|

what I have noticed is that with ImLive and other sites paying lower in % they are trying to get everyone pushing to make money, I have noticed a lot of performers on the site are doing very little to bring in those private shows and might need a little push under thier ass.
Being loyal to a few webcam sites or just one can be rewarding in the long run it just depends on how serious you want to take it. Yes some do extremely well working for imlive and others don't but it just the nature of this business. |

updating a website is the easy part actually, its getting the traffic and payment system is the hard part.
minnieholly.com was a big learning mistake for me.
camgirlminnie.com I have redooing for the last few weeks it will be fantastic when its all ready to go. |

I think it's great that you do well as an indie cam girl Malaya I may want to do an interview with you in the not so far future for a site I'm currently designing about cam girls. It would be great to delve into what it takes to make it independently, besides being the "sexiest" I'm interested in the business side of it; marketing, etc.
I don't really have the desire to maintain a xxx site, so for me it would be a waste of time. I average around $20-60/hr on sites like ImLive and streamray though; so it's an easy way to stack a few hundred a day when my non-adult websites are not earning as much for me.
It's funny how what works for one person may not work for another. That's why I think it is great for us to give one another tips and info on what works for us. I just wanted to speak up on the fact that the percentage is not necessarily as important as the take home. I could get almost 100% (considering money spent on website costs and payment processors) doing an indie site, but 100% of nothing--which is what I would get without promoting it properly-- isn't paying my bills, lol. It's much more profitable for a girl like me--one who doesn't want to spend time promoting an indie cam girl site-- to just forget about percentage, log on, and stack a few on a major site whenever I need to.
Keep stacking ladies!

Dani,
Hi hunny! Yeahh you're right ..It dosen't work for everyone! what works for you may not work for me and being really hot does help . The biggest misconception about being a camgirl is that it is fast money. I've only been doing this since january and i make good money working from home and it's just not being an indy..im also on ImLive ..but most of my money is made being indy. It's funny how girls expect to make 6k a month and treat this like a hobby....You'll make nothing working just three hours a day. You have to put in at least 6 hours...I just started doing 8 hours a day .About having a site: ehh it's a good thing to have believe it or not. More exposure more money. I have a few tips for you dani..im me on yahoo . OOh and of course i'll love to do an interview for your site anytime just lemme know.

You're so right, hundreds in a couple of hours is a rare thing indeed!
Wow, I was looking through your site, it's very sexy and I'm surprised you have such a good business mind at only 19!
I'll hit you up on yahoo in a couple of weeks with a link to my site that will be launching at that time, so you can see if it's something you'd want to do a podcast interview for.
I also love that you (and Minnie too) stack cash both through the main sites as well as via your own platform. That's the sort of thinking that will keep girls in business for the long run and earning more.
You're probably on top of this already, but here is another platform for earning more and getting more backlinks and customers, since we're on the subject: http://www.clips4sale.com Maybe someone will find that site useful.

|
|
Chargebacks - aka/exploitment of models. Here's a small but valuable piece of insight; bank fraud professionals report that on any credit card purchase made on the internet or elsewhere for services the customer has no more than 65 days to requests a chargeback. So banks professionals stated the following:"if the customer comes to us 3 months after a purchase and wants a refund or claims fraud on a credit card purchase we don't even consider that, because it is the customer's responsability to report and acknowledge any account activity within the agreement time frame of 65 days as specified on their credit card agreement."
Makes sense right? ..So the next time your webcam site exploits you with a chargeback that's over 65 days old be aware that this is not legally possible.
You can report to the FTC any fradulent business practices you witnesses or experienced while working with sexchat site. FTC does not resolves problems you have with a site, but it will collect information and investigate sites:
""Before You Submit a Complaint
The Federal Trade Commission, the nation's consumer protection agency, collects complaints about companies, business practices, identity theft, and episodes of violence in the media.
Why: Your complaints can help us detect patterns of wrong-doing, and lead to investigations and prosecutions. The FTC enters all complaints it receives into Consumer Sentinel, a secure online database that is used by thousands of civil and criminal law enforcement authorities worldwide."" [FTC, 2009]
It's your right..US IT.
Stop the EXPLOITMENT OF MODELS

| ImLive sucks!!! worked there in 2008 and had a charge back every single week for months. I racked up about $600 in charge backs within 2 and 1\2 months of working there. Now does that seem shady or just ridiculous that they can't find another CC company that takes more precautions! Their customer service horrible too! beware. |

See, that's the thing. I see people say they hate ImLive but then when they really give it a try it can be a big money maker!
I get chargebacks too and I HATE it but the total money I make at ImLive blows away any other sites I've tried. They all have chargebacks. CamContacts is the only site I know of that covers them, but unfortunately there is very little traffic I find. I'm still on there sometimes but can't afford to spend hours with no shows.
The thing is, a lot of hosts will look at their chargebacks and sit there and focus on that and ignore the money they make per hour. You have to treat this like a business and your total profit is where you need to be focused, no matter what anyone else says.
I see sites that pay a higher percent and have tried them out, but the problem is 50 or even 80% of zero is still ZERO and I can not pay my bills with that.
I've yet to see a site with as much reliable steady traffic as ImLIve. Plus, you can go live with no free live chat. I can't stand the free video sites where they just sit and beg and never buy a show, so that is a big bonus for me. |
