Some pop in and out real quick but a lot of people will stay and watch. But my rate is $1.99 per minute. I don't see too many people at $1.99 per minute. Most people I notice are a lot more. I see most performers at $3.99-$4.99. Usually new people or people with crappy equipment do $1.99 or less.
I've been told by so many performers that when you move up your rate, the traffic stays the same usually. I've tried to move up from $1.99 to $2.04 a few times and I notice when I move up my rate just a pinch, my business slows down a lot. I'll never get more than one person in premium chat and I'll get maybe a few short privates per hour. Does this happen to anyone else? Could people just not wanna take me private cause they know I raised my price? I know a 5 cent raise isn't much at all. But $1.99 just looks so much cheaper than $2.04. The only slow days I ever had was when I changed my price to $2.04. That is when I change it back to $1.99. Then I'm busy again at that rate.
How did you raise your price and how long did it take you till you went up a few dollars? I have 5 stars and offer phone and audio in private. I have a webcam but want to upgrade to a camcorder. Then I'll wanna at least be $2.99 when I get my camcorder. I do have turbo speed (business) internet and an excellent set up for my studio.
