    Default Adultwork tips

    I've been working adultwork for years now. Just lately I'm making barely any money whatsoever. I'm in free chat and all im getting is cheapskates. I haven't got many pictures up as my ability to take pictures is really rather poor. Is there any tips on how to get out of this blip that I'm currently in? I'm getting quite disheartened about camming tbh

    Pretty sure you are not the only.Aw been dead this month.Pics dont really matter ,especially when you are in free chat ,I always have to send them to my gallery but they rather beg in free for ass instead of watching the pics I ve got.
    Is just a bad month,hang on in there,thats the only advice I can give to anyone on aw right now.I ve tried like everything :updating profile (wording and pictures),playing with rates,new outfits,even changed my camming background and nothing worked.It will get better,always does.Till then you might want to try another site as well.

    Whilst it is true that this month has been slow for many of us, not just on AW but most sites, it is also true that the more fresh pics/clips/content you upload to your profile the better and it DOES make a difference to how much you make.
    In the meantime you might want to have a read through this thread https://www.stripperweb.com/forum/sh...ultWork-Thread All things AdultWork can be found within

    2.15pm on a Thursday afternoon...I don't normally go on Thursdays as it's the slowest day of the week but a regular asked me to...there are 6 pages of girls, 6!!! I have never seen 6 pages during the daytime (before 2.30pm)...it used to be 3 pages!

    AW is my side site but it has been pretty busy for me, picked up after holidays. For me when I first started I used free chat didnt know any better. One day I figured out you can set your room to pvt and not have to sit around all day and deal with the trolls all day amazingly I started making some money then. Most guys will come in just to see what you look like but if they like the package theyll stay and it adds up.

    Free preview works best for many of us. Do you charge the same as your friend? Would she mind if you went into her room when she's in free and see what she's doing? Is she newer than you? Are you sure she's making as much as she says?

    If I do free chat on AW I set it to the minimum 5 minutes. Even so most profiles now take a snapshot when you log in of what you look like so guys can see you at that very moment . Honestly I wish they allowed you to take that shot because sometimes i have a really weird look on my face and it probably ruined privates for me that day. lol

    A month isn't long at all, so she's fresh blood for the AW guys. How long have you been there?

    My partner took my profile pics with my camera. Other pics are snapshots from movies. It's helpful to have movies and a private gallery too.

    Do you have a good HD webcam and internet? I use a wired connection, I have high speed broadband and a logitech c920 webcam, I use an HD blue snowball mic as well. It's not a guarantee to more shows but it all helps.

    Also I have increased my prices slightly I was at 1.75 grp and 2.25 pvt and a few regulars I had have moaned about it. Also been told by a few on adultwork I'm too expensive! Maybe that's why I don't know.

    Ignore Adultwork, it's just looking at the average and is factoring in the Eastern European studios that charge low. You can play with your rates and see what works best for you...I'm only on for a short while during the day so I don't have the luxury of sitting around waiting for someone to pay a high rate. Charges seem to be lower in the daytime. You can lose regulars by raising your prices but then hopefully you'd find new ones...you tend to get different guys at different prices.

    2009 wow! I've been on AW since 2011 and I was busiest in my 1st year, as most seem to be. There are so many new girls on AW now, probably telling their friends how much money they're making and then they join too, eventually you're not seen as new anymore and the girls who told their friends wonder why they're suddenly not earning as much. Other sites may have the traffic for constant streams of new girls but AW just doesn't. There were 6 pages on a dead Thursday afternoon yesterday, the most I've ever seen...crazy. Twitter is a good idea, all extra marketing helps.

    I don't think the 9000 is HD but lots of girls use it, I had one till I dropped it while filming a movie. Streamate is an option. If I get that fed up in free, I go into paid only...its better than logging off altogether. I know it's hard but you really can't compare yourself with someone who has just joined, or anyone else really as we're all unique. Just got to make the most of the things that make us unique.

    I am considering lowering my prices slightly during the day and increasing them at night. Lowest I will go mind you is 1.50 grp and 2 pvt but I may come out of free for that. You are right we are all unique. I used to make £70 a night when I first started and now it's hit and miss. Some nights I'll make that and then other times I won't make a thing. I have noticed the massive increase of girls. Always around 600 odd girls on in evening and only 60 being taken grp or pvt which is 10% of all girls that's really quite a small amount when you think about it.

    Like Katy said ,guys like fresh meat.Like I said,you are not the only.I went thru the same situation so many times that Im kinda used with how slow aw can be at times.I m on aw since 2008 but I dont think it ever been so frustrating like it is this month.But I think the older you get on a site the less busy you will be,especially if you cam every day/night.Its not you,its the site not having enough paying members and too many girls online at one time.All you can do is wait until it gets better.I think for now is just guys not having money to afford our shows and we cant do anything about it.Your friend is doing better,I have friends doing better on aw as well ,dont let that affect you.We are not identical,some have more luck,we cant be/do the same.Patience.Meantime you should think of investing in a better cam .I went from a C910 which is not bad at all to a C920 in summer and I can not tell what a big difference it made.Better photos,better videos and most important,better streaming.Guys like a good feed,a clear zoom and many times I`ve been told they like the wide screen.

    I'm new to AW and tbh if it wasn't for a few blokes that come into me religiously every day...I would be completely dead. I worked on AW about 2 years ago for a few months but I wasn't confident enough...so I know it can be busier. I'm blaming the fact that its Jan and everyone is skint after xmas. Most people get paid either this week or next so it should pick up. I hope you get busier

    I was quite lucky in the fact I got the Logitech cam really cheap which is why I bought it but I'll look into upgrading to a new Logitech defo.

    I have mine at 640x360...anything more than that and my FPS plays up, I don't know why though as I have an upload speed of up to 15mbps. Just to mention to folks too...don't put your max bitrate to 1.5Mbps unless you have high speed broadband. Using a cable connection helps too.

    Edit - just put it on 864x480 and so far it's holding ok!

    Yes the max bitrate you set depending on what connection you have.I set mine to 1 or 1.5 because I have my upload speed up to 30.
    For FPS mine is set to 30 all the time but if I use my C920 with no splitter then it goes down to 18-19 sometimes.Always stable when using splitter though.
