Camgirl or Cam-girl is an Internet term for women who are featured on webcams. A conjunction of "cam" and "girl", it is used for women who operate their own webcams, such as Jennifer Ringley[1] and Ana Voog, as well as employees of webcam-based companies. The term is also used to describe women or girls who broadcast themselves via webcam without receiving any financial gain.[2] One of the original and most popular cam-girl sites was JenniCam.com.[3] Newest design aspect and classiest girls is CamGirlEuphoria.com with the latest software.
Some camgirls (often called cam whores) offer nude photographs or videos of themselves in exchange for gifts or money.[4] They also earn money by advertising pornographic websites, and earn commission by convincing customers to join adult paysites.[4] A typical rate is $10 for every customer who signs up to a site.[4]
