    Exactly! I've found myself worrying about my percentage in paid the same as I worried about my camscore on MFC!! I think there's much more that goes into placement other than just percentage though...because my percentage is never very high (usually around 11%-20%) and I'm still on the first page placement wise.

    I will have days where my percentage in paid is 35 and I will have days like yesterday where it is 14 lol. You really just never know. I am usually on the first or second page as well. I am wondering though if by using the pause button I am messing up my percentage... I think so !

    Hello my streamateys
    Just curious what you have your rates going at nowadays, for premium chat. I have noticed if I have it set too high, I only get about one viewer at a time, if set too low, I get more viewers but still end up getting the short end of the stick. What is a good in between rate? I currently have my premium chat set at $3.69/min...this attracts guys but very few members in at the same time and spending. I feel like when I set it to $2.99 and below, I get more guys coming in and out but they still don't stay too long. I want to find a happy medium, I know it will all be trial and error, but if i could get two or more guys coming in and staying for it to be worthwhile it would be great. AND OMG the guys that come in for their free 2 mins are killing me lately lol. Just curious at what u all have ur premium rates at

    Set your price for what works for you...but I wouldn't set it for lower than $3.99 which has been suggested over and over on this forum. After experimenting with my prices I have them currently at $4.99 for private, $5.99 exclusive and that works for me. If I'm too expensive for them then they probably weren't planning on spending more than a few minutes with me in the first place...and let's face it, no one likes a minute man

    Yes, using the pause button affects your percentage.

    How so? Doesn't it just count towards your time in free chat...just the same as if you didn't pause?

    I really don't think guys get drawn in by your rates. They might balk at them but I've noticed that if they really want to see you they don't really care. I consider myself to be one in a million. I'm a niche and though there are girls who are built like me, I have my own way of hustling and I don't look anyone else. They see you, they watch you, and if they like you or you make their dicks jump they want to see you naked or whatnot. From there, your personality and or body/shows trap them, or they move on to the next. Some guys fall for us rather quickly and become regs, others just really only want to spend a few bucks and jump around until they find a girl who puts them over the edge. They nut, and when it the mood do it all over again. Not all custys are like that, but some are. My husband has spent over $700 on SM (bbwcams.com) and he's never spent more than 3 minutes in a private and tipped in a shitload of goldshows. It really didn't matter what the girl's rate was. I also noticed that he messaged some girl as her gimmick was tip me gold and you get a free gift. She wrote his name on her tits. :/

    I do not pay attention to my percentage at all. I can have a 10% day and still have 100/hr The only thing that really affects my placement is the number of hours I'm on each day.

    I'm just going to guess here. Did you do mostly gold shows without a countdown but then also have some guys jump into private between shows? The guys who aren't in pvt long enough to pay... their time in still counts. Otherwise, I'm at a loss.

    You mean that 30 seconds? Those don't count though, I believe?

    No, I was going to log off when it was "midnight" on SM, and then someone took me private. Another guy joined in while we were in the show and stuck around for a few minutes. I logged off immediately after we finished. I was just under the impression that multiple guys in prvt didn't figure into our time spent in paid chat. I found it interesting.

    Huh, then it must be a carry-over or conversion issue between SM "paid chat" time and SM's daily cutoff. But no, multiple customers shouldn't count. That's why there is a discrepancy between your "paid chat" time on your percentage paid and your "Customer's Chat Time" on your Earnings Summary... unless the discrepancy is another time-zone issue and I added wrong. I added this all up one week, and it seemed to be that multiple customers' paid time doesn't count toward your percentage. So... I guess I don't have an answer.

    Yes, weirdly enough, they seem to. At least, when I have watched my own percentage, they do.

    I don't see how they would count as no money is exchanged. While posting in this thread today I kept an eye on my percentage to see how it was and I had a couple of those guys didn't affect it at all.

    I agree it shouldn't affect it, though it seems to when I'm working. Perhaps it's just that it takes a while to update. I'll continue to watch mine.
