Okay, the thing that wannabe cam girls always ask me is, “How much do
webcam models make?” That’s not the easiest question to answer, simply
because it entirely depends on your looks, your personality, and the cam
site you choose to do your camming on. I’ve been camming mostly at
Streamate, but I also used to cam a lot at Chaturbate, and still do some
group sessions over there with some model friends of mine.
At
Streamate, a pretty model can do very well financially, and I know
girls there who make six figure incomes per year. Now, it helps to be
good at private shows, because Streamate doesn’t allow public nudity or
explicit shows. If a member wants to see you naked or have you do
something wild and crazy, he needs to first take you private. I happen
to like this because I’ve never been good at showing all my naughty bits
to just anybody. I like the connection that you can form with the guy
who takes you private, and it’s much more intimate.
Now, some cam
girls hate privates because they think they can make far more money in
public shows sticking God knows what up their various orifices, and
that’s totally cool. Won’t judge it. If that’s the kind of camming
strategy you want to use, then you should probably decide to cam at
My Free Cams or Chaturbate. They’ve got lots of traffic, and they
allow you to get crazy in public. Chaturbate even makes it super easy to
manage private shows by allowing use to use apps and bots that can
essentially manage your room for you while you play. Token goals, room
topics, you name it. Very convenient.
You can make a ton of money
at My Free Cams if you’re hot and you build up some regulars early on,
but you really need to start strong. Cam models who don’t get tipped
much from the very beginning of their career on the site usually get
pushed down the main page listings and end up not doing so well.
Chaturbate earnings
can be pretty good, especially if you do camming sessions with multiple
other camgirls, like I do. That type of thing will fill your room like
crazy, and then all you have to do is setup a tip menu filled with
various acts you’ll perform on each other for the right price. The
income from just one of these sessions can be really good.
If you
don’t like the idea of camming at a particular cam site, you can always
just use Snapchat to build up a following of fans and sell Skype shows
directly to those viewers. Skype cam shows are really popular right now,
so a camgirl can usually do really well with this strategy. Earnings
from these types of shows are usually less than you would make on a cam
site, but they’re so in demand that it usually balances out quite well.
Soon I’m going to talk more about how to use
Snapchat to market stuff like videos, panties, and more, so get ready for that!
