What do you think of camgirlslive.com? Most of us wouldn't pay $50 for the domain
but it's alexa is 15,000, 14,000 uniques a day according to estibot, probably makes
$1M to $2M a year. It's just a white label site with no affiliates. Camgirls.com by
all logic should overtake camgirlslive.com

Its posts like this that I've seen you make quite frequently that tell me you've got a lot to learn about the webcam business. Camgirlslive was streamray's flagship site starting in 99' up until they bought cams.com somewhere around 05. Its still part of the cams.com network and does receive affiliate traffic. Hotcams.com is simply a streamate cobrand, there's a dozen others just like it out there. Sure AWE is highly successful with livejasmin, but do you realize how much time and money it took them to achieve that?
You act as if you can just get a script and throw a bunch of models on live and the cash is going to come rolling in. You'll have months if not years before you hit breakeven, do you have the cash on hand to get you there? If you think you're gonna come on the scene, pay the standard 20-30% revshare, and automatically attract affiliate traffic in an already competitive market, think again.
Don't get me wrong, I love the name, its easily brandable and a top ten live cam domain. However, I agree with pleasurepays, with 350k to start a live cam business I'd rather spend less than 50k on the name and put the rest into startup costs and advertising and building a successful affiliate program.
