Cam Shows: The Key to Competing On The Web
Amateur Web girls must find a way to provide their members with enough content to keep them satisfied while still maintaining the amateur appeal of their site. One way to accomplish this is to join a cam network. Nina Marachino explains how she got started with her current cam network, what occurs during an average show, and how her participation has improved the profitability and quality of her site.Amateur Web girls must find a way to provide their members with enough content to keep them satisfied while still maintaining the amateur appeal of their site.

How is an amateur Web girl going to compete with large sites crammed with content? You can buy content and risk losing your amateur appeal, or you can join a cam network. “Camming” is a great way to interact with your members, plus they also gain access to all the other Web girls on the network. This lessens the burden of constantly providing more content. For an amateur Web girl, having a live cam show is key, but being a part of a cam network is even better.
GETTING STARTED
When I was ready to start camming, I had no idea where to begin. I started researching the various networks out there and found that many were full. Then I discovered AmateurCamz.com – they were still in the building stages, had plenty of spots left, and offered the type of real amateur experience I was looking for. I signed up and waited until they were ready to go live. As the big day approached, Dan and the crew at AmateurCamz sent me all the necessary information, and we scheduled a day to set up and test the cam. They were great; all I needed was my computer and my cam and they walked me through the whole process. I didn’t have to worry about a thing.
MY FIRST SHOW
It was finally happening, I was going to start camming live. To be honest, I was a little nervous. What was I going to do for an hour? How did these cam shows really work? I’d never even really seen one. So my first few shows were a learning experience for me. On the AmateurCamz network, there’s both the streaming live video of the show, and a private chat room for all the viewers and me. The feed has both picture and audio, so not only do my members get to see me, but they hear me as well. Talking to a chat room was something I had to get used to; it’s a new form of communication, and at first it was a bit strange. But after the first couple of times I got used to it, especially after I watched a few of my archived shows, and I understood the slight lag time and what I sounded like to the audience.
NOW THAT I’M AN OLD PRO
A TYPICAL SHOW
Well, my shows can be anything but typical. I try to change things up and use my imagination. One time I was the Amish girl who used a cucumber in place of a toy and then ate it at the end of the show; another time it was strawberries and whipped cream. But for the most part, we chat to get things going, talk about our day, movies, current events, books we’ve read, and then I start turning the talk to dirty. As that progresses, I start taking my clothes off; I’ve learned that the tease really gets them, so I go real slow. Then we usually all get off together a few times. My favorite shows are when there are a minimum of requests. I don’t mind them, but when you’ve got a bunch of different surfers, one wanting to see your ass, the next your feet, the next a close up pussy shot, all at once, it can get a little annoying. But when the guys (and girls) are involved and excited, it can be really fun.
“There are tons of benefits through my cam network – they sell their feeds to other sites and split the revenues with all the girls, there’s a bunch of extra content on the site other than the cam shows, and they’re always sending me fresh traffic. But of course the best thing about being a part of the network is that not only do my members get my shows, but they also get the shows of all the other girls on the network.”
THE BENEFITS OF THE NETWORK
There are tons of benefits through my cam network – they sell their feeds to other sites and split the revenues with all the girls, there’s a bunch of extra content on the site other than the cam shows, and they’re always sending me fresh traffic. But of course the best thing about being a part of the network is that not only do my members get my shows, but they also get the shows of all the other girls on the network. This takes so much pressure off trying to compete with the other sites out there. And this added member attraction re-enforces the amateur appeal. Instead of having to purchase live feeds from a big company (or other content that’s not exactly amateur) I’m able to offer over 30 girls doing at least two live shows per week per girl; my members are getting what they’re looking for, which is live interaction with a hot amateur girl.
