    When I first started out camming I started with $4.99/$5.99 and I did just fine! I've played around with my prices a bit, but never have I gone lower than $3.99. So charge what you're comfortable with and know that you're worth whatever price you want to charge!

    Thank you girls for the answers! I think I've been stuck on some cheap sites also (like Imlive, CC) where anything above 3 equals dead room. But Im actively subcsribing and trying new sites. Thanks again!

    BBW would depend on what your body is shaped like. A friend/model streams that weighs 170. She looks 135 bc its all muscle.

    I dont comment on others prices, sorry, not being rude, you will not see me comment on prices unless my own.

    I raised my rates on SM from 2.99/3.99 to 3.99/4.99 and I was making $6 an hour on average more when I was at the lower rate. However, I just started using the encoder and I haven't been able to stream much so hopefully that will start to increase. We'll see. I took off geo-blocking so I could check my placement and I couldn't find myself in the first 20 pages. Does anyone know if it usually takes time for the geo-blocking to take effect? I was checking it a few hours after I removed it. I may lower my rates again just to see if the increase in private/exclusives will raise my placement. But then I'll be raising it again if it does.

    Thanks you anyway. Meet this work by an announcement of a study. They were saying that all the girls charge 1'99 except supermodel 20 years. I am happy to know that's not true.

    I have an impression that there is way more "20yo supermodels" that charge 1,99 actually. Cause they are young and not experienced, and with some tricks its not hard to look on cam like a supermodel, and there is just too many of them offering the same thing. So no, I think you start to charge more when you have something special to offer (it can be in your body, your <perverted> mind, or in some unique skills you have, or experience you have after years of training). And they do pay, cause they know they cant find it anywhere.

    *Blushes* Thank you.

    There was a incident with a member who is a long time fan suddenly asking for free shows and emailing support, live chat for added discounts on his fan club discount.
    Our relationship has not been the same. I think he is scared to log in hmm wonder why?

    I raised my CMD rates by 1$ but since I raised my prices on my main site, I need to raise my price again on CMD
    The whole point of Skype sessions is so the model makes more .. "you will make more babe" They run to CMD looking for a cheaper rate. and not tip and think I'm not timing the session. This model ends session, they know what they payed for.

    Argh, my rates are 4.99 and 5.99 on SM. Grant it I have only cammed for a total of 3 hours (1 the other day and 2 so far tonight) but the ONE time a guy was going to take me private he said I was too expensive. I probably would normally be at 3.99 & 4.99 though so I assume even if I was at that rate he'd still be a cheap ass. I hope someone buys a freaking show cause I want to quit my awful day job. </3

    I should keep my rates up right?

    3 hours is not enough time to tell if anything is working. I doubt 1 dollar is going to make a difference in whether a guy gets a show. Guys will always say "ur too expensive bb" but 4.99 is not too expensive, some models charge 6.99, 8.99+

    I'd stay at 4.99/5.99 if that's what you want to try. If you're not making decent money (to you) for a couple of weeks working at least 10+ hours a week, then you can lower them.

    Have you checked your feed to make sure it's clear? yourname.cammodels.com A lot of really slow times can be traced back to cam problems and you don't want to waste newbie status.

    P.S. I doubt it's your rates.

    ^ I actually did get two premium shows. It was pretty exciting.

    I'll still check my feed though. I don't get that many people in my room and I'd like to improve my chances the best I can.

    When you offer cheap rates you attract cheap people and these are people I don't want to play with anyway.
    My rates are 7.99/9.99 and mostly I do exclusive shows.
    If a guy has to ask what I charge (like he cant figure that out himself) I let him know I'm probably out of his price range.
    Not trying to be cocky but rather my hustle is I'm a rare thing that offers something very unique. I show and present myself so people know why my rates are what they are.
    I tell people I don't just offer a show, but rather an experience.
    Also, I'm VERY knowledgable in what I do.
    Lower rates will attract lower quality guys. Sure, you will get more shows but they won't be nearly as enjoyable and you end up having to work twice as hard.
    I'd rather stay in free chat longer than have back to back shows with guys thinking I owe them the world.
    My rate increase started initially as a joke then I realized it worked for me. Occassionally I may lower the premium rate if I'm getting guys that are wanting similar things that evening (it's hard as a Domme and Fetishist to do group shows) but other than that it's all exclusives for me.
    Also because of my higher rates in free chat I get tipped A LOT for things. So while I'm in free chat I'm still making money and enjoying myself.
    Personally I don't think any model should have a rate under 4.99/min. When girls start pricing themselves low they help guys think that this is acceptable. You are worth so much more than that!

    Also, gold shows for under a $100? It makes me sad. Gold shows, I think, should be a "special" sort of thing...not a back to back way to make money. Personally I think if you are on SM doing goldshows ONLY why not just go to a token site? Stop readily handing out vouchers and coupons. Guys will be cheap if you let them...don't let them.

    No, I don't think it's nuts. You should give it a shot for maybe a few weeks! Sounds like you've got experience as a cam girl, and also a lot of models on SM charge rates of 5.99/min. and even higher, from what I've read and heard. As said in a previous post in this thread, you don't want to attract cheap guys (guys expecting to pay 2.99/min.), and charging 5.99/min. will often times weed out the cheapasses who go room-hopping to see who's cheaper. Y'all know that's what some of these guys are doing. That's why 5 seconds into being in free chat they blurt out "5.99/minute? Are you fucking crazy?" There are plenty of men on Streamate and MyFreeCams who would pay that amount without bitching about it, and they're even gentlemen. Guys who complain about models' rates are tacky, and should take their bargain basement asses elsewhere. Lol.

    The second I went to 6.99/9.99 I started getting alot more quality clients who do longer shows. One even does hours and says that it's not long enough. I find that I'm getting guys I want to do shows with. Don't stay on the clearance rack ladies get behind the glass where they keep the valuables! Especially if you are a niche market yourself and charge as such. Offer an experience and know that those who want it and can see quality will pay what you charge. You can be busy all day every day long making pennies or you can wait a litrle longer for the generous men who treat you like the true luxury you are!

    I raised mine just a smidgen. Im not 4.24$/5.99$. I am planning on leaving my exclusive when I raise to 4.49$ and then raising it to 6.99$ when I hit 4.74$ or 4.99$. I have found I get more exclusives since I went up from 3.99/5.99

    I'm in. I'm at 8.64/7.34 right now but I'm switching over to a studio soon and they will be taking 5%. So, since I've gotten comfortable at 8.64/7.34 I'm going back up to $8.99/7.99 and that's where I'll stay.

    Would you mind sharing your hourly rate? Your comment is inspiring, and I'm wondering what you're average hour brings you. If you don't want to share, no worries! Thanks!
