Starting onlyfans in 2025

OF is one of the top 80 most visited websites around the entire world, it has a huge market around. Being profitable or not depends on how you approach this huge niche.

There are tools around which provides services, search engines or social media for promoting models (CPL, RevShare or a fixed price), chatters, agencies, the models itself, the official affiliate system and more.

Investigate get a piece of the cake.

I think adult niche is never dead. Whenever you start it can still be profitable. Depend on how good you promoto and content quality

Its definitely over saturated, your earnings may be very low

I grew my first model to $6k in 2,5 months

Hello BHW, I am considering starting an onlyfans. Is it still profitable in 2025? I know the market is saturated but I figured with enough tricks you could still build a following. I know you must build your following outside of onlyfans if you ever hope to succeed. Anyone have any good links to resources where I could read more about this? Not looking to outsource the work but might pay for a couple tools if they’re worth it. Thanks a bunch!!

Yes Onlyfans can be very profitable with proper audience. However if you lack audience you should first ask yourself how are you going to bring the people to your page. Partnering with some some marketers with verifiable results could be the best first move if you lack the audience of your own. Good luck!

Why do you cling to onlyfans?
If you want to make money as an adult creator, the darknet is a better environment than the clearnet.
Recently, fan sites have been subject to stricter regulations due to credit card refusals, resulting in many creators' accounts being frozen. There have also been cases of fan sites themselves going bankrupt.
If you want to make money as an adult creator or purchase rare adult content, cryptocurrency payments are the norm.
You'll need to become familiar with payments using cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and privacy coins like Monero, Zcash, and Dash.
One secure content buying and selling platform I know of is Free Taboos. It requires no KYC and can only be accessed via the Tor Browser.
There are many platforms for buying or selling adult contents without KYC on Tor Browser.
Using the Tor Browser, users can enjoy a variety of adult content with strict privacy protections.

People who use crypto or Tor browsers is 0.001% or even less of the population. it is not economical to build on such. Additionally people who use such "no kyc" are often tech-minded people who are less likely to pay for content either way.

Fact is porn and Onlyfans all rely on regular and casual users.

"People who use crypto or Tor browsers is 0.001% or even less of the population." means there are business opportunities.

Using Tor Browser helps establish the practical application of cryptocurrencies.

Pornographic content on the dark web is safer than pornographic content on the clear net.

Google AdSense does not allow ads on pornographic content on the clear net.

As a result, operators of pornographic content on the clear net use a variety of ads to cover the costs of running their platforms. These ads can include support scams and phishing scams, as well as nuisance programs that consume large amounts of memory and cause numerous pop-ups.

Of course, when advertisers discover such behavior, they immediately remove such nuisances and scam ads.

On the other hand, ads for pornographic content on the dark web are generally limited to banners, so you can simply ignore them.

There is a pornographic content sales site on the dark web that has been operating for over five years and has continued to thrive. I cannot directly introduce this site here.

There is also a PPV-only site created after the UK's ridiculous online safety law came into effect. This site appeared in October 2025.

Adult content creators and those who enjoy adult content tend to dislike kyc.
Even in non-adult genres, there has been an explosion of people using the dark web to seek freedom of speech and expression.
Of course, those who belong to non-adult genres dislike KYC.

Since the UK's ridiculous online safety law came into effect, the number of VPN providers has increased, and the use of the dark web, known as Tor Browser, has exploded.

Onlyfans once completely banned pornographic content. The same is true for Tumblr.
This is because credit cards and banks have refused to process payments.
Creators and subscribers who try to use fan sites like OnlyFans, which once completely banned pornographic content, run the risk of not knowing when the ban will be lifted or when creators' accounts will be frozen.
Subscribers also risk having purchased content suddenly deleted.

In recent years, to reduce the risks mentioned above, an increasing number of creators are creating their own websites without using fan sites, instead using non-custodial payment services that are freely available to individuals and corporations.

I do not recommend using fan sites like OnlyFans as our primary platform.

There are many cases where fan sites have had their domains revoked or fan sites suddenly cease their service due to absurd regulatory tightening, so that some of fan sites sell their value-added domains and they obtain unfair profits.

To protect the interests of both creators and subscribers and ensure safe transactions, it is important to become familiar with cryptocurrency transactions.

I absolutely do not recommend making money primarily through onlyfans or other fan sites (fanvue, justforfans, fansmine, dfans, etc.).
This is because so many creators' accounts have been frozen. Of course, I also strongly discourage purchasing subscribers.
These fan sites can disappear at any time, and credit card companies frequently freeze payments.
The UK's ridiculous Online Safety Act is enacting an anti-pornography policy, so you never know when your fan site might disappear. It's best not to use fan sites or apps under the UK and EU to sell or store adult contents.
Your account will be banned and all contents will be deleted immediately.
After the UK's ridiculous Online Safety Act came into effect, the number of dark web users skyrocketed, leading to a surge in demand for privacy-focused cryptocurrencies like XMR, Zcash, and Dash.

The main reason for the anti-pornography policy is the prejudice that pornographic content encourages human trafficking.

In the country where I live, pornographic content and 2D shota/loli anime are popular, but human trafficking seldom happens.

Human trafficking frequently occurs in countries where slavery or serfdom was a prevalent system.

Furthermore, due to the hardship caused by rising prices since the coronavirus outbreak, people in such countries are committing crimes by suddenly abducting usual people walking around on the street and selling them for profit.

Human trafficking cannot be eliminated unless they curb rising prices and correct the distorted value system that treats people as commodities.
