Hi there everyone! I'm so glad to have found this website! I've just started being a camgirl and I was grabbing at air trying to find sites to offer advice to me! I toyed with being a camgirl for over 2years. I'm currently an escort and figured "hey! Maybe I'll do something legal for a change!" lol
I am currently signed up on LJ.com and cams.com. Those are the 2 main places I cam right now. I have a few questions hopefully you guys can answer!(feel free to link me to a previous thread if my question was already asked, I did search however!) You can answer all or some...any help is appreciated!
1. How do you manage more than 2 live streaming cam sites at once? I do have a microphone built into my logitech procam and my laptop BUT some users don't have their speakers on etc. and ONLY want to type to you. Not only it is hard to type laying down or one handed, but replying to 3+ windows by typing is exhausting! And if you DON'T type and only speak the ones without speakers on leave the room! Ack?! I do have splitcam so streaming is not the problem...
2. What to show without showing too much? Where is the happy medium? I have some covered attire(with sneak peaks of my panty line, bra or bra/straps etc)and some lingerie that is sheer lace(that shows my nipples) They ALWAYS want you to show them more(for free) but what requests are worth doing and which are giving too much up? For example...I am laying down in my sheer lingerie. Someone wants me to stand up. I decline saying I'm comfy laying down. Is that bad? I do move from time to time, roll over, touch myself seductively, and give kissy faces etc, so I'm not just laying there looking dull, But I see some cam models bending over in thongs, doing handbras etc in FREE CHAT,and of course, they are top models? What's the medium and good practice to follow? Is saying "I'd love to do that in private for you" too 'business like'?
3. How to reel in private chats and keep them in? I find 88% of my time is spent with 1-3hours in free chat. I will get a private, try to show him what he wants(or when he doesn't specify I do a sexy strip tease that leads to my pleasuring myself etc.) then 1:05min in he exits the private chat. I'm naked(and turned on) and have to re dress, brush my hair, re apply lipstick etc. to go back into free chat. All that work for $2 and some change!And to top it off you stopped streaming on the other cam site to be able to go private with them! How do you string them along in private chat without making them feel like they are wasting money when all they want to see is your pussy?I DO talk to them, moan etc.
4. How does group shows work on cams.com? I had a guy get me for a group show, when it was only him. And since group show is cheaper than a private show rate I was kind of upset. I did not select that I was doing a group show or anything...
How do you market and get guys to sign up for your group shows? How does this feature work? (I feel like an idiot when I keep contacting their live chat support and asking questions after questions)
5. How to work a private show on LJ.com with more than one viewer? Ok so I am in private with guy#1. He is requesting things for me to do/show. Suddenly the music plays saying now guy#2 is in my private as well. Is he a Voyeur view? Or is he in private as well? How do I manage giving BOTH guys what they want to see when guy#1 was there first? (I feel like an idiot when I keep contacting their live chat support and asking questions after questions)
6. Is having a schedule super IMPORTANT? I already have guys who look for me online...problem is they are guys not paying for privates and just want to chat in free chat. "how've you been? omg you look so hot tonight" etc.
Also I have 2 dayjobs that are commission based and I NEVER have a regular schedule! I'm a dog groomer and I don't work unless there are dogs to groom! ie. one week I could work 4days a week grooming, the next week I could work NO days. I also do escorting, which of course, is never on a consistant schedule either. Should I just mark off 1-3days per week and it make it strictly camming days?
7. Users who want to "call" you or skype with you...and promise payment? I know paypal etc is not the way to go.I always politely say I only cam/chat here on xxx.com But what about guys who want to talk to you on the phone WHILE in private chat? Do girls do this? No only will they burn up my phone minutes but then they have my number and they could leave the private chat at any time and STILL have my number? The phone I have is a prepaid disposable one, so I'm not worried about them finding me through it but still? Is it a good idea to call while doing private shows?
8. So far I've worked about 9-12hours and on BOTH sites I've made around $170.Which I think is better than making $0 and sitting around my house anyways....lol While I understand it takes time to get a following etc but if I work 10hours a week how many hours worth of private shows should I expect to have?Or rather... how many would a good camgirl have if she worked 10hours in a week?
9.What are prime time cam hours? I find from 5pm-midnight CST are when I get privates and full rooms(well more than 3 members) Anytime after midnight and it's dead. I haven't tried during the day yet! What are good hours to stream?
Thanks for taking the time to read and/or respond!![]()
