CYBERSPACE—According to data presented by OnlyAccounts.io, OnlyFans received 3.4 million requests for content creator accounts in ten months, between January and October this year, or 500,000 more than in the same period last year. Between January and October 2022, the platform received around 2.9 million requests.
Still, only one-third of all account requests in 2023 have been approved. That means OnlyFans approved 1.18 million new content creator accounts in ten months of the year, almost the same as a year ago, pushing their total number to more than 4.2 million.
Even seven years after its launch, the OnlyFans user base continues to increase. Despite the criticism and controversies surrounding the platform's main attraction, the adult content, the number of people who want to post content on OnlyFans is higher than ever.
One of the main features that made OnlyFans stand out in the past years and contributed to its 40 million website visit count is the platform`s content monetization strategy given to performers. OnlyFans creators can put their content entirely behind a paywall and allow access only to users who subscribe to their channel. They can create exclusive personalized content for users, monetize interactions like private conversations, text messages, and calls, and offer content packages on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis. Content creators keep 80 percent of the revenue, and the remaining 20 percent goes to OnlyFans.
With more than 1.1 million new content creator accounts, the total number of content posts surged as well. According to a transparency report, monthly content posts started rising significantly in 2023. After standing at roughly 23 million in January and February, the total number of posts hit 28.3 million in April and then jumped to almost 35 million in July.
After floating around 34 million in August and September, the monthly number of content posts jumped to 37.8 million in October, the highest number the platform has ever seen. Overall, OnlyFans creators posted almost 306.6 million pieces of content in ten months of the year or nearly 60 percent more than in the same period a year ago.
