    Yes, it's been very quiet...even the other day when I was constantly uploading a pic to my profile every 15 minutes or so (to get my placement up higher).

    AW has been too quiet for me to work on since about July/August, and I'd been working exclusively on that site since I started camming which was about 3 years ago and I'd always done really well there. I've given up on it and have been doing much, much better on another site instead. It's a shame because AW is such a good site to work on - they don't interfere with anything, you can set your own prices and the customers are mostly gentlemen.. but it just isn't worth it any more, at least for me.

    I prefer AW to what I've seen of the others...and with my hours being 10am - 3pm UK time, I think it's the best for working those hours too. It's been slower this year for me than last year.

    a bit on the quieter side today...I'd really like to make a site work other than SM or MFC so I'm trying to stick it out...

    Would it be crazy to lower my prices if I'm not super established yet? What I offer is pretty basic...and I'm at 1.05 and 1.50. And what happens is a guy will ask if I offer xyz in private and I 'll say yes. I think then he checks my rates and leaves. I'm thinking this is a site that actually responds well to lower prices rather than a SM type deal where the skys the limits in terms of raising rates .

    Default SM slow as hell!!!!!

    So I've decided to rant and rave lol. I apologize in advance and already look forward to eyes rolling.. but DAMNIT seems like Ive had no success on SM!!! Ive been working for a couple of months now and the most I've made in one day is $120.. usually I make about $70. I feel like a cam girl failure!!! I don't have my other job anymore so all the money I bring in is from camming... considering just looking for a whatever job as a safety net because camming isnt going as smoothly as I thought. I was on SM today for 6 hrs and had NO privates and NO tips. guys would pop in and out.. I dont know what I'm doing wrong.. I try to be bubbly and greet everyone with a smile.. put on a sexy act (without looking desperate) and bam.. NOTHING! uuuugh idk, i was hoping to make around $150 a day but thats looking like an impossible goal. Thanx for listening to my rant ladies... sigh.....=(

    How many hours are you working? If you are working full days, and have been on a few months, SM may not be the site for you....have you tried some other sites as well?

I was talking to hubby about aw, told him I needed passport, he gave me the ok to get one, so just may do that. But still reading up on other sites. I hope it picks up for you!!

    I was thinking about that too, but want to make sure its at a time were I can use the new girl status the best I can. I messed up on sm and waited to get approved for daily pay before I started, missing that precious new girls time.

    I normally don't like to chime in since things can change so quickly, but it's actually been very slow for me since June. I patiently waited for summer to end, thinking it would get better, but it's been slower each week. My category has been flooded w/ new girls since summer which hasn't helped. I've added a new site & plan to add another with the next month or so. I have a geo-restriction & won't opt in for tv, so I accept that it's partially my fault for not allowing them to exploit me.

    However, it's had more o an effect than I anticipated. I get discouraged but I try not to have a victim mentality. I'm self-employed, which means that I need to take responsibility for my income. Since SM is no longer providing the paying traffic I need, I have to seek other sources of income.

    Girl you are sooo NOT alone!As you know,Ive been camming for almost two wks now.I know its laughable lol I feel ridiculous even chiming in since im such a newbie but I did want to say that the past cple days for me were just total hell.I had hundreds and hundreds of guys coming into my rm throughout the day,no gold at all but asking every question in the book.i finally just stopped answering ALL questions-Ive noticed the ones that are intent on taking you to private/exclusive tend to not ask questions in guest chat.The amount of freeloading sons of bitches on there is ridonculous!My rates are as high as they can go at the moment so raising them to get rid of the moochers is out of the question right now.Yest and day before i made like $15-20 a day,and that was working FULL days.but then today i hopped on for like 4 hrs and broke the $100 mark finally.I know its thurs and everyone is extremely broke by this time but i didnt have a whole lot of luck last wknd either.Seemed like there was just a TON of guys who wanted to do everything EXCEPT spend money.So im not so sure the wknd will show much of a difference.Im just trying to change up my style,if being bubbly isnt working for me ill be bitchy.If everyone logs off the second i greet them(does anyone have this happen too?ill have guys sit there forever,the second I acknowledge them,POOF!theyre gone)then ill ignore them and boot their asses if they dont throw gold/take me private.I may be a new girl but thanks to SW im not a STUPID new girl!I know i have ALOT to learn but Im still steadily trying to find my lil place in the camming sun,and Im sure you will too sweetie.The economy sucks right now,ppl are hurting badly moneywise so im sure they has alot to do with it as well.They dont want to stop logging in and seeing tits and ass,they just cant hardly afford it anymore lol keep your chin up chick,im trying to as well.im gonna ask the obvious question- is your upload speed good,do you have a good computer and are you using the encoder?that definetely seems to make a world of difference

    We can have lower rates on AW as we have a much higher percentage paid to us than other sites...personally, I wouldn't charge less than 2 credits for private...when you raise your rates, your clients also change for the better. A low group rate can work but it's a pain when it's low and the site is too quiet to get more than person in at a time. The guys asking if you do x,y,z may just be time wasters getting off on hearing what you do...if they do check your rate, they may be thinking you're not really offering those things because you're price is under 2 credits, I really would raise it. I found 1.90 and 2.20 were my sticking points between different clients...as in some won't go above those prices and some won't go below.

    Also there are lot of Eastern Europeans who are charging low rates...a credit is worth a lot more to them and guys tend to prefer girls who speak English as their first language, so communication is easier. Having said that, if you look at the directcam section from the front page (top left corner), you can see who is in group and private, and the prices...there's usually more girls charging lower rates in a session than the ones charging higher.

    AW isn't the place for super high rates unless you're claiming to be a porn star, and I don't know how well they do. This is just what I've observed in the daytime, evenings/nights could be different.

    Sigh.. i hear what u are saying, but shit! these guys gotta know we do this for money. I hate when they carry on like i WANT to be there talking to them. Of course I dont act uninterested but they should know this is our JOB. If I get one more guy asking 'would u be down for this in real life bb??" im going to flip. like really???? really!?!?!? im not a fucking escort im a cam girl. if you want a prostitute look else where. Idk ppl just try to shoot the shit with me over stuff that has nothing to do with the site. I end up just ignoring them because I really dont care what u have to say unless its 'ready for pvt?' lol idk im bitter right now. spent 10 hrs of my life today on SM for $25 >=(

    I wouldn't recommend switching to Adultwork!

    "ready for pvt" on AW means - "I want to make you stand up or do something extra or get excited thinking I'm going to take you into a pvt session when I'm really just a freeloader" Or maybe these guys just don't understand how the site works and can't find the pvt button!

    Honestly, the last 4 privates I've had (the only last 4 I had in the last two days) I got from TALKING to them for quite a while before they took me private.... I would show my ass and play with my bra about once per hour (and most of them only stayed about less than half hour in free) and just being real, I talked about tv shows and what I wanted to dress up as for halloween and was just overall GOOFY as hell and then they would interrupt ME talking about blah blah blah random crap and be like, SO DO YOU WANT TO GO PVT OR NOT? Oh well yes, bb, I didnt realize you were so horny!! BAM private.... and good, long privates. That's just been my experience in the last week though :/
