    Default A Gread Read about Future of Camming

    If not allowed here, please move to another board. Ok So I really did some digging and found this. It refers to camgirls and saying that there's a lot of performers and lots of piracy going on. So, as you ladies probably know that when we go pvt with someone, they could be recording and blasting out. Soo.. What I see is a shift in traffic, not so much a loss. I see a lot of girls going Indy. I have yet to go Indy just because I'm so swamped with other work, I just don't have time to market myself. I use the sites traffic to bring me sales alone. So, what I get from the article is that camgirls are mainly doing work from home and no longer a studio. So as you can imagine, we have lots of power as the performer. I'd love to see your input on sales, traffic and overall earnings. I see a decline in mine on a few sites and increase on others. I just can't seem to find a consistent pattern of earnings.

    Well if you think about it. If ladies are going for indy they can charge a bit less but make more $$ for less time. So now the model is making her $$ and the customer is paying less so he's happy. Also they can have whatever contact with the custies they want. Want to sell panties. Done. Ect. If it's being done and the guys are happy then why go back to a camsite where the model is making peanuts and the customer service is horrible?( and some cam models are being favorited) If so the camsites have nothing to blame but themselves for being greedy.
    This is just my 2 cents. I can see it happening. You'll start noticing less and less traffic. Because what's to stop a girl from explaining how things work to a guy in a skype show? " Hey Big Balls07 I make 75% here so I can charge you xx less than when you see me on a big site. Or I'll give you xx free minutes when you pay for xx."
    Between that and free porn I feel is the decline in traffic. Oh and by free porn, you can put MFC in that category too. Any day I don't have to chip in to watch a hot model boning herself I consider it free. And on there I can do it All. Day. LONG.
    I personally haven't gone the way of indy just yet. Lots of work to start up. But I do keep thinking about it.

    I'm doing better than ever. The article seemed to be about actual porn movies, dvds and such which have been on the decline for many years. Piracy doesn't affect my cam income.

    When a customer wants live interaction with you in particular, nothing can replace that. Be unique. Cater to fetishes.

    this a 1000%

    while static porn (videos, pay site earnings) are on the decline, the webcam side of the industry is booming, in fact a lot of affiliates who used to promote paysites have switched to dating and cams because the income potential is much more lucrative. that benefits cam chicas as well, in that new affiliates promoting cam sites means more traffic and potential clients directed towards your cam sites. also witness the number of porn actresses who have switched to camming, or who have incorporated camming into their membership paysites. they're following the $$$$$ like everyone else.

    our $$$$$$$ isn't going anywhere any time soon, all the free tube sites in the world can't change that
