How CamTrends ranks live models (TrendScore)

By CamTrends ·

CamTrends publishes TrendScore, our audience score for live performers we track. It orders the Trending page and the TrendScore sort. It is not a cam site’s internal popularity rank, and it is not a paid placement product.

All ranked performers are 18 or older.

What TrendScore is

TrendScore summarises how a model’s audience and activity look in our tracking over a defined window. The full parameter list and update cadence live on the methodology page — that page is the source of truth if anything here is shortened.

High level:

  • We use signals we can measure from partner feeds and our own snapshots (for example presence and audience-related stats where available).
  • Scores are relative within the set we compute, not a universal “quality” grade.
  • Methodology can change; we date material updates on the methodology page.

What TrendScore is not

  • Not a promise of earnings, safety or show style.
  • Not an editorial award list — we avoid superlative ranking wording in titles and hubs for that reason.
  • Not the same as Recommended sort on listing grids. Recommended, when enabled, is a separate, disclosed ordering that may include affiliate performance; see the methodology #recommended section and on-page disclosures.

Trending, Rising and the live grid

  • Trending — ordered by TrendScore, live and offline models together (scoped lists such as language or time window will sit under /trending/… when those pages are live).
  • Rising — live models ordered by momentum: their hours online in the last seven days compared with the seven before. It is one input of TrendScore shown on its own, not a substitute for it.
  • Stats — aggregate pictures, not a substitute for the full methodology.
  • Live grids — who’s online now; sort options are labelled in the UI.

How to use this as a viewer

Use Trending to discover names you might not see on the first page of a single cam site. Then open the CamTrends profile for schedule-style facts we compute, and continue to the cam site for the show itself.
