Independent cam girl rates
I charge 3$ a minute and dont get much shows at that rate (independently)
However on pay per minutes, i charge 4 and up (except for niteflirt) and get shows out the ass.
whats the problem?
Why dont people want to pay me $3 a minute? I thought that was the standard rate, and thats what i WANT TO MAKE.
i have never booked a show from an independent listing. everyday they waste my time. when i show them the rates they never return.
im not gonna lie, Im starting to feel burnt out. i cant take these free sites much longer...im not getting paid enough....
HELP.
(MY PERSONAL SITE IS BEING PROFFESIONAL DESIGNED AT THE MOMENT SO I REALLY HOPE THAT HELPS A LITTLE)
PLEASE HELP ME....ITS SEEMS THE CHEAP GIRLS ARE MAKING IT HARD ON ME.

I need to add that i feel degraded with pay per mintue shows. Especailly when they are 3-5min at a time....my god.
Re: Independent cam girl rates
Honey I'm so sorry to hear that. I've been doing indy shows with cambabes on and off for two years and I've never charged less than $3.00 a minute. Yesterday I made $200 doing soley indy shows the day before I managed to make over $300. Today I've done two shows already at $60. $3.00 is not a lot at all. You should not negotiate your rate for anyone. $3.O0 a minute is my regular show rate. My fetish shows START at $3.50-$5.00 a minute depending on what they want. For example: Sensual financial dominataion $5.00 a minute. Just hang in there and promote your ass off.. remember you can't really rely on these site's traffic!

Damn - sorry you're feeling low. How about trying adultwork as an imbetween option? You can use the directcam option but set it to private only (no free) and also accept webcam bookings. I have found that the people that saw me on directcam first then make regular bookings week after week through yahoo etc.
adultwork pays 65% on the 'directcam' (which is like normal site cam software)
and 70% for bookings

That sucks babe. I charge $3 a min on indy sites and I get shows. I don't make crazy money from my indy sites but I do ok. If you want to charge $3 then don't change that. It is not an unreasonable price. Hang in there and promote your ass off on twitter, forums, etc. :)
Re: Independent cam girl rates
ironically, after writing this, I got a few shows (probably would have got more if i didnt take a long ass nap... o.O) But i think i found the error in my ways.
If somebody told me thier show was $3 a minute, that sounds INSANE. but if you say, 10 minutes is $30 it really doesnt sound that bad AT ALL. So i guess my wording was a bit wrong.
Also, I was quick to say NO PAY PAL, instead of just sending my zombaio link and ignoring the paypal reference.
I also was a little more AGGRESSIVE on the sale. I think my problem used to be my CONVERSATIONAL tone? Maybe a bit to friendly in my opinion.
*side note, I am on AdultWork as well. the only issue is, when i have my booking limit at 10 minutes I get no shows, but when it says 5 minutes, They book. but to me 5 minutes is a waste of my time. Well, not a waste, but a degrading feeling like I said. I think of my self more as an entertainer vs, a payper minute freak...
I appreciate you guys support so much...sometimes thats just what you need!!!
Hugs and kisses 2 you all & happy camming!

It definitely does make a HUGE difference how you say things! Glad you were able to get some shows. :)
About Adultwork, I hate their booking system but love their directcam thing with justcamit. Maybe give that a try too? I believe you can do that as well as the booking system, but when I found out how easy directcam was I disabled the webcam booking. I get those short shows too but when you get several in an hour they do add up. (and I spend less time messing around with the booking system and connecting through messengers than I do just logging into directcam and making $).
Re: Independent cam girl rates
yeah the booking on AW is so weird. i rather just do directcam with no free chat.. =)
