View Full Version : OnlyFans. Earn $$$$$ from your Twitter content

Probably because everyone and their dog knows onlyfans now, but MV crush is a bit less well known. Also don't they pay out less?
I'm interested to know actually if it would be worth setting up on mv crush and if the inbuilt traffic will be enough as I won't promote it at all?
MVCrush is 90% for the first year, 80% after. I dont really promote mine and have had 4 subscriptions - all people who buy videos from me

Do you guys have first hand/reliable info about chargebacks?
(I'm saying that because I have seen false information on another forum, namely that "deleted user" supposedly will get subtracted from your earnings, no it will not, not in my experience, so I'm wondering if anyone has experience?)
Some genius has decided that his custom video request was supposed to be exclusive only for his eyes which he of course forgot to mention to me (and I barely charged the market average for a custom that includes saying the customers name)
Idk, this site might be the new "industry standard" but it's just bad news ��

And it was so difficult to record, that night it was announced all international travel will be shut down (my closest relative relies on tourism income, so I don't remember another time when it was this difficult to focus on work but I did and I was actually quite satisfied with the result) but no, you see, it was supposed to be only seen by him :( I'm ranting

Hi Everyone,
I'm fairly new here though have been lurking on the forum for a while. It's so refreshing to see a community of ladies (and perhaps some gents) where everyone supports each other and understands what the others are going through. A place to ask questions we all want answered and won't be judged for. Now apologies if this has already been mentioned, and feel free to direct me.
I started an only fans experimentally as I'd seen a few cam models who'd made it into a huge success on tiktok. Now I know that the best way to get followers is through twitter. Tik tok and other platforms kind of work but you need a big fanbase. Now I saw in researching this girls say that the best way to get followers is through your cam following. I was wondering is there any safe or ok way to mention or show your twitter account name if not your onlyfans whilst camming?
P.s. I dmed onlyfans some of my other questions, they never got back to me

Depends on what site you are on. Might get away with it on MFC but Streamate will ban you for that.
Streamate recently got more strict on it too so I don't think its worth losing your account over. Hopefully some of the high OnlyFans earners can chime in with some tips how to grow it more.

Thank you sooo so much for warning me about this and getting back to me so quickly! Do you reckon you could get away with it on Chaturbate or Camsoda? Don't have a big following on there. If you did it in the past kind of accidentally but they didn't catch you straight away, then you're safe right? Can't prove that you said anything.

Can anyone please help clarify something about thumbnails on onlyfans videos? Someone I subscribe to on onlyfans has a free account where people pay to unlock videos. Some videos show up as just a grey lock screen and a description of the content, and other videos have a photo thumbnail from the video. When I post pay per view videos on my free account they all show up as a grey unlock box. Does anyone know how to ad a preview pick to the unlock box?

I went to request a payment and now it's telling me that my banking info is incomplete AND my id is expired? I have entered this info numerous times now and I've gotten payments before.
this has happened to me a few times but they do fix it
last week i woke up to zero on current balance and pending balance. the one week i didnt pull out everyday but immediately fixed and everything added up correct
Wait a minute, I have confusion! This site is not acting right and I don't like doing business this way. 5 or 6 days ago I was asked to resubmit my ID's. I got that sorted. And then I was asked to fill out the w9 form...again. So I did it again. This is all happening right after I made a payment request. And THEN after going through all of that on the next day I got a little pop-up box telling me I violated the terms of service. And notice how the message to verify my banking details are back?
http://www.camhustlers.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/Screenshot_20200320-183604-01-e1585236703282.jpeg
What was the violation? It doesn't say nor did it send me an email with the details. But the confusion doesn't end here. My balance is still showing as zero and nothing is pending. And just when I'm about to lose my last marble LMAO I got another pop-up to let me know that my pay out options have been upgraded. Again no email explaining what that even means? So now I still haven't received my money and it looks as if new money is being withdrawn and sent to me instantly with no minimum set? I had a new sign up netting me $7.99 and in an emailed response to all this confusion OF said this was sent in a direct deposit as well. Why was it sent? I didn't request it or is this the new upgraded payment option?

From what I understand it does not show a preview pic if your account is set to adult content. I set mine to adult and all they see is a grey box, not even the text so it's not that enticing.
I see so many who have previews and the content is obviously adult so they have their account set to nonadult so that it shows up. It's so annoying that they are not made to mark theirs correctly and I feel it's unfair to those of us who are following the rules and marking our accounts as adult.

Ah gotcha, I didn't consider that people were setting theirs to non adult. I think I have seen what you're talking about before but I think what I'm seeing is something different. I went back and studied it some more and I think I figured out how to post a still frame pic as a thumbnail for locked videos. Other creators locked post show they uploaded both a pic and video, so what I believe they did was they upload a still frame image as teaser pic and then uploaded the corresponding video but only put the price to unlock on the video. That way the post shows the stillframe publicly but then you unlock the paid video that's on the same post.

Well what if you are a newbie at it with no following & start just taking subscriptions from your twitter adds? Like hustle them once they start asking for nudes & vids? I mean you gotta start somewhere right? I don't really have much of a cam following since I didn't really work on major box sites much, I was more of a text/phone gal, but I'm sure if they saw my model name or even thought I was hot, they'd wanna add me which would sorta be a start up following, ya?

Start with a site that has traffic built into it. Find a niche that appeals to you and then focus on creating clips. Then start uploading regularly. Selling individual downloads is lucrative money and a great way to build a clientele. You could start making money right now on a clipsite. A fan club takes time. Creating one without customers/followers is like opening a store on a dead end street that has a road block. They don't know you're there.
The thing is if you don't already have customers lined up, you may be at risk of giving too much away for next to nothing. Let's say you do manage to talk two guys into signing up at 9.99 a month. You have maybe 5-10 videos, 10 nudes and 5 erotic recordings. Those two customers get to enjoy ALL of that for an entire month and all you get in return is $16. For the next month you got one more sign up but the first two decided not to rebill. Now you're down to one customer who got to see all the old stuff plus the new content you just uploaded. It's been a month and you've only earned $24. You would make more on a clipsite because they already have customers and many are willing to spend 9.99 or more for just one clip. Fan clubs are sorta like crowd funding.

Ah ok that makes more sense :) Thank you for breaking it down for me bc I honestly thought OF was just a way for anyone to create & post stuff from a twitter or IG. I don't have a social media for cam life which is why I never pursued it. I'll look into clip sales then <3

I discovered how to use OBS last night. Never before had I clicked that last option to find the streaming keys. Now if only the go live feature worked all the time.
Finally got granted the go live feature and it defaults to my crappy webcam if I do it from the browser. I can transmit with OBS but nobody seems to see me and it doesn't record the session.
Is there a tutorial somewhere I'm missing?

You can disable your built in cam and then use your plug in one :)
1. Right-click on the Start button and click on Device Manager in the menu that appears.
2. On the Device Manager screen, expand the entry for Cameras or Imaging Devices.
3. Next, right-click on Integrated Webcam and click on Disable in contextual menu that appears.
4. On the Confirmation pop-up, click on Yes to confirm your action.
5. Restart your computer.

Woah I can't thank you enough for your detailed reply itsnightlight here is my dilemma, I have over 30 subscribers paying 14.99 a month and I'm in the top 20% the kicker is most of my subscribers are from my local club (social distancing but still want to see me) I'm throwing up content everyday but once we get back to normal life they can see me in person and I don't know if most will stay subscribed. I love your whole layout of your free onlyfans, you've given me a lot to think about. I'm not sure if my guys will understand since I had to navigate them around the paid one. I could bump it down to 9.99 and upload less when we open back up and keep it for my local guys and then make the free one and promote it hard online?

I have a free OF and I love having it. I started it originally because I was sick and tired of IG and Twitter deleting things that were "content inappropriate" aka nude pictures with censors over them which I can now use as FREE content for my OF followers to see. Yall know which ones I mean. The ones where you'll put a star over the nipples or your ass looks just right in a thong? Those types of pictures are allowed on Free OF but banned from IG. I love being able to post and speak my mind. I put the naughty uncensored ones behind a paid wall and some of my followers like to buy them. I do the same with videos too- one post I'll put a teaser/trailer/screenshots then the next post is an entire video behind a paid wall. Since people have seen the censored, they want to see it uncensored. So they will pay for the photo/video if they like it, otherwise they will enjoy the free screenshots/trailer they were given.
Best thing about Free Onlyfans is the PPV Messaging: If people want to message me they have to pay for it. I know some of you complain about rude people demanding more clips and videos and free stuff, well you don't get that in PPV. I barely get PPVs and I like it that way because I don't have to deal with freeloaders and the people who pay $5 per message are polite especially since they are investing money into it. I treat it like a PM and follow them free so they can write back freely which makes them feel very good since they don't have to pay per message and they are willing to usually spend money on other things (more expensive things) since the message barrier is TEMPORARILY (24hr only) off. I only deal and talk to people who have money they want to spend on me. Time wasters and assholes are NEVER in my box. How can they be, if they have to pay to message me in the first place? :) Some freeloadies have followed me on OFand complained to me via twitter and IG message about not being able to message me without the paywall showing up oh well. I am here to have fun and make money. If it ain't both it ain't worth it baby.
If they buy a certain number of photos/videos (usually $25 or more) I'll give them unlimited PM access for the next 30 days plus a uncensored picture/ 15 second video clip of the next paid wall photoset/video I post a few days before I post it publically for sale. It makes the custie feel rewarded for their love, gives them more time to engage with me emotionally which leads to them buying new content or tipping, and they also get to see sexy content that they already bought. Plus i make more money. When talking to them I usually ask how they liked the video and what content they want to see. I pull a Mark Zukerberg and get their data for free (do they like pawgs? stockings? food fetish?) so that when I do free posts or paid ones or collabs I can make more of the content they want to buy and look at. One guy who followed me told me in a comment on one of my posts that he liked seeing me in black stockings. I posted (one) picture of myself in black stockings and said "shoutout to the user who was awesome" etc. He ended up buying one of my photosets. Follower feels special, buys content, stays subscribed. Other followers see how special I treat him and are more willing to give suggestions to what they want to see and possibly buy content as well. They too will stay subscribed because I'm showing love and my page is free. Everyone wins.
Allow me to explain why this works for me as a person with a small following (less than 900 followers on twitter). This may not work for everyone, but it works for me:
Scenario 1: I have a lesbian video up that is priced at $25. Since my account is free and anyone with an account can follow, they can see a free teaser or a free picture that I post but I put the $25 video behind a paid wall. I have 100 followers on my free OF (because people loooove free stuff) so 100 people will see the advertisement for the video. Let's say 5 of them buy it. That's $125 I make off one video. Since more and more people will follow since it's a free account, it will give more exposure for advertising the sex tape and leaving me to make $25 off each person who decides to buy it. I don't have to convince or upsell or talk to people individually to buy it and appeal to what they want. It's there and it's done and it's visible so that in the future if some of the other people want to buy it they can. I can pin it to the top of the page (my current and best and most expensive product) and I can continue posting my content as I usually would or asking questions.

Scenario 2: Let's say I have an onlyfans account that is $5.99 per month to access and I have 10 subscribers which for some of us we gotta convince them into it. Since they are already paying a subscription they usually would expect that sort of content for free. That's about $60 per month and 10 people who saw the full vid v. the $125 I made off of the ONE video that only 5 people saw. I made more money and less people seeing= less chance of dealing with a jerk who might hijack my content. I can always sell the video via private message to followers but it would take a lot more time and effort convincing them. Plus since they are already paying to see content, they may feel like they are getting drained at the wallet and unsubscribe eventually making a loss in my profit. I would have the option of posting the video on the OF private account (waste of money since everyone would be able to see/no pay wall) or trying to convince the 10 subscribers to buy the video and then if they do take a few hours to upload an hour long amount of content into one message (waste of time). If I get all 10 of them to buy the video, that's $250. But that's the most ideal situation and still costs tons of energy and time plus risk if i rub people the wrong way. If I only get 5 people to buy the video I'll still make $125. But what saved me more money and time, made my members feel rewarded instead of drained, and didn't risk me losing any subscribers? Option #1. Also if you wanted to resell the video in the future you would have to keep track of who is a new subscriber and who is not and who you sent the message to. You may be making new content and totally forget about the video whereas having it behind a paid wall (and pinned to your post) makes it easier for new subscribers to see and decide if it's something they want to invest in while you continue making content and focusing on the future.
Since I'm pretty small on social media and on cam, it can be harder for me to get followers who want to invest money into a membership site right off the bat. If they see something is FREE they follow and will stay followed since they don't have to pay. That gives more exposure and possible sales to paid wall content because they already like the free content they see. Even if some of them are freeloaders, so what? It boosts the validity of the product to potential followers/buyers (people would rather follow an account with 100 followers v 10 followers) and they can't message me on the platform without paying up or commenting in the public section where everyone else can see (public engagement with a fan, which is a plus to subscribers). More exposure and followers is better for me.
All those naughty pics that got deleted from IG? Post it as free content. It would have been free anyways, since it was posted on IG, a public and free platform.
All those pay to watch videos you post on C4S, Manyvids, iWantClips, etc? Post behind a paid wall.
Not sure if this helps since it doesn't exactly answer the question. This post is mostly to praise free accounts and why you may want to consider getting one. Hope you're doing well!
Edit: Another good thing about having a free account is that there is no obligation to keep it up. When you run a paid account your followers depend on you to upload and release new content every month. If I decide to stop posting for a month or two, no one suffers because my account was free anyways. There's lots of custies who do the monthly sub and then complain that there's not enough content uploaded every month from the model which is why some of them unsubscribe. Meanwhile the model is pulling her hair out trying to balance her life and issues irl while making constant content. With a free account, people can stay subscribed to you as long as they want without penalty and there is no loss on your end or their end if you decide to take a break for a month or two. And if someone really bitches and complains about the lack of content on your free page, you can remind them that the account is FREE and not to look a gift horse in the mouth.
Mine still buy ppv's, contribute to my goals and buy upsells like messaging etc even at a price point of $15 per month. But i don't post all my content up there, instead i post short teasers, all of my free content, and once a month they get a free full video (never more than 10 mins) and a free full audio. I love your detailed walk through and there's a lot i can take from that (thanks). But yeah don't feel like you CAN'T also do this with a paid OF.

I have a free OF and I love having it. I started it originally because I was sick and tired of IG and Twitter deleting things that were "content inappropriate" aka nude pictures with censors over them which I can now use as FREE content for my OF followers to see. Yall know which ones I mean. The ones where you'll put a star over the nipples or your ass looks just right in a thong? Those types of pictures are allowed on Free OF but banned from IG. I love being able to post and speak my mind. I put the naughty uncensored ones behind a paid wall and some of my followers like to buy them. I do the same with videos too- one post I'll put a teaser/trailer/screenshots then the next post is an entire video behind a paid wall. Since people have seen the censored, they want to see it uncensored. So they will pay for the photo/video if they like it, otherwise they will enjoy the free screenshots/trailer they were given.
Best thing about Free Onlyfans is the PPV Messaging: If people want to message me they have to pay for it. I know some of you complain about rude people demanding more clips and videos and free stuff, well you don't get that in PPV. I barely get PPVs and I like it that way because I don't have to deal with freeloaders and the people who pay $5 per message are polite especially since they are investing money into it. I treat it like a PM and follow them free so they can write back freely which makes them feel very good since they don't have to pay per message and they are willing to usually spend money on other things (more expensive things) since the message barrier is TEMPORARILY (24hr only) off. I only deal and talk to people who have money they want to spend on me. Time wasters and assholes are NEVER in my box. How can they be, if they have to pay to message me in the first place? :) Some freeloadies have followed me on OFand complained to me via twitter and IG message about not being able to message me without the paywall showing up oh well. I am here to have fun and make money. If it ain't both it ain't worth it baby.
If they buy a certain number of photos/videos (usually $25 or more) I'll give them unlimited PM access for the next 30 days plus a uncensored picture/ 15 second video clip of the next paid wall photoset/video I post a few days before I post it publically for sale. It makes the custie feel rewarded for their love, gives them more time to engage with me emotionally which leads to them buying new content or tipping, and they also get to see sexy content that they already bought. Plus i make more money. When talking to them I usually ask how they liked the video and what content they want to see. I pull a Mark Zukerberg and get their data for free (do they like pawgs? stockings? food fetish?) so that when I do free posts or paid ones or collabs I can make more of the content they want to buy and look at. One guy who followed me told me in a comment on one of my posts that he liked seeing me in black stockings. I posted (one) picture of myself in black stockings and said "shoutout to the user who was awesome" etc. He ended up buying one of my photosets. Follower feels special, buys content, stays subscribed. Other followers see how special I treat him and are more willing to give suggestions to what they want to see and possibly buy content as well. They too will stay subscribed because I'm showing love and my page is free. Everyone wins.
Allow me to explain why this works for me as a person with a small following (less than 900 followers on twitter). This may not work for everyone, but it works for me:
Scenario 1: I have a lesbian video up that is priced at $25. Since my account is free and anyone with an account can follow, they can see a free teaser or a free picture that I post but I put the $25 video behind a paid wall. I have 100 followers on my free OF (because people loooove free stuff) so 100 people will see the advertisement for the video. Let's say 5 of them buy it. That's $125 I make off one video. Since more and more people will follow since it's a free account, it will give more exposure for advertising the sex tape and leaving me to make $25 off each person who decides to buy it. I don't have to convince or upsell or talk to people individually to buy it and appeal to what they want. It's there and it's done and it's visible so that in the future if some of the other people want to buy it they can. I can pin it to the top of the page (my current and best and most expensive product) and I can continue posting my content as I usually would or asking questions.

Im planning on launching my OF in may and been really stuck between doing a free or paid one - part of my issue is my internet is shit so I cant really be posting videos (long ones) all the time - and so would really rather be more photo based than video (obviously some videos still tho). I was leaning to doing a paid one and sorting a free one once my internet is sorted & I can upload more PPV's and custom videos for people that they tip for - this post is making me reconsider that tho! not sure what way to do it now lol
edit: another thing Im confused on - the whole no nudity not behind a pay wall - how strict is that? are underwear photos ok? what about nips?
