I want to be a camgirl, now what?

Who will you be?

Before you create your profile, you should think of a name and your cam persona. By picking a name take into consideration that BeckyBlueEyes better sticks than Becky1234. You will have to know of course if the name is not in use yet (not only the site you want to work from, but also other sites to avoid confusion) and if you can use it on social media accounts. Twitter is still a must and there are a lot of sites that you can use to sell subscriptions. We have a cool quick tool that can help you, but it doesn’t cover all sites that are out there, but it will help you a lot.

While being yourself is often touted as key to success on camming sites, it's also important to develop a unique aspect that sets you apart from other models. This could be as simple as wearing a signature item of clothing or highlighting a unique feature like a piercing or tattoo. Your cam personality should differ slightly from your real-life persona and be consistent, to help retain regulars. Consider factors like style, speech, affectations, and camera angles that flatter you best to create a camgirl persona that's an extension of yourself. Camming is a chance to showcase a different side of you, whether it be sexy, flirty, or edgy, so don't be afraid to experiment and have fun with it.

Basic camsite profile bio

The info on your camsite profile is important. It will be your showpiece, your connection to your customers. Some camsites allow you to write down a lot of information, add links to your social media or theme your profile page and some don’t.

You start your camsite bio by adding basic information, like your appearance, general info about you (for example, gender, sexual orientation, language etc.), videos and or pictures and an about me written in text. Think careful about what you write and how you write it. When customers do searches your profile might (or might not) pop up. So choose your “key words” with care.

Creating your camsite profile

On most camsites the layout of the profiles are all the same and matched accordingly with the camsite. There are however sites that are a lot more adjustable. Chaturbate, MyFreeCams and Cam4 for example, have great flexibility and you can even code your own profile page in HTML and CSS. This gives your page a unique feeling and helps you stand out. Coding however is not for everyone, but luckily there are guys who do a really great job at creating a professional and impressive profile page or themes and it doesn’t have to be expensive.
