    Default Bad Connection- Which website is better?

    Hi everyone,

    I have a bad connection and it's not possible to improve it because of where I live. Because of that I can't do anything on SM. I've been doing much better on AW but it seems very slow now. So, is there any other websites that you can say doesn't demand as good internet connection as SM does? In which sites do you think my income won't be affected by the connection? (I can say this for AW, to some degree).

    Thank you all

    Maybe try cams.com? Or have you tried streamate on the lower quality settings?

    It's really hard to say since pretty much every site is pushing for the HD quality. MFC doesn't seem to require much from their streams, I see a lot of higher placed streams that are not so good. Maybe try there? Or chaturbate?

    Move? JK. A lot of ISPs are upgrading their internet to fiber since Google launched theirs last summer in Kansas City, MO. Contact your ISP to see if there are any plans for upgrades. If they don't know, wait till you have internet problems and ask the technician if he has any ideas.

    Also while your streaming make sure no one else is using the internet. Use a direct connection with an ethernet cord. Make sure to turn off your wireless.

    Also you can set your route/modem to register your computer high priority.

    Thank you for the suggestions

    Unfortunately they don't plan to upgrade it here for a while.. This is my last year in college, so I'll see where I'm gonna move then

    MFC said that they are not accepting anymore "foreign" girls at the moment..
    I will try the lower settings of Streamate, it's not brilliant but at least not choppy. My ranking won't be high but maybe I'll get lucky and get some regulars there who doesn't mind low quality feed.

    I say CB would be your best option.

    You can also sell clips and do skype shows in the mean time?

    I second Audri. I'd focus on selling clips on various sites, getting custom video clients, and so on. Many girls make a living doing just that. I wish I did this when I had no internet at home, I rented a space in town with better internet and risked being caught when I could have focused on my clip empire and filmed at home

    Depending on how slow your internet is, I'd actually steer clear of CB. If you're getting under 15fps on there, your traffic will be uber low and you'll be working way harder for less $. There are a lot of girls who are starting to streak in HD on there, which is really killing it for everyone else who cant. I'm actually about to move because of the fact my internet is too slow now for cb now. .8mbps upload used to be MORE than enough 18 months ago on there... it sadly isn't anymore. I'd definitely try clip sites and do indie shows through skype if i were you. It will be more work now, but will definitely pay off long term (especially the clips). try ELM and C4S as well. MGF is hit or miss but you an definitely sell the crap out of content.

    I'm kind of paranoid about selling clips, I try to keep the number of people who have my content low at the moment, though I'm sure none of the girls would want their content to go viral I don't really know how that works, in terms of keeping buyers from copying the content. But I'll check the clips thread now. Thanks again everyone!

    (BTW: I tried CB before, and am not amused and froze my account)

    you could do it without showing your face or getting naked. I make don't do masturbation or full nudity and my fetish clips sell uber well!
