A New Webcam Girls Guide to Live Sex

You must have noticed by now that adult webcam sites are booming.  Top cam platforms  have hundreds of new models signing up every day, and it’s not very hard to understand why. In a world where we live forever connected through social media and message boards, we crave connection and interaction more than ever before. Live cams give viewers the pleasure of both these things. Think about it; why spend your time sitting down and watching pre-recorded videos when you can connect with a limitless number of your favorite models and watch them put on shows in real time?

But of course, I’m here to talk about the benefits of webcamming work for the models. First things first – most of us get into camming online because the pay is good. Some models give live shows as a way to make extra cash, and others provide shows as a full-time gig. Many models can easily pull in $4000 a week or surpass $100,000 yearly for their performances. But outside of your ability to make good money, you own your time and body. Work as little or as much as you please, when you please, and precisely the way you want to do it. You’re the boss.

And there’s so much more to broadcasting live than simply pre-recording yourself to share with others later. You, too, get the excitement of live, direct interaction, and adoration from your audience. What’s a bigger turn-on than knowing that hundreds of people have turned hot watching your every move?  As a cam girl you get to know your audience’s wants and desires, making it easier to keep them coming back for more. You are truly interacting and performing for your unique audience and on your own terms. Being a webcam model allows you the freedom to work as little or as much as you please, when you please, and exactly the way you want to do it. You’re the boss.

Anyone with the drive and desire to become a cam model can do it. Are you sold on becoming a  webcam model yet? I thought so. But before getting started, there are a few things you need to know that will help you succeed in this new adventure, and we’ll start with the two most essential elements to reaching success as a cam girl model; Equipment and your choice of live sex platform.

Equipment

• Stable internet connection (at least 720p streaming)
• Webcam
• USB microphone

Stable internet connection (minimum 720p streaming)

It goes without saying that to have a successful run as a model performing on a cam site, you need to have a strong Internet connection. You can not be mid-performance and have your screen freeze on your viewers. You want your viewers to come back time and time again, and this is not going to happen if you’re known for slow or dropped connections. 

Webcam 

I know what you’re thinking; Can’t I just use my smartphone?  Why should I care about having a webcam? To answer your first question, yes, you can use your smartphone to make nudes. If you choose to use your smartphone, be sure it can process a minimum of 720p videos/photos. And sure, you can plop that phone up against a book, but to ensure quality and integrity in your work, I urge you to invest in a tripod.

As for your second question, Webcams can help you to stream high-quality HD performances day after day. If your lighting is off, a good webcam will help to adjust the lighting to give your viewers a better view of your live streamed show. If you want to share fun and flirty conversations, integrated mics on your sexwebcam will be sure to pick up even your most gentle whispers. A high resolution and megapixels will ensure that your viewers can keep an eye on your every move with no threat of lagging or pixelated images.

Best Platforms for Webcam Girls

Where you choose to host your shows is even more important than the equipment you use to put on your shows. There are a growing number of adult webcam sites available today, but the sites that give visitors access to free live sex cams are the sites that provide the best opportunity. Why is this so, you ask? It’s simple; access to free sex cams brings in a higher number of visitors to the site in comparison to those sites that require membership before browsing to see what and who the platform is hosting. 

One of the biggest allures of viewing live shows is the possibility of directly interacting with the models in real-time. These are privileges users will have to pay for! The larger the number of users on a platform, the larger the number of viewers, participants, and loyal followers you will gain!

Attracting your Audience

Most successful webcam models will tell you that you will attract the right audience for you just by being yourself. Though it is immensely satisfying to grow an audience that is turned on by you as you are, web camming allows you to be whoever you want to be and perform in any style you desire. Would you like to perform in Cosplay? Perhaps your specialties are foot jobs and more exotic fetishes, or you’re happiest having conversations while exposing yourself… you have the power to be and do as you please. 

Tips for a Successful Start

The financial independence and the ability to create your future while camming from home are enough to drive new models to hastily sign up to sexwebcam sites to get started. But before jumping into it, remember that if your end goal is to make cash money, you should treat this as a business and set some systems in place.

Setting and Studio Space

By no means are you tied to using the same setting for your shows every time you go live, but your performance space matters. Ideally, your space should have little distraction in the frame. You want your focus to be on you, not your choice of art or blinky string lights in the background. 

Additionally, the size of your space is important. For example, you do not want to be in a large airy room where your viewers can not get a good look at every caress. If the room where you will be performing is rather large, positioning yourself closer to the camera will improve your viewer’s experience. If you are bringing friends in to perform with you, don’t choose a space that is too small. You don’t want movements to be missed or cut out of frame.

Props

If you choose to use any toys or props during your live performances, keep them at the ready. You want to be able to have everything you want and need within arms reach. Viewers can pop in at any moment, and you do not want to risk losing a curious viewer who pops in as you walk out of frame.

Equipment

As already mentioned above, the quality of your equipment improves your viewer’s experience and, in return, improves the amount of money paid out to you for every performance. Invest in equipment such as a laptop, webcam, and even a high-end microphone for top-notch performances. 

Side note – check that your mic and camera are working properly before going live. Every time.

Platforms

Also mentioned above, the platform you choose to perform on is just as important, if not the most crucial tip to keep in mind before getting started. Sites with free live sex cams, such as Camsoda, have a large number of daily visitors, giving you more opportunities to grow your audience and fanbase every time you go live.

Set Hours

One of the most advantageous things about being a webcam girl is being able to set your own hours or go live where you can fit it in. That being said, it is in your interest to perform at the same time every day or on your set performing days. Having a set schedule lets your fanbase know exactly when to tune in next. You want them to spend their money on you, and they must know exactly when they can do so.

Performing on sexwebcam sites opens doors of opportunity for those looking to make money, control their time and setting, and love sexually liberating work without ever feeling as if you have no control over yourself or your safety. Most Webcam girls will tell you that they find their work empowering and has only been a positive aspect of their lives. Now’s your chance to add it as a positive to your life too.
