Platforms & getting started

Choosing and setting up where you sell — OnlyFans vs Fansly and other platforms, going faceless, picking a niche, and getting a page live the right way.

Before growth and pricing comes a set of setup decisions that quietly shape everything after: which platform to sell on, whether to run faceless, what niche to commit to, and how to structure a page from day one. This pillar is the getting-started layer — the questions creators ask before they've earned their first dollar.
Most of these are trade-offs, not right answers. OnlyFans has the biggest audience and the most mature payout system; alternatives compete on lower fees or different rules. Faceless is viable but changes your traffic playbook. We lay out the honest pros and cons so you pick with your eyes open.
Once your foundation is set, move into growth & marketing and pricing & earnings.
