Cam girl sites started being developed almost as soon as the world wide web was developed. As soon as the idea of a camera being online was discovered by the “coffee pot webcam” team, and then Jenni started what today we would call a voyeur house cam, immediately people realized this was a wave of the future and started registering domains for live sex cams.

Many of the domains have changed hands and changed style over the years, but of the ones that are still going a few are over 20 years old. Or to put it another way, many of the cam girls broadcasting today were not even born when the websites they are broadcasting on were first registered!

Oldest Cam Girl Sites by date of registration

As the list of adult cam sites grows there has been an increasing number of them that have died out. I even have a “defunct cam sites” section to remember them if you are interested.

But cam girl sites will always be popular and while new camgirl sites come online regularly the few adult webcam sites that are still around are there for a reason. The people who know how to run sex cam sites and make them work and perfected their formulas.

That doesn’t mean that new things are not possible, indeed they are and when MFC invented tipping, and then Chaturbate perfected it, all the cam girls thought the whole world was going to change.

But instead what changed is that the definition of “camgirl site” changed and how when people look for webcam sex sites know how to run sex cam sites they are looking for something different. More interaction, more for free, more hot girls, better video and audio.

Let’s see what the next 25 years bring! Do you have any predictions? Let me know in the comments!
