Questions about indie camming..
Hi,
Sorry I've searched and have tried to figure this all out, but I'm a little confused about some things.
So I signed up on a few sites like camgirlspot and camgirlssite. I understand that this is where our profiles are listed right? I've downloaded and added my messengers username to my profiles and have even got a few IMs.
So what i'm confused about is how do they pay you for a show? I made a ecampay account, i'm assuming that we send the our username or account number and they can pay with credit card?
Also, i think i read somewhere on camgirlspot that you need a ccbill account through them. where do i get their application. and do i even need the ccbill through them if i just have an ecampay account? Can't i always just tell the guys to pay me through ecampay?
Are we able to see their payment right away on these payment processors sites so we know that their payment went through and to begin the show? ahh sorry, i know so many questions.. i just think im ready to go independent now but am kinda confused. thanks in advance

Regardless of what payment processor you use you will able to see when the customer has paid before you start your show. Do not use ecampay until your control panel says your payouts are approved. Great alternatives are: Ccbill, Moneybookers and Alertpay (If they allow adult transactions i think they stopped but they were like a paypal for the adult. I just woke up and I can't think of anymore right now.. LOL!
Everything else is pretty simple: The guy ims you ask you if you're available .. then you tell him "It's $30 for 10 minutes" or whatever your price is then he pays.. THEN you start your show.. you should tell him after he pays "Give me a second while I check payment".. I've never had anyone had a problem with this. You'll do just fine :).
Malaya
P.s and yes with your ecampay account they can pay with their credit card it's just like ccbill but better.

CamGirlSpot now requires you to sign up with CCBill or they will delete your profile from their site. AlertPay is accepting adult transactions. I signed up with them. :) Sites like CamGirlsSites are just listing sites and you have customers pay however you want them to. Sites like xxxcambabes have the customers pay through them and then xxxcambabes pays you. :)

Correct
Really? You know what I had an alertpay account for a long time and that's what I would use for my shows (the signup is kinda long and not all custies are willing to use it) I would receive money with it regularly then someone told me they weren't acception adult trasactions anymore.. I was like wtf!! Now that I know they are I'll have to go find my account.

Re: Questions about indie camming..
ooooh okay thank you ladies soooo much. helped clear upp a lot. so i DO need to get a ccbill for camgirlspot. i cant even log into that account. it keeps telling me wrong login/password. i do the whole reset password thing, and it just keeps sending me the same password that i keep typing in and getting rejected. tried emailing support but am just getting the automated message.
wait so then does that mean, if a guy messages me from camgirlspot, he has to pay with ccbill, and cant use ecampay? and how can i sign up with ccbill through camgirlspot if i cant even log in. sigh... this is difficult.

Ok email support and save their yahoo messenger contact to your messengers and anywhere else you can. You will get wankers pretending to be support (They're not and just want to get a free show) BE CAREFUL! On camgirlspot's main page, the contact info of the real owners are there. Make sure you save all the RIGHT contacts for every site you're on.. Just FYI..
Camgirlspot admin will tell you all about getting setup and all..

about how many sites are u listed on? and about how many shows do you do on average a day? and i made the blog thing that all you guys did... spruced it up pretty nice so far i think...how can i make this blog help me turn a profit. i mean, i listed the blog on the sites where my cam listing is... but i should promote it more? maybe a twitter or something..gahh.. it just seems like theres a million cams out there, how is someone going to specifically find me haha... hmmm

How many sites am I listed on? I really don't know .. I'm on so many sites it's funny.. I just sign up and move on (camgirlssites and camwhores.com being one of them.)
How much do I average a day? I don't do the big site thing much anymore I log in every now and then to webcams.com and MFC. As far as indy camming I'm averaging $150-$300 a day working part time doing a few shows here and there. Realistically you should be doing 4 or more shows a day. Say your price per minute is $3.00 a minute and you do (4) 10 minute shows a day.. (You should be selling shows in blocks of time .. like 10,15,20 minute shows) That's $120 ..The more sites you list on the more shows you get, The more you're online the more shows you'll get. You can also mix the indy thing with the big sites and profit big that way..
The less you price your shows at the more shows you'll get also.. So instead of $3.00 a minute you should do $2.80 a minute and phone and cam for $3.00 a minute ;) Just an idea ya know.. ?
I've explained this sooo many times this is the world wide web there are billions of people that will be interested in watching your show. Business is never slow.. You are your own competition.. look hot and promote your blog/shows or whatever and I bet someone will notice ya ;). I have a facebook and a twitter.. I'm not going to lie though I cannot stand twitter for some reason.. I've gotten soo many shows off of my facebook account alone.
Check out .. everyone says "she has big boobs and fake hair of course she'll make mone".. bull.. google her she's ALL over google! The girl makes a killing.

Re: Questions about indie camming..
I have a question about indie cam sites, too.. Do the contracts give you full ownership over your images and videos posted to the sites, or do you waive all copyright/ownership to the host site?
