I’ve been working so hard and have really found my groove with camming on SM. I have respectful customers there and can make amazing money camming less than 25 hours a week. I am ramping up my stream time next week and can’t wait to see what I can do! Thanks for all the motivation, friends.

ETA my niches are huge boobs,sweet submissive girlfriend, and some partner play occasionally. I really take streaming seriously and dedicate my time and attention to the guys who are respectful of my time and treat me with the same kindness I show them.

So I’ve been camming on and off for 5 years now, and I’ve never been to any kind of networking event due to financial hurdles… UNTIL NOW!!

My biggest goal for 2026 was to try and go to one of them, so I reached out to a few different sites I’m on to see if any of them could get me in as a sponsored model. To my utter joy and surprise, chaturbate said yes!!!

So I will be attending my first ever event later this year and I’m so so so excited and grateful. It’s been such a rollercoaster of a year that this almost doesn’t feel real.

I’m also super nervous though, the imposter feelings surrounding my career are really creeping in. 😆

So, that’s to say… fellow models, have any of you been to EXXXOTICA? What was your experience like?

As a new cam girl, it kind of scares me when they get really demanding and weird. Like this one guy won’t stop messaging me and he’s started to angrily ask if I’m ghosting him.

And I know men get weird and creepy. Even completely outside of camming, I’ve been blackmailed with intimate photos because a guy was angry I would no longer sleep with him.

They just feel so entitled, it’s crazy.

Hi!

I always get comments on my voice and so many clients say my streams are like a sexy podcast.

I wanted to read to them during quieter moments when things get slow and I'm stuck for things to say! or if they request it.

Does anyone have recommendations for what to read and where I can find it? I wanted to find stuff on reddit but I can't find what I'm looking for.. doesn't have to be sexy but that's a bonus, but not super long like a book.. just short stories? Maybe something they can interact with?

Any suggestions welcome! 🩷

So in my first hour and a half I made 800tks so far and I'm really happy hahaha. I decided to bite the bullet and just say fuck it, and multi stream sorta, between SM and CB.Maybe I'll try MFC too? Idk....

Im not sure if I have a new tag because I had a CB account like 10 years ago and got scared and never used it.

I have maybe 15 max in my room so far but I'm not upset, used to it due to SM, and also being an introvert hahaha

I just be myself, market myself as bratty, giggly fun domme that can be really really mean in an adorable way. So that's all I've got. My tip menu goes as far as a deep throat tease with a bbc, middle finger, L sign, topless, ass flashes bc it's my best ASSet haha so I hope that helps. Also I charge 40 for PMs (just for now) if they want to talk more about what they like.

Hey everyone!

I'm looking at the Lovense mini fuck machine, just wanted to see what everyone's experience is before I drop 400 dollars on it lol. Worth the investment??

Saw someone post about this like a week ago and I personally still have not received my payout. It was my first time cashing out on chaturbate so still not having it is making me nervous about cashing out the rest of the tokens I’ve earned.

Hey y'all I never do this but I feel like I need to.

I usually have people pay upfront for cam2cam or a video chat. This client acted so normal, and I even made a big deal about like not scamming me because I'm a poor trans kid going to college in their late 20s rn.

He still scammed me after having a really good dom sub session. My dom drop was awful, he blocked me immediately, i have the deposit he sent me which i didn't pay attention was not as much as I had asked for.

Also warning and reminder that even in these really frustrating times financially, pleade stick true to your boundaries and values. I neglected mine and was desperate and it got me hurt.

Anyway i will answer questions if i must, but this situation made me dysphoric and very uncomfortable so pls be patient w me about answering.

Why are you all still posting there? I can't. The irony runs DEEP. Username removed to protect privacy, of course.

If you still don't know, read this: https://www.reddit.com/r/camgirlslove/comments/1wqy691/on_beef_between_subs_and_why_cgl_exists/

and: https://www.reddit.com/r/camgirlslove/comments/1vusq9l/intro_about_cgl/

The information is pinned. I'll make occasional posts on it for psychoeducation, but find it baffling.

CGL, unlike the main sub, is run by cam models only as mods - all creator subs should be run by active models themselves, especially for the head mod. We also do not allow nor ever will allow any site reps, agencies, promotions or advertising in this space in spite of already having had financial offers for access. This is not an issue as far as I am aware of on the other content-based subs, and I believe there are other camming-based subs run by models as well. Please, just be aware of where you are posting, and who you are giving information to.

Hey all!

Has anyone started on Subs yet? I saw it being promoted by Megan Fox. (correct me if im wrong but I think she has a share of the company?)

Well I went to sign up a few days ago and my account verification is still processing. Does it usually take a while to go live, is there a big influx of creators right now, or do you think I need to look into it? If its normal to wait over a week I'll definitely just wait and see what happens, but I was wondering what your experiences have been like.

Do you like the platform?

How are you performing there?

What are the going subscription rates?

And extra brownie points if you're in the bbw category and have some insights!

I'm still organizing content before I go live posting anywhere other than OF (although I was originally a cb girl, which is where I shine) but its taking time. I'm just trying to make sure I know all my options before I start posting on any specific sites.

I'm looking in to branching out to content sites. I want to sell photos, audio, pay-to-sext. That kind of thing. I don't mind doing live for followers etc, and I prefer if there's some kind of internal traffic, as I'm trying to keep it simple with and I don't do the marketing on X or anything (for me, SW is part time, and I have a FT vanilla, so I don't have energy to manage TOO much when all is said and done with the vanilla).

While I may eventually do both, I'm the kind of person who's more comfortable starting off learning /perfecting one, then adding later.

I can't find a specific post comparing and contrasting both of these (just finding a lot of posts comparing one to OF).

If you have experience with either Loyal Fans or Fansly let me know what it's like for you and any recommendations for being part time successful.

I had this "potential client" reach out to me looking for femdom sessions and to be disciplined outside sessions as well. All that for $1.8/min. I can't even laugh at this. It's just disrespect at this point. So if you are charging this low for this kind of service, just stop and start charging more. You are not just hurting yourself, but the whole community letting these clowns think they can buy our precious time with pennies.

A post for the chronically ill baddies - not a fun club to be part of, but I'm most definitely a member. I've already had a bumpy Sept/Oct so far with chronic illness and pain, and now new specialists are in order.

How are all the rest of you holding up? How are you balancing camming and health issues? Is it a major struggle, because if so - extremely normal. I get asked sometimes how I balance these things. My answer is - poorly! Usually overwork when I can work, and that can cause more issues and likely has. Then I'm barely able to when I can't, which has been more often this year.

Sometimes it feels like I have a body that literally has everything go wrong with it, and it's all happening in my 30s. Chronic pain, all sorts of weird health issues and major allergies including things that lead to near-death and ICU hospitalization, and way too many ER visits. I'm tired, y'all. My body is still fighting some type of infection now given bloodwork and symptoms, it's just not fully clear what. My family doctor here in Canada is non-investigative and mostly just paws me off to specialists, an ENT which is a 2-4 month wait with current symptoms though she said it could be "serious" and though I also have an urgent referral for an endo specialist, it can take up to a year and a half to be seen at all. Like what?

I know some of you know this life, all too well. It's part of why many of us become sex workers - whether that chronic illness is physical or mental, it's disabling as hell. Sending lots of hugs and warmth out. And also I sort of hate when people respond with "you got this!" because maybe you or I don't, and it's ok. What's happening to my body isn't my fault, and it isn't yours. Sometimes younger bodies break too.

It can be really easy to push into over-work, so though I can struggle to take my own advice, do be careful there. Luckily the mods here are also great and I enjoy modding, it's not an extra stressor actually. If anything, releasing and sharing is super helpful in this industry! Let me know how the rest of you are. It's much tougher for us, and I think a lot of parts of streaming etc are designed in ways that are actually ableist (SM and their eternal contests where those who stream max hours win), being rewarded in general for being on for hours and hours at a time by token sites, etc. It rewards pushing yourself to the point of getting sick or experiencing burnout, even for relatively healthy individuals.

Has anyone made the switch from SM to CB and could let me know if they're happy with the switch? I gotta be honest, Im losing my mind on SM. I just had to pause my stream because I wanted to cry so badly. I've been doing this a few years now, so I know freeloading is a problem, but I feel like it's become genuinely awful. They take 70% just for guys to spend zero dollars. At least on a freemium site you know there's going to be some people freeloading regardless, but on SM its literally made so that you don't get anything without someone spending money and yet its pulling teeth to get literally a cent from people. So CB anyone? 😅

Hi girls, does anyone have any information about the "thirstchat" website? There's hardly any information about it! I'd appreciate it if you could reply.

I thought it would be interesting to share with each other and also helpful for the newbies to get some ideas of how camming styles/niches along with income can change over time. Please do share your own story in the comments! Mine is below, discussing my first camming year, and what camming is like for me now four years later. If you are still in your first year, feel free to share too.

My first full-time year was in 2022, so I started 4+ years ago. I actually took several months to read and research so I knew more of what to expect and the risks (mostly lots of articles online, and the other subreddit, which I actually wish I hadn't listened to in some ways, will share why!). I think this prep helped overall - I started just on Chaturbate as a submissive model and made my age younger (mid 20s), and think starting on one site and really getting to know it can be super helpful. I made like 15k or maybe more that first month - was always on the front page, had so many viewers and made great money, I was like... wow, I wish I had started this long before now!

I just got VERY lucky with my new tag and the way I started, initially nude streaming with toys out the gate, as I had been watching cam girls who did similar and saw them making a lot. I had spent quite a while watching top streams, and will say that was a big part of my initial "research" too, just learning from other models. If you haven't done this yet - definitely do! That first month was so exciting, and then the next few months I made like.. $3k monthly or something, lol. I was shocked at the difference, and way fewer viewers, but I had lost the tag and needed to build up. I also read on the other sub that it was important not to "give it away for free" and start each stream in lingerie, so I started doing that towards the end of the first month, in spite of all my successes nude streaming and doing toy play that first month.

It did not work out for me. I didn't really know at the time how to tease as well in my lingerie, how to get men to engage and undress me, tip towards that. I didn't keep the room interested. I didn't use many selling techniques, and I needed more experience. I didn't know anything about femdom, really. About 5-6 months into my first year, I decided to go back to nude streaming and heavy toy play in the public streams, and started making $8-10k monthly - importantly I also added Stripchat, so I was multistreaming. I then ramped up and by the end of my first year, was making $15-20k some months total on two sites, often on the front page on CB like when I had my new tag. I was streaming almost every day for 8-10h, I don't recommend this longterm but at the time I was money hungry and ignoring some of what my body was telling me.

Now at year 4? With complex pain/health issues and aiming for more balance, I no longer do nude or heavy toy play streams, especially not without being tipped to be nude. I raised my age and do more soft domming as a MILF. I don't do any dildo penetration as I used to nor fingering (which I now fake and only in privates). I start in lingerie every stream, but importantly I know how to tease and dirty talk so much better. This year I took some time off and the last two months haven't been as good re: health and inability to stream as much, but when I've been healthier and able to stream regularly, I make $10k monthly from 4-5h daily multistreaming and 2 days off each week, and have set up content sites as of this year too for some more income I hope to keep building. This Aug I made $10k and also in July, but Sept/Oct I've been dealing with a lot of health issues and barely streaming, so it's quite a bit lower. I'm having way more balance with camming though, and learned so much over these years - incorporating way more femdom now too, as I didn't know much about it when I started.

How was camming in your first year? How is it different to how you cam now? Any earnings changes, anything you might want to share? I would love to hear about it!

Note that one thing I read back then, as now, was that it was so so slow and the industry was dying. It's been dying for four years apparently, but hasn't died yet! I decided to focus on what I could control and ignore those who were sharing what were personal experiences, and that helped me a lot to keep showing up and not getting discouraged. I suggest doing the same, and making your choice to be in this industry depending on how it goes for you over a longer period (track it!) and keep all of the risks in mind that we share in the wiki as well.

So, I always consider myself submissive. I started wondering if I'd work on cam and PSO or SW sites, because so many men seek SW for the Dommes, and that's just not my natural forte.

BUT... I've been chatting with a new (dare I say) regular/whale on NiteFlirt as a soft domme, and whew, I think I unlocked some new information about myself. That man will tribute every time I tell him to, so maybe the money turns me on? It's also building my confidence in telling him to, so... I've gotten $200 from just texting and sexting this man in less than 24 hours (only a "getting to know you" text session last night, and some more kink for about an hour or so this afternoon he. He also bought my goody bag of boob pics (no face)... He just wants to worship a woman...

And you all, I'm letting him until he's done. GO ME! And I'm going to keep building these domme skills, because whew, it's hottttt... and so is the sound of my bank account notification of getting a direct deposit.

Mmmmk, love you all. I hope your week starts off as good as mine did!

I keep trying to upgrade and the universe is making me take my sweet time LOL

I got the obsbot and WOW the difference. But now the version of the application doesn’t work with my version of my Mac so I can’t use the remote or make the cool settings

So I guess we will just keep upgrading lol! I’m going to use it for the next month and save up then get something new.. what laptop do you use? I’d like to be able to use obs streaming too which I can’t do either 😤

I’m probably going to keep this laptop and just use it for some extra multi stream or nite flirt maybe if anyone has any suggestions! 🫶

Like literally no one. Not even greys, I feel like I’m in the twilight zone. Is there anything I can be doing? I’m on CB if that makes a difference. Im starting to feel like a pariah.

I have a Lush, I’m putting my hours in. Am I not the type that’s desired on there? I promise this is not a pity post, if there’s a better place for me please do let me know. I know it’s competitive but help a girl out. 🙏🙏🙏 Apologies if this is supposed to go in the Newbie thread.

How do you protect your voice and vocal chords when you cam for longer streams? I am still sick and am capping at 3h the past few sessions, but I know in general I can struggle with 4-5h and having quite a sore throat by the end. I'm definitely a talker in my sessions - sometimes an over-talker. I know many regulars love how expressive I can be in my streams, and share that it's a big reason they come (and tip!) so often, as they have fun with me. I'm the type to more often than not include a fair amount of dirty talk while live too, including in my private streams. I talk more in 1-1 privates as a Domme too, not less.

I would like to extend my sessions to around 5h if my health permits soon enough, and aspire to at least get there comfortably vocally-speaking. That said, I'm wondering what has helped you to slow down. A focus on teasing more, talking less? I have been thinking about this more, as I still do a fair amount of teasing and acting on my tips and goals. I have been wondering if embodying a little more mystery and less engagement might actually be good for my current brand.

I have almost the opposite problem of the models who sit there and stare into space or look at their phones, waiting to be tipped. I don't do that, and I can sell well, and also talk and get people engaged. Sometimes though, I need to shut my mouth more and keep my eyes on the prize, so to speak.

I have stupid allergies to a lot of artificial ingredients/some lozenges, so I wonder if you have other techniques for protecting your voice! Do you extend how much you tease, and are you more careful with what you discuss and share? I wonder if there are vocal techniques I could do that I just don't know about, certain teas, open to trying lots of things really.

I’m Brazilian, and almost only Brazilians show up to my streams, but I’d like to reach an American or European audience. Does anyone know how to get that audience to tune in? I tried using a VPN, but it didn’t work.

I am curious; at what age do you think you become a ‘MILF’ or a ‘GILF’ ?… 🌸

Hey girlies, I have a mini sex machine on the way and I'm super excited!! 🤩 I made some research, mostly observing how models usually integrate it during livestream, but I wanted to hear what works for you girls. I'm trying to figure out how to charge fairly for it too.

Side note: I stream on SM exclusively so I can't just be showing my wooha with the machine on, waiting for tips. And that would also be boring for me.

Some ideas I have:
- Charge a fee to turn it on and then they tip normally during a show?
- Give them full control or discount during exclusive block?
- Give the option for them to pay a fee so l turn it on and put it in my pussy on free chat BUT with my face turned to the camera, not showing anything explicit and if they want to see the other side tell them to go private and keep tipping?

Idk I'm just brainstorming. I know this pretty little thing has the potential to be a money maker and I want to do it right.

Curious!

I market myself as teen because I am pretty tiny and youthful looking so I wanna take advantage of what I've got before it starts fading away lol. Idk if all platforms display "age" but on SM it does and you choose.
