So do Cams really convert well?
 

I've tried dating ads but never cams. Anyone have some success stories or links to good programs that they can tell me about?

What do you think of promoting cams? Do they work/make $$$?

they work amazing
just remember to always use revshare with Adult Web Empire Webcams.com

people love cam girls

whats your ratio like?

average 1:221

www.videosecrets.com does well for me

Absolutely, VS Media is one of our best affiliates...

Cams are not an easy converting niche.. its when they do it can be very lucrative

I thought I saw a thread the other day about one or more of the cam programs that had a little window that you could add to say, the margin of your blog that had a small frame sized live cam girl image displayed there that was clickable and went to the sponsor with the affiliates ref code. Maybe it was flash or RSS, I can't recall. Anyone remember who that was?

i'd like to know more on this too :)

Streamray is my red line. NO day without sales, excellent support, and I thank them for sending me my money on time every time again, tons of it. Thanks to streamray, i could invest money in other concepts, and i have to say, NO sponsor is giving me for my traffic what Streamray gives me. Compliments for Sean and Sagi. They made me big in many ways.

I have more then 12K members build up and a large % is spending weekly. If i would stop this work as webmaster, streamray would be paying me till the day i die. :) And thanks to them, i don't have to run to an unemployment office.

Thank you Streamray!!!

We see each other in Amsterdam again!!!

Yeah I luvs the cams :thumbsup

there is a reason why more and more sponsors are now offering cam sites.
cams conversion is usually higher than dating or other paysites, but the retention is where you can bank in the long run.

with that in mind, we are offering complete whitelabel solution to any program who is serious about this.

we offer solution where you can use your own merchant/billing.

i think it depends on your site niches.

aebn works well for us, but on some sites its a non starter....

Thanks Jerry F. Lewis & Zuzana.

Our numbers are huge this month w/ the new flash roll out. The big $$$ is in retention, not PPS - just make sure you don't get screwed by the "14 day cookie" that some guys are running.

what up PIMP?

Here's another vote for AWE :)

I am very happy that Cams.com/Streamray is paying off so well for you! We do our best!

They All Suck.

Cams.com geo-ads and banners haven't been working for months.

I wonder why????

I used to love them, but their tools are not the best anymore.

But mad mad money with them in the past.

Hey AK, :pimp

Webcams are the best at converting - you just have to have quality traffic.

We are working on that currently. We've had trouble with some of our geo banners lately, but we do have programmers on the case.

i need to do a cam site

I've made that list a few times =)

But yes, cams do convert really well, for me at least. I love AWE's live feeds.

I did just sign up for Neon Dollars too, as they're offering a $150 incentive for new webmasters at the moment. Looks like they've got nice promo tools as well, so I'm giving them a try.

for general porn sites to just throw them on there, they convert pretty bad. With dating ads you can throw them on any site and it will convert - doesnt work that way with cams.
Im building some cam sites now to target the cam market more and see how that will work out

Check us out. We are primarily Asian cams but we are expanding. CamDough.com Lots of money to be made.

Video Secrets :thumbsup What is even better for me is when they sign up, buy time and then spend that time on me. :thumbsup Double Whamy!

Webcams.com does have those live chat embeds like you asked about:

We pay weekly (no lag), lifetime revshare or high PPS rates. My contact details are below if you want to hear more :thumbsup

they retain well so recommend revshare

there add tools suck but they have plenty of hot chicks. They convert well but it takes some knowledge and effort. Start blogging for them and you should see some good sales.

Everyone will have a different opinion on this, but in my experience cams are a whole separate market from adult. It's not liking dating, it's not like niche pay sites, etc. -- the user is often completely different and doesn't even surf porn or watch it.

Cams is most often about interaction - sexual or not - and it seems the market is very different from those that would, say, download full-length adult films or sign up for a micro-niche, and so on. So up-selling, cross-selling, etc. is a tricky business with cams, even when it's a complimentary niche.

If other's completely disagree, I'd love to *see* how you are doing it ;)
(I.e. not just "B.S.! Cams sell awesome on my [insert niche here] blog!!!" ... Post an example or explain, please)

Hey libertygone, check out Imlive At Pussycash, we have all the promo tools you'll need (and if you need more we will creat it for ya :) ).

Only one way to find out mate. Check my sig.

Seriously can be tricky!

As much as it can be tricky, often I've seen cams work well with voyeur, dating, amateur and anything that catches closer to the more ''reality tv'' type. Building a good site strictly for cams help a lot as well. The actual models performing will make a huge difference as well. A surfer can be totally hooked on a girl and spend insane amounts to watch her strut her stuff. Finally, if you have a site leaning more towards a specific type of race or culture (european, asian), getting a sponsor with the corresponding models will give the conversions a helping hand :)

Nice web can sites!

so what cam sponsors have the best revshare? and of course sell..

It's hard to not make $$.

DTI Cash pays for every click and they pay for every free sign up.

Also they pay 35% revshare for life. How can you lose?

See siggy for info :thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

see sig.

most traffic wont convert cams and certain traffic will do 1:50, test and test more, I am glad I gave cams a shot, it only works well with my dating traffic, everything else even paid member traffic it dont do that well

Like with any other program out there it's dependent on your traffic. I've recently been pushing dating gold on some of my sites, got some free sign-ups but no paid conversions. I'm not disappointed though, it was just kind of an experiment. I don't have "cam" traffic so I wasn't expecting much.

See da sig!

theres no money in webcams

in what niches doesn't work as good ? pantyhose ?

check my sig for a complete list of cam sponsors :thumbsup

I actually started out with cam sponsors, and over the years its made me a fortune.. Cams will never go out of style.. I use Cams.com as my main sponsor.. They clearly have the best product and they pay very well..

All BBW Cams has been killing it for us, we're the only 100% BBW niche webcam site and the results are incredible.. See sig for details

I'm running a test for the last month to see myself what the conversion would be like. I've sent 1300 people over to a cam system, directly to a model on my site and the link is from my site. So far the ratio is 0:1300. The ratio of sales to my site from affiliates is much lower than this... so it's not looking good for the cams at this point.

I've just recently started promoting cam sites myself. I haven't sent a ton of traffic but the traffic I have sent seems to be converting well.
