This is my subjective distribution of adult platforms, from the most profitable to the abandoned. For now, the focus is on Online-like sites. There are no pure webcam or PH type video sites here.
Tier-1
The largest traffic and income of the model, brand awareness, international traffic with a focus on solvent countries.
- OnlyFans is a top player, achievable income for a model: $20-100k.
- Fansly - far behind in terms of income from OF, should be closer to TIR-2 platforms. But OF is not available for models from the Russian Federation, Kazakhstan and some other CIS countries. Fansly is the most traffic platform for them. You can count on $5-10k/questionnaire.
Tier-2
Content platforms with localization/audience in certain countries, interesting technical solutions, with an income horizon of up to about 10 thousand dollars for a model. There is infrastructure - agencies, a job market, interest from models.
- LoyalFans - OnlyFans with a focus on streaming, $2-10k with active work.
- MYM - European OnlyFans. There is traffic, agencies and quite achievable $2-10k/profile.
- 4Based is another European OnlyFans, about the same level as MYM.
- ManyVids is a good platform for selling ready-made video content; there are not enough agencies and tools for calculating expected income. Closer to PornHub than OnlyFans.
- Fanvue is a top site with allowed AI content. There is little information on income, rather closer to TIR-3. I’m adding it here because it’s developing and there is a unique positioning.
The gap between TIR-1 and TIR-2 is quite large; with market compression, traffic will focus on the top players in the niche.
Tier-3
The income horizon is unclear, since there are few operating agencies and public statistics. It may turn out interesting due to low competition, it is difficult to predict income, but something between 100-2000 dollars.
- Ton.Place is one of the most technologically advanced platforms, but the main audience of the fan base is from the CIS, small incomes with large time investments. Unlike other Tier-3 platforms, I would not say that there is low competition here. If you work with the CIS - take this platform!
- Clips4Sale (C4S) is an analogue of ManyVids with a focus on fetish content. I saw payouts for $1500 (it’s unclear for what period), but in general there was little traffic.
- iWantClips is another service like Clips4Sale, ManyVids.
- FanCentro - was near Tier-2, but experienced technical difficulties and lost some models/fans, bought by PH, you can take a closer look.
- JustForFans - old platform, less content restrictions than competitors.
Tier-4 or little information
As information is collected, something may migrate to Tier 2-3. But usually, little information = little traffic = little money.
- Playboy - interesting, but not enough information.
- AdmireMe VIP - it’s not very clear what’s happening on the platform.
- AVN Stars
- UnlockD
- BentBox
- Ifans
