Fan Topia

  Starting out can be pretty tough – whether you’re completely new to selling content, or been selling on another site – starting is tough! However, we want to help as much as we can! So, here are some tips that  Fan-Topia  thinks might make starting out a bit easier: Social Media. This might sound obvious, but it can be a little tricky. We have some creators who don’t want their friends or family to know what they are doing – and fair enough. It’s your content, you decide who you want finding it! So what we recommend is making a new Insta, Twitter, and Reddit account – this is only one to be associated with your content selling. Be sure to follow us on  Insta ,  Twitter  and  Reddit  – we follow back and help with engagement! Follow and sfs. Again, this one is pretty obvious – but a must do. Find a few people who also sell content, follow them and start to build a following of your own. SFS is a great way to rapidly build your audience. Post teas...

We get asked a lot if we have an app – the answer for that is simple – nope! App stores aren’t a fan of certain types of content, and did you know they would also take a cut of every single one of your subscriptions? Due to use trying to give you the highest payout we possibly can, this simply doesn’t make sense to us. BUT! You CAN add a shortcut to your home screen so it looks just like an app, so you can access it super easily to stay up to date with your postings, or interacting with your fav creators. Here’s how: 1. Open your phone’s browser. 2. Go to  Fan-Topia . 3. Hit the “Share” button (that little one with the square and arrow) 4. Scroll down to “Add to home-screen” and tap it. 5. Hit “Add” and you’re done! How easy is that?! Now you can have it functioning just like an app, easy to access, and you’re good to go!

  One of the hardest things when it comes to selling your content and creations is getting started. How do you get fans and subscribers when you don’t have too much content? Fear not, here are some simple steps you can follow in order to get subscribers, and get an income stream coming in. 1. Create Content This might seem like a no brainer – but it’s true. The best thing to do first up is create some content and get it uploaded. If a potential fan comes along and they see little or no content, they aren’t as likely to subscribe. 2. Create Some Teaser Content As you will see when you go to post, you can either set it to your fans, or general public. We recommend you have some content that you have showing for the public – this means they can come along, discover you and see/hear some of your content – which in turn will make them wish to sign up. 3. Set Your Subscription Level Right One thing we see a lot of is people charging a very high subscription value when they are just start...

  So, you have content uploaded, your subscription set, you’re all ready to roll… but now what? How do you get your profile out there? Without sharing your link, people won’t find you. So, here are some top tips! 1. Go to your profile! This can be found by click the right hand “hamburger menu” then clicking your username at the top. You’re now on your “Feed”. 2. Copy your URL, or your “address”. This is the thing at the top of your browser window (our format is: fan-topia.com/u/username) 3. Paste it EVERYWHERE! And we mean everywhere. Snapchat, Twitter, Reddit, Facebook, Tiktok – the list goes on! The more people who see your link, the more chance of gaining fans. Once you start advertising, people will start visiting your page. Don’t be disheartened if people don’t subscribe to you right away. It can take time. These “overnight success stories” you hear from other sites are very, very few and far between – they just get publicity. We are happy to help share your link to get your n...

Battling Trolls and Surviving Cyberbullies Being an influencer is an exciting line of work, and it’s easy to get used to having the adoration of your fanbase. However, one of the most damaging and isolating parts of being an influencer is the amount of online hate and cyberbullying you often have to endure as well. Trolls can take a tremendous toll on your mental and even physical health, and it’s not always easy to know how to handle them. First off, know that you’re not alone. Anyone who has ever had a significant online presence has had to deal with the scum that crawls out from under the bridge. Trolls are usually nothing more that a nuisance that can be blocked and forgotten, but sometimes it’s more serious than that. To help you combat your online haters, we’ve come up with a list of ten tips to help protect yourself, your health, and your content. Ten Tips for Dealing With Trolls 1. Don’t engage Cyberbullies are looking for a reaction. They want to know that their words or actio...

This is one of the biggest frustrations of creators. You hear about all these records being set, and people earning $10,000’s per week – but you’re struggling to get fans… Why?! Don’t worry; you’re still gorgeous! That is NOT the reason – here are some of the most common reasons people have trouble with gaining fans. 1. Advertising Now, we don’t mean paying for advertising – that can be very costly (and please oh please do NOT pay accounts on Instagram to promote you unless you are 100% sure about their validity and engagement ratio). There are loads of free ways to advertise yourself – but if you don’t advertise, no one will know you’re here! The internet is a very big place, and it is easy to get lost – so don’t make that mistake. You can use Instagram, Facebook Groups, Reddit, Tinder, Bumble, Twitter etc. to promote yourself and let people know how to find you (just copy and paste your profile link). Try and find groups that fit with what you’re selling and your content. If you’re p...

  When it comes to marketing yourself, there are a few things to watch out for. We thought we would make this simple list so that you’re aware, and don’t fall into any situations that risk your account being banned, or you being scammed – so here we go! 1.  Nudity This one might seem pretty self explanatory – and it is somewhat. When posting, be sure to to break any sites terms with the content you’re posting. Instagram has some pretty odd lines that seem to shift person to person. Some can post booty pics, some get deleted – some can post see through tops, some get banned. We recommend to post with caution. Tease, show a little, but keep it PG. Let the imagination do all the heavy lifting. 2. Hashtags There are good and bad hashtags to use. Remember, if your account is set to private, hashtags don’t really matter – People aren’t going to find you with them. There is also a list of hashtags that can get your post flagged and deleted. For a known list, please see  here . T...

  We know by now that each social media platform is an entity with its own community, its own rules, and its own no-nos. Because growing your socials can be such a long and uphill battle, it’s important to be aware of what you’re posting, how you’re posting it, and how your audience is responding. Without carefully considering each post and the platform you’re using, you run the risk of making a careless social media mistake that could cause your follower count to plummet. Let’s take a look at six common social media mistakes and how to avoid making them. Don’t Play Favorites Diversity across platforms is the key to building a successful influencer career. You don’t want to limit your fans to one single social media platform, but in order to do that you need to put in a little extra legwork. One site that makes this easier, and also allows you to post to adult platforms is  Social Sched.  Posts that are perfect for Instagram may not be quite right for Twitter, and Tik-Tok...

  One of the things are are asked quite a bit is “How do fans find me or see my content”. The best way we can help with describing what to do with this is as follows: Fan-Topia  is a pretty large site, with a lot of users and creators. Each creator, their page is like their own business – which requires fans (or subscribers) to keep going. When you have a business, you have to advertise. As mentioned,  Fan-Topia  is pretty big, but the interest is astronomically large – and your page (whether it be here, or on a another platform, is pretty darn small in comparison.) – So, if you’re hoping to start a page and have the fans flood in – we are sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but it isn’t going to happen. You need to let people know you’re here – either quietly in DM’s, or shouting it from roof tops. The more places your profile is linked (and simple hit that little arrow on the right when you’re on your page to get the link) the better and more people will be able to...

  One thing that is prevalent on the internet these days is scamming. Either from people blatantly ripping others off, or by just trying to get a little something for free. One of the things we do on  Fan-Topia  is use PayPal to process payments. You might think “oh, well, I have a PayPal, so therefor let’s cut the site out and get paid directly” – and here are a few reasons why that’s a bad idea. Personal information. When you get paid directly, certain personal information is available through the transaction. Going through  Fan-Topia  stops that, as we act as a protective barrier. Some people use payment methods that display as “pending” and then never actually complete. Our systems are set up so that those “pending payments” aren’t ever displayed as paid, nor do they get access to your content without it being paid. Cutting the site out means we don’t make money – we already payout 95%, so don’t have much skin in the game as it is – but cutting it down to no...

  With social media booming there has been surprisingly amazing shift within the digital world. Moreover the expectation of the content has been increase by consumers also. Now a day everybody with a smartphone who posts anything on a social media platform is an unsaid content creator. Along with this money has become the most lucrative part of this industry and easy way of earning as well. Conflicting to popular belief, making money on digital content doesn’t necessarily require you to devote countless hours to building an audience through vlog or increasing an online “persona.” Social media users and consumers can make a decent amount of money, all by apprehending the value of the content they create and share online with their friends and family. There are a lot of unknown platforms that not only allow creators to upload and share all types of content with the goal of monetizing it, but go a little step further than the popular existing content creating platform by actively aidi...

  So in this article we will focus on a question we are asked a bit – the easiest and most efficient way to move from one platform to another – after all, we want you to maintain your income from your content. That’s what we are all about. So, first things first – make an account at  fan-topia.com  – it’s easy and free. After that, complete your profile. Without this completed, people won’t be able to find you. Once you have done, there are two steps you should take: 1. Upload some public content. This is content that people can see when they visit your profile. While it’s up to you whether or not you use this feature, we recommend it as this allows potential subscribers to get an idea of your content. Think of it as teasers or trailers. 2. Upload some subscriber only content. This obviously is where your money will come from. But without it, you’re not giving people a reason to subscribe. From here, you might ask “but I don’t want to lose subscribers on the other platfor...

  You might be here on our blog trying to see who we are, and what we are about. So here it is! Over our years in business, we have known many creators – some small, some large. We found that while some large creators were able to profit off their content easily, some had a real struggle with making ends meet. They get to this “If I could put more time into it, I could make more money and quit my job, but I need my job to keep paying rent”. That’s where we wanted to try and help. A lot of creator platforms take a huge amount of the cut and claim it to be to cover credit card fees, server upkeep etc – but you don’t actually know where it goes! We aim to be as transparent as possible – and give as much to the creator as possible. We pay out 95% of received funds. Received funds is that amount after credit card fees – this isn’t something we can control, and you do have the option to pop that fee onto your subscription amount. We will constantly be searching for providers that allow a...

One of the big mistakes we see some creators making, is locking all their content down, and not actually letting people know what content they are producing. Imagine if you were looking to subscribe, and you had seen someone post about their subscription for exclusive content. You think to yourself “Oh awesome, I can see/hear something others don’t!”. So you head on over and check it out. The subscription is $10/m, and there is no description of what you’re actually subscribing too – would you do it? Chances are the answer to this question is no. You want certainty on what you’re spending your money on! This is where a clear bio description comes in handy. You can let people know what they will be getting (and try say how often you will post as well) so they can justify spending that money. The other feature we offer for you as a creator, is you can make public posts – not locked to subscribers. So when someone new comes along, they can see a sample of your work, allowing them to becom...
