    Yes, it's not as good as it used to be for me. I don't want to drop my prices because that site is already ridiculously low.

    That is my major gripe with that site, seems you have to work for way less than elsewhere so the higher percentage gets eaten up by the low price. Has been really disappointing lately so I've been concentrating on elsewhere.

    Yes! I'm likely only going to run it in the background on days when I have the energy to run a bunch of sites at once.

    Here is what I have noticed over the years. As a general rule (and there are exceptions but very few I have found) the more percentage a site offers me the lower the traffic they have.

    What good does it do me to sit for hours and make even 100% of one show when I could have a ton of shows at a lower%, get done camming in way less time and actually be able to pay my bills, actually have time to enjoy the money and have cash left over?

    I'm still hoping a site will come along and have both (and i do have high hopes for Skinvideo, but it still isn't quite there yet).

    agreed, AW is now my back up site....

    sad how things change so quickly in the cam world.

    I haven't been on AW in a few days but I agree, the last week on there has been pretty slow. I have a fair bit of regulars so it's not terrible, but I'm definitely not making as much as I'd prefer. AW is becoming my gas money site, not my bill-covering site as I had planned.

    Although AW did give me a VERY high-spending regular so I will be eternally grateful.

    @CamWhore: yeah but at the same time my rates are lower than 2... so :p If you're can deal with a bit of free chat and just a bit of "twirls" (well twirl for regulars and such) then you can make it your main... It's my main site at the moment.

    trying to go to streamate though, if i can just be on for like 2 hours and make over 150.... i'd be happier than a pig rolling in poo lol

    also about the new girls I noticed it too. Don't be phased though, many of them (from what my regulars and people coming into my room) have a "nasty american attitude". one guy called it "the attitude little wayne gives".

    needless to say i lol'd then banned him. he was stupid.
    p.s- no im not endorsing Lil Wayne i don't like him. just saying stupid remarks are stupid.

    Atm aw is running at just under twice the normal traffic, the same amount it had at xmas during the busy periods. Maybe change the profile abit.

    In the future just after I move house here in 2-3 weeks im gonna try a small experiment on aw, im going to open a thread and ask for help with it. The experiment is to try and prove that you can make a fortune on aw if done right so I will be working with a performer from here to get a target of 2800 credits a week (400 per day worked) with someone who is relatively new to aw (in dp or not, doesnt matter).

    I pay members on aw who can get hundreds of creds each day they work with seemingly little effort and I think higher numbers can be possible for most members here.

    But then again, aw isnt suited for everyone and you have to find which site works for you.

    Well sign me up Princessjenny lol No, really! haha


    But yes, I agree with the others, I have had much slower traffic since xmas, and my rates are no different to then. Also, I notice less girls in shows now, then I saw then.

    I have a decent profile on there, I would consider I had pretty good potential, but it's just not buzzing for me there like I would love it to.

    My prices are not *high* as camming prices go, but if I'm not going to get business there unless I go to 0.99, it's not going to happen.

    I tried a day where my costs were under 2.00 but I didn't notice any more traffic when they were over 2.00, honestly.

    The thing that kills me is that I did used to do well on there and charge more than I am now. I'm not sure if it's the price competition or what. I'm going to make some new pics and see if that helps. I really hate to lower my price when I was used to getting way more.

    I went from 1.60 got decent traffic, went to 1.00 credit got little to no traffic...moved to 2. credits , maybe 1 show per day....

    I just dont see why I should have to chare so LOW to be succesful.

    1 credit is:

    about 1.60 usd - %35 = AROUND $1 PM AKA mIGHT AS WELL CAM ON nAKED.COM

    What kills me is seeing so many profiles from Romania and Philippines with the prices of 0.60 for both group and private and the line: "I'LL DO ANYTHING FOR YOU, BABY" in their profiles. Ugh.

    I would LOVE to be your test subject Jenny. Honestly, I love AW and I think I have a lot of potential there, I just haven't quite hit my stride yet. Maybe I'm not putting in enough hours, maybe I'm not promoting myself right. But dammit I wanna be one of those high earners.

    Wonder how long it'll take for a catfight to break out amongst us, clamoring for Jenny's attention! hehe.

    Yes, very slow traffic! OMG! I didn't read anyone else's responses, yet
    I will say that last week was great made my rent for the month; I committed 3 hours to free chat today also.

    5 mins later:

    It's been fine for me, but it's been maybe 60% regulars. I'm just under 2 credits with free chat enabled, and I've been going on during the evenings (UK time). I also go through periods where I spend a few days elsewhere so the regs get in the habit of buying privates when they see me, since they don't know when I'll be MIA. I don't know if that's the smartest strategy since most people say consistency is important, but it's been working for me.

    I don't think the girls from Romania or the Philippines are drawing any traffic away. When I check the feedback on the guys who hotlist me, I never see those names. Those girls fill a niche for the guys who don't care whether the girl talks or not, or want some seriously hardcore, questionable activity. The guys I attract are kind of the opposite. They're pretty chatty and generally happy just to see some tits, pussy, and a little toy action.
