OnlyFans is a social media platform that lets you earn money through subscriptions. You create content for your fans, and your fans pay to see it.
Of course, it’s easier said than done. Making money off of OnlyFans is a challenge, especially with the sheer amount of creators on the platform.
The following tips will help you boost your OnlyFans presence and gain more followers. Check them out.
Identify Your Fans
You need to know who’s watching you. Your target audience, or “fans,” can be different people with the same interests. They may be gym buffs, foodies, beauty enthusiasts, etc.
Once you have identified your target audience, make sure that your profile — from the description to the header to the content– connects with these fans. More OnlyFans tips below.
Create a Good Header and Description
The first thing your fans will see on your profile is your header. Use a high-quality photo that shows what your fans can expect from your profile.
If you do NSFW (not safe for work) content, note that full-frontal nudity is forbidden in headers.
Meanwhile, your OnlyFans description is your best chance to sell your content to subscribers. Why should they choose you over another creator? What offers can they get from you? Write an enticing description and capture their attention.
Share Previews and Snippets
Share sneak previews on other platforms before launching your main content. If you have Instagram or Twitter, you can share behind-the-scene images, teasers, or trailers.
If you do NSFW content, Twitter is your best option. It’s less restrictive when it comes to adult content. Meanwhile, Instagram is best for candid shots and videos.
Remember to use relevant hashtags so you can bring the preview right where your audience is. Tag relevant people, too, if you collaborate with others.
Know Your Fans’ Common Requests
Fan requests are common. If you get similar requests from various fans and followers, make a note of it. There’s likely a high demand for such requests or content.
And when you create said request, share a sneak preview on social media. Encourage them to subscribe to your OnlyFans account to view the full version.
Invest in Tools
Keep your content interesting by investing in the right tools. Buy ring lights, high-quality cameras, noise-canceling microphones, cooking equipment, and more.
Some of the tools may seldom be used, while others will prove to be indispensable. Whichever tool you need, invest in the best ones to encourage your audience to subscribe to your content.
Offer Discounts
Your audience loves discounts. You can gain more followers by decreasing your monthly subscription price by a certain percentage. Run promotional discounts for special holidays like Christmas, or offer discounts every payday.
Be careful, though. Offering too many discounts too often may not sit well with your fans who have paid the full price. Gaining new subscribers and retaining existing ones are equally important.
Promote Other Profiles
Many times, competing with other creators isn’t the wisest decision. Social media works in mysterious ways. Often, it’s better to collaborate with other creators.
It can be as easy as a simple retweet or a mention on Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram. It’s not a zero-sum game: both you and the profile you promote can gain more followers.
Also, fans love crossovers and collaboration, whether they’re in movies, TV series, or OnlyFans content, so do that with other creators, too.
Create Great Content
Nothing beats fresh and great content. Subscribers are after your content, and you must give it to them.
If you promise fresh weekly updates, do that and more. Add value to your content by personalizing them. Make sure you don’t miss a beat, offer something new, and make it relevant to what your audience want. After all, content is king.
I’ve started using crosscollab.co to find other profiles to promote and that has helped me a ton to collaborate with people with the same vibe as me.
