I've only been on CMD since December of last year but I don't get near as much shows as I was getting. Did Mark use to buy traffic but has quit buying the traffic now? I've also put the cmd tag in my tweets but he does not always retweet me, which makes no sense at all. Because the more we make, the more he gets? Weird that he wouldn't retweet us!!!

He never bought traffic as far as i know? A lot of girls used it and tweeted when they were online and i think most guys came via the models. The featuring spots and page placement were a lot fairer (and cheaper!) before, so more girls got a chance of being seen. Like Ava I used to make about $100 per day there give or take, then after the update nada. Up to 30 random new dudes adding me on skype per day but NO shows. I haven't logged in in months.

I actually feel like the site's been significantly better this year than last year. As long as I stay logged in consistently I get multiple shows per day. I took a lot of time off this month and my earnings and placement have dipped a bit, but it's still a good side hustle. And I'm sure it will go right back up as soon as my schedule stabilizes again.

It also seems like top earners are making MORE than ever before. I was able to hit the monthly top 5 back in 2014 multiple times just making $1600/month. Now I've had several $1000 *weeks* and didn't even hit the top 5! So the site definitely isn't dying and there's still good money to be made.

Just wanted to throw out some positive info for any newbies who are looking into this site.

Is it me or is CMD turning into Cam White Model Directory? I get that it's all about how much you bring in but it would be nice if Mark would scramble things up so ladies of other ethnic backgrounds can get exposure besides the sidebar categories. Even on SM you see several other ethnicities get some shine.

Also, too many people admitting that this site went down into the shitter for those of us who've been there since the site was up. Things are different, traffic is being put towards the new girls on the site as everyone isn't even getting enough exposure like before.

Mark has been good to me personally so I'll always keep it in the basket, but it's just not like it was before. And yes, he does pay for traffic, I know this personally because he told me.

I just realized on here that a model has the same exact name as me on there. So bizarre... This chicka doesn't have a twitter or anything where she really uses it more. I have had 2 cam personas in 3 years now. Maybe i need to chill...

I do notice that majority of the girls are white. I see other races here and there while scrolling but I do notice a lot of new models I've never seen before. I don't fully commit to CMD since most guys are just timewasters and I've got other eggs going on. How are others doing lately on CMD?

That's really good to know. Perhaps it's worth another shot. I'd love to know your rates on there out if interest. I never charge less than 4.50 per min for indie and rarely get a bite lol.

Thats interesting Kortney I never noticed how "white" this site seems to be but ur definitely right , in fact I have to scroll down prettttttty far to find myself on there and feel like I never see any black women, latinas maybe...(im white)

As for traffic I personally love cmd but ive only been working it for a couple months. Its the only site ive made significant income on besides SM honestly. I add guys before they pay for shows tho, it doesnt bother me to have randos i never talked to in my contacts. I have 5 or 6 ads up and charge $3-5/min depending on what kind of show it is.

But yes the customers there r freaky fellas, lol I get so many ageplay shows and stuff like that which im fine with. But one guy asked me to watch him suffocate himself with a plastic bag...I was like o.0.....

I had a new custie contact me via Twitter about doing a Skype show. I gave him my link for CMD.
When it came time to purchase the show, he told me that CMD rejected his debit card. He was confused saying the card worked everywhere else. :-\
I could have directed him to a couple of other places (sites) to pay, but I didn't because it had already taken over 2 weeks of back and forth messages to nail down the time with him.
Has this happened to anyone else?
Thank in advance.

KatyBoleyn
06-14-2016, 09:17 AM
We had a client say that exact thing to one of our models recently, and after him repeatedly saying CMD rejected his card she did the show via SkyPrivate as a pre-pay show. This was 3 weeks ago. Yesterday that show was charged back and left her ~$80 in the hole. Mark's cascade processing system rarely rejects 100% legit clients, which is why we were suspicious originally and held her payment for 2 days until SP gave us the go-ahead.

Keep in mind that Mark fights chargebacks hard when they happen and rarely does it get stuck to the model. This means he has a vested interest in multiple layers of security and blacklist checks when the client does the payment originally. With SkyPrivate prepay shows, they readily refund and let the chargeback through and pass it along to the model immediately - its not a huge issue for them (though it does hurt their processor relations and garner them big fees as well), so a few more things will get through.

Bottom line, if CMD won't process the payment, be very very careful and expect to lose that money if you go elsewhere.

Thank you Katy. That's what I thought. I've yet to have anyone rejected..well, anywhere, and certainly not CMD.
It sounded fishy when he said he'd buy the block of time I requested, then cut out early so I could have all the money, yet do a shortened show. I asked him why? He said because he thinks I'm too pretty. Lol! Yeah, right. Too funny buddy.::)

This site is a great site but you have to promote the hell out of it. If you are willing to put the time into it, it does pay off. You can also buy one of the ten top spots on the site to get more traffic and shows.

For those of you who have Bid for top spots on the site, did it pay off to be on the top row, did you get a lot of skype requests that day or did things remain the same?

i was going to bid on a spot until they became to high,a few months ago you could get a spot for $20-$30. I did good on here as a newbie and got a lot of shows but now that I have been on it a while it is dying down. I do have a few good regs who still make it worth my time tho. I will say from experience when I was on the top couple rows I was bringing in about $400 a week on there so my guess is they are prob making that or more with the bid spots

It tends to level out over time. I keep anyone who has added me on my skype list until they give me a reason to remove them. Some guys want a show RIGHT NOW and if you're not available they'll find someone else. They probably add tons of girls. You keep them around, one day you'll probably catch them in a horny (and paying) mood, otherwise you might as well not exist. CMD is really good for well-paying regs, imo. I've gotten more serious clients on there than anywhere else.

Also, if you just joined, you might be inundated with requests. Happened to me, I had to put dudes on priority sequence. Like 10-20 dudes/day. Maybe 10% of them paid. Then after a few months it slowed to a trickle and I maybe get 2-5 requests from CMD clients a week. About half of them pay, though, so it's a lot more reliable traffic. The first few months were really crucial for me for building clientele- I pretty much did nothing but CMD for months. Now it's nice and steady with very little aggravation. I have my good regs and occasionally am surprised with new ones. I had this dude on my skype for a YEAR and recently he's become a very good ($$) sub. We never talked except briefly at the beginning. He just remembered me as being pleasant to talk to.

Basically, as annoying as CMD can be to start, it's worth it to spend a bit of time investing in the site. Make good ads, take good photos, be as charitable as you feel is worth it with your time. There are quite a few whales on there, so try and upsell yourself.

I haven't gotten a single hit on this site in months. I use to at least get guys contacting me on skype even if they didn't pan out as customers. Now I don't even get that. I've got a bid in for a top spot but I have a feeling I'll be out bid.

Has anyone else noticed a decline in the number of hits they are getting?

Just a question for you ladies- how do you handle rollover time? A strict 'none of it' policy or do you try to be flexible?

I haven't had this issue on CMD yet but which other sites when they prepay for a certain length, I cut the feed when time is up if it was like a 10 minute show, literally end the call or unplug the webcam, don't care what I'm doing, or how close the guy is to cumming. And leave a message saying thanks for the great show! Your time is up, your welcome to go buy more time if you want to finish with me today. Now if they paid for like a 30 minute show, then I may let it go over by like 5 mins ish but letting them know their time is up so finish fast or I have to go because I was paid alot more money for it. Depends on my mood...

I got approved yesterday so can't be helpful on that. I got 5 contact requests and left skype and CMD open most of the day though... I feel like with a "NEW" model tag, I should have gotten more adds than that atleast but I dunno, I started high at $3.99 min unless they buy a 20 min show, I noticed most are priced at 2-3min.

I'm raising my skype prices across the board so I figured it was best to start high on a new site too. That and I get alot of taboo requests, etc. which I saw CMD allows as long as its clear its a roleplay. I might create a listing for vanilla shows thats like $2.50 a minute. Everything else though is going to be $4min unless they are buying 20 min blocks or more though. Alot goes into fetish shows, I have an extra kid now and I'm getting older, I don't have it in me to do crazy shows anymore that aren't even enough to fill up my gas tank.

08-12-2016, 05:02 PM
The first couple of months I did ok on there. But lately it's tumble weeds for me. Not even any guys adding me to Skype. And what really sucks is that I've had guys who got multiple shows from me become time wasters. I had one guy ask me today what is going on w CMD because he said there's never as many models logged in anymore. I haven't been on there very long and I never check to see how many girls are logged on so I don't know if that's accurate or not.

35 aint shit if that brings in bigger money. Ill pay to play :)

I haven't been on CMD for over a year and not getting hit right now

Hopefully it will draw in new and let old know Im back for cam

(I think he had to refresh my profile bc my listings were not showing up.)

as long as I was logged on and taking shows I did good there

I am not mad or anything about it.....I just figured I'd let other girls know that it happened in case they decided to take a long break from the site.

I made sure it was showing me online, did not close the window at all, refreshed like an hour later and it was showing me offline even though I hadn't logged out or messed with it...this has happened more than once @[email protected] Maybe thats why no one has wanted a show last two days lol.

I wasnt first place either, that was a crazy bid week but Mark said its usually around $30. It might be higher in the summer due to other sites being slow so performers are doing more indy.

I feel like it make sense to pay for advertising (as you're not paying with your time by sitting around in free chat). How successful any particular channel of advertising is, though, is a trial and error thing.

I haven't bid on CMD yet, but that's mostly because my ad budget mostly goes on AW bidding.

SylvySinclair
08-17-2016, 09:25 AM
yeah, same with me danceswithsloths, since i know my clientele on aw, i know its worth it to bid as i will get guys paying, but on cmd im not sure i will get guys willing to get shows with me dressed. so im questioning if i should bid as it is a high bid and not like on aw that we small bids we can get good spots. thinking.....ty

Has anyone ever had a show with biigman4327? The person contacted me and said they were another performer on the site. Than said they wanted to do a threeway show with me and another performer. Than they proceeded to tell me I was hot and that they wanted to meet me in person when they were in Arizona next month. That does not sound like another performer at all and they wouldnt give their performer name.

i almost bid this week and then i didnt because my traffic was incredibly good. jane said she bid 50 and made 600usd, but the real question is what is the % of shows u got after having a featured place on the site. i didnt bid at all and made almost same thing she did, so i decided to not bid at all. my % of clients pmming x shows sold was of 60%, the 40% didnt read my profile to know i am a non nude cam girl, so i suppose if i was, i could have sold another 15%. the bidding finished at the lowest price of 34usd, not bad at all, but i will bid in a week that i wont make so good.

That was the only time I've bid too. I think it depends on how much you are on there. If you are on there regularly and promote yourself, you probably dont need to bid. I hadnt been on there for months when I bid, I did it just to be seen on there again. Now I get enough people so I dont have to bid thankfully. Ive looked at bidding recently and the lowest bid was $60. Yikes

SylvySinclair
08-22-2016, 07:44 AM
yeah, what i meant was that how many more guys u get when u bid, i guess this is the main issue as money can come from many clients x bigger shows, which was my case. so if it brings u more clients and u make more shows, even if smaller ones, might be good to bid once in a while.

I think the rates for bidding will go down as soon as summer ends. I saw some crazy high bids this summer. Bidding is good around holidays when everyone is on looking for extra holiday funds.

DO you have to show your face in skype shows on cmd? I don't really show my face in free chat sites and I do fine but am wondering if skype shows would be different?

KatyBoleyn
08-23-2016, 12:57 AM
Generally guys get Skype shows because they expect it to be like a 1 on 1 Skype call. If you don't show your face, you need to clearly state that in your ad (and again when setting up the show, horny dudes don't read), or you will probably give a lot of refunds. Skype shows generally are different because the guy pays for the entire show up front. On a cam site, if a guy doesn't like it, he can click off - and only the really petty ones try to get their $5 back. With Skype shows, if they don't get what they want they'll refund the entire show. Mark is generally very good at defending against the idiots, but its a hard sell if the guy is like "She didn't even show her face, how do I know it was her?"

Katy has a good point. If you dont show your face they can say it might not have been you. I know on a few sites you have to show your face or you cant cam on there. Have you considered wearing a mask or a wig?

Heads up! There is a fake Mark site admin making the rounds on Skype, accusing models of accepting payments offsite. The real Mark has his face pic on Skype, as everyone who is on there and did the verified call knows. The fake Mark comes in from Italy, has a blurry pic that is cropped from the CMD logo (of course this is subject to change I imagine) and it is obvious that English is his second language. His Skype profile name is 'webcamgirls." Of course I skyped Mark while also on skype with the fake guy, and Real Mark said that Fake Mark is making the rounds to us, and to please block and report him.
