10 reasons why SoulCams is the right place for your videos

Read here why our site is the right place to sell your videos: 10 reasons why SoulCams is the right place for your videos

Who can see my videos?

When you upload videos, they will appear on SoulCams' sub-page called 'Videos' (you can check them out here: https://www.soulcams.com/memberarea/videolist.php) and on your model profile beneath your introduction text.

If you have privacy issues, you can use our professional country and US state ban feature. You can find this setting in your account at menu 'Settings / My privacy'. If you ban countries or states, visitors from those places will neither see your video nor find your profile at all on the site.

  • Guests will be able to see the the cover photo (thumbnail) of your video(s) only including their title, description, tags, duration and their price. Guests are also not allowed to peek in your video or see a sample of it.
  • Basic members (= members with free registration but with no purchase yet): besides the video title, description, tags, duration and the price, basic members can see randomly generated thumbnails of your video. Still, not a peek or a sample is available for them from your video, except if you set your video with 0 token price (= free video).
  • Members (including active members, VIP members, Fan club members): they will see the same information just like guests and basic members until they purchase your video. Once they buy your video, they have full access to it.

Supported formats and maximum allowed size

  • Our system can process all the major video formats
  • Maximum file limit: 3GB

Video resolutions

For the convenience and compatibility, we keep the maximum video resolution to FHD (1920x1080 pixels). Videos uploaded in higher resolutions (4K or higher) will be resized to FHD. FHD is a common format, most devices are able to play it without an issue and it looks great on a wide range of devices, including mobile phones, tablets, desktop- and TV screens. It is also the best resolution for online streaming, as we can keep the file size relatively small while achieving the best video quality. Video files that have a smaller resolution (for example 720p or 480p) will their original resolution. We recommend uploading videos in 720p or 1080p resolutions for best quality. We also recommend recording your videos in landscape mode, although portrait mode is also accepted.

Recommended resolutions:

  • FHD - 1080p (best quality, higher file size)
  • HD - 720p (good quality, smaller size)
  • SD - 480p (lower quality, small size)

Formats accepted:

  • QHD - 1440p

Editing video info

Title and description

Add a good title to your video, write a short description and set the price of it (Free (0 token) or between 1-999 tokens).

System will make five thumbnails of your video, select the one you desire and click on 'Set it as default'.

Price

You can set the video's price between 0 and 1000 Tokens. Please set the price wisely. Read more about the Token system here: https://wiki.soulcams.com/index.php?title=Performer_Share_System If you set the video's price to 0, it means that members will be able to watch your video for free.

Video tags

Video tags are words and phrases used to describe the content of your video, so tagging your video accordingly is really important. Tags also make it easier for users to know what your video is about. Just start typing keywords about your video and recommendations will popup. If you did not the desired tag or want to add something special, you can set your own tags.

We recommend that you choose your tags wisely. Don’t list something that is not you (if you are short, don’t add #tall or if you have blonde hair, do not add #brunette). Choose common tag, that are widely used and popular.
