If a guest sees a girl they find unappealing, due to looks, personality, the way she acts, or because they're off cam taking a leak, he doesn't just X the browser, he checks out another model who he might like better.
Bored girls have no effect on cam site sales at all, unless there are so few girls online they're all bored; they can only affect their own sales, unless you believe a customer will lose interest in webcams because he finds one girl he doesn't like.
As it is, the first "bad" link you posted above was in pvt when I checked, about 10 minutes after you posted, then she went offline, obviously satisfied with the money she'd made.
That stuff about where the keyboard is, where the cam is located, no guest cares. Not one. And if they did, they could go in pvt and tell her to re-arrange her furniture to their heart's content.
As to whether cam sites shave, how they shave and to what extent they shave, nobody really knows except the cam sites, but it's yet another scapegoat for bad affiliates. The simple fact, again, is that signups are going to suck unless you're sending people who:
- Have a card (ie, aren't from backward countries or under 18 looking for free porn)
- Are prepared to use the card (ie, weren't attracted to the cam site by the word FREE)
- Are interested in webcam cyber
Bleedin' obvious, right? But some people prefer to come up with all kinds of other reasons instead to excuse the fact they obtain a crapload of useless traffic and expect it to work miracles. |
Agreed. Everyone points the blame at others. Personally if a site isn't performing well, change the site, whether you're promoting or owning it. Never accept it as "good enough" as Damian says keep testing different things, not in a way that might harm sales, but in a way that helps you to increase them.
How many times does a surfer land on a site and think "I've been here before." Even when he hasn't, it just looks like every other site in the sector.
How many times does a surfer move onto the next girl before he gets bored?
The keyboard was the first thing I noticed. Because no one tells you they care doesn't mean it hasn't got an effect.
These girls are the
most important part of the sales process. It's not about traffic. It's about the girls ability to convert it. having girls on a lousy wage, unmotivated in a crap cubicle and dealing with idiots isn't going to make them work better at converting traffic.
Nice to see you ended your post by blaming others.
Both sides are to blame. The whole process of dumping traffic on sites that take money is the lowest level of selling. Landing it on sites that don't maximise the traffic is another mistake.
There are no real problems, everything has a solution. The only problem is finding the money to fund the solution.
If of 100 cents, 40 goes in marketing, 20 in running and profit of cam site 40 cents goes to the cam studio. 20 for the owner of the studio and 20 for the girl.
To make $50 the girl has to work 250 minutes. If the cost is $1 = 1 minute. That means the girl spends over 100% of her time in private chat.
I don't know the real figures, so ridicule away, but I will bet this is where the real problem lies. The guy sitting in the comfort of his home sending shit traffic is earning more than the girls shoving dildos into their pussies.
And they're not motivated.
