LOVE IT!!!!
Yes we DO need to show these low pay out sites that we don't need them!
Niina, I am so in love with you right now *HUGS!*
love it!
Ahaha, yessssss.
this will be the first post I'll look at when I'm feeling lazy as hell. if I'm still resistant to working after this one, we'll have to bring out the big guns with why the rent is not paid.
Lets increase our income & stick it to the network ladies! ;)
Lady, great post...So....Well, lets kiss and make up....for a day anyway....
I couldn't agree more with most of your post. I think that it's high time with the internet around, that we take back this industry and ALLOW men to work in OUR industry, but even more, that we make the pay work in our favor.
Stream pays what Stream pays, because Stream CAN and girls still come and work.
So the indy site is the step that will force the ppm commercial camsites to re-adjust their model and force them to find one more fair to the women.
I can't wait, and as you know...ANY part I can play in that happening is something I'll be extremely proud of.
One thing I think you're right on about, in practice, I think you need to clarify in THEORY.
The Indy sites out there right now make you need to do almost all of your own promoting. This is because they are SLACKERS. If any of you want to disagree, SHOW me where they have their links up to all the TGPs and CAM listing sites, and Link Trade Sites, and How they are buying traffic enough to actually show up on Alexa, etc. I am appalled at the absolutely minimal traffic propagation from a site that (you know my philosophy here if you read my thread about indy sites) takes a fairly large percentage of your money (to me, if it's over 10%...it's WAY too much...and even 10% is unfair..because the costs of the site don't go up by even CLOSE to the percentages they charge)...Anyway, that's for another thread...but the point for this one is that we should not only expect truly high quality listing platforms, but we should expect them to compete with traffic for our business.
Is Nina right that every camgirl should have her hustle under major full-court whole-nine-yards control? ABSOLUTELY!
But the sites should be jammin' on the traffic as well.

I love doing independent caming more than being on camsites. It's true it does require to do lot of self promoting. I like the setup for Niteflirt those wanting to contact the webcam model they have to pay to get access for the ID. I think all Indy listing sites should do the same to help limit the annoying timewasters that have no intention buying a show just only want to harass which leads them to be put on ban.
So where's the next part? :D
Hmmm indy could really be the way to go for me these days, hmmm.
PPG, Awesome Awesome post! Bravo babes ;) Well done.
About the % they take... aren't most of the costs in running websites coming from bandwidth? Since they have us using messengers for our cam feeds, I'm not really understanding why they take such a high percentage either. Like, what are they really DOING for us? It's definitely not traffic related either... If I have to go out and promote for myself there's no way I want to even use most of those sites as payment processors. They simply don't deserve the cut if I found the guy through my own efforts. Which is the payment processor that takes the absolute least percentage out there? Is it alertpay?
Next up : "What did you just SAY?!"
stay tuned.....
You are my hero right now.
Are y'all setting up your affiliate programs through zombaio?
Yes when I had a members area, I used Zombaio for my affiliates... if thats what you meant.
Also if you have 1 chargeback within 4 weeks with 100 sales you will encur an additional 2% fee on everything.
How can I learn more about affiliate programs? I would like to do some affiliate work on the sites where I don't cam often. Imlive, webcams..
Being a niteflirt girl, I have learned how to market myself a little, but not nearly as much as I would like. I am still learning, and any info would be helpful.
Camwhore, would you mind telling how you got your website, and how much it cost? It's well put together, and I love the colors as well.
im not sure if your refering to my old membership site... if you where it was professionally made by
the one that is currently under my signature domain was made with wordpress. I use a program called Artisteer for the HTML pages around the blog.
Artisteer allows you to make custom designed blogs. Even a begginer can be a designer for a day with that program.
Hope that helped!
* I have several little (ADVERTISMENT) sites ... but in general they are wordpress. The membership site is Joomla.
click me! ;)
Definitely! I appreciate the info. Helped a lot!
Oh! I forgot all about that site. Im going to read it again right now. I'm stuck at home dieing right now and Im pretty sure Im about to be fired for it (cause I'm always missing "day job" shifts cause Im in the hospital all the time) so Im going to use this time today to look up indy camming stuff. Cause hey. If Im fired I will have more time at home to be camming my ass off! :D
I wanted to know how many of y'all post ads on craigslist and backpage and how does that work for camming? :)
Today is my MEGA MARKETING day, so I'm going full blow on some of this! :)
