Nazgrel - all depends on what you know how to do.

Do you design?
Do you know html?
Do you know how to program?
Do you know to take pictures?

What brought you into this business?
If it's the promise of fast/easy money, that is not always true unless you have alot to invest and the patience to ride it through.

There are quite a few male performers in the cams business.

Sorry, I tried editing my post to ad something about that, but didnt get it done before the 3min limit.

I know some photoshop, but I doubt its enough to work as a pro.
I know some html, but I doubt its enough to work as a pro.
I dont programing.
I know how to take pictures, but dont have the equipment or the models.

What I'm looking for in the biz is a somewhat steady income.

Try your hand at gallery submissions. Checkout our site (see sig) and let me know if there are any spots that interest you.

I don't know if you personally are a shithead, or if GTS/NicheSpots demand you to be. The guy just said he doesn't have much money to invest. Also, when only starting out, will you personally coach him on making galleries that will turn a profit from the paid listings? 'Cause if you won't then you should shut the fuck up and stick your sig up your ass! You're only looking to skin a newbie for a fast buck. Fucking asshole...

Nazgrel, contact me on ICQ (1566665), I will help you.

Nazgrel,
My take on it is this - if you're looking for extra income, there are things you can do that won't require any investment at all while you learn the ropes.

If your english is good and you have a knack for writing kink:
you can write descriptions, reviews, stories...
If that isn't your thing, you can look for TGPs/MGPs that are looking for reviewers for pay (and not in exchange for listings)
That's to start off.

If you want to go the gallery submission route - I have to say that you really need to know the basics of marketing to the porn surfers. Even with free listings, you still have bandwidth costs and in order for this to be profitable, you need to know your market.

If DamageX is willing to help - you should take this 'window of opportunity' and learn from him. Having a mentor who knows his stuff is already 10 steps ahead of the next guy.

Good Luck!

Go get a part time job in a coffee shop, the money will come in much quicker. With no real skills you will make close to nothing.

Nazgrel, since you're new at this whole thing, I would recommend starting off by making yourself a TGP/MGP/Gallery site until you get the hang of it. This would pretty much get you started in most area's of the industry. Since you're new, if you want to learn how to make your own site like that for no money, let me know and I would be happy to help you get started
