If one were to take a break from searching through job adverts on line, and instead searched for, 'pornography,' on Google, one would be inundated with websites devoted to sex in all its forms. One can watch it, book an appointment with a man/woman/miscellaneous offering to have it with you in your own home, or you can experience an interactive hybrid of both; you can watch the man/woman/miscellaneous on their webcam streamed live to your computer, and if you pay for a private one on one show, you can speak to them, ask them questions, and even request that they do... something - almost anything, all for your enjoyment.
These cam sites have surged in popularity recently due to the relative ease, comfort and anonymity offered to both the cam performer and client, and because of how much money a performer can make. I spoke to the staff of CamGirlSpot.com, a female performer only cam site, to find out how it can be done.
Can anyone do this to make money?
Yes.
Is there anyone you don't want?
No.
How much money, on average, can a new performer make?
This really depends. Some models work in their spare time, and for some this is a full time job. Models typically make between $2-$5 per minute, so from there it is simple maths.
Does the number of viewers equal money?
Absolutely. It is all about driving traffic to a models profile page. We try to help them by displaying models who are online more, higher up in the list. Ultimately it's about conversion: a certain percentage of viewers will convert to customers, so the higher the viewers, the higher sales are.
What do I need to look like to be a cam performer? What look receives the most viewers?
There really is no look, as different customers prefer different things. For customers, this service is an escape from reality into fantasy, and everyone's fantasy is different. The best advice is for girls to focus on a niche they are comfortable with and concentrate on that.
What can I do on can to receive the most number of viewers? Do you have any tips to pull in hits?
Staying online more, having customers leave positive reviews, sign up at as many directory sites as possible, will all increase traffic.
Would you recommend this to anyone, and why?
Anyone with dedication and hard work ethic will be successful, this, just like anything else is a business and requires the same amount of work as any other business, we just have more fun doing it.
What can I do to stay marginally anonymous, so no one would recognize me on the street?
Protecting your identity is important. Never use your real name in any profiles. Never let customers pay you directly, always use an intermediary to help mask your identity. Never give out your personal email address, phone numbers, etc. At the end of the day there is a chance you will be recognized, for most it happens sooner or later. Just be conscious of that and ensure you are OK with that happening before you become a cam performer.
