The question you should be asking is not how well they convert, but what the income is per conversion.
For those coming from a traditional pay site background it's a different way of thinking: With revshare cam programs you have the potential of earning 20%+ of thousands that a member spends. Some 'joins' will net you peanuts, others can literally earn you thousands over time. So while the conversion rate vs. pay sites can be lower, the potential income is dramatically higher.
Take example 1: New join at a cam site spends $500 (impulse buy on a girl he really likes) then proceeds to return periodically, say twice a month - $100 one time, $50 the next and so on. If he sticks around for 6 months you could be looking at $1200-$1500 / 20% = up to $300 for one member. How many rebills on a pay site would you need to get that?
I've personally had members stick around for years and made several thousand from each.
So if you're thinking of making a switch, re-think your ways of determining success: With cams it's all about the big fish you'll land and not the conversion rate.
