FAQ

Basic Information, cost and income potential!

A. Not really! You can start it right from the beginning and run it in parallel while working on other cam sites. The sooner you start the sooner you'll start making money with it. If you run it in conjunction while working with a cam girl site, make sure you read their fine print and stay within their TOS rules during your working hours for them.

A. Running a web site is totally different from working on a cam site. You'll have to spend at least 3 hours a week updating the content and another 3 hours promoting your site. So we would say you have to dedicate at least 6 hours per week for running your website which is not that much, is it? Of course the more you put into it, the more you can get out of it.

A. Ok, here is the breakdown of all expenses you are going encounter:

1. The cost of our service: $249
2. Domain name: $19 a year (including the privacy setting so that your real name and address can't be retrieved via your domain name)
3. Hosting: $6.95 a month if you prepay for 1 year, or $8.95 monthly (plus $5 setup fee). We have also a 20% discount coupon if you prepay for one year.

We know for some cam girls it may seem to be expensive, but think about it the other way - it will cost you only around $300 to have your own independent business set up

A. We don't take any money from your earnings. That's the whole point of being independent cam girl. However you'll have to pay a small cut (which is 9%) to the payment processor that will process all the payments

A. We partner with adult friendly hosting company called CertifiedHosting. We have used them for years and have no complains at all! We will guide you through the sign up process and will get you 20% off coupon

A. An average independent cam model makes around $2,000 a month. However you won't see these money from the day 1. You'll have to build up and promote your site for at least 6 months in order to see this kind of income. We have a number of successful webcam models for whom we've set up sites and they developed it into independent business that brings a steady income. Check the video testimonials here.

A. No. Our service doesn't include setting up the membership site. It will be more like eCommerce store where your clients will be able to make one time purchases. Note that membership sites don't work that well these days. It's much easier to close one time sale rather than subscribe client for recurring monthly payments.

So the only problem you can encounter is unsatisfied client who can dispute the charge which will result in chargeback. So, to avoid chargebacks make sure you meet the expectations of your new and current clients. Have a clear explanations of the services you provide. Also before doing a cam show you may let your client know that you don't do certain things. You got the idea.

Legal questions

A. To be short, 2257 law ensures that adult models that are featured on your website are at least 18 years old. In your case you will be the only performer on your site which means that you will comply with 2257 law (assuming you are 18 years old and older). The proper 2257 disclosure will be included with your site which will make it totally 2257 compliant.

A. Assuming you are at least 18 years old, your site will be totally 2257 compliant. We will set up 2257 disclosure note page on your site and link to it from every other page. You won't need to do anything on your end.

A. Your site will include 2257 disclosure notice. You don't have to pay anything. However if you have guest performers on your site you will need to collect a proof of their age (they should be at least 18 years old) in the form of copy of their ID and a signed Model Release from. Keep those in a safe place.

A. "Keeper of Records" is the person or organization that keeps the proof of age (copy of ID, password, etc) for the adult model. Since you will be the owner of the website which will feature your own produced content, you will be considered as the keeper of records. Once you sign up with adult friendly payment processor to be able to receive the payments for your shows, this payment processor can be listed as keeper of records. We will properly set up your 2257 page to include the correct information about the keeper of records

Promoting, Marketing and Traffic Trades

A. You got to work hard at the beginning to promote your web site and constantly keep promoting it afterwards. There are many free ways to promote your website, including Twitter, Facebook, YouTube. But the most important promotional tool is Search Engine Optimization (SEO). By writing search optimized blog posts you will pick up the search engine traffic (like Google, Yahoo and Bing) which will be bringing you tones of potential clients. We will teach you the basics of SEO and also connect your blog with your Twitter and Facebook accounts.

A. You are solely responsible, but we will teach you all the basics you need to know to successfully promote your site in the internet.

A. The biggest benefit of having a blog and updating it constantly is search engine traffic that you will be getting for FREE. The site will be set up so that every time you post a new blog posts, all major search engines (Google, Yahoo and Bing) get notified and they index your blog post within the hour. This means that if someone types some phrase that is present in your blog post, your site will show up in the search results. Search engine traffic will be bringing you tones of potential clients.

A. Your site will be already pre-build with the ability to sell your digital content such as webcam shows, videos and picture sets. However the payment processor we use to process the payments doesn't allow selling physical goods such as lingerie or toys. But you can sell lingerie or toys via paypal. You just have to be very careful since paypal is not adult friendly. But we've seen many independent models selling their lingerie via paypal. It's very easy to integrate paypal payment buttons with your site and we can help you with this

A. Independent cam models promote themselves. That's the whole point of being independent. With so many ways to promote your site for free there is no point to pay for the traffic. Although there are a couple of sites (like webcams411.com) that list independent cam models in exchange for the back link or a small fee ($10-20 a month) but don't expect to get much traffic from these sites.

A. You can design simple banners yourself using photoshop or other similar graphic editors. There are many video tutorials on the Internet that show step by step how to design banners. Or you can hire a professional designer to do it for you for a fee (around $20-40). Note, that banners are not that effective anymore. People got a habit to ignore the banners while surfing the Internet. The text links work much better in this matter. For example you can ask your fellow webcam model to write a short review article about your site on her blog. This review article should have a couple of text links that point to your site. This would be much more effective than simply putting your banner on her blog.
