One of the seismic shifts in the landscape of adult entertainment in recent years has been the emergence of the fan-subscription platforms.
There’s a range of different fan-subscription platforms out there, but the big player in the market is OnlyFans.
Why Use OnlyFans to Find XXX Gay Porn?
A fan-subscription platform such as OnlyFans creates a direct relationship between the performer and the audience. The performer creates the content, publishes it to the platform, and you reward the performer by subscribing to their content-feed.
This removes the gatekeeping role that has traditionally been played by gay xxx porn studios.
The result has been the democratisation and – as Squirt Studios star Jordan Jameson has written – diversification of who can be a porn-star.
As an audience member, not only does this enable you to build a direct connection to your favourite content creators – who are more likely to respond to your messages if you’re one of their subscribers – but you can also request bespoke content that delivers exactly the kind of fantasies that you’re looking to explore.
How Do I Start a Gay OnlyFans?
1. Define your brand
The fan-subscription business is competitive and it takes a lot of work in order to be successful. Try approaching it with a marketing perspective – what makes you interesting? Why might people want to subscribe to the content that you’re creating? How do you ensure that the people who might be into your content know that you exist?
2. Set up your account
As well as all the basics of providing the information required in order to be able to run a fan-subscription account, make sure that you understand the terms and conditions that you’re signing up to.
With a site such as OnlyFans, there’s a surprising range of things that you aren’t able to include in your content. It’s important that you don’t inadvertently breach the terms and conditions as you could easily have your account terminated.
Having the right equipment and knowing how to produce your content is also an important first step. Look into the best gay OnlyFans camera equipment that you need, and also check out our article on how to enhance your homemade gay porn.
3. Determine your pricing
Pricing is not a one-size-fits-all approach. A good starting point is to look at other content creators for a ballpark. There’s no point pricing yourself out of the market before you get started.
Creators will often offer a basic subscription level but then have options such as premium videos or services that can also be purchased.
Platforms such as OnlyFans also enable you to run discounts and promotions.
Your fan-subscription channel is a business and to get the best results you need to run it like a business.
How Much Do Gay OnlyFans Creators Make?
There are plenty of successful content creators out there who have made big money by giving their subscribers what they want.
However, you have to manage your expectations. The big money earners have big audiences and are leveraging their social media presence. If you’re starting from scratch, you are not going to see that kind of success overnight.
Subscriber churn is also a feature of the fan-subscription format. Someone may subscribe to you for a month, check out what you’re offering and then move onto someone else. Most content creators report high levels of subscriber churn. That means that you’re always working hard to both retain your existing subscribers but also attract new subscribers to your channel.
4. Promote your account
A fan-subscription platform such as OnlyFans doesn’t do any promotion for its content creators. That’s all down to you.
You have to use every tool available to you to build your brand, to build awareness of your content, and to showcase your personality so that people want to see more of what you’ve got to offer.
Social media is the obvious starting point – you’re going to want to have a presence on every available social media platform, but you’ll find that you need to tailor your social media posts to suit the platform. For example, what you post on TikTok is going to be different to what you post on Twitter/X – that all takes time and effort.
Collaborations with other content creators is an important part of your promotional strategy. Not only are collaborations a great way to generate some content, but they help to put you in front of people who are likely to be your target market.
5. Engage with your audience and keep creating content
Content creators will generally put a lot of effort into audience engagement – it’s an important part of subscriber retention. This means responding to messages, hosting Q&A sessions, doing whatever it takes to build a relationship, a sense of community, and encouraging your subscribers to stick around and continue supporting your work.
