Hi pornhero,

My twiturbate page is twiturbate.com/xxxeugirls
:thumbsup

This turned out to be a nice thread :thumbsup

Sweet! Shoot me over your 5 character chaturbate campaign id and I will add you to the database so you get credit on all chaturbate signups from your twiturbate page.

[email protected] or just post in this thread.

thanks!

It is not bad at all considering you started recently. Keep on working hard on your site, update it daily with fresh content. I wish you luck.

How does one "chaturbate"?

Thanks, looks like a managed to get a US guy who has spent $1020 since the beginning of June.

He regged 1 month earlier.

Has anyone noticed a drop in sales the last 4 days?

My Streamate sales are normal, or a little better. But Chaturbate has just totally nose dived. This is unusual, it has been my most consistent earner.

I dont get enough CB sales to say I've seen a drop.

But I definitely see a drop in free signups. I was rocking along averaging 5 sign ups a day this whole month. But the last 3 days + today Ive only had 7 signups total. It appears to be a pattern that every pay period a couple days just suck but you end up making up for it.

Another reason it's always good to diversify :thumbsup

My id : WN68Z

Thank you :thumbsup:thumbsup

Yeah me too my sales have dropped but It is normal for this period of the year, many people are in vacation. I am confident it will go back to normal in August...:2 cents:

good looking ones, active like met art. :)

Hey guys hope the last few months have been as good as mine!

Great thread!

Does some one know if you can have several subdomains from 1 domain pointing to several cb wl's?

Like i make subdomains like woman, man, trans, on the same domain.
can i point them each to another Wl subdomain on CB?
so womansubdomein points to woman CB wl
and man subdomain to man wl on CB?
etc?

or can you only point to 1 WL per domain?

Thanks!

need my 35 posts ;)

Let me suggest CBaff.com , which is the one and only must-use tool for Chaturbate affiliates. It's 100% free and it gives you the ability to create as many chaturbate affiliate sites as you want and use your own tracking code with them, so u make money off your sites. CBaff sites are mobile friendly and have an awesome design and you may or may not use your own domain with them. Traffic on these sites converts really well, and there are already thousands of CB affiliates who own multiple cbaff sites each. So, if ur up for making your own cb affiliate site but don't know how to code or don't want to spend a single dime, this is your way to go! (Check out the first cbaff related gfy thread here: gfy.com/announcements/1162207-chaturbate-affiliate-site-creation-service-free.html)

Thanks everyone.

Anybody else have crazy stats for today? 7/26

Hey I've inserted you chaturbate code so now you will get credit for all chaturbate signups.

I also tagged xxxeugirls as "european" so only european camgirls will show up on your main twiturbate page here: @xxxeugirls XXX cam on Twiturbate

Thanks!

If its 100% free what do you get out of it? Does a certain % see your code?

Update:

Earned $63.20 from AWEmpire Rebill
About 20 Free Signups On Chaturbate This Period With No Spending.

About CBaff - F.A.Q. ? CBaff

Never used it, it looks nice, I will test it tomorrow.

so pornhero, not to be a dick, and i don't want to be the bearer or bad news but it seems like you've put many, many hours of work into this and have only earned around $100

i don't understand the "good work!" circlejerk happening itt and it seems like your time could really be better spent making money through different avenues

I was wondering kind of the same thing.

But I don't know how many hours were put into it.

Is it 8 solid hours per day (devoted solely to Chaturbate) 6 days per week ?

Or is it 3 days on, 7 days off, 1 day on, 9 days off etc....

That makes a big difference.

...

Not down for trusting third party sites:thumbsup

Pussycash has always been my top earner.

They banned me for promoting them on Twitter.

Great question Pad!

Before I forget, please let me know the "different avenues" of making money you are referring to just so we are on the same page...


Here are my thoughts based on my experiences:

First of all, you are right mopek1, I haven't been working that much the month of July. My results thus far are based on hours I worked in May and June -- probably 20 hours a week avg so ~200 total work hours thus far.

Second, no matter what you choose to promote online, it takes time to learn the tricks and strategies that will make you successful and give you great ROI on your efforts. Patience is required when promoting online. :winkwink:

Here are my results thus far in 2016:

May - 73 signups - $20.99 token sales - $4.20 earned
June - 111 signups - $20.99 token sales - $4.20 earned
July - 128 signups - $353.81 token sales - $70.76 earned

The key for me is that I am seeing improvement and growth each month with cams. Reliable monthly growth and improvement is not easy to find in this day and age in the adult business. One experienced GFY member who does well with chaturbate mentioned it took him 6 months to earn his first chaturbate check. I did it in 3.

To summarize, I now have:
- a couple regular buyers who are buying consistently.

- 300+ registrations which will probably produce a couple more regular buyers in the future.

- good search engine traffic coming in resulting in averaging over 4 signups a day pretty much on autopilot. Worth $$$.

- I've done the gritty API & database work with chaturbate and have laid the groundwork to launch additional promotional sites a lot faster. That code is worth $$$.

- i have done tons of research on the cam business and other camsites that I didn't know when I began promoting cams on May 1st. Everything I am doing to promote chaturbate I will then extend to other camsites. That knowledge is worth $$$.

The alternative product I can promote are standard paysites on PPS or Revshare. Promoting paysites would require just as much effort to promote but I don't see the future upside of paysites being as great as cams.

In addition, I have seen multiple of my paysite sponsors sales literally dry up overnight. Same amount of search engine traffic just less sales coming through. That has soured me on the paysite model. I see cams as being the better vehicle in which to invest my time.

So I have 128 signups so far in July, my 3rd month promoting... below is someone's stats that got 164 signups in January 2016 & made $3k for the month after 3 years of promoting...

...of course everyone's results & timelines vary when it comes to promoting cams but these are the type of stats screenshots that motivate me and remind me to be patient::thumbsup:)

Ok I gotta jet but I hope I answered your question! :thumbsup

PornHero

Hi PornHero,

Thanks for the breakdown. 20 hours/week for 2 months is not that much to get something new started so it makes sense that you only have the results you do.

The intangibles you mentioned though are worth $$$ like you said, and so along with your results paint a much better picture of where you are at.

Thanks again for taking the time to break it all down and keep us posted.

:)

I'm guilty of investing too much time into things as well. But like poster above said, it takes time for things to take off.

The second you KNOW it's not going to work, move on. So far, all those free reg seem promising to me at least :) so keep doing what you're doing.

If you don't see a reasonable ROI in 2-6 months I would change it up.

I would say to wait at least 6 months for stuff to happen.

.

First of all, I would like to say thanks for an actual business thread. :thumbsup

Ive been wanting to use the chaturbate API to build out a couple of unused domains, but I haven't been able to locate the correct information on how to accomplish that. They say you need a programmer, but I have some programming experience so I was hoping to do it myself. Id like to know how to get the XML API feed to load into a database and pull some of that information to display but so far I haven't come up with anything. Any idea of where to begin?

Well it is easy, in theory at least

1- create a table in MySQL to store perfomers data
2- Python script to load and parse the XML tree (JSON is easier) and save into mysql.
3- a cron job scheduled every minute that runs the above script
4- truncate the table every time to make sure the data is fresh


Python is widely supported and super powerful (it takes a few lines of code to achieve what you want)

This assume you have an SQL statement that works (try it manually). cur is a MySQLdb cursor (plenty of code samples in google/stackoverflow)

It is very simplistic but it is a functional kick off snippet. It is worth spending some time doing this because you can then reuse this module to import data from everywhere.

Then there is the display part. You can use a php foreach loop. One solutions out of many.

Whitelabel Vs Affiliate Link Vs Custom Site
 

Hi everyone,

Whitelabel Vs Affiliate Link Vs Custom Site.

I was wondering about user workflow and user retention.

There is a Chaturbate watermark on streams so I thought this could cause members to move to the brand (chaturbate.com) over time. In this case I presume the customer is lost, right?

For this reason, in twitter, isn't it better to tweet affiliate links or link to your custom site/api instead of pushing to your whitelabel?

The only advantage I see in using a WL is there is no cookie competition.

In which case do you use your WL, your affiliate link and do you keep your custom site only for SEO or do you push to it via social media?

Me too. so far i got payout from pussy & CR. hope CB soon:winkwink:

Are we sure about this? So if a user is referred by another affiliate and use the main site or another whitelabel and then decide to buy tokens on your whitelabel, you are not making a sale?

I thought whitelabels were tied by domain (whomever buys on your domain no matter who is the original referrer). I would like confirmation.

Cheers

Very nice work congratulations

Here is a post that appears to clarify that a user signup that you refer is forever tied to your affiliate account:
https://gfy.com/20675694-post18.html

I am doing a bit of testing now:

1- I bought tokens on my whitelabel
2- I see commissions
3- I then bought tokens on the main site
4- I do not see any commission
5- I buy again from whitelabel
6- I see commissions

In summary:
- actions taken: 1 free registration 3 purchases
- actions registered in my stats: 1 free registration 2 purchases


:thumbsup Not related to this but would it be okay to add me to twiturbate please? I sent you an email :)

I wish I could edit my posts!

So, in my example, it looks like the sales on the main site showed up after all (it took some time): users are bound to affiliate, not by domain.

To be sure, I would like to test the scenario where you register under an affiliate (AF1) on the main site, then go to someone else (AF2) WL to see who gets the sale. According to our belief, AF1 is the winner. Someone wanna try this?

Hey drexl, your twiturbate account is all set up and I replied to your email :)

Let me know if you would like me to customize anything for you (show only white girls, couples, etc)

Thanks for using Twiturbate - Chaturbate models on twitter!!:thumbsup

Thanks PH! Much appreciated! I will use Twiturbate in my campaigns

I replied to your email, I have a small feature request.

May the new week bring us lots of sign ups

Great post PornHero. Thanks for all of the info you shared and continue to share.:thumbsup

bump :upsidedow

Anyone have an opinion on a time interval to cron the database update? 4 seconds? 10 seconds? Less frequent?

Whats an acceptable amount of time for the update file to take to run? If I just run the chaturbate update, it only takes a few seconds in my browser. However, I also added a livejasmin to it and it takes nearly 15 to 20 seconds in a browser (locally). Maybe its faster running it on a server and setting up cron?

If I have several different cam sites I am updating, should I run them all on the same update file? or should I set and cron each one up using a different update file?

I suppose I will probably answer some of my questions after I move operations to my server. Any friendly advice is greatly appreciated though.

You can use 1 cron that runs multiple threads (1 per sponsor) or 1 cron per sponsor
The idea is each thread imports into a MySQL table for example, and then you have a SQL view that display aggregated data from across these tables.
Synchronization doesn't matter much, you just display when the data is there.

My cron is scheduled to run every minute for Chaturbate. It is not real time but I don't mind because if the broadcaster is not online I show someone else. I am not sure you can make a cron more granular than 1 mn and it wouldn't be acceptable for the sponsors because of the unnecessary strain on their servers (ie: if everyone was to pull data every second for example)

Chaturbate - "who wins the customer" questions
 

Guys, I am still wondering about a few things, can someone, preferably from Chaturbate or a Chaturbate guru, clarify this once and for all for me please?


Q1- Considering URL1 above, is it fair to say that the affiliate using the campaign ID "YOUR_CAMPAIGN" is planting his cookie and win customers going to MYWL even though MYWL is my whitelabel?
I am asking this because I have read that whitelabels are domain based but I have a suspicion that this is not the case. I have seen a performer advertising my whitelabel with her campaign ID, which is cool by me, but I want to know how things actually work.

Q2- Since URL1 is a subdomain of chaturbate.com, is the cookie also valid if the customer goes to Chaturbate - Free Adult Webcams, Live Sex, Free Sex Chat, Exhibitionist & Pornstar Free Cams
Since cookies are domain based this would be possible but if you use another form of your whitelabel such as www.mywl.com then the cookie is not working for the main brand, this is a fundamental difference with using the subdomain form.

Q3- This has been discussed before but if a Chaturbate representative could confirm that would be great: if a customer is bound to you through www.mywl.com, if he uses the same username on the main brand, the commissions are still going to me.
The reason I am asking is because I want to advertise both my whitelabel and the main brand, I don't want to compete against myself sending my whitelabel "earned" customers to the main brand if I have a risk of losing them.

Back to school and back to work!!!

I pretty much coasted July and August... wasn't planning to be so lax but the weather was just too nice!

But I am back to working on my chaturbate promotions daily... I have some regular chaturbate buyers now and made $96.57 in token sales commissions in August with an average 3 free signups / day. :thumbsup

I've launched a couple niche domains, more twitter accounts and a chaturbate blog... going to tighten up the cross-site linking and start posting regularly to the chaturbate blog.

I will use the blog as a sort of overall linking and SEO tool to give me further ideas on niche domains/categories to hit.

How is everyone else doing with their chaturbate promotions? :)

I'm new to all of this, so September was my first full month. (1 week in August)
I have a CB WL with traffic coming from a blog and Twitter.

In September I had 1,532 hits with 5 registrations. None of those 5 has spent any money.

It's a start of sorts for a total newb...

Cheers.

It's a good start keep going :thumbsup

I assume you are on the revshare so you will need patience, plus as chaturbate is getting more popular, so it is a bit harder to make money for new affiliates there. Like I said more patience, have luck.

I am on revshare. I do have the patience of a saint, I must have, to have been with my ex wife for so long! Ha Ha! I'll be here all week...

When I see some stats in this thread something doesn't add up. How can a guy have 6000 hits in a day and only a few sign ups? It's as if the surfer didn't find what they were expecting when they clicked the link. You know, "click the link for a free car" and a web cam babe appears.

The most clicks I've had in a day is 406. I can't imagine my reaction if I saw 6000 hits in a day!

User "PornHero" is looking to get 25 sign ups per day. I'd like to know how to get that much traffic, buts that's a question for a different thread.

Thanks for the encouragement.
