With yesterday's Summer Splash announcement, we thought it would be the perfect time for another exciting summer surprise!
Introducing MV Daily Grind
For the month of July, we will be giving away a $500 bonus each and every single day to the #1 Top Earner on MV - no strings attached!
There will be a special page dedicated to watch the progress of the MV Daily Grind so you can see who is on top - also, your fans will have the option there to donate (once you are in the Top 100) to help you win!
If you finish the 24hr period with the highest combined total of sales and tips, you will be rewarded with the lovely $500 cash prize!
The winner will be announced daily and the $500 bonus will be deposited into the winner's account at end of each day (12 a.m. UTC).
We hope to see many different MV girls & Studios benefit from the MV Daily Grind!
Get into the grind and good luck to everyone!
-MV Team
*Please note that the MV Daily Grind bonus amount will not count towards 'Top Earners'. And, member registration is not required to tip the models on the Daily Grind page!
Update: We read all of your comments and while we understand the concerns, we would like to share our view on this matter.
The purpose of this 'MV Daily Grind' was to make things exciting on the site for models, producers and members and give everyone an equal opportunity to win some bonus cash. We want you to know that every model has the equal chance to win this! The daily Top Earner is very obtainable and in no way impossible! It is not an extremely large amount, and with the right amount of effort and a positive attitude is reachable for anyone. At the end of the day, whoever takes home the $500 bonus in reward for their hard work, deserves it and as stated in the original blog post, we do hope that many different models will reach this goal and profit from this giveaway.
This is something we are trying out, and as with every newly developed opportunity so far, our goal is ALWAYS the same - to help EVERYONE on MV succeed and strive to be the very best. Each time we launch a new contest or fun way to earn prizes, the motive remains: help our models become as successful as possible.
Based on our studies of the previous contests, we noticed that many of you have already reached 'Daily Top Earner' without being a 'Monthly Top Earner'. More importantly, we think that these contests are a positive challenge, and provide the right incentives for models to bring their fans and followers in order to create a virtuous circle. ManyVids gives you the tools to monetize your income by creating profiles and generating sales. We believe you will all benefit from these contests even when you don't directly win by both receiving the money from your tallied votes, and by taking advantage of a larger community of members.
Each contest that we run brings more traffic to ManyVids and this benefits everyone who hosts content on MV. These are new clients. These are new potential customers for ALL of our MV girls & Studios. More traffic is better for everyone using the platform, as this translates to more sales.
As the site gains traction and continues to grow exponentially, we remain committed to implementing changes in a way that does not hinder anyone who uses the platform from enjoying it. We want you ALL to know that as the site and its protocol evolve, the happiness of our models remains at the forefront. As we continue to innovate we also continue to welcome your feedback and suggestions, and in fact many of our features and improvements were the direct result of your input. MV would not be what it is today without the hard work and engagement of our models, and we want to take this opportunity to thank you all for making our community what it is, from those of you who were with us from Day 1 to the those who have just begun their ManyVids journey.
We understand that it feels difficult to reach enough notoriety and win contests, so after careful consideration, and with the help of some great ideas from you guys, we plan on trying a new concept for the future contests that will reward models of all ranks. More details will come!
Once again, we thank you for your suggestions and expressing concern and we want you to know that although making everyone happy is not possible, we ARE listening and we DO care!

Vids
How do I advertise this daily find contest on my twitter?
How do I adverse this daily grind contest on my twitter?
For those of you wondering, you should probably shoot for a bit over $1000 for the day.
I was close to winning on the 25th (kept trading 1st and 2nd with Lana) and made about $1100. Just in the interest of transparency
why why why is the same person allowed to win over and over? You'd think that would be one of the 1st rules they implemented in something like this.
because they've made the most? lol
Who knew I would make it as high as 11 today without even doing anything special. That said, I am going all out for July 23rd 😘
Hey! I'm going all out for July 25th! I wish you tons of luck!
Goood luck to you too hun. Glad we chose different days 😘
Yay, I am stoked! First day that I made it into the 100 (#100). Totally motivating,and helpful, given that I have been in a bit of a negative funk recently. Thanks to every single fan and/or sale that helped me out with that, and may read this comment. You folks rule!!!
I am grateful for the positive emotional effect that this has had on me, as well as the boost to my self esteem!!!
The messages I am getting today about this contest are hilarious! Thank you for keeping me entertained Manyvids
Well except for Eightloaded's latest one attempting to shame me for being fat!
You reap what you sow. You spoke negatively of someone on twitter for winning despite them never saying a word about you or anyone this entire contest. Furthermore, it's a bit useless for you to cry on here when everything you're referring to happened on Twitter, a completely different platform that ManyVids has no control or jurisdiction over.
Maybe you stopped being a sore loser there would be no drama at all. Just keep your mouth shut and focus on yourself. Stop worrying about other people's business. It's not a good look.
Let me remind you where the fire started. http://eightloaded.com/lulz/bandicam%202016-07-08%2017-53-31-699.jpg
Straight from your own twitter.
Now quiet down.
Yes, I complained about the Manyvids contest. Ihave been openly doing so since the day it was announced.
Yes I screenshot whats her pickle's current drawsaying wow not something the average girl can even compete with but I neveronce mentioned her name or tagged her in anything. The reason for that is I waspointing out the flaw in the contest not trying to drag any particular modelthrough the mud.
Then you came along 3 days later and decided todraw her and many other of her minions into my twitter feed to attack me forapparently being jealous and hateful. Do I hate her? No! I could care lessabout whats her pickle. What I care about is how these contests do not giveeveryone an equal opportunity to win as they so claim. Instead of hearing mesay that when I repeated it over and over again you attempted to offend me byinsulting my son's intelligence and my weight. Thankfully I am full ofself-confidence and my son is quite intelligent hence why he needs to be homeschooled so no skin off my back. That said, I think people need to know what a low life you are.
If you still don'tunderstand why so many people are all up in arms about these contests and thinkit is all about jealousy then I think you are steadfast in wanting to hear whatyou want and not actually read what many models are saying. Holy run onsentence.
Anyway, I will always shine a spotlight on bulliesas I think people should be warned about such hateful people. I am sorry thatyou don't believe that all people are beautiful no matter their size but thatis your loss.
You tweeted a screenshot of her MV page. Everyone will know it's her's. That's disrespectful off the bat right there and can be judged in so many ways that aren't a good look for you. It makes you look like a sore loser.
I understand the concerns of other people on here in that not everyone has developed the same level of fanbase as some others. But did you think that fanbase came out of nowhere or it boomed over a week? No.
I can go on and on the technicalities, but the short way is this: You're not going to convince anyone but yourself that your rant is anything BUT being angry you're not winning.
Stop.
Starting.
Drama.
Get over it.
I mean, of course I'm jealous that Lana is bringing in the cash but kudos to her! This has nothing to do with her and everything to do with Manyids.
What I believe LustyBustyLark and many other models have a problem with is that ManyVids declared all of this stuff as if it would benefit all of their models. I know several models who have worked their asses off this month and not seen any prize money, because hey are concentrating it to only the very top. And if you want to give it all to top 3 girls, thats fine, but it feels insulting to say that you are doing it for everybody when that simply isn't the case.
Its so exciting watching the same girl win it three times. How many more exciting times will she win this month? I love watching these predictable contests. We were right. The Daily Grind thing is going to the same people that always win, the top 30 MV girls. This is about as exciting as watching paint dry.
So the same girl has already won it 3 times. I mean awesome for her but I think this just goes to show what people were saying. Additionally, some people were saying just make more videos etc.. so I went to her page to see what she is doing that others are clearly missing and saw she only has 14 videos but a massive draw going on. So it isn't about videos at all at this point. At any rate I just wanted to point that out. And no way am I jealous because I know I won't get that top spot and all the power to her but just posting this to say what many of us knew would happen is happening.
She will probably win again before July is over, they didn't even bother to put a one win per girl rule in a 31 day time span.
Or change it when mentioned.
Who would of really protested that ......
shes always going to win, im impressed and jelly. the closest i got was 3rd.
Yeah but you rock girly so no surprise there
She has 13 videos, 1 of the tiles you saw was a free comic book.
I study analytics of all forms, tangible and intangible, in any field (numbers are everywhere, even in love and relationships). I can assure you it's not her "draw". And you're right, it isn't about videos, nor should it be. Unfortunately, for me to break down whats bad about so many videos would just be giving free advice so I'm not going to say it here.
Just wanted to stop by and say, I can assure you it's not her "draw". Does it help? Sure. A lot. Maybe +15%. There's a ton of MFC/CB girls on here who pull in similar traffic as Lana Rain but are nowhere close to the top 20. Again, it's not the "draw".
Yeah, but what one person thinks is a bad video another does not. Unless you are talking about things like technology and stuff of the like well then yes. Or unrealistic prices etc...
For me I know I am not the stereotypical type that appeals to the mass market and that is fine I know my place but that doesn't mean I don't think it should be a more fair system for more than a handful of models.
There's also "what one person thinks is a bad video, 5 others do not". Statistics.
There's nothing magical going on here. Nothing intangible or mysterious. The best free advice I can give here publicly is: Knowledge is power.
It's old wisdom everyone knows and learns from a young age, but almost no one deploys it perfectly.
Disclaimer: I'm not saying two models using the same exact blueprint within the same amount of time will have similar results. Yes, it's true, there's also other factors like differences uncontrollable, but there IS such a thing as OPTIMIZING potential. Right now I'm seeing one model *trying* to do that.
I stopped noticing the contests because they are just the same...nothing new or different. Just a different name. Someone came into my MFC chat and told me about this contest, I'm like wha?
I feel like MV did not actually read and listen to what we said at all. We like that you are trying to give back but you are going about it the WRONG way. Lots of ideas have popped up here that are more beneficial to everyone. Could have given ALL models a 5% increase for the month of July, that would have been cool. Or better affiliates. Lots of much better ideas going on around here.
Yeah they obviously don't care. It is cheaper for them to do it this way and have girls blinded by these contests then to give us all higher payout. Winning $500 once is nothing compared to what you will make in the long run with a higher percentage. Shit, even $20,000 is nothing compared to what you will make with a higher payout if you are in it for the long haul. I've given up commenting about this and have just devoted my energy to a different site that I view as more fair. They have convinced enough people to think that these contests are more awesome than getting 70% and its working for them so it really doesn't matter. The best you can do is find a less superficial site to be a part of. Maybe if more people leave then they will finally get it, but for now they have enough people fooled. Honestly they would have to raise it to 75% to get me to care more now.
I have set up on the same site I believe from what it sounds like you are saying. I'm not putting efforts in here when I have 100+ great videos that never sell here but do elsewhere
Yeah that is something else that I find pretty odd about MV, which just adds to it being a contest site. On other clip sites the top models/studios have been around for years, have hundreds of videos and diverse fetishes. Its not like that here, its about contests not the videos. The site should be called ManyContests. I do not make much on here unless I am constantly tweeting about MV. That is their whole marketing strategy, to do these contests and have girls tweeting about them 24/7. This is why you see so many pornstars with 100s of vids ranked so low on here. On other clip sites and cam sites it is not that way. All I have to do is upload/log on and the sites already bring me tons of traffic without me having to do much. If I have to do the marketing myself then I should be making a bigger cut. Which is kind of what I realized when I got to the 40s and decided to just stop and look for a site that offered more. Its not worth it just to say you are in the top whatever of this site.
yeah, they seem stuck in their ways. I'm going back to promoing c4s instead of mv because this favoritism isn't cute.
Although it might be none of our business it would be helpful to see a total of how much even just the top 10 has made that day so that we have an actual figure to try and beat/know what we are up against.
I think you're right, having a solid number o work toward would be helpful but what any other model has made is none of our busuness which is exactly why MV shouldn't ever disclose how much a model is making.
They tweeted a range a few days ago for the top earners. It's 12-15k a month.
The other day I made 287.00 after their take. And was 25 so judge from there. I assume at least $500 a day.
Either way I can't financially give deals for 30 days to win $500 bucks.
According to data analysis, extrapolation, and cross referencing multiple variables, it's a big fat curve going up from #20 to #2, and then a steeper curve from #2 to #1. I won't name numbers here, but I can assure you it's many times more than $500, at least for this month. It's greatly helped by ManyVids acquiring exponential traffic growth, both inorganic and organic, over the last ~4-5 months.
While I think this response is heading in the right direction, it is very problematic. Say that anything is possible with "the right amount of effort and a positive attitude" fails to look at the social stratification of oppressions and privileges that shape the porn market. Marginalized identities are not checked at the door here, and many MV girls suffer because the largest part of the market is looking for a particular type of model: white, thin, able-bodied, cis-gendered, etc. I respect that this site is making strides to be more inclusive, but to pretend that ANYONE has a chance to win this contest is frankly condescending. I've yet to see a trans model or a WOC in the top spot. I'm not asking that ManyVids become a feminist company. I understand that a successful business model demands investment in and catering to a specific market, but to ignore the many factors that will always keep some models from making 12-15k as you often claim as possible is disrespectful.

This site, support, and Pamela have all been fantastic to me. So I've been very disappointed as I've watched this unfold.
I also want to make clear speaking for myself and some others, that I am in no way frustrated or mad at any top earner on this site. Not one. All of them have hustled and worked extremely hard to get where they are. I hope you all know that I still support you and am proud of your success, even if I am critical of the platform we use to work. (2 of 2)
Very well written, Lily. I couldn't agree more.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👌👌👌👌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Perfectly put!!
I definitely would love to see a running list of winners made public!
Same
The MV twitter tweets the daily winners if you're curious
There has already been one girl that has won it twice and we are only in the first few days!
Where do we see the list of winners?
Does this effect our current rank because i was top 50 then shot up to 200 this month.... which is really odd.....
I know off topic slightly, but have any other UK girls noticed that their work has now been added a 20% VAT charge at checkout, as of July starting? One of my fans was about to buy content then noticed this price jack has just contacted me about this
All clipsites recently are required to do so, and MV are the first to be compliant. Please read point 19: www.manyvids.com/FAQ/ . More info: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/vat-supplying-digital-services-to-private-consumers/vat-businesses-supplying-digital-services-to-private-consumers
Thanks, roll on Brexit taking shape
MAN that sucks!!! Getting so annoying of EVERYONE else getting our money, for our work!
You'd probably be better off showing prices inclusive and I'd predict a fair number of canceled sales. US consumers might be used to seeing sales tax added afterwards but over here VAT only isn't shown at point of advert in business to business transactions.
I like the daily grind idea but it would be cool if maybe girls could only win it once. (Or once per month if it continues past July.) Like once a model wins it, she can't win it a second time that month. It would encourage some of us who work hard but are amateurs because when I see this, I just figure there's no way and it will be the girls winning each day who have tons of professional content and 100k twitter followers. Just makes me not want to bother trying. If girls got taken out of the running after they won it, I'd feel more encouraged to actually try to win.
Great Idea!
i agree, Indiana!
I agree big time with this. my rank and my sales vary each month, seeing that the same girls will win each day makes it less likely to try. I think a girl should only win once and not more than that, to encourage girls who arent normally able to win these things the ability to do so. I wont even try any of these because I know without a second thought I wont win....I know for a fact I cant win if the top girls are winning this every day over. There isnt even a point for most of us to try when this happens. the same girls win the same stuff every single time one of these contests starts. the rest of us just kinda watch it happen and thats all we can do. they are just too popular and famous on here and we dont have that following to even try to compete, or even get known at this point. the more they are winning these too the more they get advertised as well on the site, also bumping us back down even farther
I'm definitely into the random number generator and some promo for that model for winning.
Let's make a video together 😈😏💦
A random generator? This site is where it's at today due to MV'd hard work and all the models work and determination.Things can't be easy.Fight for the spot you want!
I definitely agree... I don't think you can just give away money without some kind of competition... but maybe random publicity. Allowing models to write blog posts and use the Snapchat Takeovers are great ideas... Having a random featured model space or better model tags might be a good way to get all of this ManyVids traffic into other stores.
Random number generator to randomly give a model a prize seems a hell of a lot more fair to me. Thinking positively won't erase any societal marginalisations or discrimination that may exist as a barrier to success on a thin/white/cis-centric site, not matter how much you want to console yourself with it.
I agree randomizing numbers so that other guys can see all the gentlemen can see all the girls on here.
Its a hard hussle and giving exposure to others can help business. There could be wonderful girls and studios theyre missing out on and get missed because of how its set up
You could literally be using a random number generator instead of contests.
Also you could be doing more new model spotlights, yanno, bring some more of these men and transpeople into the light now that we're "accepted" on the site.
For a site that now hosts transpeople and male performers, ya'll sure still are very ciswomen centric. Just saying.
Also thanks for never responding to my comments about homophobic and transphobic slurs being an acceptable thing to fetishize. You're sure making this transperson feel real safe and supported here.
Why not just use a random generator to give $500 to models/studios?
Glad to see the update responding to concerns. Even if the daily top spot is more attainable, that doesn't seem to be the perception and a number of people I follow seem genuinely demoralised by recent contests.
I have been on the site for over a year, never once been a top earner.. I bust my ass on here.. But i think due to timezones I miss a hell of alot of traffic... Which is is a damn shame.. Im proud at how much time and effort I put in. But i would never be able to get in the top earner =(
I think ManyVids could help all of their girls by cycling featured models, adding a new model tag, etc. You don't have to give them all cash prizes, but opportunities for more publicity would probably even the scales a bit, and demonstrate that MV cares about how all of their models are doing.
This is a great idea. Giving models an opportunity to be featured, especially if they're low ranked, is amazing. Also, more video tags and even PROFILE tags would help us all out because the search is never updated and doesn't show accurate info.
Exactly and at the end of the day I think that is all anyone wants its more fair opportunities for publicity!
Yes to all of this!
I want to preface what I'm going to say with a disclaimer: This is a smart business move on MV's part for MV. I completely understand why you would do this as a company. I do not judge you for doing this.
However, your primary MV Girl seems to be cam girls with established followings. These contests do not bring FRESH, unbiased traffic to MV. Instead they bring targeted traffic with biases. This is good for ManyVids as a business but it is naive to assume that this traffic is good for your MV Girls.
For example, my room-mate is Codi Vore, who is regularly a monthly top MV girl. We work together all the time, we do a lot of cam shows together, and we have videos done together. But our fan-bases do not overlap because customers are loyal to their own models, not to a website. While Codi is in the top 100, regularly somewhere in the 300-400 rank on here, and believe me when I say that all of her members know who I am and talk about me and laugh about our antics.
But they do NOT buy my videos.
I have worked with other top models such as Mandy Lohr, and it is only through multiple instances of working together that I have occasionally gotten financial interest from her members. They will buy some stuff because they enjoy our interactions but it has not profited me in any extended form.
Top models with top followings are going to be the ones to win this award seven out of ten times. Do not pretend that it is in everyone's best interest. It is primarily in MV's best interest. And when top models are awarded even more (arguably legitimately so) it doesn't do the rest of us a service to hope and pray that their fans are going to splash us with some dimes while they are giving top girls the Benjamins.
I don't think this is a bad idea at all. It gives lots of girls incentive to work harder, and hustle more. But it's completely disingenuous to assume the position that this is best for everyone when the Daily Grind promotion is only really good for the top 100.
Note: This is NOT to disparage top models or insinuate that they do not deserve their spots.
But, realistically, it's hard to climb from the bottom and not everyone can be a top model. It's naive to assume that's the case. To be top means people have to be below you.
This 👆👆👆👆👆👆
Let's not mention in reality they are not just driving traffic to here they are getting traffic from a webpage and transferring the traffic when needed to win contests also.
Some of us do not use cam sites and don't have that extra push of advertising from the camsites advertising.
But tegan is right our customers know what a differance buying $24.00 worth of products means compared to 3 girls products at $7.99.
They will also save and spend solely for that one persons content & attention.
The MV Team has read all of your comments. Please see our detailed response in the updated article above.
Thanks for the update. It makes sense now. I am eager to see what you all do in the future as well.
This still doesn't fix the issue. Honestly, girls and their followers are tired of these contests and how they're rub because if doesn't help anyone but top earners and kills regular sales.
I would be a lot happier if MV would just come out and say it benefits them as a site instead of trying to keep feeding us this "it's good for everyone"
Because now they are blatantly lying or ignoring the real issue on top of that.
I hear everyone's complaints. If not agree with you entirely! BUT, $500/day every day for a year plus all of the prize money from other contests still wouldnt add up enough to "give more of a percentage on sales" the amount of money they're giving in prizes may seem large but compared to their daily sales amounts? Nope. If they started giving 70% payout? Yup, that would put a huge dent in the coiffers
Again, I agree with the complaint of it going to the top models all of the time. Love you guys but it needs to be spread out so all models can feel appreciated and y'know pay their bills, lol.
Right, if not a higher percent, it needs to be spread more evenly. There are a lot of us struggling who could use the extra boost a lot.
I think the most confusing thing about this contest is that it's based on the combined total of your sales and whatever tips you are lucky enough to get. So it's not just about busting your ass, you have to have the sponsors to back you up too. I'm interested to see how the whole things plays out after the first few days and if it really does benefit those of us working extra hard for this opportunity. I do think free votes would be more of a fair chance as a way of getting fan/model support. Not to mention I have a strong feeling some people pay for their own extra votes to ensure they win.
I know of one model who buys her own votes, really disappointed me considering she bashed a winning wednedsay for saying she probably bought her own votes lol. So pathetic!
It would be nice if MV could focus on models who aren't doing 'top earner' well? It feels a little bit like the same people are the ones being rewarded again and again. Also I'm not saying that these girls shouldn't get a bonus/prize but for a lot of models these prizes won't be anywhere near accessible to them
I think that's kind of the point of this. You don't hve to finish in the top 100 to be the top earner of the day and this gives those hard working but not top 100 models the opportunity to win something most of the models in the top 100 don't even get.
I just want some pizza 😂
Hahaha Olivia you are awesome
mmmm pizza
hehe
i have just ordered some ! you are all invited ! hihihi
Haha just trying to add some comic relief
Aww i missed it Wild_Cherry . Btw you are beautiful! Good luck this month!
From reading all of the comments.. Keep the $500 daily win possibility for making the most in a single day. But make it for only the top 50 or lower.. or the top 100 or lower.. or switch it up from week to week. It shouldn't be for the top 25 or whatever the other monthly awards go to. Spread the love
Even though raising % for everyone sounds nice, why would they do that? Their true competitors like MFC, chaturbate, clips4sale, etc give 50-60%. They would be losing a lot of money, and we would all get richer with 0 more effort. Even though I have never won a contest, the ones in which i put in 100% of my effort made it my biggest payouts. On top of it, all the top girls like Jenny, Gingerbanks, Haley, etc... bring tons of traffic, and I end up getting more sales, sometimes from their own clients! I think the point I am trying to say is the money they are giving as a BONUS has been raised FROM the contest. No contest, less sales, no bonus. I see lots of people that split their traffic on 4-5 clipsites, confusing their clients. Most of the TOP girls concentrate on 1. DestinyDiaz is one of my examples. Shes amazing and she knows exactly what I am talking about!
I myself have already been the TOP seller of the day, and I am nowhere near the top 50. Knowing I would have gotten 500$, I would push even harder as its very possible to obtain for only 24hours of work. We might see familiar faces in the top 20 of the previous day, but if there is a 500$ prize, it will definitely push me to get less tips on Camsites for my vids and send MVlinks, and concentrate my sales in 1 place! They are giving out more money than a CAMSITE, and I am sure those camsites make 100x the money they do! NOWHERE have i seen a site give out so many opportunities for us to GROW our careers. We do have a point in a contest that excludes top sellers, but to cancel all contests and bring up the %, that would be ridiculous... It wont make me earn more. Instead I will be less motivated and lazier, and end up making less money over a year. It actually motivates my clients to attempt and make me win.
All it takes is a little extra work! I am on other clip sites but I only upload my fetish content to those sites. All of my top selling, solo, b/g, g/g and b/b/g videos are on MV! I put ALL of my focus on one site because thats how you keep the traffic on your profile! There are lots of little loop-holes on the site that can help give you an advantage. Putting all of your effort into one platform is more beneficial than spreading it out amongst YouKandy, iwantclips, clips4sale, customs4u. This is a contest that literally anyone can win! Maybe rethink and re-adjust your prices, if you sell yourself short or overprice your content, you won't be making big $$!
Trending Videos for example. Those aren't based on sales, it's based on income.. If you hype your fans up for a release of a new video, price it properly and release it on ONE site (MV).. It's more likely to be a trending video on the front page here on MV!! I mean some videos under $14.99 make it on the trending vids box, but look at the prices. usually $19.99-$59.99 -------- Also shameless self promo I have done over 20 model consultations and everyone of them had great content that just wasn't being seen, and with my tips and tricks and their hard work some are in the Top 100 earners this month!! www.manyvids.com/StoreItem/40807/MANYVIDS-TIPS-AND-TRICKS/
If only some models can see that, the tips are there and its not that hard. WHen I released a BG vid, i sold it 2 times at 50$ a pop and I was the #1 trending vid of the day, giving me lots of traffic as I was featured on all of the sites Member Profiles! It really is about the hype, and about how you manage where your content is.
YouKandy is 80% just saying!
You put it better than I ever could
Youkandy looks like a puked up cheap version of MV... They have looked the same for years, and you only earn 80% from referred. Their traffic blows (about 50x-100x less than MV). Personally I want to be where all the top spenders are tipping. There is a reason why Most top MV girls and Pornstars are on MV. Nothing stops you @Lusty to use other sites. Their must be a reason you are passing on YouKandy and are typing here
I think top girls should always always always get rewarded! I've seen how much hustle they put into this, and getting personal and attacking them does not benefit anyone, so I totally agree with you there!! But I do think it's important to consider what some girls may not have access to and how highlighting other girl/making these loopholes to drive traffic our way more readily accessible would be nice! I've been on this site for two years and I'm just now breaking the top 200 girls and I've never gotten close to a top earner! I choose not to show my face (totally get that!) but I don't have access to someone for b/g vids (a big earner), and I feel like because my body itself is a fetish (yay fat girls!), I have a hard time picking up traffic from the top girls. Again, I totally agree with some of your points, but I just wanted to voice how my experience on MV has been.
Girl I really need to take you up on those consultations! I keep trying to remind myself to get this in your store💖
This honestly. I only focus on ManyVids, others will complain but they're splitting their sales up between so many sites.
This.
you worked hard right? So you won. I don't see the issue.
I just want to say as one of the 'underdogs' here on MV, I have NEVER felt as much love from the top models as I do right now. To hear that you all think this way and realize that some of you truly care about your peers is SO uplifting and motivational! Thank you.
It's very hard to be a top earner. Maybe shine the spotlight on the up and comers
I get where you guys are coming from but yesterday's top earner isn't even in the top 100 earners or a top 250 MV girl. So she would have won that day if it was July. I just don't think everyone should give up before the contest even starts.
That's the problem,people are quick to give up.People def don't understand you can be a top earner and still be in the top 200+
I agree with haley, the girls who are the top earners are differerent, and y'all will literally complain about every oppurtunity given to you. I don't even think I have a chance at that and I'm mv girl number 3? Like I only make $100 a day if that. Come on now.
I've earned $0 today... And I'm doing a takeover haha. And also I didn't think of it at first but when they say top earner do they mean like in the section of top earners or the link of "MV girls" where it actually does range from a ton or different girls?
well you're taking over bearhugcamgirls, its not very big lol!
Very true... I've done some with 20k+ views and was making a little more. But I would love to make $100 a day. Even $50 a day! But I don't, I do promote myself a ton though. I contact the takeover pages that only let girls do like 10 mins-3 hr takeovers as much as I can. The only reason I went up this month was because I announced the cancelation of my free snap and then set a sale for premium and I made a ton of sales just that one day. I'm not hating on any of you, you guys are my motivation to keep working hard. It would just be nice to see the lower ranked girls have some attention from the site cause they work hard as well. Even if I didn't get any bonuses but other lower ranked girls did I'd be happy to see they get attention, ya know?
Yes, genius. Reward the models making the most money on the site with MORE money. yikes.
Lol so true, at first I thought it was customers who had a chance at the money, that would add a lot more customer base!
LOL no kidding eh?
Are you listening, MV? We don't want this!!!!
Yeah, go ahead, give more thousands to your top ten.
Not like the other thousands of MV models would like to be appreciated by the site...
This got old months ago. We don't want this. Listen to us.
I think its amazing, so please dont say "We". Im sure they will never be able to please 100% of people. The Daily bonus can be obtained by anyone in the top 500-1000, or even new girls that join and have fresh content to sell. If this means the top 100 girls will promote NON STOP to get that 500$, bringing millions more in traffic to site, the potential to sell more for everyone is increased. All around its an amazing idea, definitely better than not having it all together. Their are plenty of sites that dont do ANYTHING (cough cough clips4sale), and some that dont even pay their models! (hello clipvia, MGF).
Do you notice that you're in the minority on this issue?
If you guys can afford to just give so much money away how about we get a raise in payouts instead of watching the same handful of models winning these content contests and surprises. Hopefully you guys are actually reading all these comments.
But surely it's going to be the same girls who win every day??? make a competition for girls who aren't as popular for once. Help smaller girls get more regulars instead of it always being the same girls in the top 100
I've been a model on MV for 2 years. I haven't really had complaints. I think the functionality and the design of the site is pretty awesome. However, learning about the events happening in July has really impacted my views on MV. Models on the site earn 60% per sale, which most of us think is reasonable for a great platform. However, when you hold competitions weekly, monthly, and now daily, and give away 10's of $1000s of dollars, we wonder why we have to give up 40%. The mass majority of models on Manyvids don't even earn $500 a month. To know that it's very likely the same few models will receive the $500/day bonus is discouraging. Many models work very hard on MV site but don't have insanely large fan bases, meaning they can /never/ win competitions. Please rethink your competitions and the way you reward models. We all love MV, but this sucks for 99% of us.
this, so much. do we really need a third link to the top ten girls?
The MV girls link goes to them. The top earners link goes to them.
The MV Blog button will hide when this contest starts and it'll be the third link to the top then.
I'm sick of them boosting the top earners so hard and leaving everyone else in the dust.
werd UP.
THIS. I wish there was an option to 'thumbs up' comments so MV can see how many agree / feel this way
♥♥
This 👆👆👆👆👆
I think it's obvious that whoever's a top earner or doing the MV snap takeover that day will win the $500. I'm wondering if MV genuinely didn't realize that or if this was another scam to exhibit favoritism. Seriously guys, stop throwing these random contests whose winners won't be chosen objectively and raise our payout to 75%, since you're proving that you're able to by giving away thousands a month.
Guess we can test that theory as I am nowhere near a top model (and quite comfortable with that) and have a takeover scheduled in July!
Daily earnings for takeovers vary from one model to another, and those sales carry on into the next day as well. I don't think it would be appropriate to give exact numbers on here, but several models with successful takeovers have made more than $1 and less than $1k, so I have no doubts that whoever does well on the snap has a chance at that bonus. Perhaps this could be a little motivation to models who have never done an MV takeover before.
I made nothing from my Snapchat takeover and I actually have a famous Snapchat account as well so it's not like i'm bad at it or anything haha
I was talking about successful takeovers sweetie.
and hers wasn't successful because it's her fault then? I think that's a bit of an unfair attack. What makes one persons takeover successful and another's not? It's random chance or a top model who already earns money
How was I attacking her when she inserted herself in the conversation? Did I say hers being unsuccessful was her fault? No. You're reaching too far sweetie.
You kind of implied it, I'm pretty sure she wanted it to be successful, it just wasn't. I can't be the only one who sees how incredibly rude that came off to her?
Please enlighten us on what makes one successful vs another one when she clearly knows what she's doing with SC? Why was hers unsuccessful vs the girl who made $1000 from hers?
Lol I'm sure that she doesn't need you to argue with me for her. If she was offended by my statement, she's more than welcome to discuss it with me so we can exchange our own perspectives! If you don't seem to understand that earnings play into the success that someone has in their business practices, I don't think I can help you. I'm done and done with this interaction, so I hope you find whatever argument you are searching for tonight and have a great day sweetheart
I just thought that was extremely rude and you have a bad attitude. That's all. You can speak your mind but I'm not allowed to. LOL *SMH*
Why not make it a different incentive daily to win the $500 so everyone feels as though they have a fair chance of getting it? For instance: Top earner one day, second place earner another day, most improved score another day, Free Vote Favorite another day, A day where MV girls/studios votes for a winner, who uploads the most vids/pics in a day, who get's the most re-tweets another day, etc!!!!! Let US choose! Do polls on twitter or something, or post a blog about suggestions for it.
Yes!!!!! This would at least help us feel heard at least!
Clever! This would be fun for models and fans & it'd really bring us together as a community instead of piting us against each other.
Those are some awesome ideas!
YES!! This would be so much fun and would bring MV together. I have never seen so much animosity between models as I have on MV. So many girls are so sensitive and freak out about the smallest thing and I think something like this would bring everyone closer together! Plus, we wouldn't be like "Oh, another contest ... yay...." bravo, Ryder ♥
LOL thank you for the giggle there Corii with your last sentence
Hell yeah! Can we get a 31 days of July daily themes going on??
I like this idea, Ryder
Thanks for the feedback! XoXoXo
im tired of all this "amazing surprsises " they are only amazing for the top models !
it wil be great if they just give us a bigger % !
i bring alot of ttraffic to this site due to my free snapchat and i do enough to be in the top 200-250 top earners !
i dont feel appreciate it , i see alot of favoritism , same handfull of model doing takeovers on theire snapchat every month and they made me wait 6 months for one !
Also i am curious how they choose the Best Photo in the contests?
if you are going to do a theme contest at least stick to ur own rules and choose a themed photo ffs !
Don't even get me started on some of those issues.
My snapchat takeover is set of end of July and I asked for it in March. I have seen repeats of girls during my wait time.
As for the photos during contests I legit stopped caring what they look like because I realized it didn't matter. Even customers have been complaining about how they don't suit the theme.
The reason why they got to go again was because their snaps were deleted from the story, meaning they had to put them back on or that wouldnt be fair, I dont get a takeover until september its like that for everyone. Trust me.
a girl did a takeover this june and at the end of her takeover she said ... see u in july .. so yeah .. some models have takeovers every month while the other ones have to wait like 6 months .. and they fucked up my first takeover and said they will give me 2 days and when was time to get those 2 days they said they cant anymore lol ! and i ve heard this storry happen to another models as well !
eh i can see that happening, im pretty sure they let girls do events on there and im pretty sure thats why they were on twice as well. I try to takeover other snaps because the manyvids snap is way full with reserved takeovers.
same with me. I requested to do a snapchat takeover and they had me wait 3 months when I kept seeing models do it like every other week. And then they announce that some models will be taking over on twitter but they don't announce a loooooot of other models.
With the girls doing double takeovers I'm sure it's because when they had scheduled their first one they also scheduled another. I asked to do on in I think early May and I'm scheduled for July 21st. All girls have to wait to do a takeover on it which sucks but I'm sure they don't pick favorites for that!
And I asked in March and got July 23rd. Seems weird right?
you have to wait.. you cant ask for days unless you have some special event... I asked pamela and she told me the next avaliable date is september 14th, there's a giant waiting list
That is a little weird... I also asked when I was like MV girl 450. Literally 80% of my customers were not even on the site until I told them that's were they had to go to buy vids and snapchat! I've brought in all my traffic, luckily I saw an increase in my rank and my MV girl spot. But ever since I got rid of my free snapchat I haven't earned shit. I think that just proves I was promoting all on my own. I've been trying to do takeovers since I got rid of my snap but it's still no help. I'm hoping my ManyVids takeover will be successful because it's been a tough pay period this last two weeks. I even uploaded more videos to help and it hasn't!:-/
Interesting...Pamela told me my next day for a takeover is September 14th, which is my birthday and I requested it specifically for that reason.
I asked last week if I could do a takeover on my birthday DECEMBER 1st. I was told because I am doing one on AUGUST 8th that it was too soon to ask... but I know they are getting close to booking that far out.
Last contest had one up that still had "pic coming soon" in the top 25 at the end of the contest. That shouldn't even be allowed.
I said next available date not when I was taking over, and I probably asked before you. She never responded after I said I would take it so I'm assuming you have it!
Thanks for letting me know Subie, I scheduled it last month.
Yeah she never responded to me so I'm assuming I need to schedule another lol.
thatsubiegirl, I did not see any email from you in regards to your next takeover and cannot find anything in my folders either, please re-email me!
And I have you down for September 4th on the schedule so perhaps that is what you are speaking of! Still can't find where we had this convo though :s
UPDATE: I found it! It was with your personal email and not your MV email and yes September 4th was the date (not 14th)
My bad lol, I honestly wasn't even sure I just said the 14th as a refererence and then Ryder ended up saying she had that date so I just figured that was why xD
Oh by the way, I've been emailing from my personal email because my mv email was hacked lol
Mygirlfund offers random selections to those who post and tag them on insta/twitter/tumblr, so it makes us want to post our links and stuff about the site. Why doesn't this happen?? Its going to be the same girls winning, JUST LIKE the fact the same videos are featured....
My boyfriend always complains about the video thing. He sits beside me as I work away on here and he always comments that its the same girls all the time. At first he questioned how a site with so few girls could operate because he legit didn't think there were very many on this site because you always see the same people represented.
I'm SO glad I['m not the only one who notices that the SAME videos are featured. And also, if you go to search for videos, the order never. changes. Ever. It doesn't matter how I filter something, it's the same videos for no rhyme or reason. I'm sick of the contest that overlook girls who aren't top 25.
I just want to note, for all those complaining that their "rank" keeps them from getting exposure or winning contests like these, that's completely and utterly untrue. ManyVids does an amazing job of increasing the amount of traffic you get based off of a number of different variables. Including how many videos you make, completing custom orders, creating store items, receiving reviews, or even giving reviews and helping to support other models. Even if you don't sell ANYTHING, if you make videos daily your rank will rise. I don't consider myself anywhere near a "top earner", but my rank is moderately high because: my profile is complete, I cater to individuals, I genuinely enjoy getting to know my supporters, and I make an effort to stay active almost on a daily basis. Maybe if your tactic isn't working, you can try a new one instead of blaming the site for rewarding the girls that work their butts off to get where they are.
I can name
models with 100+ videos and are still in the 800's and lower while I myself have only uploaded a single video this month and I've barely dropped in rank. It makes a difference. Not to say I don't work hard, but majority of us do. The top earner will bring in well more than $500 a day, how many girls do you think can compete with that? Do you really expect them to bust their asses more? If you'll notice, no one is making this all about themselves-we just want to see this money being put to better use.
Exactly! I don't expect to earn this prize money like it legitimately will never happen and I am okay with that. I just would like to see more representation across the board of a wider range of models!
Again Naomi, so much this.
I have over 100 videos with some that have sold 0 that are set at reasonable prices. This is very untrue. I stay active and am lucky if I make one sale a day.
I think a lot of models are disappointed because there is already the Summer Splash going on for the contest of July for top earners (which I am totally fine with). I think most models want to feel that they have a chance to win something as well because a lot of us can't make it to the top 100 and it isn't for lack of trying. I just think some models want some motivation as well and to not feel discouraged. The summer time is rough for a lot of models. Some models have a lot of fans of vacation, some models have kids at home.
Could you have a contest that was only open to people under the top like, 500? Like, a recurring rising star contest or something? That would be neat.
a rising star contest would be awesome I think!
Like a most improved score or something of the like?
All this complaining!? Do you see any other clip site giving away all this money!?Sure don't!!!MV you're amazing!Thanks for continuing to make me push harder!!
This so much! Plus they already have a higher payout percentage than MFC and Chaturbate. It's FREE money they're giving away. This only makes me want to work SO hard in July! I can't wait!!
Go get em!
You're missing the point. It's a matter of lower ranking models wanting to be encouraged to continue on the site and not seeing the same girls getting exposure they don't need. Everyone is asking for a fair chance to have exposure sent their way instead of a handful of the same models continuously highlighted... SMH
It's also not free money considering all of it is coming out of everyone's 40% that they're not getting in their paycheck...
You couldn't be more right Cattie.
Would be better if they just gave everyone a higher payout instead. I have stopped caring about this site until that happens, but I know I'm only one person so its whatever.
How is the site giving anyone exposure? You win these contests by promoting yourself. The same videos are highlighted because they're the top selling of the day before. It IS free money because when everyone signed up they knew they were getting 60%... ManyVids has no obligations to do this at all...
Haley you do make a lot of valid points but try to think of this from the perspective of someone who sits around the 200 mark. They still promote themselves like crazy on twitter, cam, instagram, wherever and yet they never get any bonuses. They may actually bring more people to the site that weren't already customers. Again nothing is given for that whereas other sites give money for referrals. They may even make more videos but that isn't credited with anything. Meanwhile the top earners always get their face and videos plastered all over the site making it easier to remain top earners. At any rate I know you will benefit from this bonus and that is awesome for you but don't discredit all the hard work other models are putting into promotion. Enjoy all our money m'dear
I agree lusty
What Lusty said !
It's awesome that Manyvids gives back as much as they do, but where is it all going to? The same people who are MAKING THEM THE MOST MONEY ALREADY?! How guilible do you have to be to see that they are using us? The top earner is going to make more than $500 each day, so do you really think it's a big deal for MV to reward them while ALL of you are trying to make more sales & bring in more traffic? Lol it's such a great business technique, props MV.
What Naomi Said x 10000 ! i wish they will listen to theire models and not only offer stuff that will benefit the top earners every damn time !
This. SO MUCH THIS.
F-Yeah Naomi!
I was in the top 20 and now in the 200's.Everyone has the same fair chance for exposure.It certainly can't be handed to you,(as I'm sure you know being where you are today.Congrats by the way)you have to work for it and earn it.I miss seeing my videos on the front trending page,therefore I'm working harder to get back there.This is Porn,you're always going to have competition and can never get comfortable in your position.This contest should be a great incentive for girls to push harder.Best of luck ladies ❤️
When I come to the site everyday, I see the same 10 girls, the same handful of videos. ALWAYS THE SAME. but they give fair exposure to everyone.
again not all of us have that reach on social media or the ability to offer so much for prizes either or the whale tippers. I post and post and post ab contests when I enter, I don't have magic fairies to send me paid votes, I have my small, loyal fanbase that can't compete with the whales.
This is extremely discouraging to any models who never even have a chance at being a top seller by no fault their own.
This just blows my mind agrees+ with all the others on this one, same few girls will win everyday, really wish there were prizes for 25+- #100 on this site.
Looks like I have alot of new videos to make to earn one of these spots! a extra 500 would be epicly amazing
I'd love to see some contests and rewards for the girls under the top 100 or even the top 500. It would be nice to see MV devote some time to helping all of their models, not just the same handful of performers all the time. Give everyone a chance to get noticed and make money on your site, otherwise what's the point of remaining a model here if it's impossible to get noticed if you're not at the very top?
I second this very much! We all work hard and it does seem to always be the same models who already win extra money for making more $ than the rest.
I understand the concept and that it is meant to encourage fans to support heavy for a day or so and give a performer a bonus. But in reality if you are a top 10 model you are already racking in the cash. Number one is making a lot of dollar comparatively to everyone and they keep that spot a lot of the month. Now they could be getting an extra $500 on top of that a day for doing nothing. Seems a bit unfair. Fans are fans and seldom venture to find other performers.
I agree with you girls, a contest for less ranked models would be AMAZING!
I so agree. I think it would be great motivation for all the models.
Straight up this makes me want to put my efforts into another site and trust me when I say I have brought a number of people to this site. And we don't even get referral money for that where we do with other sites. This is great for those same 5 girls who it alternates between but not a very good incentive for the other thousands of us! Actually it kind of feels like a slap in the face!
Ok I could understand the summer splash, you want to reward your top earners, fair enough. I was hoping that this would be something fun for models besides the top earners. There are a lot of models who do work hard and earn a decent amount of money, even if they never get in the top 100. I would like to see contest that any models can win a daily prize. Maybe have models upload videos in July and every day, you pick a video that is the most hottest, creative, naughtiest, unique, something/
This a fantastic idea. Not only does it give incentive for uploading more videos but also to come up with new ideas!
Thank you! Any other ideas would be awesome as well
Oh God. lol who comes up with this stuff??? It actually bothers me so much how little attention other hard working models get on this site. Like really...? $500 damn dollars a day?? XD When I first joined this site I didn't mind at all that I only made about 60-65% of everything I sold but with all these contests it is starting to bother me. I sell something that's $100 and get 60 and the girl that makes the most in a day gets a full extra $500 lol that's pure craziness 0.o Where is the incentive for other hard working models to keep working here?
I agree with Cattie and GoddessKristie. We all work hard, but it's just the same girls winning things over and over. It kinda of takes the fun out of any contest.
Agreed.
I actually stopped promoting during the last contest because legitimately nothing changed in the rankings no matter how many people voted for me. It just felt like a huge waste of time!
I think this is a great alternative to the Winning Wednesday contests! It's definitely easier to bring all of your fans together on one day rather than for 2 weeks straight. Plus a free chance at winning $500 during the summer? That is a good enough incentive for me
I agree with Cattie. When you award the top earners, you are essentially awarding the same small group of ladies. Yes, they work hard, same as we all do. But some of us don't have the clientele or the social media reach to be a top earner. I would love to see a contest that awarded more ladies than just the few top earners.
Do the contest prizes still affect the top earner spots? If so, then next month we will have to overcome the $5,000 prize from the Double Trouble contest to be able to place in the top 2
They don't. Our money was added to our earnings already and didn't even effect this month's ranks. I think they fixed all that.
OK awesome
that would be quite the hill to climb
Another great idea!
Instead of giving top earners more and more, how bout just upping the percentage cut? Clearly it's affordable. And it's more of an incentive than trying to compete for top spots when not everyone has a wide audience or big spending clientele...
I'd bring more traffic of my own if it was a 70% payout. No one wants to push a site that pays the least of any of the major clip sites & doesn't really have a whole lot of traffic like the other sites do.
This is really great of you guys to do, to give out money to hard working models on this site.. however it seems the #1 position is the same and will remain the same.. No competition here?
It's $500 for the top earner of the day. Which is different almost everyday
You can check by looking at a memeber's profile. Little metals will pop up next to the girl.
It may not be the same girl everyday but we all know it'll be the same 3-5 girls who are already making the most on the entire site. Of course you like the idea, you'll be one of those few.
THIS
Yep, the same 3-5 girls I see on the front page being promoted every time I come to the site. Why not have a "model of the week" who gets $500 extra and some promo on the front page too?
Just what the top earners need-more money! Whats $500 a day when everyone is bringing in more traffic trying to compete? This only benefits yourselves and you know it. If you want to give back, give more to hardworking models regardless of rank or how much money they are making. You've given top models enough bonuses.
Gotta agree with this
+1
I love MV because its such a great safe platform, but top earners is the same 20-30 girls. You have thousands of women on your site, and hundreds who still make you quite a bit of money. I am not a top earner, but I would love a contest that geared towards any girl being able to win. Not just the girls who can promote themselves on mfc, chaturbate, or who have 100k followers on social media.
It is really disheartening to continue to see contests where only a few girls have any real potential of winning. Maybe a raffle of the top 200 girls for the day/week would be better? I, personally, feel like entering or working for these contests would be a lost cause. I make 100+ on a good day here, but I know for a fact that there are girls who make 300 or more daily.
MV please make a contest for the hard working women, who don't make oodles of money. But still bring traffic and steady clients to your site.
I am all for rewarding hard work, and I know being a top model is far from easy-but the truth is we don't need it. We are "top earners" for a reason. They are already offering us another $20,000 for the Summer Spash thing, this is just too much. I know tons of women here who deserve that $500 more than any top earner. I USED to love MV, but it's pretty clear where they're priorities are now.
I just got done talking about how good ManyVids is to the models, but I agree they dropped the ball on this one.
I think automatically disqualifying recent contest winners at the very least would be ideal
A model on Twitter also mentioned how all this $$$ could be going towards more MV helping hand donations... There's another alternative to rewarding more of your not "top", but hard af working models.
Helping hand sucks too. They need to just do away with all of it and give us all a higher percent. That's the only way to truly help the models on this site.

This is Bullshit
😕
