How to manage 25k growing subreddit going forward to maximize potential earnings?

Hello, I have been growing a nsfw subreddit on reddit for a little while now. I post pretty regularly and moderate the sub to remove ads or posts that don’t fit the page. Others have started to post in the sub, including some random OF models.

So first, how can I continue to grow the page organically from 25k to 100k to 1mil? And second, what is my best route for earning passive income? I am a complete noob with affiliate links or creating a website, but would be down to learn.


Happy to share the name of my subreddit if you want to know. I just hesitate to post it in case that’s against the rules!
