Nude web cam websites are popping up everywhere online these days. Many of the most popular websites have one ad or another advertising a web cam website. Nude web cams are generating millions of dollars to website owners. A recent online article talked about how the owner of Stickam.com owns a network of Japanese live cam websites. The article mentioned that the owner makes $220,000 off his 5 nude web cam websites. The revenues of these web cam websites are growing fast because new technology allows users to view web cams without actually having a web cam.

The movie industry is slowly going online with downloadable movies and new releases. It is growing slowly because most of the technology is in beta mode. Many of the major movie studios have not set-up contracts with the biggest movie download websites. These websites are Amazon.com, Vongo.com and CinemaNow.com. This new technology allows customers to view full length movies online. The exploding nude web cam industry is using similar technology that allows users to view live web cams and chat with the web cam performers. According to Patrick Thompson, head reviewer of nude web cam review website www.girlcamreviews.com, the web cam websites are exploding in numbers. He says porn customers are moving towards the live porn industry instead of the traditional nude pictures and videos. People are searching for porn that is actually live and can happen in front of them on there computer screen. A few years ago, there was a discussion about virtual computer sex. The web cam industry is the closest so far to virtual sex because the performers are live on your computer screen and can chat live with you to take special requests from paying customers.

You could compare the fee structure of popular nude web cam websites such as www.webcams.com, www.camcrush.com, www.cams.com and www.webcamclub.com to the fee structure of phone sex operators. Webcams.com appears to only cost $4.95 for a 1 day trial and $39.98 for an entire month, however; the web cam girls charge upwards of $1.00 per minute. The reason for this is because the girls are actually live on camera servicing you. The women earn a living performing and the web cam company makes money from the monthly charges and a commission of the female performer’s revenue. This business model is ingenious and brilliant. www.girlcamreviews.com the popular nude web cam review website marks www.webcams.com as the most popular nude web cam website online today. Mark Scholenberg, a reviewer at girlcamreviews.com states the webcams.com website is clean and subtle sexy. Users can find the girls that are online at that very moment on the homepage. It is very easy to register and pay at webcams.com. According to research, live web cam users generally view a web cam performance for an average of 36 minutes.

There are literally hundreds of thousands online porn websites. 95% of the online porn websites charge users to view pictures and videos of nude women and men. The traditional porn website business has to compete with hundreds of thousands of websites to gain paying members. Many adult website operators are focusing on smaller niches that are becoming more lucrative. The live nude web cam business model is a very lucrative niche as Internet technology is advancing each and every day. Today’s society has produced very busy people who want things now. The web cam technology brings live nude performers to people that are seeking an alternative to picture and video pornography. This industry will not become as vast as the traditional picture and video websites as web cam websites require performers to be live. There are not enough performers to have 100,000 websites in this niche. The web cam industry will explode as technology keeps advancing.

t craze are videos. You know it and I know it. Youtube is the biggest video sharing site on the web and guess what, the smart people are using it to make serious money on the web!

With a simple video camera or web cam you have the opportunity to reach out to millions of people. By playing your cards right, you can win the interest of your viewers as well as make huge money with affiliate programs!

Do you know what affiliate programs are? An affiliate program is a simple system where YOU, the affiliate, promote other people’s products online by signing up to their affiliate program and in return you can make commissions for each sale you refer through your referral link.

The coolest thing about using video and affiliate programs are that you basically don’t incur any cost!

If you are creating videos that has to do with dog training, then you can easily sign up to a free dog training affiliate program and show the link in your video or even put it on your video’s profile.

But affiliate links are usually very long, so you’ll need to shorten it by purchasing your own domain name.

It will cost you a measly $9 in total. Go to a website called GoDaddy and then purchase your domain there. Then set up DOMAIN MASKING also called URL MASKING and set it so that it redirects your domain to your affiliate link. That means that if somebody loads your domain in their browser, it redirects them to the affiliate link.

If you don’t have a clue what this is or how to do this, just contact GoDaddy support and they’ll assist you very quickly.

So what types of products should you promote via video?

First of all, you get 2 types of products:

1. Digital products

2. Physical products

When you are promoting an affiliate product using videos, promote a PHYSICAL product. You should showcase the product in your videos.

The problem is, most people don’t have the money to actually purchase the product. There is a solution to this problem.

Ask your affiliate manager or the merchant if they can send you a sample of the product for free or even the product itself.

Tell them that you want to create a fully blown video series on the product and that the product will be featured on several videos. For instance, if you are promoting a certain dog training DVD course, you can show people videos of a disobedient dog and then show them the DVD course in the video afterwards. It’s very powerful and it works! They will definitely type your domain into the browser and then boom, they’ll go through your hidden referral link!

But what about digital products then?

The only digital products I recommend you promote are services which people can sign up for free and you get paid. Like the social site Yuwee and other CPA affiliate offers. Just Google “CPA Affiliate Program” and sign up to a few.

Just remember that whatever product you are promoting on your video, it HAS to be relevant to what your video is about!

And my BIGGEST piece of advice is to create a full series of videos on the same topic. If your videos are about disobedient dogs, then keep them all on that topic! This will allow you to give multiple exposure to your affiliate product.

So to conclude, video and affiliate programs are the way to go for 2008. If you want to make extra money working from home, then this is it!

There are numerous community sites and varoius portals aimed at or related to Thailand.  Many have similar functions and attract a huge number of people, however as a resident of Thailand and someone who has used these community sites / portals in the past I am always disappointed at how rapidly they lose the original focus and all too often fall prey to the lure of advertising money or to abuse by members looking for sex.

Even Facebook, now world famous of course, has so many widgets and gizmos that it has recently released another app called  “Great Apps”, which actually filters out all the ‘crap’ that is currently in Facebook and identifies useful applications for businesses!

These sites, there are many examples aimed at or related to Thailand, become either a annoying display of flashing, immensley irritating advertisements, their owners cashing in on the lure of advertising money (just look at sanook.com and panthip.com); or alternatively and perhaps more disappointingly degenerate into notorious sex sites used by the singles of the region to find dates for those lonely mid week nights or as a convenient platform used by legions of cyber sex addicts often from other countries looking for that piece of Asian erotica in the form of a live peep show via a webcam.

I am not preaching that there is anything ‘wrong’ in this – each to their own – I think the owners of these portals however should beware of excessive advertising and segregate this material / these groups accordingly so regular users can find people and information they are looking for, not get hassled by perverts or desparados and share information without fear of reprisals.

Indeed, I went on one such portal yesterday and was messaged within 5 minutes by a ‘girl’ who turned out to be a guy from Pakistan who hassled me for 10 more minutes to get naked on my web cam!  Not what I wanted, in the end I killed the window and will not return.

Thailand Web Zone was started to try and create a ‘clean’ platform for people looking to visit Thailand to make friends / contacts / even business partners in the country, provide valuable information on all manner of topics, written by those in the know: residents and locals.  It also allows people to create Thailand related social groups and events, blogs, forums and so on, as well as providing the standard functions such as uploading photos and images.

Finally, we have implemented a few extra features not yet included on other Thailand community sites such as video recording, streaming whiteboards, video chat and music.  Powerful group category and privacy management allows each group of people and individuals to do what they want when they want without intruding on the privacy of other people.  Couple this with a sensible advertisement policy and we hope this will provide a unique and interesting community platform for people with an interest in Thailand.
