Is there a site where I can do only Skype shows?
The computer I was using for camming no longer works, so I am using an outdated one that I doubt will be strong enough to stream on the big cam sites. I don't plan on buying another computer until after I pay taxes.
Is there a way/a site I can use to do Skype cam shows without having to find my own clients?

Please start reading at the beginning of this thread and then also take a look at this one on Skyprivate as well https://www.stripperweb.com/forum/sh...Payment-Option

Re: The CamModel Directory Thread
Im interested to hear thoughts on IndieBills purchase of CMD.....as for me, I hope that Gerald works to improve the site and get it back to the way it was pre-shutdown, when it was my main, easiest, most earning site. I havent had a ton of experience with Gerald or Indiebill in general, but I've never really had a problem with them either, so I am just hopeful that this goes in the right direction. Any thoughts or opinions?

Re: The CamModel Directory Thread
I just hope they don't get overwhelmed, it took nearly a month to get my id changed with Indiebill last year.

I trust Indiebill so, I hope things will change a little. Let's be positive!
I wish we got Indiebill percentage aka 85%! hahaha! But if we get more traffic, I am fine with 75- 80% either.

I truly hope they bring in more traffic. Thats my #1 hope. Im cool with their percentage, as it puts SMs measly %35 to shame....now if CMD had SM traffic.....itd be unstoppable. I guess a girl can dream lol.

Somehow, SM is bringing that traffic from somewhere, I guess CMD can do too... The 75% percentage is legit since it requires less maintenance of the site, than a live streaming one. Even tho, that doesn't absolve SM from the greed of taking 65% of the earnings. I think 50% is decent for a live streaming site.

Re: The CamModel Directory Thread
50% would be such a blessing.

Re: The CamModel Directory Thread
You get 75% on Streamate. If you use another model's or affiliate's traffic on SM, then you get 35%. If you bring your own, you get the full amount.

75%? On sm?

Re: The CamModel Directory Thread
I didnt use an affiliate link and ive been on SM for a couple years and i, and from what i hear everyone else, gets %35.....i have no idea where this %75 is coming from lol. Unless you are talking about bringing your own traffic in and having them sign up....which, for the huge percentage they take, THEY should be doing anyway.

Re: The CamModel Directory Thread
That's the real cost of traffic, about 50% of what you make.
What goes on with most indy sites is either you're listed around everyone else, and in that case you're basically re-distributing the traffic that comes to see you to other models (and vice versa), essentially re-shuffling the deck but without any tracking for who gained and who lost. Paying clients don't just materialize out of thin air, they come from somewhere somehow.
The other option is that the clients you bring will remain in a vacuum. You get no cross-traffic gain or loss, and legit get 75%+ of what you bring.
For old school box sites, they carefully track who brought the traffic and make sure they're paid appropriately.

When they are taking that "huge percentage", that is exactly what they have done. They have signed up a client for you. When you take the huge percentage is when you signed up that client for you.

You promote your model link on social media eg. dahliasimone.cammodels.com. If someone signs up under your link you get the higher percentage. There are a lot of models here who do very well with this program. Here is the link to the Streamate FAQ http://streamatevip.com/help/cam-models

Re: The CamModel Directory Thread
I get that. I was just confused by your wording because it sounded like we just get that off the top. I understand the increase when they sign up using your link, I was only saying for those of us who log on and put in the hours but dont bring in our own traffic, %35 is still a paltry amount of money considering the amount that even the mid-low ranked girls bring in.

I honestly, legit, had no idea it was that used that frequently....well, fuck, I need to get in on that then lol. Even a couple of regs signed up at that higher percentage could make a HUGE difference.

I used to think the same as you about the percentage but now that I know more about what goes into marketing a site, the tech behind it and the money it takes to serve the thousands of viewers live streaming video and to promote competitively on the internet, I feel the percentage is logical.
The overhead is steep to run a site like Streamate especially since they try so hard to stream at higher resolutions. Also, with all the competition among the camsites, it's especially hard to capture the attention of horny men who have so much choice. That's why Streamate's whitelabel marketing strategy works. Instead of trying to brand one site, they have webmasters funneling traffic through hundreds of thousands of sites. CB does this to some extent as well. It costs shit tons of money to set up this kind of white label system. Each webmaster gets micropayments for each click...think about the programming behind those calculations.
As well, SM has invested money into CDN's all over the world. We're talking Amazon level stuff to get video streaming quality higher. Although many of us complain about the glitches, considering that they are streaming thousands of feeds 24/7 is kind of mind boggling and comparable to Twitch--owned by Amazon. That ain't cheap!

I never realized it, either. Wow.
I'm glad CMD was bought out purely so we could have this discussion, lol.

Re: The CamModel Directory Thread
I hope it brings more traffic!

Re: The CamModel Directory Thread
I don't know much about Indiebill but seems like a bigger organisation, so CMD will probably get more exposure = more traffic. I will say though, I wish Mark all the best in his new ventures.

Re: The CamModel Directory Thread
Ahhh I don't know how to feel about this. Indiebill definitely seems like a respectable company, which is good, but CMD is already very good for me (I didn't personally see any permanent drop in traffic like some others have described.) I guess I'm just nervous about change when in my opinion it's already doing pretty well.
A small note though... I really wish cam sites would be more discreet about the names they use when they pay us. In our line of work proof of income can be tricky and I know I've had to show bank statements etc to various people. The name CMD was using isn't linked to anything adult until the third page of a Google search (for me at least), while the new one leads directly to Indiebill. I guess it doesn't matter that much for me, as I'm with Boleyn Models and the name they use leads to a website that looks vanilla at a glance (though maybe not if you really pay attention.) I don't see anything that's blatantly adult-related in a Google search, even 8 pages in. But it'd be nice to have the option to go back to non-daily pay without sacrificing my privacy.
EDIT: Just to be clear, I didn't use the specific names that they use so as to not make them even more searchable/worsen the privacy issue.

Re: The CamModel Directory Thread
Girls, can you help me a bit with a good advice? )
First time I will make a clip for sale, for my regular client, and I'm not sure how to rate my video=) My standard price for a prvt show (on skype) is $3 per a minute, but I guess, I need to rate my recorded video for sale higher , what do you think? And If I rate it higher, then how much higher? How do you rate your clips for sale?

Re: The CamModel Directory Thread
Anybody not get their Direct Deposit this morning? I've only ever not got mine on a Monday one time (barring holidays, of course) and it was when the new service girl started and she effed it up. Just curious.

Re: The CamModel Directory Thread
Is CMD down for anyone else?

Re: The CamModel Directory Thread
I was gonna ask, I'm getting a "This site can’t be reached" message. Fuuuuuck I hope it's back up soon, I gotta work!

Re: The CamModel Directory Thread
Yessss, looks like it's back up :)
