Let us share our experiences on how you can earn a lot of  money as a webcam model. These proven methods and worth considering, our top earning webcam models earning 3000 USD / two weeks are using the same methods to be successful. Remember that our site is not all about sex or nudity. You can be very sexy and never even remove your clothes while you earn money with us!

Always be kind and friendly with users, even in freechat. Try to interact as much as possible, as a webcam model you need to smile, have fun, enjoy the work – viewers are not here to see sad and bored girls. Don’t make users wait once they are in private, treat them like kings and they will return to you. Try to create a group of regular viewers and keep in touch with them by using our email system. Send them jokes, funny movies, or pictures of yourself and don’t ask them all the time to go private, they surely will if they think so. If visitors have any special wishes and even want more from you then you first planned, just adapt your price, and choose one that you think is more convenient for you.

 

Make your room attractive

Use decoration to make your live cam picture visually more enjoyable. Curtains, pictures on the wall, mascots etc make your room more attractive and you will have more visitors.

Please mind the followings before you create your workplace:

  • Lighting
    Avoid natural lighting so do not create your workplace close to the window. Natural light will make your cam picture quality bad. Use lamps, neon light to light your room, also mind that light is really important, dark rooms where the models cannot be seen well will not be enjoyable for visitors and you will not be interesting for them.
  • Proper equipment
    Be sure to use proper equipments(webcam or camcorder, microphone, high-speed internet access). Broadcast a high quality live stream with crisp and clear picture. Older webcams might be out of date, use a newer one or buy a digital cam instead! Users do look for quality, blurry images and dark rooms will not attract them.

We posted some great room decoration examples from our models, check them under the EXAMPLES OF LIVE CAMERA PICTURES  menu!

 

Be online, be accessible

As a webcam model you should be online at least 5-6 hours a day and at least 5 days a week to earn serious amount of money. Chat hosts working regular hours usually have more returning members and more private shows. If you work by a schedule, users will know the exact time to catch you online. TIP: Members who marked you as favorite will get an e-mail notification when you go online.

Mind what you do while you are online

Remember that when you are online you are broadcasting your live camera picture on the internet, several users will be watching your moves so please try to avoid doing things that members may find uninteresting or boring. If they see you are biting your nails, eating, drinking, telephoning then they will leave your room and look for other webcam models.

Be different and unique

It is worth learning from others, have a look at the succesful chat hosts what make them successful. Although we rather recommend you to become different from the others, be unique, be a model like noone else. Members are looking for models who do not fall into a routine, who are special and give something plus than the others. Be creative, let the members know about all your talents and values, make plans always what you will do tomorrow when you come online again.

Variety is important when you are online, changing of your appearance will attract members’ attention better and they surely will be interested to see you again from time to time. Some members like girls in tight jeans for example while some of them prefer women with stockings, lingerie, … Take usually new pictures of yourself with different make-up, dress, hair style and background and upload them to your gellery, variety will make you a special and unique webcam model!

Never say ‘NO’ to members

Even if there are things you would not do in private chat do not reply with ‘no’ to members. It may sound a bit weird but it works, there are tons of tips / methods how you can express ‘maybe’ (even if you would say NO) and if the user likes you then you will see he will take you to payed chat.

Answers like ‘ I can try it for you‘ will make feel members they are special as you would try to do it for them and they will not get angry if finally you don’ t do their request perfectly. If you find a right way to say YES then members will be satisfied and will appreciate that you tried it for them.

Make content

Be sure to have a well-detailed model bio page, add as much information about yourself as you can (likes, dislikes, hobbies, schedule, features and so on), make more photos for your albums and create profile videos. These information are also available for members if you are offline.

Keep in touch

Keep continuous contact with members, it is worth sending them messages  every day even if you are not online, they surely will feel your care and they will be grateful. Members prefer those chat hosts who are different from the others and like to to know the real personality of the webcam models. Successful chat hosts usually send the members images from their pirvate life, links of their favourite musics, own poems and so on. These offline activites do not make much effort for you but the perfect way of long-term relationships! Remember that loyal and returning members will mean most of your income!

Be always visible in the cam

If you are a webcam model you never should leave the camera empty. If you have to go to the toilet or want to take a break then rather go offline from the site, your guests have chosen to click on you, if  they open your chatroom and they see an empty room then they will not come back,  you’ve lost them!  Prepare some drink close to your bed, if you are thirsty then you can easily have some water, do your best to look always fresh, if users feel you are not in a good mood then they will look for an other chat host!

Take notes

As an online chat host you will talk with a lot of viewers. As it is impossible to memorize all of the details you knew about them we advise you to take notes about each member you talk to. Keep track of the most important details about members (name, age, location, birthday, email address, etc.). If they come by your chatroom the next time, just look for the membername and all information you noted about him will be in front of you. They will appreciate if you remember them as they will feel they are special for you and you do not consider them like the average viewers!

Respond to members

It is the chat host ‘s task to keep continuous conversations in her room. If the webcam model does not reply to visitors’ questions then they will leave the room and look for a talkative model. Silent chat hosts will not have private shows so mind to always respond to members and guests, do not let your chatroom die!

Smile!

Smiling is the best way to attract member’s attention, flirt with your eyes, always always at the camera! Watching your monitor while you chat with someone makes you look like you don’t care with the member. Bored, annoyed webcam girls may ruin their whole adult webcam model career, users will remember that you are often in a bad mood and they will not visit your room in the future!

Look at the camera

Put your cam/webcam close to the screen. When you type or pay attention to a visitor then try to look in the camera too, viewers like to feel that you are looking at them, they want to feel special. Just like the real world, when you get eye contact you feel a connection with the person. It is a common mistake among webcam models that they continuously scare at their screen and do not look into the camera at all, remember that when you look at the cam you look into a lot of members’ eyes in the same time!

Chat with guests

A lot of chat hosts consider guests as beggars who just want to see some free show while they do not have money at all. Please forget it!  All our members started out as a guests, chances are that some of them will become your fan and returning customer. If a webcam model converts a guest into a paying member then the model can rely on the member’s appreciation, if you as a chat host show him first the pleasures of private shows then he surely will return to you in the future!

Sometime less is more

Try to avoid working on a massive number of websites at the same time! Your internet connection and computer power will probably not handle that much anyway. You will soon find out that paying attention to 1 or 2 sites means more money and less stress for you.

It is our common to have more returning and satisfied members but for this we need your cooperation too. Please consider our advices above and we guarantee you will be successful in this business!
