Camming, Direct, without Camsites

So, you’re tired of cam sites taking a huge cut?

You have fans you can reach direct – social media, newsletter etc.

You have a way they can book and pay in advance. (Your own web site, for example).

Assuming you don’t care about breaching T&C’s…

Jitsi

Easy to use. Free. Uses your device camera.

You log in and create a “room”. Anyone else who knows the room name, can join. So, make it password protected.

Can be used for 1-2-1 or groups.

There can be up to 100 people in the room.

Suggest that people turn off their camera in group, or everyone else can see them 🙂

Adult is a T&C breach. So, view as disposable.

Amazon Interactive Video Service

Interesting. Needs a dev. I haven’t set it up but it might be fun if a bunch of cammers wanted me to.

Costs – $2 an hour input and 15-20c per hour output per viewer (but this is AWS, so I’d also assume for now that output is a charged data transfer at a few cents per GB). Billing is by the second.

But, before you scream, how much per hour do you charge? How much is taken by the camsite? AIVS is peanuts.

AWS usual T&C are “anything legal”, which is why so many adult content sites use them as a backend.
