Keep reading to learn how to start your OnlyFans and improve your chances of becoming successful on the site, provided you are willing to put in the work.
Before even setting up your account, deciding what niche or niches you want to cater to when creating your content is important. There are hundreds of different niches you could choose from and plenty more that probably don’t even exist yet.
So, what is a niche? A niche is a specific market you target with your content, as it provides less competition and a higher chance of a payout. It is especially important to choose a niche for OnlyFans because many of the niches are oversaturated, but that does not mean it is impossible to sell content within them.
It just means you have to have something special that will make your target audience want to pay you for the content you produce. Below is a list of niches to help give you some ideas.
Once you have chosen your niche, it is time to move on with setting up your OnlyFans account and get it approved so you can begin uploading content.
Creating your OnlyFans account is a fairly simple process that takes a few moments to complete. You will need to enter your name, email address, and password to create the account, and Google Sign-in can be used to make the process easier.
Once that is complete, you will need to set up your profile picture, background image, the username (which will be in your user link), your display name, and finally, a short bio so everyone knows what type of content you are selling and things like that.
Alright, you have created your account and filled out the basic profile information; now it is time to set up as a creator to begin selling your content. To get verified as a creator, you will need to fill out your legal name and address, provide social media handles like Twitter or Instagram, and upload your Driver’s License or another form of ID. OnlyFans should verify your account after a day or two.
Once you are verified, set up your banking details so you can withdraw all the money you can make, and then you are almost ready to begin uploading your fantastic content to sell to the horny hordes of the Internet.
Here comes one of the most important choices to make when setting up your Only Fans. Do you want to be a pair or a free account? A free account does not mean you are providing your content for free. It means that with a paid account, people have to subscribe to your account and then have your content unlocked for them.
On the other hand, a free account is free to subscribe to, but users have to pay a certain price, typically a few dollars, to see each new post. If you are just starting out and not very well-known, it can be good to offer a subscription, as it allows you to grow larger. Once you have a solid fan base, you can decide if you want to switch to a free account.
When starting out, do not charge large amounts for your subscriptions, typically keeping them under $5. It will keep it cheap enough for people so you can start getting your name out there before raising it incrementally to see at what price people are no longer willing to purchase a subscription.
You can even offer discounts and promotions for a limited time to help entice people to subscribe to your content or purchase some of your images and videos. Use your discounts wisely, though, as you do not want to offer content for less than it is worth with nothing to show.
Finally, if you offer a subscription-based account, you will want to offer subscription bundles of 3, 6, or 12 months at a reduced price. It will help incentivize people to buy a longer subscription to your content making you more money.
Now is the moment you have been waiting for, finally uploading your first content. At this point, your profile and account should be fully set up, and all that is needed now is to add your content to your account, promote it, and rinse and repeat.
Your first post should be a short introduction with an image of you, which should be pinned to the top of your account, so newcomers know exactly what to expect. Once that is done, some free promotional content should be uploaded as a teaser for viewers so they can make the decision if they want to see more.
If you plan on providing explicit material, your promotional material should reflect that, teasing the viewers of the beauties that await them if they subscribe to your account. Once your preview images are set up and ready, it is time to regularly upload your new spicy content that is hidden behind the subscriber paywall.
Regularly uploading is important as it helps bring in new subscribers and keeps your old fans loyal and returning for your new content. Content = money, so the more content you produce, the higher your chances of making a nice income from OnlyFans.
Did you think you were done? Well, you are almost done starting up your OnlyFans, but now that you have content online, it is time to optimize your profile to help you get seen by as many people as possible so you can start making money.
There are four parts of your profile you will want to optimize after account creation:
Your profile photo should be a well-done image, which means no dark lighting and no selfies you took in the bathroom, one night when you were bored. It should be bright, show your face/body well, and put your best foot forward to capture the attention of those who land on your page.
Next is your cover photo, which should be done as well as your profile photo and be related to your content. It could be a promotional image or something of that nature, allowing you to promote your content before people even begin looking further into your page.
Final is your username and bio, both of which will be key in bringing in new subscribers. Your bio should be well-written and provide an overview of who you are and the content you offer, but it should remain playful and personal. Using emojis can be a great way to do this.
Your username should relate in some way to your content, or if you are fairly well-known, you can get away with using the name you are known by to help people find your account.
Finally, the final big step in starting your OnlyFans. Your account has been created and optimized, content is waiting for people to enjoy, and you are waiting for the money to roll in, except… hardly anyone is discovering your account and purchasing a subscription.
Well, that is because you need to work on promoting your content, and it will be a lot of work until you begin gaining traction and your content becomes more widely known. So, how do you bring in new subscribers?
Start by setting up a promotional Twitter account, a subreddit (if you wish), and a Reddit account, all dedicated to sharing your content. You can even create a Tik Tok account to promote your content, though that will be slightly more difficult due to Tik Tok and NSFW content. You should set up a Link Tree and place that in your bio, which can link to your Only Fans account.
Once you have created your promotional accounts, promote your content daily, push out new posts, create new content, share and interact with people, and work on growing your fan base. It will take some time and a lot of work, but it will be worth it when your OnlyFans starts to grow.
You have finally completed starting up your OnlyFans and are ready to work on growing it and earning a solid income from your content. It will take time, but remember to remain patient and persistent. If you enjoyed this article and found it to be helpful, be sure to check out some of our other articles!
