Ever thought about marketing your OnlyFans on Reddit?

Maybe you’ve seen successful creators who say they get most of their subs from Reddit and you’re wondering how on earth this is even possible when you can barely understand what’s going on? Well, it’s not easy, but after a month or two of using Reddit you’ll wonder how you ever went without it. Especially since so many buyers come from reddit and you really can get most of your business from there. We explored an OnlyFans Subreddit called: r/howtopromoteonlyfans. It was created by some people who run marketing groups on Facebook and overall it’s considered one of the best marketing related subreddits dedicated to OnlyFans marketing. Most of their material is related to reddit promo.

Yes, that’s right, this reddit community also has a website. And wait, because it get even better, the website itself is integrated with Reddit / so you can login with your reddit account and comment and participate. This is literally genius and I thought it was better than most of the other resources that I could find regarding reddit promotions.

Here’s what I learned about how to promote OnlyFans on Reddit:

  • Some of the OnlyFans groups on Reddit have 100k+ subscribers!
  • Marketing in smaller niche groups sometimes gives the best results!
  • Market in relevant NSFW groups (not just OnlyFans groups)
  • It’s important to pay attention to the best times and places to post.
  • Writing catchy headlines will get you more upvotes & comments.

I discovered there’s so much more to learn about reddit than what most people get into. Most people posting to Reddit are looking like spammers, posting the same pic to as many groups as possible. That’s not the right game. You can get much more out of Reddit marketing when you start to understand how to optimize every post, do it at the right time, with a headline catering to that subreddit and maybe even boost your post with some upvotes and comments from your friends.

The end goal is to get the most out of every post. Not to post as many posts as possible that get lost somewhere in the abyss like everyone else out there is doing. If you want to succeed you have to do something different than what they’re doing. You can’t be copying all of the failures!

Why is reddit so good for finding potential buyers?

Reddit is a small, untapped gold mine for advertisers. There are thousands of niche groups on Reddit called subreddits. This allows potential readers to connect directly with you and if your message reaches the top, you benefit from a boost of exposure to your posts!

THE CHALLENGE

The problem is that most of the subreddits cannot be promoted in directly by yourself. This is probably a gray area because people are already doing it. But the Reddit community is an incredible audience that filters most of these messages. Marketers are forced to tread lightly…

The question is: how do you advertise on Reddit?

The key is to do it discretely and realize that potential customers will find you by searching through your bio and looking for your link. It happens much more than you think. People are willing to put in effort to pursue something they’re interested in and if you put yourself out there in the right communities you’ll find interest. This means putting your OnlyFans link in a post on your bio page and pinning it. You can also put your link in the bio itself, but this won’t be clickable. Usually it’s enough to post an image or video with a link in the comments. If it’s acceptable post your link tree in comments or even your OnlyFans link directly if they allow it.

Follow the rules of every subreddit that you’re posting to. Which is another reason mass spamming your doesn’t work well because you’re likely to face some bans if your title or content goes against their rules for promotion. Some groups won’t even let you post if you have an OnlyFans link in your bio, but of course they can’t do anything about if you have a pinned post on your bio page that links to your page. There are some super strict groups that don’t let OnlyFans creators post in them and some of them are the great for getting followers and subs initially but after you go pro and create your OnlyFans you need to move on to other subs, that’s a part of the game. Don’t intentionally break the rules in subreddits or you could end up getting banned from them.

I’ll share some of my best Reddit promo secrets…

If you’re going to market your OF on Reddit I suggest you do two things.

First, get yourself a bio page by signing up at: https://onlyfans.bio.

They’re free, and it’s a great landing page that does a much better job at selling your subscription than the tiny little bio that OnlyFans gives you.

After making a bio page on Onlyfans.Bio you’ll be able to post a larger preview pic too which helps because the little thumbnail they see on OnlyFans is hard to recognize most of the time. It’s worth it to upgrade to the VIP and remove the links at the link to their site and the footer ad.

The other thing I suggest doing is getting an account at imgfan.com where you can upload your pics into a private gallery and get a share link for posting to reddit. This is the best image site to use because they keep your profile private unlike imggur which makes your entire gallery public (stop giving away so much for free!). Signup for Image Fan and save all your promo pics there for any of your marketing. If you follow the steps we’ve given you here you’ll have a great head start toward promoting your OnlyFans on Reddit. There is plenty more to learn, and like I said it will take a couple months to get familiar. Don’t be scared to try new things and explore further what the possibilities are for marketing OnlyFans on Reddit. If you want to learn more I suggest you check out:
