I want to be a camgirl, now what?

First of all, you have to understand that there are two site concepts, so to speak. You have what is called the “Premium” camsite and the “Freemium” camsite. It is not that one is better than the other and no, there is no “best” camsite. Some work for one, some work for the other.

Freemium or Premium

The difference between a Freemium and Premium camsite in general is that a Freemium site works with tipping tokens, i.e. you perform for a lot of people for “free” and you get tips from the people in the camroom. A Premium camsite, generally doesn’t allow nakedness in the open free chat, but you can take somebody private and then they pay per minute or per session.

The Big camsites

When you start as a new model, I think it is a bit better to pick one of the big camsites. They are more reliable, pay on time and a lot of them have extra promo that you can get for being the “new model” on the site.

Here is a list of sites that have proven themselves, however this does not mean that the other sites, that are not on this short list are bad:

• Cam4 (freemium)
• Chaturbate (freemium)
• MyFreeCams (freemium)
• Stripchat (freemium)
• Flirt4free (premium)
• ImLive (premium)
• LiveJasmin (premium)
• Streamate (premium)
• XLoveCam / Sex.cam (premium)
• Xmodels / xCams.com (premium)

It might be even better to sign up for at least two (maybe one premium and one freemium) to get an idea of the site. When you apply, also take a look at other models on the site that are working, so you can get a better idea of how they work. You will also get a better impression of the site.

Percentages, the higher the better?

Some sites pay you 30 percent, some pay you 80 percent. However, don’t focus solely on the percentage. Sites that offer a lower percentage often have better traffic (i.e. more customers coming your way). When you get 80 percent but no customers, you still have nothing.

That said, freemium sites usually have a higher payout percentage, but your income might vary more than on a premium site. But, when you hit big on a freemium site, the sky is the limit since you won’t have the “set” rates per minute you will find on a premium site.

You can use the Browse Camsites tool to compare different camsites.
