Re: Worth it for part time extra income?
Selling voice clips, writing erotica, PSO, selling intimate clothing, second life, facebook girlfriend on fiver, and selling/making videos are all the things I can think of that can be done without anyone knowing who you are. You can go onto PSO platforms such as NF and you do not need a schedule. That goes for everything else I mentioned too.
Re: Worth it for part time extra income?
Hi girls,
Thanks so much for all the input again. Well, I decided to do it. Talked it over with the boyfriend and he's okay with it. Went and bought a webcam today, probably a crappy one but oh well. Going to be scouring this forum all night, hopefully do my first show this weekend!
Think I'm best off signing up for a few different sites to start out?
xoxo
Re: Worth it for part time extra income?
One more question - after I talked with my man about doing this, he said it would be fun to do couples shows sometimes haha. Ask & you shall receive I guess!
I've read that couples shows don't really bring in much interest or cash and that solo girl shows are where its at. What do you guys think? If I were to do maybe one couples show every couple of months. I guess it would probably depend on what my clientele want, but thought I'd ask :)

Phone sex is a great option for people who don't want exposure. I love doing phone sex but you have to find the right company that works for you.
With camming, it totally depends on how comfortable you are with the possibility of videos out there of you. Even when I cammed a lot I was worried. After I got into my vanilla job I spent a year combing sites for vids or pics or clips or even pop ups. I never found a thing. I worked for the government. I'm leaving that job now. And I can tell you that nobody ever even found out or if they did, it didn't matter in my employment. Now, if you need a background investigation for a security level they will see all the places you have worked, will it matter? Not likely. If you wanted to work for the FBI they would know, but they wouldn't give a hoot. They'd likely not want you to actively be doing it, but they won't hold it against you. That's how un important cam work is to MOST employers if they even find out.
I can tell you now, at 30 some years old, camming only matters to people who are judgemental jerks OR bosses/certain jobs. Think about your future career. If you must hold a position where you come into contact with a lot of people/children like nurse, or even local political offices then yes, it might matter. If you live in a small town and want to be a secretary out at a local Judges office or Sheriffs office, etc, it might matter. In a big city, not so much. MOST people won't see you. But some people do go to porn sites and will see you, and that might be a friend or relative. I think MOST wouldn't talk about it, because they might not want others to know they are viewing porn, but younger men, or men who don't have much to lose, they might talk. You might be the subject at the water cooler at work and never know anybody knows.
If you do it, make sure you put on your best face, look as pretty as you can be, and just be like well, hey, it's my business. Do you pay my bills? No. Then your opinion of what I do to make it in this world is nothing to me. But not all of us are that way. I'm also a hermit and have some mental problems that make me a bit neurotic, so to me I'm like, IDGAF if you like me or think I'm a ho. I have to live and nobody is paying my bills except for me. Most that I know who know about it don't care at all. Most people have better things to do than to worry about somebody's cam job.
With that said, you CAN ask SM to geoblock you (you do that yourself) AND remove you from any off site ads and promotions. Some say it works, some don't. I think it worked for me. You can also do no face. IF you have a body that you can hustle without face, do it. Erotic close ups of insertions and etc will work well. I used that hustle for a while on SM, it worked. And then there's the DOM side of things. If you can pull of a good DOM, you may never have to be anything but topless, if that. Just depends on the client. Either way, it's your rules. Experiment, NEVER do anything you would be devastated if it got out there, and see what you can do. You would think some hustles would get you nowhere but honestly I make MORE money with a tank top on than in my bra. You just never know until you try everything.
Re: Worth it for part time extra income?
I was a stripper for 12 years plenty of new girls didn't last long because they didn't make money in the clubs. You think because it is adult that there is big money.... ONLY if you put in the time & effort.
There is no such thing as big money. No site will reward you with top girl status or even 1st page status after new girl tag wears off. They reward the performers who make them the most money. Go check out the girls on the bottom of the 2nd page of any cam site. Then try the 4th page of any cam site.....
NOBODY IS SUCCESSFUL AT MAKING FULL TIME MONEY WORKING A FEW HOURS A WEEK! There is no easy money, period. Those girls or couples that make great money on any cam site put the hours in, the building of regulars, working with affiliates & doing lots of their own marketing.
Geo blocking means no affiliate can market you, yes you will be hidden more which also means hidden from the money.
There are plenty of cam performers who don't make money. There are plenty of strippers who don't make money in each club, but no one ever pays attention to them. I don't care what you look like or how hot you are the predators, beggars & con artist hit all newbies hard. Then next the trolls & haters who live to make girls cry. This job has a brutal side you are completely unaware of, only a few survive & even less thrive. One never knows who will make money & who won't.
Yes, I do think it is unrealistic to expect $50 an hour. You might hit that goal once or twice but not on average.
80% of all new cam performers don't last 2 weeks. If everyone was banking then that number would be 10% don't last longer than 2 week.
