My Whale's are swimming away

Anyone also encounter their big whale cam members not spending $. Does it also make you suspicious that it could be possible that the program might be doing something not good like keeping the funds and acting like nothing happened. I have not questioned them, but due to starting a family I have not been sending much traffic as my adult projects are on hold.

Not trying to open a can of worms, but I was enjoying that extra money and I also expected it monthly...when that dries up it kind of questions why I even promote adult anymore as conversions suck.

You have admitted that you are not sending much traffic.

Whales come and then they go.

They need to be replaced.

I agree, were talking over the last several years around 200k spent between 3 whales

Well there is the first problem: "expecting it". I always tell the people I work with it's not a paycheck. LOL Sales fluctuate, they go UP and they go DOWN (and sometimes they leave altogether).

Now if you are talking 3 whales spending over 200K in a few years then that breaks down to many thousands a year spent on cams. YEARS. Maybe your whales found other cam girls to spend their money on, or another company. Nothing lasts forever.

Someone should let Paypal know...

I'm sure the webcam companies don't like that, so they should look into it, too.
Selling crappy selfies for Snapcash is getting kinda popular now, too, but I wouldn't worry about that cutting into cam competition..

sometimes i feel that the cam sites are completely clueless to how cam girls get their hustle on now.

How camgirls are making thousands of dollars on Snapchat

more then likely they build a relationship with this fantasy girl online, in which I bet they spend most of the time just talking shit and the guy just keeps spending for his infatuation fix.

From a models perspective, this happens in the cam business. Busy days, whales you have for a few weeks or a month at a time then you don't see them for months. Maybe busy with work schedules or with another model & site. Maybe they're doing something else in life.

Keep sending traffic & one of those hits will be your next whale

You didn't do anything to your site in 5 years but expect the money to keep rolling in?

I can see a few reason why whales stop.

Nothing you can do about it. Just enjoy the money while you are getting it and keep branching out to other things.
