One... Out of millions... ;) There is still plenty who will and do :)
Right, u just complained a while ago that one of ur members said he only supports US girls & accused u for not being in US for real?! Still ur display country is US, that's a total different case than a girl having the display country in EE. Believe me is not the same. Models cant pick whatever country they want, that's tough on SM, if u have a certain display country u only get certain people in ur room, some members simply dont want to go & spend money in foreign models rooms; by the way, u a rare happy case, i am glad for u but i speak in general about non western models with non western display countries.

I find out members from western countries dont want to pay high rates to non western cam models, especially from Eastern Europe, they often 'support only US girls' like somebody said in here or just consider life is cheaper here & we dont deserve that much money, life is not cheap here by the way but the $$ have some value. no matter how sexy accents sound in general, a non native english girl wont have the success of a native english speaking girl from western countries, no matter how good she looks or how good her english is. 13 years of cam experience taught me this. Yes, experiment with prices ladies but if u find out higher fees are not working out just go with the price that makes u money. Much love xxx

I am from a non western country and do get away with higher prices at streamate, so it is not impossible - and I am not an native English neither
But on the other hand, if I would make more with another rate I would go for it. Money is money, and the more the better! I wish you all a great new start of the week! Sunday is almos there (I love sundays, bec I always feel like I can start all over if the recent week went bad)

Why cant u work european sites Kortney? They love american BBW girls, you are a novelty for european white guys. Many use english language, of course the french, german, dutch sites are harder, u need to know the language to have success there.


That's what I meant, je parles un petite peu de francais. So I wouldn't be able to work a lot of other sites European sites without knowing the language. I really do hope things change for the better for you, bb.

i'll hop on cam monday, and i'll send you a picture of me.... i mean, i've been told i'm pretty good-looking... i have that pinup look.. always with matte black stockings, garters, heels, corsets... my 2.66 GHZ amd dual core doesn't support the encoder.. and i don't talk on cam, i find it very uncomfortable to talk to them while i still have that russian accent.. but i do stream music with stereo mix quality on cam, my lighting is perfect... wait, hold on.. i'mm send you a PM with my screen name so you can take a look at me and kindfully give me a suggestion regarding the price..

Accents are sexy...
Talking helps show personality & sells shows. :)

Good Luck,
Sam

Today (15th) it only shows you up to the 12th although it claims to do the "past 7/30/90" days. Would be useful to see yesterday rather than 3 days ago...

I was wondering!

Frustrating. I should do my own figures but this is sooo nice! I hope they make it so it at least does the previous day. (Previous few hours would be a dream and extremely motivating). I suck at math :)

this thing is so wrong, idk what to say.

Im not complaining but this is not my hourly with or with out gold shows.

Its bc I keep changing prices, spiking shit way up on the graphs.

One show was 2 mins long, I remember this show bc I was getting him so to speak until he realized I got him. I was being a trap god that day.

2 mins in show, says I average 140? and has the longest blue bar <--- thats sum booty


I WANT TO KNOW.. if it only does seven days .. why does the graph change daily? so its not true for that day? lol im done

Maybe the figures drop off hourly from 3 days ago so you are seeing changes you made then?

They must be still tweaking it. Mine has not changed at all, but I was off for two days so there won't be any new figures to add in for 2 days now. I keep peeking at it and nothing yet except those original stats.

so those of you who kept your own figures - does this tool seem accurate?

My numbers seem a bit higher than they should be.

It doesn't seem accurate for me, although I still do one or two gold shows a day and I don't separate the types of earnings in my spread sheet. But I did, just to see, and it doesn't seem entirely accurate to me. Who knows? My suggestion - take the numbers with a grain of salt. I think there are too many variables changing the charts to really know what's going on. More of a rough picture.

It's showing the past 7 days I make nearly twice as much hourly at $4.99/min when in fact I make much more overall at $5.99/min. And I only had my rate at $4.99 for a couple hours in the last 7 days. If I switch to 90 days it seems MUCH more accurate.

It might have been more useful to break down your hourly daily with all types of income included. I don't see the point in breaking it up. It could show a daily break down of total hourly earnings, and then indicate what your rate was on each day for each type of chat or something. I get that they are trying to show us which private rate is making us more money, but like tempting mentioned I switched my rate back down to $4.99 for just a couple of hours last night and now suddenly my $4.99 hourly earnings doubled. Which, they didn't in reality.

I got something similar the other day. Not sure I trust these numbers. Not a big deal really. I think it was skewed because he left a major tip in private. But honestly the show was only 20 minutes. So having a high rate per hour is misleading when there are other variables at work. Also Im not on enough consistently for it to be accurate. One rate was at 40 hours a week and was lower. Then I had a higher per hourly with a dollar increase but was only on for 16 hours. I'm just gonna keep my prices where they are for now and keep track of my daily goals across the board. Sorry I'm rambling but I think the more consistent you are with your time and pricing the more accurate the chart will be.

^^^I hear you. Yeah, he tipped twice. So I guess if we're in a pvt and a guy tips it goes up even higher no matter what rate we charge. Also, I'm the same way. I'll cam for 20 hours one week on sm, and 2 the next so my hours are very random. I don't think I've spent more than 20 hours on sm for the whole week the entire year I've worked. Thanks for clearing that up.

Yeah, I'm taking it with a grain of salt. My 90 day average seemed accurate-ish, but my 30 day average seemed off. Idk, it's confusing.

Interesting.

If the 90 day average is to be believed, my money is consistently going up more the higher I charge. Maybe I just got deceived thinking I was making more at a lower rate because I was more tired after my shift!

I think I'm going to bite the bullet and get out a spreadsheet and keep my own records to compare. If it's accurate I'm jacking my rate up sky high again so I can make it more than a couple hours without being too tired to continue camming.
