Q: Is it vital that I look stunningly attractive?

A: If you wish to do a duo show, then each performer must apply for their own solo account ensuring that you make it clear that you wish to perform with whoever else is applying.

Please ensure that if you are logged on as a solo that nobody else can even be seen in the shot as this is a breach of our legal requirements.

A: During the sign-up process you must provide your true name and contact details, and prove it by providing a scan of your state or government issued ID.

Q: Who will have access to the information I submit?
A: Your privacy is of the utmost importance to us. Under no circumstances will we sell or distribute any of your information to third parties.
Q: How often am I paid?
Our web cam models are paid every two weeks. For a payment to be processed you must have earned the minimum of $100 in that 2 week period, if you haven’t reached that the money will simply roll over to the next period. In practice we have found that models always do earn way over the minimum amount.
Q: How do I know how much I have earned?
A: Simple, you will have access to all your account details, including many in-depth reports such as how much time you have been online in each of the show types, and income breakdown by day, customer, etc etc. No information is hidden from you.
Q: What are the actual rates of pay?
A: Many sites and studios say they offer great rates of pay, or highly competitive rates, but never actually tell you what that rate is. We pride ourselves on being honest and open.
Our current pay rate is:
* You set your rate from $1.99 - $4.99 per minute in private chat
* You start off earning 30% of that rate but as you make more money your percentage increases. You could earn as much as 80% of the money earned.
* There are other ways to increase your income too, such as tips, bonuses, and even premium multi-user shows for models who are very popular.
Q: What times of day should I work?
A: This is a truly world-wide business. As you can imagine peak viewing times for this kind of material is evening and night times, however, it is always evening and night somewhere in the world. Most of the income generated comes from the USA, United Kingdom, Western Europe and Australia. So that means that there is always the chance to make money, no matter what time you log on.
Q: How much can I make?
A: That is entirely dependent on you! When you are logged on to the site you are part of the busiest and best broadcasting network, the visitors and money are there waiting to be had by you. If you are friendly, fun, sexy, flirtatious, you will start to earn very quickly. As the guests get to know you you will find that you can and will build up a loyal fan base. These repeat customers are what really drive up your earnings.
As a rough estimate, if you choose to work 3 hours a day 5 days a week, and manage to be in a private conversation for half the time you are on you would be making over $600 (US$) per week.
We have found that the average that new models earn is between $1000 and $2000 per week.
But as we say, it is all down to you.
Q: How do I make money?
A: There are several ways to earn money while broadcasting. When you login to broadcast from the free chat room (you are not paid while in this room), visitors will come into this room, where you will chat, flirt and tease them until someone decides to take you into a private room where they start paying per minute.
You will earn money while in the private 1-on-1 show with a customer. You will also be paid for Voyeur (customers who choose to watch a show but cannot actively participate) minutes, tips, bonuses, referral incentives, and Video On Demand (VOD). Guests can (and often do) choose to view your pre-recorded videos again and again. You are paid each time one is viewed so you will even earn money when you are not on-line!
Q: Is lighting important too?
A: Yes, just as important as the camera.
We suggest Halogen lights placed in front of you and behind the camera (lights placed behind you will cause your camera to focus on them making you appear dark) will provide the best lighting, allow your camera to focus on you more accurately, this can even make your skin appear flawless.
Q: What type of camera should I use?
A: You can use any, however, remember the better the quality, the more people will likely to take you into private. If your cam is poor quality why would a customer pay per minute to view it? But don’t let this put you off if you can’t afford a high quality camera. You will still be able to earn, so just save some of your new income and invest it in better technology to increase your own income. We recommend using a MiniDV camcorder connected via a FireWire (IEEE 1394) cable. Camcorders provide customers with high speed, clear video and are capable of zooming. If you must use a USB webcam, we recommend any of the Logitech QuickCam Pro webcams. Built-in notebook web cams are not recommended.
Q: So what is public (Free) chat, do I get paid for it?
A: You are not paid for time spent in public Free Chat while you are paid per minute of time spent in Private Chat. Public chat is free for all customers and gives them a chance to get to know you and what they can expect before they purchase time. Public chat is also a great way for you to get to know the customer base and entice them to purchase private time. You can tease customers while in public chat. No nudity is permitted in the public chat room. While in private, you can get to know the customer much more intimately.
Q: Do I have to advertise or do any marketing?
A: No all this is taken care of for you. The fantastic team of affiliates and the marketing department take care of all that. They provide the traffic, your only job is providing the entertainment. You are our model, not our advertising guru at all!
Q: Is there anything I must not do?
A: You will be presented with the basic broadcasting rules. It is imperative you stick to the rules. Breaches will result in fines being imposed, or possible closing of your account, without warning and forfeiting any pay owed.
Two rules we would like to emphasize to you now is that you must never ever disclose your personal details to a guest (and they will ask time and time again! Trust us!) Do not take down any email addresses either, because as soon as you email that person you have disclosed your email address and broken the rules. This rule is here to protect you and your safety (and of course the revenue for the site - but your safety should be your number one priority). Remember this is a job for you, not a dating service.
The second vital rule is that you should never be naked in Free Chat mode, that means you cannot show your genitalia or anus. Or wear see-through under ware to cover these parts. Penetrating yourself with a dildo is therefore also against the rules in free chat mode.
We can’t emphasize the importance of sticking to all the rules all the time. Your chat rooms are monitored by our staff, the site staff and regular visitors to the site who gladly report back. Don’t risk your money, job and safety!
Q: Do I have to do whatever I am asked by the customer?
A: No, never do anything that you are not comfortable with. However, do bear in mind that you will be working in the adult entertainment industry. People visit mainly for sexual gratification, therefore if you are not prepared to be completely nude in a private chat whilst engaging in solo sexual play then this is not the job for you. If you are asked to do something that you don’t like, makes you feel uncomfortable, is against the law, or against the broadcasting rules then politely explain the situation, and tell them how much fun they can have with you in other ways. It goes without saying that the more “interesting” your show the more money you are likely to make by having longer shows, more return visitors and rave reviews. So the inclusion of toys, role play or costumes for example could help, but is up to you.
Q: Who decides what hours I work?
A: You! Our suggestion is that you do choose hours that are regular, and use your model profile page to advertise those hours. New models will form their own fan-base much more quickly if visitors know when to find them online.
Q: How many hours do I have to work?
A: You are the boss, you decide! All we ask is that you do work at least ten hours per two-week pay period. That is only 5 hours a week, so very easy to achieve. If you can’t work that much then let us know, we will be happy bend this rule should you want some time off. |
