    Thumbs up Streamate's best time to be live?

    Hey everyone, I have only been Live on SM for 3 nights (8:30pm-1am) . I started on a saturday and I made $106.00 for about 4 hrs. Sunday I made half that, and Monday was pretty bad I think, I only made $25.00 for 3 hrs . Please Let me know are my numbers low, average, or what? I need some good tips from girls working SM...

    Im curious to know what other SM cam models made their first few nights live ???!!!

    I average about $100 a day if I'm slumming it, but I'm working up towards $200 daily. I only work for a few hours, though. And you need to experiment to find good hours, just like any site. But I would keep this in mind:
    Where is the site based? Expect most viewers to be from that country.
    When will people with money--MEN WITH JOBS--most likely be home?
    When will they most likely be alone?
    That's how I figure out my schedule. I'm not going to spell out when I work, but you should be able to use these clues to figure out when is profitable. Also, someone once said that weekends when the bars close (2am-ish) is good. I've never done well, then, but that doesn't mean anything. Good luck!

    personally I find early mornings and late nights to be the best time to be on SM. The afternoons are the WORST. especially around noon-5 (i'm eastern time zone).

    You should try different times if you aren't happy with what you are making. Everyone says to get on a schedule, but before you do that I would think you should find a time where you feel confident that you will be making money.

    hmm thanks girls, I noticed this morning that it seemed like a awesome time to jump online. Im going to have to try early mornings, see how it goes. I have only tried nights up to 1am...

    Also what is your payout method with SM? I chose Payoneer, my payoneer account isn't fully activated yet, but on SM its checked as payout method w/ Payoneer. Should I switch my payout method to cheque until my Payoneer account is approved? I dont want any problems with my first check(s). I saw SM takes 3 weeks to start giving your checks to you? Does this mean you get week 1-3 in 3 weeks or is it backed up and u only receive week 1 ? then from there on you start getting cheques but for a few weeks before the week you just finished working..? haha i hope im making sense to u all. Hope someone can answer this question, i would really like to know .

    I second this. I have experimented with hours/times and find I actually do best during the day. It really depends on you.

    I don't know what time zone you are in but 1 AM to 4/5 AM Pacific time USUALLY sucks for most everyone. I usually work overnight (can't sleep much). I am always on the home page (1st to 3rd row), some times very top spot and, even then, it sucks sometimes. I see even some of the very top girls not being able to achieve half of their gold show goal at those times.

    Now, in camming, nothing is set on stone. That is the period of time I usually work and I make decent money every week. But most of the guys are jobless beggars at that time and you got to be lucky to have the right guys visit your room to make some money. There were times when working those overnight hours was great and I made more than I usually make at that same time, but those days were the exception to the rule. At least in MY experience, usually that period of time is pretty slow and you have to work more hours to make the same amount as you would at the guys-with-a-job-high-traffic time.

    You never know when you will make money. But at least it is a job there waiting for you to turn it on and go to work 24/7.

    Some girls do best by having a schedule and sticking to it. I do best by winging it. Mixing it up all the time. Catching people early in the morning to maybe a great afternoon, or late night.

    Experiment with times, your looks & outfits. Have fun...

    Smooches,

    i find that i do the very best in the afternoon. anywhere from 12-6pm. i use natural light for my cam and this makes me much more money than using a lamp. i think i look better with the room full of light and light on me. i feel like i look healthy and it flatters my curves better in natural light.

    while using a lamp the lighting is too flat even tho its bright. since i've been using natural light, i tried going back to using a lamp in the evenings. i made nothing.

    Try it out for your self. We all love to help around here, but really just because one girl banks on one hour doesn't mean it will be the hour you should work too, ya know?

    All we can do is tell you the best time for each of us, which might be different when it comes to you or any other girl. You are going to hear all 24 hours in the day that any given girl is going to say is their personal best time to be on. Try out some different shifts and find out what works for you.

    For me, I work from around 10pm to around 2 or 3 am central time and that's when I make the most money.

    Also comparing what you have made is the same as comparing what hours are best to work. It's not going to be the same for everyone and there is no magic number or magic set of hours.

    Trial and error. That's what we all have to do.
    xoxo ~ Sarah

    For me, 8am-11am est is good.
    10pm-12am is good.

    12pm-5pm is horrible.
    5am-8am is dead.

    Weeknights seem to be good for me when week days suck.
    Weekend days are usually better while weekend nights are slow.

    That's just me but you'll have to figure out whats best for you.

    Some of the hours that others have said are horrible are good for me and same with the hours some bank on. I really do think it is different for everyone and it changes all the time. No rhyme or reason seems to me.

    I usually sign on around 7pm eastern time and work as long as it stays busy. I usually do well at that time. Thursday seem to always be slow for me. I have no idea why. I have tried afternoons but it just seemed to be the freeloader type. I am going to try early tomorrow. We will see!
