Those myfreecams threads are the only ones in gfy without affiliate signup links, this should give an idea.
Mfc is the tube-facebook of cams, it does well because it pay nothing to affiliates (well there are affiliates on invite only, but they're not as needed).
I would like to warn those who think they clone mfc and will be rich.
The mfc type of site it work only if you are the #1 with lots traffic. Is like for facebook, if you do a site same as facebook it fail because you not find friends there and so on.
There would be dozens of mfc clones doing well if it was not this way, instead there are few and not as successful. Note that mfc started in 2004 and no one cared to it until 2008, it took the time, and they was the first (well cam4.com was there for free, should give credit to it, but was no tips site, and while viewers are many, the tips are not mfc level).
One thing nearly no one seems to know, it is that secretfriends.com and directsex.com was showing for free the video of every private already in 2004 (but not the chat text, that was the private thing), at the time I was wondering if this was crazy, but it was not eventually - however they did not used this first move advantage fully it seems.
The old style cam sites can still do well and even grow, but only by paying lots for the traffic and so less income for them and the models, while mfc grows auto pilot and free due to tube-facebook biz model, which I repeat, work only for #1 who is already big, not for others.
90% of the old style cam sites... are adding free shows for tips, as separate sites (ex: stripshow.com for cams.com) or sections (too many to list them all - some do it as very cheap group shows, others simply free shows). We done it too, tubecamgirl.com , and while it is paintful expensive to start it due to adverts, then I have to say it goes auto-pilot much better then the strictly pay per view (our is chatgf.com ).
So like prerecorded content sites setup or buy tubes, the classic ppv cam sites setup a mfc-type site or section, so to cover it too, but it does not replace the whole biz.
Especially note we made it a different domain name tubecamgirl.com and it is not linked from within chatgf.com , as it is a self-cannibalizing otherwise. You don't put a tube inside a pay member area I suppose.
A question someone made: mfc will force to close everyone else... my answer it is: the classic style cam sites who are well managed will continue do to well as long as well managed, especially those around since years (we also had whales but $90k a year, despite the mfc existed.. as if a guy like a girl and she's in our site and not in mfc, he will not care of 10000 girls in mfc but only to our one, that's the cool thing of cams).
However, it is true that mfc make it 10 times harder for totally new cam sites to be launched and stay up, either classic or mfc style - I mean if there was not mfc it was still difficult to launch a classic cam site because saturation of existing classic cam sites, but in addition to that, you can't have an easy launch even an mfc-type of site since mfc is there big and famous already. Is like if you want to launch a tube and you got already pornhub xhamster and xvideos, is not as easy as you launched a tube in 2007, you may agree on that.
