    The take I believe is 65% , performers get 35% so 1 Gold = 35c.

    I'm a foot fetish specialist who rarely uses toys other than for footjobs & do considerably well for myself. I'm marketed as a Domme who does get nude, but rarely do I penetrate myself. There are plenty of fetishes to cater to that do not require penetration: SPH, JOI, CEI, foot fetish, CFNM, Strap-on, humiliation, degradation, etc.

    You can do well without penetration.

    You don’t even have to do fingers if you don’t want to, or any type of masturbation show at all. You could do purely tease/worship shows, fetish, fem dom, nonnude, etc.

    Do girls actually use geoblock restrictions?
    I remember once I thought geoblocking restiction is stupid after hearing that it messed up with traffic and in the same week that I didn't have my country blocked one of my old classmate conctated me on socials that she saw me live on Pornhub ad pop up "horny local girls". She wasn't a close friend and had no idea I was in the camming industry before that, it was an alwful situaion..
    i've been on SM for a long time and have had long periods of time with geoblocking on and off.

    the two main reasons i had it on was to prevent local people from finding/seeing me, because at the time i had another side job that was very social and public. my main concern was getting doxxed. the other reason i liked having geoblock on was because when you geoblock you are WAY less likely to have any of your SM content uploaded to tubesites. this is because a lot of what gets uploaded comes directly from streamate or a white label, because they are allowed to use recordings of your live shows as "promotional material" as it is stated in the contract. however if you have geoblocking on, they are not allowed to do this, so the amount of your shows that end up elsewhere on the internet decreases dramatically. it also means they won't use your photo or live stream in porn ad pop ups.

    i had geoblocking on for about two years, though i had been on the site without using geoblock for about three years prior. the first month or two that i turned geoblocking off, i noticed a substantial decrease in traffic and a lot more "dead time" in my room. but i just hustled harder and converted a higher percentage of the fewer customers coming in. i made *slightly* less money on average, but was still generally able to hit my goals, though with more time/effort.

    a few months ago i turned my geoblock back off. my traffic has increased a lot and it's made me have a much better/easier time financially than when i was trying to cam in 2020 with geoblock on. there are just a lot more models online these days because of the pandemic, and having geoblock off definitely seemed to improve my placement and traffic.

    I am a toy model, toys cost extra in private which means probably 40% of my privates don’t have toys and privates are less then a third of my earnings on average. I already get so annoyed beyond belief at the guys who can’t read and demand toys all the time. I am not that patient of a person though. Still if you don’t want to use toys put that info somewhere on your profile for your own mental health.

    I enjoy toy shows so I am coming from a different perspective and customer base. If you market yourself well you can kill it doing no toys.

    If you are using the chrome browser with the extension you can just click on the lovense icon in the top right corner and the drop down will say 'update' at the top if it isn't up to date, you can click on that and follow the instructions.
    Thank you, I haven't got any of those things haha apart from the Connect app on my phone, I followed the instructions on SM, turn on vibe, connect to app, make sure connected to SM, that's it. Are all the things like browsers and extensions needed? It did start working again today so I don't know what was going on with it!

    If you don't mind answering, how much extra do you charge for toys? I have considered offering extra for vibrators, and other certain things. I just don't know where to begin as far as price points.

    I just do 10, weeds out the guys who think that’s a lot, who are gonna be demanding anyway. Also assures a longer private which will get more guys joining. Toys stop when the guy who tipped for the toy leaves.

    I do plenty of finger/vibe only long shows, they usually fall into my exclusive category though. Those are guaranteed to be personalized down to the name, outfit, cam position, etc. Since I don’t really do gold shows I like to offer a flexible crowd pleasing show in private.

    Anyone else deal with an insane number of dudes who refuse to read? I make it SO clear that I don't accept cam2cam or requests in private, and I also have in huge letters NO LOCATION QUESTIONS on my chat bio, but every dude asks where I am in Australia and i get 1 star reviews when I won't jump through hoops for demands in private chat! My god! men hurt me haha

    On the bright side SM is so good at removing unfair 1 star reviews!!

    I took my geoblock off cause I heard it slows traffic. Of course an an ex pops in. Well his username was my ex’s but his name is unique. Surprised he didn’t say something? Still though...unnerving.

    Thank you! Charging for toys is brilliant, and I like your hustle. I agree that privates are much more profitable than gold shows. Privates are always my money maker.

    I try to do this wherever possible but they're only ever asking because they think me being in the same country as them (Australia) means they have a chance with me. It grinds my gears so much. I've started saying I live on the moon

    Really? It’s the complete opposite for me! I always end up with one guy who stays a while then a load of peepers in and out, so I’d much rather do exclusive!

    Those guys who think same country= possibly of meet up are always delusional.

    A large chuck of these guys don’t know how to flirt. They lack social skills, or at least they do when hard. It’s just a question that they feel is more polite to ask before telling us the dirty things they want to do with us at the moment. Some guys skip the pleasantries all together. I just state my region just as I do on here. Anymore questions and I will then usually give a bitchier answer. I just give my initial location answer with the same energy I give when they ask how was my day. They often don’t give a fuck about our answer.

    Yes, definitely! Do you get paid by check?
    Last week it arrived Monday, not today, but then we've had 2 blizzards, & extreme cold temps.. It's now snowing again, I hope to get it tomorrow, but it's been as late as Wednesday

    Yes, that can vary as well.
    I just got a bank transfer, not SM, last week.
    Here, within US, generally they hit early am.

    SM checks get mailed out Thursday, but for int'l transfer Idk.
    This month, we (USA) have a bank/postal holiday mid February, 'President's Day', Feb. 25th, Monday

    Yes, I have a few different ways to encourage more to join in private. One way that sometimes works is keeping a big price difference between the two, and I offer more things in private. Many girls on here like exclusive better, but the group experience works best for me. I love gold shows but they don't seem to do well anymore.

    Oh yeah, fair enough. That makes sense. I just broke down and bought a Brio which should arrive later this week and I'm hoping I like it better/it can handle my mood lighting a bit better.

    Do you/anyone else have the issue where SM only lets them zoom in once with logitech camera settings? It's not super helpful
