What This Means for Cam Models

• Stream on the Weekend (EST) to combine both optimal weekday traffic and peak late-night viewer behavior.
  
• Follow up with Monday evening, which also shows strong performance but with slightly more competition.

Interpreting the Trends

• The best time to stream on Cam4 is when viewer numbers are still high, but the number of active models starts to drop.
  
• Between 10 PM and 2 AM EST, Cam4 sees:
  
  • Sustained high viewer traffic
  • Decreasing model competition
  • Peak exposure per stream

This time frame corresponds with:

• Prime adult content consumption hours in North America
• Late-night sessions when viewers are relaxed, in bed, and open to spending
  

Pro Tips for Maximizing These Hours

• Start your stream by 9:45 PM EST to warm up your room and build momentum before the 10–12 AM rush.
  
• If you’re a new or mid-tier model, avoid peak daytime slots (e.g., 11 AM–4 PM EST) where model saturation is high and room traffic dilutes.
  
• Use Cam4’s tagging, categorization, and interactive features to retain viewers once they click in.
  

Bonus Time Zone Reference

Time Zone	Best Streaming Time (Local)
EST/EDT	10 PM – 2 AM
CST	9 PM – 1 AM
PST	7 PM – 11 PM

Why These Times Work So Well

• Viewer Density Is High: There are fewer performers competing, but viewer traffic is still strong, giving you more eyes per room.
• European Prime Time Crossover: European audiences are highly active during their late afternoon and evening, which aligns with North American mornings and early afternoons.
• Perfect for North American Day-Streamers: Many models tend to log on in the evenings, so streaming during these high-ratio hours gives early risers a big advantage.

Pro Tips for North American CAM4 Models

1. Stream Between 9 AM and 1 PM ET
   This time window (6 AM – 10 AM PT) aligns with CAM4’s global peak traffic hours.
   
2. Promote Your Schedule Ahead of Time
   Let your fans know you’ll be live during these hours — consistency brings loyalty.
   
3. Use the Morning Advantage
   Start your day with a show and capture viewers before the site becomes overcrowded later in the day.
   
4. Be Global-Minded
   Many of your viewers at these hours may be in Europe — engage them with friendly vibes, possibly even a few words in their language!
   
5. Reserve Your Best Shows for These Hours
   Whether it’s a new toy, a themed outfit, or a steamy show idea, use these golden hours to shine.
   

Timing by Niche (ET Perspective)

• Female Models: Peak performance from 9 AM to 1 PM ET
• Trans Performers: Also benefit from morning to early afternoon, averaging ~4.4 viewers per room
• Male Models and Couples: Slightly better performance later in the day (after 2 PM ET), but with lower competition

Final Thoughts
