POLL: Studios & Traffic on Streamate
So I've been seeing a few girls saying that they can't make money anymore on Streamate because they are ~*not in a studio*~ so they ~*aren't getting any paying traffic*~.
I asked around, just out of curiosity, and I found out that this doesn't appear to be true at all. Many girls (including myself) are not in a studio (or not in a prime studio that promotes at all), and are still doing well on Streamate as far as placement, hourly, and traffic goes.
So I decided to make this poll to put an end to this rumor, and to view the results.
(RE: The Poll... When I say "studio" I do not mean a studio that does not promote. I'm talking about the few studios that everyone knows about, always mentioned in the profiles of various cam girls. Those are the studios that self-promote.)
Re: POLL: Studios & Traffic on Streamate
I am in a non promoting studio and only make 30%... I can promote myself! That's the beauty of twitter, tumblr, ect. It's all about knowing how to target potential customer bases.

That would count as the "I am NOT in a studio and am doing GOOD on Streamate" option because your studio does not promote you anymore than a girl who is not in a studio at all :). I am talking about the studios that are mentioned in girls' profiles.

I KNOW (lol)! I read and answered correctly. I guess I meant to say, "I am in a non promoting studio and only make 30%... and I am doing great making the lower %"
ps-u know i <3 u
Re: POLL: Studios & Traffic on Streamate
Not in a studio and doing well. Some days I do poorly but overall the checks are good. Thank goodness for SW or I wouldn't have known how to sign up for myself! Eff the middlepimp.
Re: POLL: Studios & Traffic on Streamate
I've never been in a studio, and I'm doing approximately half as well as I was one year ago with the same hours, better equipment, etc. My placement is down several rows as well.
Re: POLL: Studios & Traffic on Streamate
*Bump*
So far, out of the 28 replies, there is absolutely NO correlation with being in a studio and doing well on Streamate. In fact, quite the opposite according to the results so far.

You can't really say at all since you didn't ask the entire camming community. The girls you asked are getting decent traffic and are doing well. But I've read here and on twitter about girls not doing well. So its doesn't appear to be true for some (not all).

The argument was... well, a few cam girls were saying that you will ONLY get good traffic and make good $$$ if you are in a studio. I see this plastered all over their twitters and them talking about it in free chat even. But its not true, and I wanted to even debunk it with this poll (the answers are what I suspected them to be).
So I asked a bunch of girls in rows 1, 2, and 3 on Streamate (including myself) who are not in studios or not in studios who promo, and literally all of them said they were doing great without a studio. So if many girls are doing great on Streamate and are not in a studio, then being in a studio has nothing to do with traffic or income. Or at least nothing you couldn't already do on your own without a studio or without a studio that promotes, and that was my experiment.
Sure, some are in studios. But not many. Maybe half, if that. And many girls in those same studios are not doing well or are on like page 3. I know this because they have the studio (that promotes) tagged in their profile or they all use the same tag lines or room topics (physical studios only).
Re: POLL: Studios & Traffic on Streamate
one day ppl will realize the studio deal is a myth. Im so tired of this argument. :)

My bad I mis-read the thread. I remember this debate....it won't die lol. I see non-studio models doing better(or at least I assume they are) then studio models. Just yesterday I was in the room of one of the girls from that show "gold show" and then I went to a non-studio models room and she had probably triple the amount of people in her room then the "gold show" model did. I was actually kind of shocked at the number of people she had in her room...I would've thought she'd have more.
Anyways, I don't think being in a studio gets models more or better traffic or is the only way to do well. If that was the case then every single studio model would be on the first page, in the first couple of rows of their category, with tons of people in their room which isn't the case. I think the girls that are in studios who get alot of traffic and have good placement are girls who would've had the same traffic/placement if they weren't with a studio.

Definitely.
Re: POLL: Studios & Traffic on Streamate
I'm usually in the first row and I am not with a studio and doing fine. I don't usually have tons of potential paying members in my room (15-30) but my earnings do not seem to suffer too much from it.
I do notice that when I have the bump in traffic from TV broadcasts I make my goldshows a lot easier. I am not sure where the traffic is being filtered from, because there are times when I am already in the first spot trying to run a goldshow sitting with 15 people in my room, and I get the request and bam, there are 60 people in there and my placement hasn't changed at all....but that is another quandary all together...lol
Re: POLL: Studios & Traffic on Streamate
I'm not in a studio and doing fantastic. First in almost all my categories and 4th row on the main page. Not bad.
