Re: New Camgirl Classified Site
I'm just about ready to test the site in production, but I need volunteers. If you're currently signed up for Domino's Damsels, let me know if you'd like to help out by giving feedback or testing the site for bugs.
Until then.. here are some of the new features:
- No more survey! Sign up is automated, though a model account does need to be verified by an administrator before going live. You'll still need a fan sign or Skype verification session.
- Private Messaging between site members
- Customers can view online models from the homepage. They can PM you to schedule a show, or follow your instructions for booking.
- You aren't required to enter your Skype ID - fewer freeloaders!
- Social Media functionality - People can follow you on Twitter, Pinterest, Tumblr, YouTube, Facebook, and almost every other social network.
- Customers can directly message you on Skype from your profile if you wish. No more annoying and ugly buttons to code!
- Each model can write blog entries that show up on the homepage. The more you write, the more you show up on the front page.
- Each model is featured in the homepage slideshow, ensuring equal exposure time for everyone.
- Customers can email you right from your profile.
- Your Twitter feed may be integrated into your profile.
- Private forums for Domino's Damsels models only & public forums for models and clients to interact.
- Models may now control their own photo galleries and update their photos as needed.
- Personalized contact forms available if you don't want to give out your email, Skype or Yahoo IDs.
- Ability to block members that are annoying or harassing you.
- Ability to block timewasters & beggars by their IP address (this is an admin function and requires you to report them to me).
- Ability to create groups, similar to FetLife or Facebook.
- Ability to send files to another site member via attachment.
- No more ratings. Anyone could rate, which wasn't really fair.
- All blog postings will be tweeted.
Things that aren't changing:
- You'll still need a fan sign or Skype verification session.
- It's still free.
- You'll still have your own page to edit and manage, but you'll have more features to work with.

Re: New Camgirl Classified Site
The site is just about ready for y'all!! If you already have a Domino's Damsels ad, your page is ready unless I don't have your social networking information. You can send me your social networking information via email ([email protected]) or via PM on the new site.
To log in and try the site out before it goes live, use your normal Domino's Damsels login information to log in to the test site.
If you find any bugs, let me know. I hope you like it!

Re: New Camgirl Classified Site
Wow! Huge upgrade Domino! I'm just about to send in my survey and pics. Can't wait to see the new site!

Re: New Camgirl Classified Site
The new site is live, but there are a few errors that happened in the import/export process. These are minor kinks and should be worked out shortly!
-
Re: New Camgirl Classified Site
The following errors occurred when I migrated the new site to the old site:
A few usernames were deleted. If you received an email giving you login info, I had to recreate your username. Simply use the login information you received, change your password, and everything will be normal.
Some photo galleries were deleted. These have been restored. Additionally, you may now upload your own photos any time you like without emailing me.
-------------------
With the new site, it's very important that you are logged in to Domino's Damsels when you're available for Skype shows. This will show your avatar on the homepage, allowing potential customers to contact you for a show. Be sure to set your avatar photo.
Every model has a "Cam Availability" schedule on her main profile. This tells customers when you'll be available for shows. You may enter your schedule any site you cam on (along with a link to your profile on that site) in addition to showing your schedule for indie shows.
Customers can now email you or add you on Skype you directly from your profile. If this is problem, please email me.
If you'd like to sign up for a model account, there is no more sending in a survey. All you need to do is go to www.dominosdamsels.com and click on Register. You will need to send me a private message once you're registered letting me know that you're a model. Then, read the very simple instructions on the Get a Listing page. There will be a 24 hour turnaround time most days. This is a one woman project for the most part, so if I'm really busy with my own work or personal life, please cut me some slack. I'm always very quick to respond to questions.
If you've already got a listing, please check out the Help forum if you have questions about setting up your profile. There are a lot of step-by-step tutorials on how to set up your profile. If your question isn't answered there, feel free to shoot me an email or PM.
Thanks, ladies! I hope you enjoy the new site!

Re: New Camgirl Classified Site
Ohhh!! I forgot to mention - if a guy is reported for being abusive, his IP will be banned and any time the guy tries to view Domino's Damsels, it will 404. This 404 error page is going to be full of.... unsolicited cock pictures!! So, if a guy sends you an unsolicited cock picture, you may upload it to a photo gallery full of penis pictures. Depending on the extent of his douchebaggery, his screen name may be watermarked on his cock picture. What do y'all think?

Re: New Camgirl Classified Site
I'm now accepting new applications for CCBill accounts. You must use your account at least once a month or it will be deactivated.
You will need to submit some paperwork to CCBill that lists your real name and address. This is so they can pay you. I do not see this information - you send it directly to CCBill. You will not be paid out until you send in this paperwork because CCBill will not know where to send your paycheck!
You will need to choose flat rates for your shows because CCBill doesn't bill per minute. Once your account is accepted and your paperwork is sent in, you will be able use the buy button on your Domino's Damsels profile. When a customer clicks "Buy a Show", it will send them to CCBill's secure servers and they can select which show they want to purchase from a drop-down box.
If you want to use the payment processor, you must first sign up for a profile on Domino's Damsels. Follow the instructions on the Get a Listing page to get your profile place. Then, email me your flat rates and times in the format you want them to appear to the customer. If you have any questions, please let me know!

New Rules on Domino's Damsels
I'm going to preface this with a thank you to everyone that has applied to Domino's Damsels. Apologies if I come across as abrasive in any of this.
There seems to be an influx of newer cam models right now, which is great. The trouble is that to really be a successful independent webcam model, you need to learn the basics first. In other words, to be truly successful, you need to work on a big box site like SM or MFC before making the decision to go independent. Here are three reasons:
- You need to make a name for yourself. You need fans/customers before going out on your own, or else making money will be a struggle.
- You need to learn what customers expect and what they ask for.
- You need to learn the ins and outs of the business, like what your limits are, the culture of different webcam communities, what your niche is, and more complex things like self-promotion and building a website.
Being independent is NOT EASY. It requires resourcefulness, intelligence, technical knowledge, and very, very good people skills. Realize that the reason big box camsites take so much of your money (40-65%) is because they are bringing in traffic. Creating awareness is probably the most difficult challenge that independent webcam girls face.
All of this being said, after speaking with the other active models on Domino's Damsels, we've decided to put a few prerequisites in place for new models. There are several hoops to jump through, and it's not an accident. In order to create a positive experience for both models and customers, it's necessary to have standards. Before you're eligible to sign up, you must meet the following requirements:
- You must have a minimum of six months webcamming experience.
- You must have your own blog or website.
- You must utilize social networking services, like Twitter or Tumblr, for your cam persona. Your personal accounts do not count.
- You must be an active member of Stripperweb, WeCamGirls, or ExoticDancerNet.
The purpose of these requirements is to weed out the models that aren't serious about camming. Girls that are never available for shows or never log in to Domino's Damsels create unnecessary competition for the active models on the site. It's also disappointing to customers if they try to contact an inactive model. It makes the rest of us that are available for work look bad.
Additionally, please note the following rules for current models:
- You MUST log in regularly to keep your account active. If you're available for shows, more guys will see you online and be interested in a show with you. If you do not log in at least a couple times per month, your profile will be permanently deleted.
- You MUST use your CCBill account at least once a month to keep it. If you do not use it, it will be permanently shut down.
- You have SEVEN days (one week) to fill out your profile once you've been approved as a model. If you do not fill it out, it will be permanently deleted.
Once you've been deleted, I will not allow you back on the site. I'm not too fond of wasting my time, and I'm sure you're not fond of people wasting yours, either.

Re: New Rules on Domino's Damsels
Also, I made an awesome update. You can now post photos, videos, and links to your camsite under the "What's New" page. Your activity shows up at the bottom of the homepage, and it alerts guys that are lurking the site that you're active.

Re: New Camgirl Classified Site
How strict are you about the 6 mo min in the field thing? Im fairly new not 6 months but Im pretty sure I can handle being indie.
-
Re: New Camgirl Classified Site
It's not about whether or not you can handle it, it's more about being well-established and serious about your camming career. A lot of girls start camming only to quite days or weeks later. At six months, you should have a strong hold on your camming career.

Re: New Camgirl Classified Site
You can now add your Amazon Wishlist to your social media bar! Just shoot me a message, email, or IM with your stage name and Amazon wishlist URL. I will also be adding a Yahoo! IM icon.
Edit: I also added an icon for y'all that use Streamate. Feel free to send me the URL to your profile. Hopefully, I will be adding NiteFlirt, too.
-
Re: New Camgirl Classified Site
Domino if you have a streamate account of your own laying around, you should think of adding your affiliate link to the girls Streamate links... It might not add up to much but a little kick back here and there might help with site costs :p
Same thing with the amazon wishlist.

Re: New Camgirl Classified Site
What an interesting site. I will join the forum, too. Thanks for this. :)

I'm going to do that tonight, actually. I may as well give SM a whirl and see if it's any fun.
