    Default im new, ~PLEASE HELP~ !

    So i've been really really tight on money lately and t;s stressing me out like crazy. I've had two friends who have both been able to get themselves out of bad financial situations quite quickly by doing it through webcam modeling. I have been looking into it and I am really starting to consider starting for a few months until I can be on my feet again. Basically the point of this is I would REALLY appreciate some help/tips on getting started. I have no idea what website is best , what's the best way to keep myself as anonymous as possible , how to make the best money , and how making the money even works. I sound like a moron and i'm sorry , i'm really clueless when it comes to this kind of stuff but I have given it legitimate thought and it's definitely the best option for me right now. Im 21 years old and I guess i'd say im decently attractive? Im pretty confident and something like this doesn't seem like it would be hard for me. At the same time though i have NO experience whatsoever. I've never been a dancer or have done and camming before so I am definitely kind of clueless. Anyone who has tips and information for me it would be greatly appreciated

    Read everything on here.
    At least read the threads on lighting and the main threads of which site you are going to use. READ THE AVOID STUDIO THREAD IF YOU READ NOTHING ELSE https://www.stripperweb.com/forum/sh...avoid-studios)

    Edit not every single studio is completely evil, only 99.9999%. Ive heard great things about this one https://www.stripperweb.com/forum/sh...tantPay-Thread
    It is run by a girl on here and they pay daily, if you are in a tight financial bind it might help

    Best tip I can give, start is reading a few of the stickies and after that read as many threads in camming connection as you can. Taking a day or two to read the info will help greatly.

    Oh one more thing
    You say you have a couple friends who cam...as long as they arent in studios maybe have them mentor you... I know cams.com has a model refferal (I think streamate does and some other sites do too.) If you sign up under their link theyll make a money off you (doesnt come out of your cut) so they will have a huge incentive in making sure you know everything you need to know and are as successful as you can be

    I have some time so I'll condense as much as you need to know to start off on the right foot:

    Go to the top sites like streamate.com and myfreecams.com and watch the top models to get a feel of how the cam sites work. At this time the top token sites are myfreecams.com and chaturbate.com. The top private based sites are streamate.com, livejasmin.com, cams.com, imlive.com and adultweb.com.

    I find that most younger models like to start out with myfreecams.com however, if you are a total newb I recommend streamate.com but it is really up to you. Token sites are all about hustling for tips for things like flashing, towards a goal of some kind eg. naked, whereas private sites are all about hustling to get taken private or exclusive so you make money per minute. You set the price per minute, I recommend at least $5.99 because you make only 35%. MFC (myfreecams), your cut is 60%. In general, MFC has better earning potential but it's a roller coaster and not consistent meaning some days you'll bank and other days you'll make nothing whereas Streamate is more consistent in earnings.

    Pick a good model name with a first name and a last name rather than something like CutiePie777. It's just easier down the road with marketing eg. Twitter, yourdomain.com website etc.--should you decide to do more marketing.

    Write down the basics of your persona eg. where she lives, what she does for fun, what she likes sexually, what she is willing to do/not do etc.

    Don't sign up with a bad studio. As far as I know the only good studio is BoleynModels.com and you can sign up directly through them for Streamate and MyFreeCams so you can get daily pay. You can contact Katy directly http://boleynmodels.com/contact-us/ and let her know you found her through Stripperweb so that you get the same commissions as we do. She can also help you get off on the right foot.

    Read everything you can on this forum. The wealth of knowledge here is priceless and will only help you earn more.

    You need a good webcam like the Logitech C920 and decent computer with at least an i5 processor. You also need good quality toys if you're going to do penetration shows. Medical grade silicone like those made by Tantus, Vixen and lelo are the best. If you can't afford those yet, buy glass toys. Read up on the threads about toy safety because you don't want to get sick from poor toy hygiene and using bad toys. You will need some cute/sexy outfits. Once you have your cam room set up, you'll need some good lighting that is flattering.

    Read the threads on the sites you want to cam to find the best way to hustle.

    You'll have a lot of support here and on other forums like Amber Cutie and WeCamGirls. AmberCutie is more geared towards the younger MFC girls whereas over here we're older and seem to favor Streamate, Cams and AdultWeb. WeCamGirls is an excellent resource for reviews of cam sites by cam girls and more intimate because it's a smaller forum.

    When it comes to earning a lot of money it really depends on how committed you are to succeeding. Be positive, confident and have a good work ethic, but don't burn yourself out. Don't put up with the assholes, freeloaders and misogynists because you have the power to direct who gets to interact with you and there are plenty of men out there so banning them is just a way to filter out the garbage.

    I ditto everything that the previous ladies have said. When I was brand new model, I did nothing except read everything on this site and it saved me from getting scammed, and increased my earning off the bat.

    You also asked how to stay as anonymous as possible... You can wear a wig if you want, glasses if you don't normally, etc. but PLEASE understand that nothing is completely anonymous. Once you start doing this, it will be all over the internet. There are so many people that come on here and ask for advice not realizing the effect it will have on everything you do in the future. You said that you've thoroughly thought this through so I'm sure you've taken this into consideration.. but wanted to point it out again just incase

    Either way, these forums are definitely the way to go. Tons of support and information at your fingertips!!

    How come you didn't ask your two friends that are doing it ?

    You will pretty much find all your answers on here if you do some searches and even searching the internet in general.

    There are years and years worth of information here so searching the site is always best to start first.

    I helped out several people I know when they started camming. Don't be afraid to ask them questions too. Having a physical mentor is awesome!
