Ok the weekend is near! I have read how awful SM is, so I am going on Cams.com! Maybe I can do better there! Now do any of you work on that site if so, do ou make more on nude chat or free chat. I love how you can see how much money they have!

Free chat's better. The only time I stayed in nude chat is when I used to splitcam with MFC. Every now and then I'll get someone but its not as frequent as if you just stay in free.



ok thanks





been on cams and streamate for 8 years, i feel so old.

I was just now signing up for it and came here to find this thread.... guess I'll try to post updates on my findings! I wasn't going to sign for anymore networks, but my big newbie mistake was signing up for homecams (stay away from there if you like food in your pantry... worse traffic ever, unless its a summer slump, then I'll eat my words later on!) so I was looking for a replacement back-up site.




Pls do!! I just made a post yesterday...curious about cams.com. I have seen it around for years, but have never looked into it.





There are many threads and posts about Cams.com if you use the search.




i'm going to try working cams.com on and off with streamate over the next four days (before i officially pack up and get my ass out of here and won't be on cam for 1-2 weeks!)...gotta make that money!
good luck to the ladies who are trying it too!


What is the amount you can charge on Cams.com? Is it similar to SM in that you can charge higher prices?
I was going to sign up for cams.com, but I got completely turned off by the whole 'you have to show your face in free chat every X amount of time.'







You can charge from $2.49 - $9.99 on cams.com. HOWEVER... I have spent a lot of time playing with my rates on there and basically, anything over $3.99 and the guys tell you how "expensive" you are. I had my rates at $8.99 for a long time because I only use cams.com for the nude chat option so I set the rates high to discourage privates, and I got a private maybe once a week... seriously. I now have it at $6.99 and I get maybe 3 privates per week. No kidding. LOL! And I'm a very high placed model on SM so it's not like.... me... or anything. The guys there are just EXTREMELY cheap.
The best thing about cams.com is their nude chat feature. But, if you are not into charging low prices you probably wouldn't care much for it. Nude chat is basically a group chat, multiple guys can enter for a lower rate, I charge $1.99/min for nude chat. I always try to get on during happy hour when I can at $.99/min because I just run it in the background during other privates and basically ignore it... but the guys there seem to love nude chat so it can really add up. I make about $40-50 per 4-5 hour shift just running it on ignore on nude only. And with the low percentage payout... that's not too shabby!
But... it adds up. For a site without much traffic, and with CHEAP traffic, it's okay to split with but in my experience it's nothing to rely on as a main site.
Regarding showing your face, I was told by support you have to show your face once per hour for a minute or so. And it doesn't have to be shown in free, you could hop into nude chat, show your face for a minute and be good.
Another thing to keep in mind regarding cams.com is that they record all your privates (and some of your time in nude chat) and archive them for your fan club members to be able to replay. They are not able to download the videos, only watch them in their browser. Also non fan club members can watch the recorded shows for $1/min. The fan club can be a nice little extra bit of money if you work enough hours to get the payout percentage for the fan club high. The fan club amount is pre set.. I think $14 or so and the percent you get varies based on how many hours you work. Right now I'm earning 75% payout for working 60-80 hours in the previous 30 days. You can earn 100% for 80+ hours in the previous 30 days. The idea is to set your fan club private rate low to encourage guys to join the fan club, that really adds up too!
One last thing, don't let the pay percentage fool you. They say they pay 45% but this is not completely accurate. It actually works out to be 29% after "credit card processing and marketing expenses". They also DO have chargebacks. They are rare, but they can happen.

Thanks for the explanation, Sarah! I've been camming on Cams and I wondered why guys wouldn't take me to private. I just thought they wanted everything in free. Nope, I'm too damn expensive for them!They do like cam2cam and tips though, so that helps a lot.
ETA: I've been seeing good traffic on there for the most part. Sometimes it's hard for me to catch up. I've been on a promoting spree, though. I'll have to take advantage of "happy hour" when I have the time.





Well?? I was charging 4.99 per min for the longest time.. for me it results in more fan club members. same pay less work. now i am testing out 5.49 per minute to see if i make the same amount , less or more?
So, I played with my prices I bit and I've been getting more privates. One guy complained about my prices and said that some girls "sell their soul for .49 per minute." I called him a one minute man and banned his ass lol. My rating has been going up though and I get a lot of guys in my room. I like it, so far. Busier than SM, imo.
Guys keep asking me if I do phone in private. I looked everywhere and didn't see anything about adding a phone like in SM. Are they just trying to get my phone number?
Also, payday is tomorrow. I have direct deposit set so does that mean I won't receive it until Monday?
@LadyCoco I never did phone on Cams. I don't think they even have it as an option. I'm sure some girls still offer it though. They probably have a phone number set up through skype or google voice, get the guys number in pvt, and call him. Cams is pretty cray with their rules and strictness, I wouldn't even chance it. It usually takes like 3-4 days for me to get my direct deposit so yeah you will probably get it around the 5th.





Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get fan club sign ups on cams.com??? I am FINALLY at 100% fan club payout and I really want to take advantage of the fan club earnings, but I only have 12 members!I have my fan rate set at $2.99!
Any suggestions?
xoxo ~ Sarah
@SarahTime Maybe tell all the members that come into your room about it. Also tell your twitter followers. You could promote your fanclub like its your members area. Like "get access to all of my personal videos, photos, and private blogs all for $_.__ a month". "While I'm offline you can still get your fix by joining my members area"...etc. Maybe even buy a domain name that you can point to your cams account so that it will be easier for customers to find and easier for you to promote.
I'm really annoyed with Cams.com right now. I gave the wrong banking information and I didn't receive my last payment. So, I changed the default payment and I've been back and forth with accounting. Still haven't received my pay.
ah im sorry! thinking about signing up but payment issues are a nightmare. that drove me away from chaturbate





Well? Keep updating it for one.. cuz it shows it is updated even if you just change one lil thing, second of all i charge 4.99 per min for regular privates on there and offer $1 off fan club rates .. I have 21 fan club members , now the most I have ever had is around 30 that was beginning of 2012.. I would love some more fan club members to.. Love them bitches! .. not sure otherwise, i can't seem to get anymore.
