Summarize:

Many sites host videos but keep in mind that all of them take a percentage of what you make. Therefore, it's a good idea to shop around and find the best deal overall. Don't be fooled by the phrase "make up to X amount," as that just tells you what the top earners are making. Instead, look at what percentage they take from your overall tips.  It's also smart to look at reviews of each site. You may find that some sites are considered better because they offer better traffic or less restrictive rules. Sites can take anywhere from 20% to 70% of the profits. Before deciding on a site, take a look at how its tipping system works. Many sites work on a token system, where customers buy tokens and then spend them on live webcam videos like yours. However, typically these systems aren't 1-to-1 with any currency, meaning 1 token doesn't equal $1 USD or whatever currency you're using. It's a good idea to figure out the tipping system so you know what you're making when the tokens roll in. You can start out with just your computer or phone's camera and basic home lighting. However, the better quality you have, the more likely you are to draw customers. Think about your background and what you want your customers to see when you go live. For instance, if you want to set a romantic mood, try softly lighting up your face and then having candles in the background. A screen name can help set your brand. For instance, choose a fun and cutesy nickname if that's how you plan to act on camera. If you're more into music or art, you may want to focus on that. In the end, though, the most important thing is it must be unique. You may not want to use your real first name when setting up a screen name. While webcamming is generally safe, using any real information can give bad guys tips on how to find you offline and things like blackmailing and doxing can happen if you're not careful. If you're going to be on the internet, you must come to terms with the fact that people you know may see you. However, to make it easier on you, some sites allow you to block access from certain countries, so you're less likely to be seen by someone you know. That way, you can block access to the state you live in or the country. Many customers are looking for particular things. You can use physical descriptions, such as "curvy," "thick," and/or "busty." You can also add words that describe what you'd like to do on your channel, such as "flirting," "playing music," and/or "eating." Try to come up with a brand and stick with it. For instance, maybe you want to focus on playing artsy music most of the time with a little bit of sexual fantasy on the side. Focus on words that would draw users to your channel, such as "guitar," "acoustic," or "playing naked." While tips are the main way you'll make money, you can also be rewarded in other ways, such as when customers buy items off your wishlist and send them to you. You can put anything you want on your wishlist, set it to public, and then post it on your profile. Make sure to keep your address private when creating the list. Also, it's a good idea to set up a PO box to help keep your own address anonymous.
