Creating and uploading content for sale on ManyVids

Here are some tips for creating and uploading content for sale on ManyVids:

1. Plan and organize your content before you start creating it. Decide on a theme or concept for your content, and make a list of the specific items that you want to include. This can help to ensure that your content is cohesive and appealing to potential buyers.
2. When coming up with video ideas, it can often help to think of the title first. This way you can come up with a title that with words or phrases in that people might search for and come up with video titles that will get people’s attention. Then make your video to fit the title.
3. Using high-quality equipment and lighting to create your content can help you justify a higher price and attract more buyers, but if you are just starting out, then using your mobile phone and making sure you are near a window with lots of natural light will still give you great content. A cheap tripod with a phone mount and remote control is a great beginner’s setup, some models even come with a ring light built in. When you have earnt some money from your first payout, you can invest in a good camera and lighting setup to ensure that your videos and photos look and sound professional.
4. Edit your content carefully to improve its quality and make it more appealing to buyers. Use video editing software to trim, cut, and splice your videos, and use photo editing software to touch up your photos and make them look their best. There are lots of free editing apps available in your app store of choice, so try a few out and see which works best for you. 
5. Choose appropriate titles and tags for your content. This can help buyers to find your content more easily when they are searching for specific items on the site. Remember to think about what users will be searching for and make sure to include these where possible.
6. When you upload your content to your store, add a description that puts your video in some kind of context. Give it a story and background that will make people want to see it enough to pay.
7. Select your thumbnail and teaser clip to entice viewers without giving the best content away. Try not to show the best parts, but the moments leading up to them.

By following these tips, you can create high-quality content that is more likely to sell well on ManyVids.

One of the best things about ManyVids that means creators can make vastly larger amounts of money than on OnlyFans is the fact that customers can find and buy your content right from the home page, without already being subscribers/followers.

With OnlyFans, you can only sell content or subscriptions to people who you have given the link to your profile to. This is because OnlyFans offers no way for fans to “find” you. There’s no search function, there’s no top sellers page, and there is no way at all for people to find your content apart from you sharing your link with people yourself or sending out endless Pay Per View messages to people who are very unlikely to buy.

With ManyVids, you upload your content once, set your title, description and thumbnail and it will show up in search from that point on. This means it can sell time and again with no more input from you. A video on ManyVids has so much more potential to earn thousands and thousands of dollars over years, instead of making a few sales for as long as you can force it in front of people’s eyes on OnlyFans.

Selling Custom Content on ManyVids

ManyVids has a great system for selling custom content, requested by customers. You can set a price per minute for different levels of video or negotiate with customers to agree on the exact video and price that works for both of you.

Here are some tips for selling custom videos

1. Communicate clearly with buyers to understand their specific requests and preferences for the custom content. Ask them for details about what they want, such as the theme, length, and format of the content, and any specific items or activities that they want to see.
2. Deliver the custom content to the buyer promptly and in the agreed-upon format. Make sure to upload the content to the “My Media” section of your profile and share the link with the buyer so that they can download it easily.
3. Follow up with the buyer to ensure that they are satisfied with the custom content and to address any issues or concerns that they may have. This can help to build a good reputation and improve your chances of getting repeat business from the buyer.
4. IMPORTANT TIP Some buyers may ask for the video you make for them to be exclusive, but this should always carry a LARGE extra charge. It is important to remember how much money each video you make can be worth to you in sales. A single video that you can sell in your store for $10 might sell 10 times a month for example. Meaning you would earn $1200 a year from the video, or $12,000 over 10 years. Making a custom video and NOT being able to sell it on your store to other customers means you are losing out on thousands of dollars potentially. Make sure you charge at least a few hundred dollars on top of the creation fee for exclusive videos

4. Participate in the ManyVids community by commenting on other people’s content and engaging with your followers. This can help to build your reputation and make you more visible to potential buyers.
