Yeah it is so difficult when your on a cam site that is a totally different time zone to yours. I had the same issue on MFC as im in the UK I was having to sit up till 3am to get the right kind of paying clients.

I'm from the USA can I use AW?
Webcam girls at your service
Grab your popcorn and take a seat and watch the hundreds of girls join this forum and AW. Going by the Twitter reactions 80% of the girls seem to want to jump on the band waggon because we apparently earn a 6 figure sum a week.
They better do something about the traffic!AW I mean.There is not enough traffic for all of us and those who will join next.I did free chat and traffic in my room dropped really bad for past 2 months .Especially paying members...they are missing!Earnings are missing too,compared with last year for example.I`m in a point where I dont need aw anymore and aw does not need me.
The passport thing must be new? I don't have one, and I've been a U.S. model on AdultWork for a while now (though they have me listed as U.K., for some reason, and will not allow me to change it to U.S. on my profile). I have a photo ID and social security card though.
Is not that new ,I can tell for europeans they are asking for passport for more than a year now but few years ago when I registered they did not asked.I only have a photo id uploaded there.
I don't think AW is any more of a struggle than any other cam site. I started on AW 4 years ago, ditched it and went to MFC where some days were shockingly bad and some days were amazing. Now I've been back on AW for the last 4 months I don't see too much of a difference than what it was like at MFC.
Can't say anything about other cam sites but streamate seems to be looking pretty good at the moment. I think it's wise to have at least 2 cam sites on the go and switch to wherever the money is.
I could always make more money but Im not struggling on Aw. New girls do not bother me at all. It takes a special kind of person to do what we do and an even specialier kind of person to make a living off of it. Their not all special, I am as fazed by them as veterans are with me, lol, not much at all.
^^ with regards to something like this, I think that the pool will slim down eventually...I'm not on AW yet but I'm under no illusion that it will be super hard before I see any returns and I think that only camgirls who are somewhat experiences will actually last on sites like this. Girls who are lured in by the sites advertising (some sites state you can make up to $10000 a week) are usually the ones that quit shortly after they realise that this is not the case.
The ones who go in knowing how much time and effort it really takes are the ones who will stick around. Personally I never stress too much about an influx of newbies to any site I cam on, as 90% of them tend to fall out quickly, so hopefully with AW it'll be the same thing.
AW seems to be a different animal from other sites when it comes to newbies unfortunately.
Advertising the webcam programme in the middle of Big Brother is hitting a huge audience of potential webcam girls. Not only that, the guys who might have been watching, would have been watching the world cup final instead!
Does it really take that long to get your first salary on AW?
I made a request for my salary last July 5 or 6.. i used PAXUM as paying method... it's my first time using paxum too.
Then when i looked in transfer history it says
REQUESTED:06/07/2014 14:11:45
Will be Processed On: 22/07/2014
Does it really take that long? and then i will have to wait for the card to arrived too...
I have never been annoyed with new girls joining or feel threatened by them, as if they are genuine and bring allot to the table and work hard then they deserve it and most just think it's a quick buck, realise it isn't then leave.
However the programme being shown in the middle of big brother with I assume most female viewers of a youngish age, well it's asking for it. This does annoy me because these girls come along in a big swarm for 2-4 weeks and us long term girls suffer financially because of it, only for majority of them to sod off a month later.
Webcamgirls hash tag was trending on twitter at the time the show was on and I was watching all the comments as they rolled in and so so so many girls we're considering joining.
Actually watching girls on twitter talk amongst there friends saying "Go on do it, it's such easy money" "OMG I can earn over £1000 a week just for pouring beans on myself for 5 minutes"
I feel like all my hard work, all the hours I do just gets put down to nothing.
That's because of the bi-monthly pay period right? Or does it just take longer in general? I'm with Payoneer and really don't want to switch payment methods if I can help it
I guess at least we're about to enter the summer school holiday period...they may realise sooner rather than later that £1,000 a week is not the norm and that covering yourself with baked beans for a movie clip is unlikely to pull in the same amount. Also, that they're not going to earn £180 an hour shaving their legs.
I love AW. It's the best site for me. I just wish that there was one like it that wasn't just centered around UK customers. I love the percentage, I love the no free chat, I love that u can have phones, sell your knickers, sell videos and photos. recieve emails from guys, get tips, set your own rates, the list goes on. the only thing i dont like about AW. is that you cant sell photos per album. like if u wanna sell photos u have to put one price for the whole lot. what if you have 1000 photos, whos going to fork out the full worth in one go?
Imagine that lol New girl goes at gets 4 tins of beans, goes on cam and pours them over herself, gets £1 a minute for 3 minutes and is like "Where's my grand?" lol
The lack of effort that went into some of them girls shows was a disgrace actually.
And in all these years I've dealt with a million and one weird fetishes but never pouring beans on myself....more like them pouring beans on themself lol
I was about to ask actually, is the spring/summer period as lean as it is in the US? All my US sites are a nightmare in the summer, wondering if AW is the same?
It depends.First of all keep in mind that the traffic is not the same like it is on the other sites and in my opinion regulars are the most important on aw.If you have a lot of regulars it does not really matter what time of the year it is,they will come.For me january-february were always bad,but during winter hollidays and summer I did great.Though I don`t know what to expect this summer.
