How Live Cam Sites Work

So you've gotten tired of the mundane, generic porn sites on the web offering nothing new or exciting. You've made the jump to adult cams and you're trying to figure out how this whole thing works. Let us try and explain.

Cam girls come from all across the world and sign up at various sites to be able to perform live for you for either a per minute fee or for tips. The performers make a cut and the cam network that lets them be on their site takes a cut as well (you can learn more about how to become a cam model through our comprehensive guide). Think of it as a giant virtual strip club with girls looking to make paying customers sexually aroused. You'll find performers come from every part of the globe and vary in age, race, and ethnicity.

These girls either work from their own home or a studio that houses other cam girls. The at-home girls typically are more amateur and have less professional experience. Studio girls work for a bigger company and tend to be trained and more adept at their performances. Typically girls in studios have nicer setups with more expensive cameras and backdrops. There are exceptions to this rule though. You will be able to spot the differences very early on in your sex cam browsing.

Most sites offer a free membership to new users. You'll have to provide a credit card to verify your age. These sites are large and very reputable, you won't have any problems with your card. All sites listed on Sex Cams 101 have been tested for this and have passed with flying colors. We have also run extensive background investigating on the companies to ensure they are legitimate and have no consumer complaints. With that said, your free account should give you access to a whole slew of new options including free teaser chat. A teaser chat is when the girls are clothed, or barely clothed, and will chat with you and others in the room to hopefully entice you into a private 1-on-1 xxx show. The girls get bombarded with freeloaders so they can be a tad touchy to requests for free stuff.

The guts of all cam sites is their private sex shows. This is where you and the girl can go one on one and she'll play out your fantasies live on your computer. The chats can get very sexual and girls will do just about anything to get you off. These private sessions are billed on a per minute basis, typically at a price that the girl determines prior to you requesting the private sex show. You'll find prices ranging from $0.99 up to $5.99 a minute depending on the service, quality, and girl(s) involved. When you are finished with your show, you'll click the finish button and be on your way. You can even go back into the free teaser chat to thank her for her performance or plan another show later.

Most girls provide the cam sites with a user profile that will detail their statistics, interests, and schedule. Many sites also offer a convenient schedule so that you'll know when the girl is online. You'll also find sites showing user ratings on the girls to help you weed out the winners from the losers.

Overall, adult cam sites can be a very rewarding time spent. Think of it as a strip club that you can see things you otherwise might not be able to see. You'll be able to enjoy the privacy of your own home as well to do as you please. Check out our reviews for the latest lowdown on the biggest cam sites on the web and make an informed decision.
