It's always good to have backups. If it's slow every where, look in one more place. Only thing is that SM placement can be finicky if you don't work enough.

I mean more of actually keeping a regular schedule. Girls who break for weeks at a time will find themselves at a very low placement. When my schedule was erratic I couldn't even tell you my placement. Now that I have a set schedule that I stick to consistently I've noticed a huge difference.
i typically do well, on Sundays. My logic is that guys who are settling down from the weekend are finally home and bored, in front of their computers and ready to stare at porn and impulse-buy, all afternoon, long. I did a 20-minute show, today, that made my entire earnings goal on my primary site and even had 40 minutes of call-time, on a back-to-back show, on NF. I'm really regular about being on, on Sundays, though. The earlier, the better, for me.
If any days are bad, its Fridays and Saturdays. I either have to cam super-early and get the guys who are just killing time in the morning or way late, at night. Afternoons can be dead as hell, for me. Afternoons are bad, in general, I guess.
Its a hit or miss on Sundays. Some are just meh, others are awesome
Double threadjack... was it hard to relocate to Canada?
IME, Sunday mornings/afternoons can be great due to the "just woke up, no work today, and I have a boner" factor, and Sunday NIGHTS tend to suck because Monday morning comes right after and guys are stressing about and preparing for the workweek.
That said, no matter what day it is, there is always the potential for one or two viewers to make your day, and then you're "banking" while other girls are having to pull teeth.

Yeah, I guess I don't understand why we keep starting these threads.
It makes me want to start one called "Almond butter is better than peanut butter" where we can discuss the completely subjective nature of the statement, people can chime in about their various allergies and diets, and someone can start a philosophical discussion on the nature of the word "better."
Not usually one to be dramatic, but the only useful info in this thread is in the off-topic comments and in people reminding us that someone somewhere is always making money on cam.
......Bump......
I honestly don't see anything wrong with these kind of threads. The OP seems genuine, it doesn't seem like she's trolling but some of the comments on here give me the chuckles because you're complaining about people complaining, LOL!
Everybody's situations are different, what might seem like no big deal to some could be a stressing problem for others. Who and why do some of you get to decide what's worthy of another thread or not?
I guess that's the Sagittarius in me, if I don't like someone or something then it doesn't exist. I simply keep it moving!
I agree with Marina, it is very easy to skip threads that you don't want to read. Yes I understand that there are many of these threads around. But that doesn't give people the right to come in and read a thread that they didn't want to read in the first place and then complain that it's there.
With the questions of Sundays, I have recently started working on Sundays and for a couple weeks I did really well, hitting my daily goal in about 2 hours or less. But yesterday was just awful. I didn't make much, I decided to log off and make clips instead! :) I'm sure today will be much better.
I find Sundays to be pretty darned great, usually. Sundays and Mondays are my happy days - but it really varies - you just have to play around and find what works for you. How much time did you spend on each site? If you were site-hopping with less than an hour on each one, that could have something to do with it!
It also depends on how many other girls are on. It can be friday-night-at-the-strip-club conundrum - it is the busiest night, lots of money....so lots of girls work it, because it is known as a "money night", and that ups the girls:customers ratio, meaning LESS money for each girl! Sometimes I find that Sundays have an inordinate amount of girls on, so I am bumped way back in placement, and then do worse....
Also (side note) according to a show on cammodels (I've totally forgotten the nam) the most porn is downloaded and/or paid for on Sundays. So it SHOULD be decent!
Last night was my first night. Granted I was only on for 99 minutes, I still made 570 tokens in tips. It wasnt too bad I guess. :)
pulling my hair.I hate putting in a extra hour to meet my goal.Damn i gotta try another site .I hate just being comfortable on one site.
Girl, I know exactly how you feel. I was getting way too comfortable with and reliant on one site in particular. Right now that site is being a little up and down. Some days I do better than usual. Other days I make literally half of my usual hourly. It sucks just because I never know if I'm going to have to cam for less than 3 hours or 5+, I wish there was more consistency in my shift but at least I know if I put in the extra time I WILL log out with the money I wanted.
Then I added another site last month and OMG, why did I not do this sooner?! I'm working twice as many hours as I used to, but I am making More Than twice as much in a day compared to what I was a month ago. I guess one could say that it sucks having to invest so much time on cam, but by splitting up my time and not having to rely on only one site (my back-up sites make me shit, they don't count lol), when I do have a slower day on one site it doesn't even matter tome because the other site always seems to balance it out and get me to my goal.
And on a little tangent, I also get irritable if I have to work an extra hour to reach my goal, but if you take a step back and think about it, LOL. I feel like the life of a cam girl has really spoiled me because I think of that extra 60 minutes as being *so* damn important now. Before I switched to the adult industry full time and was still working vanilla jobs I can't tell you how many hours of overtime I had to put in without warning, PLUS I'd have to work on projects from home without being compensated. If I had to choose between corporate big shots taking advantage of me or my cam custies taking up an extra hour of my day, I would choose to be with my little perverts every time :)
It's quite backwards to say I don't have the right to come into a thread a complain about it AND claim that I say someone doesn't have the right to do something which is what I shouldn't be doing. /:O
No, I'm totally cool with the all the threads about the same topic. I'm simply pointing out that there is no REAL way to assess whether or not a particular day of the week is awful, unless all camgirls weigh in and say the same thing. The responses to every single thread like this are the same. Some say "yeah it sucks" and others say "no, it's great."
So I guess my point was: what is the point to discussing a topic when there is no answer to the question? Don't get bitchy with me girls. If you've been around, you know I don't do drama. I was making a legitimate point. I've seen much worse replies to threads like this. I REALLY don't appreciate someone telling me, on an open forum that I don't have the RIGHT to do something. I never said the OP didn't have the right to start a thread like this. I was questioning whether there was a point to it & pointing out the completely subjective nature of assessing which days are good and which are not.
I think it was pointed at me Marina, not you.
I wasn't trying to be bitchy Jess. Just meant that if you didn't want to read the thread don't, but I didn't see the point in complaining about the thread :) Sorry if you took it wrong. The OP was just trying to get other peoples opinions on 'their' sundays. :)
We're all set, my lovelies ;D
i wish i could name names so you guys can see what im talking about- but that would be rude but it totally BLOWS MY MIND that certain girls are so popular for close to no reason. espcecially on mfc.
theres a girl who just sits there, never says a word, no showing body, who just sits there and stares at the camera and she would have thousands of viewers and tips. shes is just OK looking, i dont get it. theres actually a few of them that is on top 20 like this.
im fine with they way i do it and i dont mean any harm but but im so puzzled.
You and me both jojo
