Over the past five years, the Pornhub revolution has ravaged the traditional porn industry. It’s hard to make big bucks when your audience can get a taste of the action for free on their phones. Yet, streaming has also spawned a new supplement to the industry: camming. Karley Sciortino talks to wildly popular cam girl Ona Artist and visits one of the biggest camming studios in the country for an inside look at what it’s like to work as a webcam model.
For most camgirls, the biggest source of tips is talking about sex. Sexual questions and topics are often hard to start, but they’re the best way to draw attention and keep the client fixed on the subject matter. Professional camgirls usually prepare a memo beforehand to guide their conversations and avoid getting distracted or running out of topic ideas.
Men who pay to talk to a camgirl want to feel like they have an exclusive relationship with her. To do this, the camgirl must create a bond of intimacy with her clients, which means building trust and creating a safe space for them to express their fantasies.
Camgirls have to learn that their clients are not just paying for an hour of conversation — they’re buying a highly addictive product. Men get dopamine hits from seeing the camgirl naked and receiving a personal response to their sexual fantasies, just as gaming companies make the majority of their profits by exploiting addictive behaviors with microtransactions.
