I want to be a camgirl, now what?

You might have heard the term Affiliate Marketing and if you have not, keep reading. It will make you a lot of extra money! In short, affiliate marketing is a system/ program that helps you earn money when you refer a customer (through Twitter for example).

This counts as well in retail as in the camworld. Most camsites have their own affiliate program which can help you earn 20 to 40 percent more! Generally speaking there are two types of affiliate programs. You have what is called and “inhouse” affiliate program. Here you can promote the site(s) of one company. For example the AWEmpire affiliate program is the inhouse affiliate program for LiveJasmin. However, you also have CPA Networks.

These are sites that have all kinds of different offers. On Crakrevenue for example you can find MFC, Cam4, Bonga etc. (lots of times there are also offers for different “verticals”, for example dating, gaming, camming)

Understanding the affiliate marketing lingo

A lot of camsites have multiple options when it comes to affiliate marketing. The ones that are used most are PPS and PPL. As a model I think PPS will get you the most, but I will explain first some lingo and what it all means:

Affiliate URL

How does a camsite know that you send the customer? For most camsites you have to use what is called an affiliate URL or a link code. For Chaturbate for example, it looks like this: https://chaturbate.com/in/ ?track=wecamgirls&tour=YrCr&campaign =lXNWA&room=hotfallingdevil These linkcodes you can get in the affiliate backend of the camsite and in some cases you will find it in the model backend of the camsite too. The RevShare for this link is 20%. Every time a customer clicks on this link and signs up, Chaturbate will remember that it was you, who send this customer and you will get 20% of what he spends. When you analyze this link you see campaign=IXNWA, that code is unique and connected to your account (or in this case, our account). The last part of the URL (room=hotfallingdevil) tells where it will lead. In this case it will lead to the room of hotfallingdevil. The first part of the link is track=wecamgirls. This is for your own stats. If for example you have posted links on twitter you can put in twitter, so you will know this customer came from twitter.

Click

A click is someone clicking on your affiliate url. Nothing has happened yet, just someone that clicked it. It registers as a click and in the backend of the camsite you can find it in your stats.

Lead

A lead is someone that clicked on your affiliate url and signed up. To convert a click into a lead, the customer has to fill out the sign up form.

Sale

A sale is when someone clicked your affiliate url, signed up and actually spend money. So clicks are easy to get, leads are a bit harder (but it still costs the customer nothing) and sales are the hardest, since actual money has to be spend. A click can get you a tiny bit of money, but most camsites don’t pay you for this. A lead can get you a bit more. On chaturbate you get for example 1 USD for every free registration.

But the real money you earn when the customer actually spends money. On chaturbate again, you get paid 20% of what the customer spends. This is known as affiliate marketing or online marketing.

PPL, CPS, Revshare WTF!?!

There are specific abbreviations in the affiliate marketing system. Here is an overview of the most common ways you can earn extra money on most camsites:

PPL / CPL

PPL means Pay Per Lead. Sometimes also referred to as CPL. Here you will earn money for a customer that signs up for a free account. They don’t need to make a sale. On most sites this will earn you between 0.20 and 3 USD per customer (it will depend on where they are from).

PPS / CPS

PPS means Pay Per Sale. Sometimes it is also referred to as CPS. You will earn a fee for referring a new customer to a camsite. The customer will have to make one or more sales (ie has to spend money) before you get the reward. This reward can be a one time fixed sum, in general you will earn between 50 and 150 USD or you can get a percentage of what they spend. This is what is called

RevShare

Most Revshare is lifetime (ie it doesn’t matter when the money is spend, as long as you referred him, you will always get money). Generally you will get between 20 and 40 percent. (this will be on top of your own performer earnings!)

So do I use PPL or PPS?

When you refer a customer (through your social media for example), 9 out of 10 times this customer comes for you! He is more likely to spend money and the money that is spend will probably go to you. So in this case PPS will get you in the long run a lot more money. Especially is you choose RevShare instead of the fixed sum. But even if the customer spends money on a different model, you will still get your percentage.
