. I realize it's gonna take some time to build back up my fan base...even though I know there are still some guys on there that remember me and follow me (I still have 654 followers...just don't know how many are still active members). I've split cammed there a few times since. Streamate has just gotten to be so boring. I would try MFC again, but my cam score has dropped so low that I doubt I'll be able to recover that one.
I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet. Just needed some advice from you ladies that are successful on Chaturbate...if there are even any of you at all lol.

Cams.com is not so bad. They do allow chargebacks but seems to be very few. I had maybe one in a years work. I would give them a shot and have fun. Support is great I have found with cams.com
Chaturbate is a like hate relationship with me and probably other performers. You see some "odd" stuff people are doing (still it's allowed nothing gross) and think if you can ever compete with that. It's tougher than MFC for me, because they allow couples and boy when a couple comes on Chaturbate and is giving good close up head, they may dominate the site for a time. But remember, not all members are into couples. I know I said one day while on this forum to watch the first three rows, or something like that, and I still think that is good advice. What's cool is the next day however that same top performer can be doing the same thing as the other day and now is listed near the bottom of the page!
Followers are great! But if they are all greys they will only get you to the top of the page if you have 1,000's of them. Which is a good place to be, but you do not have to be there! I go to the middle or near the very bottom of page and see many members in a performers room and she is getting many high tips! It's a roll of the dice on Chaturbate, if the blues like you and find you (some are not on daily or just cruising) have something in common they will hang out and tip. At times just talking in your room a guy will roll through and keep tipping. He's showing his appreciation.
I get (gosh this is nice but annoying) members that always seemed to roll through my room and tip out 100 or more tokens and never say HI! Lol. They left. It happens, be happy and speak of him. I had a whale (to me on Chaturbate a whale is a guy who keeps tipping over 700 in my room) who I thought I had hooked only to come back a few times and say hello. :(
Don't take anything personally. These guys have many many people they can tip, if they toss you a nickel, it's one more you did not have. I'm not proud, I did well. Made my share of hitting number 1 with lots a damn hard work, not willing to work that hard again, lol. Besides I am single, a man would help me more I believe on Chaturbate to make money. You want it, Watch these ladies and go out there and take it. :)
It's always up to us. The members are out there, Chaturbate has grown and still growing, while many leave. If you rake in $100 a day and work 5 hours I would think you are doing good. Or $50! This depends on your budget and what you do on cam. With Chaturbate they give you many options, use them. Oh and the members really like the games! Turn the greys off for that.

I've made $500 in the last 3 days, it's been very very good lately. I shoot for 32,000 tokens every pay period, so this has been a great start to a new pay period so far. CB is difficult, because there's so many NEW tags popping up lately, but once you build your base of regulars and actually chat with people, it's not bad at all. I've been camming there for over a year now and I consistently make the same amount of money every single pay period and if anything, I have actually been camming less than I was before!

Hi :) I'm new to camming on CB regularly and I've had so-so experience. In the past two weeks i've made $80, not logging on every day though, due to school/family stuff. I did notice that a majority of my money came from privates though, my public chat can be full of free loaders at times and it's frustrating -_- I do a lot to gain incentive to tip but it always either ends up in someone taking me private or me not being able to make a goal. Recently though I got a few new lingerie pieces & redecorated in my room, I'm excited because everything looks a lot less boring now, plus new things to wear on cam is always fun lol Going to try out more private based sites soon and see how it works out :) Wish me luck!
gummy
10-03-2013, 11:41 PM
Hello Chloe :D
I really do suggest you look into a private based site if doing privates is more your thing.
On chaturbate going into privates are NOT the way to go in my opinion you need to stay in free chat to make good money. I have turned off my privates and group shows because I rather have a guy tip me one whole amount we agree on for me to give him a private password show because then I know for sure I'm not being taken in for 2 minutes for nothing while the all viewers in my room leave.
And like I stated earlier I also do a lot of peep and box office shows which is a good alternative to privates.
There are always going to be the freeloaders.
Always.
I mean sometimes I get 700+ people in my room and maybe 30 are blues and out of those 30 only five and frequently tipping plus the random big tippers you can get once in a blue moon.
I do indeed wish you luck ~!
Happy camming
xD

Well... I dunno about not flashing at all. Usually if you do nothing the guys wit the tokens leave to another room and your left with whiny greys.
I think box office would be better then peep show in your case. You sell tickets for a set price and a minimum about of tickets for the show to start. for example if your goal is 500 you sell each password ticket at 10 tokens and the show will only start once you sold five.
Peepshow calls for more teasing in my opinion but you can always try :)
(the bingo app is also pretty great if you don't want to flash frequently but don't mind doing it once... I tried this while wearing a ugly baggy sweater and saying once we reached bingo I'll take the top off you can usually make a lot because it's based on guys guessing bingo numbers with their tips )
Would it be a bad thing to sell each ticket for more tokens? Just wondering...
gummy
10-04-2013, 01:05 AM
Of course not! You can sell them for how ever much you want just keep in mind the *usually* the higher the price the less people will buy. But that doesn't mean less money. If you wanted to sell for let's say 50 tokens you might sell how many tickets you put as the minimum for the show to start but perhaps not as many/no extras.
Also I just realized my math was wayyyy off in that post oh my god excuse me.
50 token tickets times ten = 500
10 token tickets times 50 = 500
I think when I did it the first time I did 25 tokens and I sold about 30 only half of the guys showed up to the pw show .

I just started camming, and I've been on CB for the past 6 days, working about 3 hours a day, and have made just under $300 so far... really unpredictable from day to day, though. Since I enjoyed myself I'm pretty darned happy, though of course I'd like to improve, build my fanbase, and make more!
Also we'll see how I do on streamate once I'm approved there... I am guessing that I'll wind up spending more time on streamate. I made most of my chaturbate money on the 3 days when I was really on top of my game, high-energy, entertaining constantly. I don't think I can pull that off on a daily basis- two or three times a week, hell yeah, but not every day I'm working! So I'm looking forward to trying a more privates-based site, so I can actually figure out what works best for me, since only by trial and error will I know for sure :)

Does anyone else get that glitch where your broadcast turns off suddenly and it counts down before it can start back up This happens to me everytime i get on at least once
I wonder if it's my webcam or the site
Some time I even have to refresh because it just will not broadcast .

This always seems to happen to me right when I finally have a good number of people in the room and then of course they all leave when my broadcast goes down. Super frustrating! :banghead:

Hi ladies :) I had a quick question about Chaturbate. I'm not new to camming (I've worked on MFC) but new to Chaturbate. I was considering signing up with my BF to do couples shows. Obviously, to get paid we both have to be age verified, but how does the payment work with two people? Say it was put on my Payoneer card or via direct deposit in my bank account. Of course, I will have to pay taxes on it. Would he? Does he have to claim that income too? Basically, does one person withdraw it, or is it split up in some way by Chaturbate? I'm curious how that works. I think he is more than willing to cam as far as he doesn't mind being found out/seen online but is a little concerned about the "paper trail" on his taxes, but I'm wondering if it would just be on mine, if I'm the one being paid. I'm not sure how it works. Hope that made sense lol. Thank you :)

10-05-2013, 11:54 PM
hopefully punker barbie can answer this the next she combs thru the thread but im pretty sure theres some kind of 'master name' on the account that takes the burden of the taxes. it is possible that they do split the earnings 50/50 for taxes but i doubt it.
honestly i like the site but i think their accounting is sub-par due to the fact its never on a consist day like i get my payoneer loads 3-5 days after the pay period ends - its not like sm where i get my loads every firday between 10-12 in the morning or on the 16 and 1 first like on imlive and mfc

10-06-2013, 09:53 AM
I cam as a couple, but my name is on the deposits. When they w-2 comes it comes in my name, though I file my taxes jointly. I would suggest verifying an account strictly for your boyfriend and then sending him whatever portion of the tokens to cash out in his name.
This way you aren't stuck with the full burden of paying back taxes.
