I honestly think that models get the short end of the deal in most instances.
I have heard of examples where guys hire a model, pay them zip for their modeling work, have them do hours of cam work, appearances, etc., for a few months, and then once they have enough content to last a year or two, they dump the model.
On top of that, they only pay the model on the net earnings while she is active (not gross earnings), so she is essentially paying for 50% or more of the webmasters expenses, plus paying most if not all of her own expenses such as outfits (which get real expensive fast, since - unless you are low-budget, you only shoot each outfit once), hair and nails ($100 plus per session), transportation, and all of the time involved with doing cam shows, appearances, etc.
I am not fond of models that are prima dona-like, but I am even less happy with guys that treat models badly by not providing with compensation for the value that they bring to the table. No model, no site.
The end result is that the model's earnings as compared to the pimp...er, webmaster that cons her into such a deal with promises of great riches, is like maybe 10% of the total earnings, if she is lucky. That sucks!!!
I pay models for all modeling, for all cam work (if any), for all appearances, plus give them 50% of the gross and pick up much of their outfit, make-up and transportation/lodging expenses, and I still make a good profit.
There is no need to be so greedy, especially when you are simply cranking out a cookie cutter site on a shared server with burst bandwidth.
