    Default Something most people may not know about AW

    Theres always talk about splitcam + which site to go on etc but did you know that AW also always directIM? Its just typing without the webcam. So while your on your normal cam site you can start up AW directIM and leave it in the background for clients too. I know a handful here use it but im thinking the majority of members may not of known it existed.

    Heres the link to change between Cam and IM for justcamit:


    Also remember pictures are key on AW, the more pics you have the more clients you get as pictures and exposure are directly related.

    People on daily pay will receive an email update about the benefits of DirectIM shortly.

    That's wonderful

    I just attempted to follow that link and I got this message:

    Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a000d'
    Type mismatch: 'CLng'
    /dlgDirectCamSettings.asp, line 25


    Is there some other way to access it?

    So what's a good rate to charge for for group IM? What about private?

    As its only typing maybe group 0.60 private 0.90? I have seen these rates used with success. Try them and if you get too many then slowly increase. But remember to be adding pictures while camming or chatting via AW or it wont work as good for you.

    I am currently doing rehab for an inured knee, so I may try it out while I am unable to cam. Can't hurt. Thanks!

    Why is it important to add pics while chatting or camming?

    From Jenny's email the other day:

    The Key to success on Adultwork is a good steady flow of pictures being updated on your account (While your on cam). Adultwork ranks you based on last updates to your profile. So while your on camera and you have no clients just simply start to update your pictures and the clients will arrive.
    Just wondering -- does it have to be pictures? Aside from the obvious benefit of having lots of photos on your profile, will you still be ranked if you just change some text or add a blog entry or something like that?

    A few years ago , I remember I Used to open my profile and change my content to an added fullstop, and it would fetch me more traffic - If it's anything like it was then , the more things you update , the more exposure . So while simply changing what's written would up your profile in recently updated , adding pictures updates you in 'recently added photos' ( which obviously draws guys eyes in ) and videos would do likewise but for video equivalent - Basically the more the merrier ! But yeah , any update is better than no update , picture or otherwise.

    Yeh thats exactly right. The most viewed ranks are the lastest pics and the search "members online last updated available for webcam".

    If you update while not on cam or not intending to cam directly after then your only updating for the sake of it and you wont be ranked high on the lists when you do go to cam.

    I'm very confused right now!!!! I made myself available, but NOT signed on direct cam yet. I uploaded a new video, and a pic. So doing this while NOT on cam, will not make a difference? I need to do all this stuff while logged on direct cam, in order for me to go higher on the list???

    I am just confused lol sorry. I don't get it.

    You'll go higher on the list but if your not on cam you can really take any money in.

    Its like owning a shop. You do alot of advertising by flyers, people get them, read them and decide to head over to your shop but the shop is closed.

    So people will see your profile but they cannot spend money because your not online for them.

    They can of course buy pvt pics or movies but this is very low income compared to being on directcam.

    Thanks PrincessJenny, I get it now. And you're right, they buy my pics and videos but not all the time. I do make money like that, but not a whole lot.

    I upload videos in .wmv files, and they are not very long. Just a few minutes in length. Sort of like a teaser video. Are you videos very long? I use to have this problem when I had videos lasting longer than a certain amount of minutes.

    When you click on add movie clips, did you see this on the top right of the page?

    "Got large WMV movies? Having upload problems? Getting timeouts?
    Reliably upload via FTP with no size or time limits! Click here."

    I found I had less trouble using this section.

    Im on a Mac, so all my movies are in .mov format, the FTP client says I can only upload .wmv files to it. Also, my videos are between 3 and 10mins, I shoot them for clips4sale, but Id rather get my currency paid everyday for them than wait for $$ once a month payment from C4S.

    I love AW, but I am SOOOO frustrated with the site, using JustCamIt in my browser because Im on a Mac means my cam goes black all the time, like very few minutes, but I dont know this till someone says something resulting in lots of wasted time of no money made.

    Oh I'm sorry...I hear Mac can give a lot of trouble. There are 2 different versions of justcamit, have you tried both? I think PrincessJenny has the lite version on her help site. I wish I could help but don't know about Mac pc's at all

    I think 21st may be using the online version already. Change codec if you havent already, theres no straight fix for the black screen that I know of sorry.

    Also for movies. This is a general hint for all AW performers. If its taking you a long time to upload then your sales of the movie will be affected as it will also take a long time to download for the client. They like everything instant so having a low MB size can really help in selling movies. Id suggest converting them to a smaller file type then upload. If mac is unable to do this you can upload to [email protected] or transfer via MSN. MSN is set to auto so you can transfer at anytime + the file will be converted and sent to the site so you dont have to worry about getting it right.

    Jenny, you're a gold mine.

    Okay, I wanna be trying this out tonight, so I'd love some helpful hints.
    Is this a popular feature? I've seen girls charge these prices for webcamming, do people actually pay this price for IM only?

    About 1/5 of all cam performers on AW use this feature so popular enough. Its hit and miss again on rates until you find the one that suits you. But people do pay a fair bit just for this service. Daily pay has 2 performers whos sole income is directIM.

    Worth a try as is doesnt conflict with any other cam sites while you do it.

    My period should make an appearance soon, so I'll spend that time on DirectIM and let you girls know how did it go in a few days. Certainly worth a try!

    PrincessJenny, you're a doll, thank you.
