How To Get Rich Making Porn

Anyone can get rich making porn if they just follow this simple formula, without having a pre-existing following or having your family find out!

Does that kind of claim seem too good to be true? That’s because it is. Honest advice about selling porn should include an admission that most people make very little money doing it in the long-term. It’s reasonable that it’s an attractive job in some ways, because you require very few resources to do it and your work schedule is as flexible as you’d like. None of that makes it easy to become a wealthy porn star.

Depending on the business model, selling advice on how to get rich quick making porn can be a lot easier than making porn itself. Those who become moderately successful in the sex industry can put out a book or a subscription service claiming to offer valuable advice, and there are huge numbers of people looking to sell pornographic content of themselves for extra cash who will be willing to spend a little bit of money to invest in that dream.

Many courses that claim to give important tips on making porn will give you exactly the same advice. Here it is for free, in simple terms. They’ll dress it up, make it seem like more than it is, though it amounts to roughly the same thing:

How to Make Money Doing Porn!

  1. Utilize social media to advertise, without including your link in everything. Make a profile with your porn links in the bio and occasional promotional tweets that highlight what content you make, and have the rest of your tweets be attractive selfies with captions where you put your porn links in the replies. Engage with other people and make posts that show some personality so that people want to subscribe to you specifically because they like you, rather than making your branding all about your physical look.
  2. Post on a diverse range of sites. Use PornHub for short clips, put your videos on any site that has in-site traffic (ManyVids, IWantClips), have an OnlyFans and a JustForFans with the same content so that people can pick which subscription service they’d rather use.
  3. Dedicate time to working. Have a schedule for posting, of at least a video a week to begin with and some pictures, so that people stay subscribed or keep buying new videos from you.
  4. Interact with your subscribers or fans and offer additional services, such as custom videos, to encourage people to spend more money. Existing subscribers have already shown a willingness to spend money, and so you are more likely to convert them into additional sales than you are to find an entirely new customer.
  5. If certain advertising venues aren’t working for you, and you’re wasting your time trying to make them work, drop them.
  6. Try retweet groups, make friends with other porn performers and interact with them, and network! Swap free trials of your subscription services with your friends and agree to comment on each others’ posts, and/or collaborate with them.

There are other methods you’ll see, used largely by OnlyFans “agents” who are mostly young men that manage a bunch of people on OnlyFans. One popular method is to use dating apps, chat to people and link them to a snapchat, and post stories and occasional porn ads there to get these people to subscribe. This has various issues, and is a manipulative marketing tactic, but these “agents” use it to farm subscribers and some will try and sell this idea to you. Don’t pay money to learn about how to implement a scam.

As there are more crackdowns on different websites and across the internet as a whole on adult content, a bottleneck is created for all of these creators where you can only advertise your adult content on a select number of platforms. It’s not so much that the porn industry is oversaturated, but that certain social media sites are oversaturated with advertising because it’s not permitted elsewhere. When you’re struggling and see a few people succeeding, it’s often the case that you’ll assume they have some secret method that allowed them to get popular. Try not to fall for that.

Porn performers who get very popular do so by already having a large following, getting lucky, or by dedicating a huge amount of time and effort to building a brand over many years and getting in early on any new platforms that become available.

If you’re determined to succeed making and selling online porn, the way to do that is the same way you build a social media following in general, just with a few more restrictions because of the type of content.

Unlike a lot of these courses, I’m not going to lie to you, there will be drawbacks. Those drawbacks will get more severe as you get more popular, unfortunately. The more well-known you get, the more sacrifices you have to make to remain anonymous until it becomes impossible altogether to keep your real identity totally separate. At a certain point, people you know will start to recognize you or see your advertising. If you have your own personal social media, people might link to it and as if it’s you, and you’ll have to decide if you delete or private those accounts. Your family will find out eventually if you get popular and show your face, it’s usually just a matter of time. There’s no business model that protects you from all stigma, unfortunately.

Making porn isn’t a method to get rich quick, but it is a flexible way to make some money with a minimal barrier to entry. Depending on how much you’re willing to show and how much time you put in, that money might be enough to really help you out alongside other income, but only a tiny fraction even make full-time income.

Don’t let an expensive “how to get rich making porn” course cut into the little money you’ll actually make from online sex work!
