What is onlyfans?
Onlyfans is an online platform that allows creators to get paid for in a subscription model, it is similar to Patreon with one of the major diferences being that you can post adult content and basically anything you want! It is worth mentioning that onlyfans is not just for nudes and adult content, there are people who have a great sub count just by posting pictures of themselves fully dressed, cooking, sharing all kind of content, since the route I decided to follow the route of posting adult content, that is what I will focus on.
Is Onlyfans morally wrong?
The short answe is "No". Let me elaborate, You are the owner of your body, as long the decision to show it off is yours and only yours, there is nothing wrong with it! Bodies come in different forms ans shapes, feel proud of showing it!
We see underwear models all the time in all forms of visual media, even singers and influencers who post in underwear and even naked in adult magazines, is there something wrong with that? People who critize this type of content are the ones who consume it the most, you body is not something to be proud of, feel empowered to show it off if that is what you want, It does not rest any value from you as a person.
How do I make money with Onlyfans ?
Now going to the important. Onlyfans offers to kind of susbcription methods, free subscription and paid subscription, If you are trying to make money, the free option may not be the best idea; however, you can lock post as pay per view with this option, I wouldn't recommend it though since most of your subscribers will be looking for free content, they may not be willing to paid; the paid method is the option I recommend, you can set a price for a monthly subscription, the minimun is $4.99, you can set the price higher but I wouldn't recommend going to high at the beginning, I set my price for $6.99. We as humans are conditioned to believe that the higher the price, the better the quality, so it may not be the best idea going for the cheapest price either.
Pay per view content
Although, pay per view post can only be set by using the free method, you can still send pay per view photos and videos via direct message, you only have to go to the message section, select the recipients and there is an option with a pricetag icon that says "Paid message" you can select which part of the message is free and which one is pay per view, the minimun price is $3, it is up to you how much you charge depending the quality of the content, the way to go would be, leaving the text free so you can say something like "Hey guys, I just uploaded this hot video doing ****** I hope you enjoy it" Some people may not be on top of their messages, something that you can do is post a blurred picture and if it is a video, post a 5 seconds teaser with a caption like "I just send you the uncensored version via DM, please check it out" this will make people aware that there is extra premiun content they can purchase.
Another way is to accept personalized requests, leave in your profile description that you accept requests and you can charge even more becuase it is for one person, remember to always discuss the price before hand, you don't want to be creating content that nobody will pay for.
Tipping system
Onlyfans allows subscribers to leave tips, that is completely up to your subscribers; however, if you are posting quality content, don't be afraid to include in your caption something like "If you like the content I'm sharing, please consider leaving a tip"
Other methods
There are other ways, going back to the pay per view method, there are some users that want to do sexting and even d**k rate, you can use the paid message system for this, just remember to include it in you profile description to prevent misunderstandings.
How to get subs
Unfornately Onlyfans does not have a discovery system that allow potencial subscribers to find you, you have to do your own promotion, there are many ways to do this by using social media, adult sites and even dating apps.
Promoting on social media
Promoting on social media can be difficult, specially if you don't want to use your personal profiles for privicy concerns, I started different accounts with my stage name, although it is more safe that using your personal accounts, remember that your face will be out there, you can always use only body shots, but it will not be as succesful as showing your face, some girls have told me that they have blocked family and friends, their friends and basically anybody who can make a connection of who they are, even though this can be really beneficial, it is time consuming, it is up to you if you want to try it.
What social media can I use?
There are many platforms you can use for this, the one that is the best since it allows adult content is Twitter, search for other onlyfans models to see which hashtags they are using, try different hash tags to see what works for you! you can also use Instagram, be careful when using it though, explicit content will be deleted and they may even delete your account altogether, you can leave you link in your bio but do not leave it in your captions, do not post something that says "Join my onlyfans" or things like that, Instagram will delete those posts (Trust me, I made that mistake) just include something like "For more content, link in the bio" I have not had any problems with that, remember always using relevant hashtags, remember hashtags are your best friends when it comes to make your content dicoverable. There are other social media that you can use like Facebook and Tumblr, although they are not as good as the aforementioned. One that you should avoid is Snapchats, It hates onlyfans and they will delete your account right away, so don't bother.
Avoiding social media scams
This is something that is actully important but nobody talks about. When posting on Twitter and Instagram, you will receive a lot of followers that are just trying to scam you, telling you that they have networks with thousands if not millions of subscribers, they will even send you the links for the accounts they use, if you check them out, a lot of them have been closed, their posts berely have likes and most of their followers are fake, do not fall for that! they can make their offers really attractive, there may be some legit promoters but i have not found any yet. Another method they use, you will receive direct messages from other people who have only fans, they will ask you to do a "Shoutout X Shoutout" That's fine it is a way to get followers, the problem comes afterwards, once you post their profile in your stories and they do the same, they will ask you how your Onlyfans is going and they will redirect you to the promotion account they are using that supposedly have help them to get hundreds of subscribers in no time, again, do not trust them! after receiving so many of this "good samaritans" trying to help you grow your sub count, I noticed at least 5 different scripts they use, so just stay with the "Shoutout x Shoutout" and tell them that you are doing fine and your Onlyfans is doing better than ever.
Using dating sites/apps
This is really straight fordwar, just create a profile, upload some pictures and leave your link in there, if you use tinder or a tinder like site/app, swipe right like nobody's business, be aware that this may be a violation to their terms and conditions and your profile could be deleted, but not a big lose there right? losing a social media account would be worse.
Adult sites
Adult sites can be a powerful tool but you should not putting your content anywhere, one that I would recommend is Pornhub, after some privicy issues and having problems with people uploading content that they are not allowed to, they deleted most of their libary and implemented a good verification system that assures, people will only upload content they own. You can just upload some pictures and teaser videos and then leave your Onlyfans links to redirect your traffic. They offer you the feature for geoblocking in case you are concern withe people around you finding you there and download blocking to make sure your content stays there!
You can also use Chaturbate This is mostly for live webcam; however, you can upload your content and leave your Onlyfans link in the bios, this site may not be as secure as Pornhub but they do have a verification system and they offer geolocation as well, if you are located in the US you can also block individual states; Why not make some extra money by doing a live show from time to time too?
Is there another method?
There are other methods to promote your Onlyfans, but not many worth mentioning, one that some people have reported as a good option is Reddit, you will have to post some pictures and leave your link, there are subreddits dedicated to onlyfans but you won't have much success there, they mostly have poeple promoting their Onlyfans, you will have to go to the NSFW subreddits dedicated to adult content.
How to retain subscribers
Keep in mind that people are paying to see your content, so you have to be consisten, wether you upload everyday or 2,34 or 5 times a week, be consisten, create a schedule and if possible leave in your profile what days you will be posting, something I do is, I do a photoshot on weekends and I set schedule posts, so just in case, my content will be always up on time, people are paying for a service after all and they expect to receive what they are paying for.
Keep you audience engage via chat, people will talk to you, remember to always reply in a timely manner, would you keep a service if you are being ignored? so take your time to check your chat and talk to them.
In conclusion, Onlyfans can be a powerful tool to make money, I won't promise that you will make thousands in a few weeks, It requires hard work and consistensy, but if you are willing to put on the hard work, you can really make a good income.
Payments
Probably one of your biggest concern is how you will get paid, Onlyfans may offer different ways depending on where you are, Bank transfers is one that many people use, but if you don't want to go over the hassle and you are afraid of leaving your banking information, you can also use Paxum, they are also offer bank transfer and after receiving your first payment, you get the option to request a Paxum debit card which you can use in any ATM or store where VISA is accepted.
