It doesn’t matter if you are new to the business or that you have been a webcam model for a long time, with split camming you can earn a lot of extra money with essentially the same show.
What is this split camming? Splitcamming allows you to stream your show to different webcam platforms at the same time. This means of course, that you could generate much more income than when streaming on just one webcam platform.
To be able to split cam, you will have to use split cam software. Without the splitcam software you would have to use a different webcam for each webcam platform, which is very inconvenient. Of course it is interesting to know which pros and which cons split cam brings and which split cam software you can best use to achieve your goal, which is to make more money. This article will discuss this in more detail.
You may wonder what exactly is meant by splitcam software and how it works. Splitcam software is a virtual video capture driver, which makes it possible to distribute a video stream over multiple webcam platforms. In other words, the software can give you two or more different images at the same time. The software itself is very easy to use. You need to install the software on your computer or laptop and set which video source should be used. You can set every program that uses your video source to use the splitcam as the source. Your computer will then see that several independent video sources are available. You can then safely leave the rest to your computer to do the work of split camming.
Split camming is the ideal solution if you plan to work on multiple webcam platforms. You don't have to use a different webcam for each platform. However, it is important to check for yourself whether this form of webcam modeling is right for you. In most cases, if you have a good overview of the different webcam platforms where you are active and you can give every fan and visitor some attention, you can make a lot of money. If you want to use splitcam software, you should also check for yourself whether the webcam platforms where you operate allow this. You don't want your account deleted because customers are complaining that you don't spend time on them, especially if they have paid.
It is therefore highly recommended to use this form of webcam modeling, if you already have some experience as a webcam model. It is important that you first have to know how a certain platform works and how you should deal with customers. It is therefore not advisable to use split camming on your first day of webcamming, because you will not be able to give customers the attention they need. This will ultimately lead to less income, which is precisely not your goal with split camming.
However, if you are a bit more experienced and you know the tricks of the trade, splitcam software is certainly a good option. You can then cam on multiple webcam platforms and serve multiple customers at the same time.
If you are online and it is a bit quiet on your main platform, then a second or third platform is a solution to look for more customers. Being on three platforms at the same time, will increase the chance that you will get "visitors". If you don’t have much experience yet or if you don’t want to focus on all the sites, you could of course, if you get customers on one, switch off the others "temporarily" so that you have enough time for all your fans.
If you plan to install the splitcam software on your PC, it is advisable to use two screens for your webcam show. This makes working on different webcam platforms less chaotic. You do not have to always close one window to see the other or make it really small so that it fits next to each other. You can easily connect a second screen to your computer using an HDMI or DVI cable. Windows will automatically recognize a new screen and then you can choose from the several options. It is advisable to see what works best for you. If you do not immediately have money for a new external screen, you can also temporarily use your TV, provided it has an HDMI connection.
In addition to the installation of the split cam software, there are a few other things that are important for optimal split camming. First you need at least a windows 10 with a minimum intelcore of i3 or faster. In addition, your computer needs a RAM memory of at least 2GB or more. (but you probably already have this) Your internet speed also plays a very important role in this. Especially if you broadcast HD quality, it is very important that your internet is fast. You need a minimum upload speed of 4 Mbps. If you meet the minimum preconditions, you can make use of split cams. Purchasing a better computer and faster internet is of course highly recommended. (more streams means you need a faster computer and internet)*
