Getting back to the OPs original question.
I believe there is a list of desirable traits, plus some very hard to quantify factors that determine a models popularity, along with a healthy dose of luck.
Appearance: conventionally pretty, thin, young, nice boobs.
Sexuality: comfortable being naked in public chat, masturbate on cam with toys, adventurous (e.g. Nude in Public)
Personality: Outgoing, fun, bubbly, intelligent, funny, creative, hard working
I'm sure I'm missing many from this list. I also would hasten to add that many top models have only a few of these traits. But even if you have all of these doesn't mean you'll be a top 100 model, there is some other factors. However, I would say that if none of these describe you well, then I would not count on making the big bucks on MFC.
To this list, and after reading the posts from the non US models. I add this to desirable traits list.
Good: Fluent in English, Better: born in Commonwealth country: Best: American or Canadian.
I understand that camming is a mind game, and being reminded that you aren't Aspen Rae isn't helpful and for that I do apologize.
But I'd like to think that there lurker reading these threads, brand new models and potential camgirls trying to decide if camming is right for them. The lure of wow I can make $50K/month, I'd be delighted if I made 1/2 of that has to be pretty strong. So I think letting them know that if your English skills are poor, you've got some strikes against you on MFC is valuable information.
