All of the "Cyber" this-and-that promotions last week hurt us, because CB really didn't have anything.
(I did get a MrMan.com lifetime subs for $99! And, I'm 68!)
December can be a toss-up of some people having lots of Holiday parties to go to, to take them away from their computer screens... and others who don't have parties to go to, so they have plenty of time for fun with their favorite models.
The 1st to the 10th is always a problem, as housing bills are due. Then this month now, there are Holiday presents to buy. Hanukkah was last week, Christmas in 3 weeks. Not sure how Muslims and Asian religions treat gift giving.
Some people spend money on friends and family, others splurge spend on models - which in turn means they spend on us Affiliates. That was def moreso for the Gay Men's community prior to Marriage Equality, but I see it happening on both sides of the moneyball even now!
As an Affiliate, and as a Cam model myself, I make more money in the last week of a month, than the first week, or first two weeks! As the Cam sites mature, people know they don't need to be there 24/7 to get their only chance at a new model. It is more likely that a new model will be there- at least until the viewer's next payday
Talk about how DURABLE Chaturbate cookies are: I have a Whale that spent over $10k in 2016, over $10k in 2017, maybe $100 in 2018 - up to the last week of November, when he spent $105 in one day November 30, then Dec 1 spent another $320! Peoples' situations change.
To be on the same side as many others here who have rightfully complained that signups have dried-up, and spends have drained to a trickle: in the past when I had one Whale spend $10k, others ante'd-in another $5k. Haven't heard much good news on the sign-up front, nor other existing cookie holders in the past year, either!
