Camgirl Q&A: Episode 1: DreamL0ver

 
Welcome to the Camgirl Q&A Series where we take an inside look into the world of camming from the people who know it best – the girls themselves! It’s always fun to see the different perspectives and experiences that come with camming, since each journey is so individual. If you have any question suggestions, share them in the comments below!
 
Welcome, DreamL0ver! Find all of her social & cam links here.

 

Q: What is your preferred cam site/subscription site?

A: Chaturbate has been my preferred website for camming. They provide a huge amount of traffic and it’s a great place to start if you don’t have a large following, because you don’t have to worry about bringing your own traffic with you.

Q: How long have you been camming?

A: I’ve been camming for 3 years in December.

Q: What has surprised you the MOST about camming?

A: What surprised me the most about camming is the love and acceptance within the community. The sex-worker community is so open, accepting, caring and loving. Everyone kind of looks out for each other, even if you don’t really know each other!

Q: How open are you about your camming with others?

A: I’m so lucky that I can very open with my friends and family that I cam full time for a living. Most of them have been very accepting and are curious about it, but not in like a nosey kind way, in a general caring kind of way. I have yet to have anyone in my personal life judge me negatively for choosing to do this.

Q: Is there anything that helped you become more comfortable camming?

A: Being in my own bedroom is what kept me in my comfort zone when I first started camming and remembering that I could shut down at any time if I felt uncomfortable. Being able to ban people helps too. I played my favorite music that I quickly started dancing to to keep myself busy during the slower times, and one of my roommates is my moderator, so I know I’m always in good hands.

Q: What item under $50 is a camming “game changer”?

A: LED Light Bars!! You don’t need fancy photography lighting! I bought two cheap 5000k daylight led light strips from a hardware store and they light up my room perfectly. They have served me well from 720hd all the way to 4K!

Q: Are you saving up for anything special right now?

A: I’m not currently saving for anything special thanks to the pandemic, however I always make sure to save as much as I can because you never know when traffic slows down or when you want to take time away for a little vacation. (So very true! Saving is so important when you have income that can be unstable – See my post on how to manage your money as a camgirl).

Q: How different is your “cam persona” to the real you?

A: My cam persona vs the real me are only slightly different. My personality generally remains the same, however I do filter or re-word things I would normally put very bluntly when somebody starts getting on my nerves — in my room we say “This isn’t Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory, we don’t sugar coat shit here!” — so let’s just say my “customer service voice” has to kick in once in a while haha.

Q: What has been your most memorable camming moment?

A: My most memorable moment camming so far had to be my birthday for 2020. The turn out was wild and we did some pretty wicked things that night!

Q: What advice would you give to someone wanting to start camming?

A: My best advice when first starting is:

  • SAVE as much money as you can, esp. if you don’t have a second source of income. If you don’t have something to fall back on, the slow times can financially make or break you.
  • Don’t expect to get rich quick, but keep at it and enjoy what you do and eventually the viewers will come to you.
  • Be yourself, they will fall in love with who you are. Then you’ll have it made!
  • Also, start simple — you don’t need to go broke with your very first set of equipment (i.e camera and computer), anything running 720 will be more than enough for you to start out with. Give it a year or so, if you’re still sticking it out and climbing the ranks, then consider starting to re-invest your money back into new equipment. (Very wise! I agree with that as well. Don’t get too overwhelmed buying the “best” equipment right off the bat – start small. Check out my post on starting camming on a limited budget).

How to Make More Money on OnlyFans: Camgirl Advice & Success Tips!

CamgirlMFC 8 Comments

onlyfans review
 

So you’ve created an OnlyFans account, now what? How do you succeed on OnlyFans and use this platform to its full potential? (And make a ton of money, of course!)

Let’s Review Some Important OnlyFans Tips:

 

1. Set the *right* subscription price

Although it might be tempting to set your monthly price as high as possible (OnlyFans’ current limit is $49.99/month), my advice is to balance that with what your fans would reasonably afford to pay. You’ll get more followers at a lower price (say, $9.99 or 14.99) and they’ll be more willing to pay for the Pay-Per-View messages and will end up spending ore on you overall. At the same time, don’t shortchange yourself and don’t set your subscription price too low where you might get people expecting too much for too little. It’s all about balance and also knowing your audience! If you’re into Findom, you may very well be able to set a high monthly price.

2. Promote your OnlyFans link online + Advertise your content!

Get creative with this! Definitely promote on Twitter and Instagram, if you’ve got it, as well as promoting your link during your cam shows, if you stream online. You can also share your link on TikTok, Reddit, or your official website/blog. The more places you can showcase your OF link – the better! Of course, don’t go completely overboard and spam viewers with it. Having your link in your twitter bio or even your Twitter name is a great promotion idea. Additionally, make sure your followers know what kind of content they’re signing up for by posting short clips, pics, and polls on your social media.

3. Talk to your fans

The road to a successful camming career and beyond is consistency and communication, so don’t neglect this crucial part! Make a posting schedule and try to stick to it, as well as reply to comments and DMs, which will lead to greater loyalty and subscription renewals. There’s nothing worse than losing subscribers because you simply didn’t post enough content. It might be a good idea to shoot some videos and photo sets in advance, so that you can slowly release them over the course of the month.

4. Try Tiered PPVs (Pay-Per-View Messages)

PPVs are a great way to create stronger connections and make members feel like they’re getting something really exclusive and special to them. You can set different prices (say, $1-3, or $10+) for their messages to unlock. Messages can be anything – photos, videos, or text posts! You can really use your imagination here and create some special photosets, videos or a sexy chat that would make members want to see it. This is a great way of making extra money on OnlyFans!

5. Get to know your audience

You can use your intuition or see what other camgirls are posting, but a really useful way to really find out what YOUR fans want is by making polls! Knowing your audience is the KEY to a successful OnlyFans account! You can figure out what kind of content members want to see next and track which of your posts were successful with the help of the analytics features on OnlyFans. For your PPVs, you can track how many messages have been opened, read, and which prices were the most profitable, so you can learn and make more informed decisions for your future posts.

onlyfans tips

6. Do promotional campaigns throughout the year

Sales are a great way to draw new people in or engage your current followers by making them feel they’re getting a bargain. Everyone loves a bargain, and promotions create excitement for members. There is always an excuse to do a promotional campaign, be it Christmas, Halloween, Valentine’s day, your birthday – whatever you can think of!

7. Consider making your account free – At least for a while!

An alternate strategy to consider is making your OnlyFans account free! This can allow for a higher following as subscribers don’t have to commit to paying a monthly subscription fee. Free accounts can use the pay-per-view post feature, which allows you to monetise individual posts, in addition to pay-per-view messages and tips. Although you don’t have the predictability of subscription income, this strategy can be lucrative and lead to wider brand recognition.

 

💰 If you don’t have an account yet, GET ONE NOW and start making more money than you ever thought possible! 💰

Making Money (and Keeping Sane) While Self-Isolating

CamgirlMFC Leave a comment

camming work from home

Making Money in the Time of Coronavirus

These are pretty uncertain times and it can be a struggle for camgirls, and the world at large, to keep the motivation going. It’s easy to slip into depression and bouts of anxiety and panic with everything that’s going on with this coronavirus pandemic, but keeping a daily schedule and keeping yourself busy with work is a great solution to the problem we’re all facing.

Luckily, the adult industry does not seem to be affected as much as other industries, and some might say it is even *thriving* despite the global pandemic. There are more people at home and self-isolating, and so they are looking for social contact and entertainment/enjoyment from cam sites and subscription platforms, like OnlyFans. Quarantine or not, there will always be a demand for porn and other adult services, so working as a webcam model in these times is actually quite advantageous.

Where to Start

So, you need to make money at home and you don’t know where to start? Here is a list of the best resources for making money while in quarantine:

  1. Best Camsites to Start on (click to read more!): My recommendation would be to start with the industry’s “Gold standard” – Chaturbate – and then try out other sites to see how they compare. Check out my Beginners Guide for Webcam Models.
  2. Adult-Friendly Snapchat Alternatives (click to read more!): OnlyFans is killing the game right now! Girls are making thousands of dollars a month from posting photos, vids, and DMing their followers. Check out my posts on How to Get Started on OnlyFans and How to Keep Increasing your Income!
  3. Passive Income Sources for Camgirls (click to read more!) – Sometimes you just want to take a break and not stream at all. When you’ve got passive income sources set up, you can make money while you sleep. I recommend checking out camming affiliate programs, as the earnings definitely add up over time! One of the best programs in the industry is the Chaturbate Affiliate Program (you don’t eve need to be a model to sign up and make $$$)

Staying Sane

Making money is great, but how on earth do you stay sane during times like these?

While playing videogames all day is a-ok, even that will become boring after a while, and so a great way to keep yourself mentally on track is…

  • Structure – Try to wake up at the same time each day and not sleep in too much, keep your meal times pretty structured as well, as well as your bedtime.
  • Some type of exercise – Walking around the block or to a neighborhood park, a beach or a non-crowded hiking trail (whatever is available!)
  • Get some sun every day! ☀️ Great mood booster!
  • Get creative. Do something with your hands (crochet, macrame, bead work, drawing, painting, calligraphy, pottery, gardening) The options are endless.
  • Set small goals to achieve each day – This will give your brain and body added dopamine boosts throughout the day!
  • Keep in touch with people who you care about and who care about you. It can be anyone, and doesn’t have to be family, if they’re not supportive or are negative.
  • “This too shall pass”. Give yourself positive affirmations that you will get through this.

⋆ How to Get Started on OnlyFans: Make $4,000+ a Month!

CamgirlMFC 8 Comments

OnlyFans review camgirl

OnlyFans is becoming a VERY lucrative way of making passive income for camgirls without ever having to do live camming! Girls are reporting that they are making $1,000+ a week simply by uploading pics, streaming videos, and messaging their fans. It’s like a Snapchat and a fanclub platform in one! How much you can make on OnlyFans depends on how many members sign up to your account and pay your monthly subscription price.

As an example: To get to the Top 1% earners on OnlyFans you need approximately 725 fans with a subscription price of $9.99!

So, how do you start? It’s easy and almost instant! Just follow the steps below:

 

1. CREATE YOUR ONLYFANS ACCOUNT

It’s 100% free to create an account and it can be done in minutes! OnlyFans doesn’t require you to sign any contract and you will receive 80% of all the money that your subscribers pay for your content! That is an incredible earning percentage! OnlyFans provides a very high quality platform that is constantly improving and adding new functions to make you earn even more. Combined with great customer service and a straightforward user interface, it’s an unbeatable way to make semi-passive income as a camgirl!

2. SETTING YOUR SUBSCRIPTION RATE

What makes OnlyFans so lucrative is the combination of your subscriber numbers and your subscription rate. You decide what you want to charge members to see your content. It can range from Free to $49.99/month. Imagine how much you can earn with having your subscription on the high end of the range! However, most girls charge about $9.99/month and it seems most customers/fans prefer prices in this range. You have to be realistic about it and make the membership price affordable. You can still make a lot of money for setting a ‘low’ subscription price amount and therefore attracting many more subscribers.

 

3. PROMOTE YOUR ONLYFANS PROFILE

Now that you have your account, it’s time to figure out what to post on it and how to promote it! Posting is easy – sexy pics and videos that you post *consistently* that also seem personal is what will make your members stick around and maybe even tip you extra!

The most effective way to promote your OnlyFans account is on your existing social media platforms (Twitter, Instagram, etc) as well as on a personal blog, if you have one. You can also promote it on cam, but be careful, some sites do not allow outside promotion. The more your promote – the more subscribers you’ll get, and will be well on your way to earning a 4-figure income each month. Many camgirls have even quit live camming in favor of OnlyFans because of how much easier it is to make money!

 

4. RETAINING YOUR FANS & MAKING EVEN MORE MONEY

Ultimately, fans want your content, so give your fans what they want! Personal messages are key, in my opinion, because they create feelings of intimacy. You can send out free or locked messages (PPV messages) that members would pay for. Being consistent in your posting (say, a few times a day) in addition to creating a varied mix of content (eg. different photosets, videos, polls, personal posts) will keep members engaged and wanting more. Here is a post with some specific tips on how to succeed on OnlyFans! You can even succeed as a non-nude model if you have a big enough fan base built up.

 

5. ONLYFANS AFFILIATE PROGRAM

Don’t forget to make use of OnlyFans’ generous Referral Program. Once you create an account, you will be given you unique referral link that you can use to recruit other models to join. Once they sign up and start earning you will make 5% of their total earnings for LIFE!  That’s a pretty sweet deal and is 100% passive.

This should serve as added motivation 😉

OnlyFans top earners

Yes, earnings like this are possible! (But rare! This camgirl is in the Top 0.59% of all creators)

The earning potential on OnlyFans is huge and has no limit. The only limit is the number of subscribers you have and what they will pay for your content. So, make yourself stand out and get started!

Here are some other ways to make passive income as a camgirl.

How to Make Money Fast: Beginner Camgirl Edition

CamgirlMFC Leave a comment

Let’s say that you need to make a few hundred dollars NOW (or soon) – how do you go about it and what is the quickest way to do it? We are assuming that you have no prior camming experience.

Here is my personal plan of how to do it:

Join 2 (or more) cam sites at the same time. I would recommend not overextending yourself by joining too many at once, but 2 sites would be perfect, so that you can flip back between the two. It will take a few days to get approved, as you need to provide ID for verification, but once you do, you’re all set.

Look through my List of the Top Cam Sites here.

 

Cam Site #1: MyFreeCams.

 

MFC is more geared toward “hangout” atmosphere and doesn’t focus AS much on cam shows. This is a great site to start up on, to get yourself more comfortable with nudity and what it feels like to stream. You will be given a “New Model” label, which will get you more exposure on the site and an opportunity for more tips. Members love new models, but be aware that some do try to take advantage of the inexperience of new girls. Read by beginners post on how to get started on MFC – I would recommend streaming for a few hours at a time to see how well it goes.

 

Cam Site #2: Chaturbate

best camsite chaturbate

Having some experience on MFC will make you more comfortable to stream on Chaturbate, which operates a similar way with private and public shows, but is more sexual than MFC. Generally, the more nudity/sexuality you have on cam, the more viewers you get, and the higher you show up on the list of models. If you’re not comfortable yet with a full-blown cam show, you can do a striptease for tokens and do sexy dances or spanks. Check out my post on how to get started on CB!

If you stream twice in the same day, you should easily make your first $100. Being a new model on MFC will give you an automatic boost, and CB will expose you to more tippers, as it has the largest traffic out of all cam sites.

What else should you do to take that money FAST?

A lot of members love videos, and will often ask for them. If you don’t have any prerecorded videos (which you can do while you wait for your verification/approval), you can still sell them on cam and record them within the week. In my experience, members don’t expect professional quality from videos, in fact, the amateur angle is what is more attractive. You can check out my post about making vids here. 

manyvids affiliate

Once you have a video or two, or some pics, it’s a really good idea to join ManyVids to sell them! It’s the #1 video selling platform. This way you get even more exposure from more members. 

At this time, join Twitter, where you can promote your videos and the times you’re on cam.

Alternate Way:

What if you don’t want to be going on cam and interacting with members in real time and doing privates, but still want to make money? A GREAT new option is OnlyFans – it’s like an adult-based version of Snapchat. Members sign up to see your photos and short videos and you get money off of their memberships and any extra tips they send! This is becoming a very popular option for camgirls to make extra money on top of camming, or even replace camming completely! You can definitely make a few thousand $ a month on OnlyFans once you accumulate a large enough membership base.
