In the rapidly evolving world of online adult content creation, understanding how to price your offerings on platforms such as Flirtback can be a challenge. It’s a delicate balance between enticing buyers with attractive prices and ensuring your hard work is appropriately rewarded. In this article, we provide insights and strategies to guide you in pricing your content effectively and maximizing your earnings.
Consistency Across Multiple Platforms
Different content-selling platforms attract a diverse range of visitors, each with unique consumption preferences. If your content is available on multiple sites, it’s crucial to harmonize your pricing across all platforms. Subscription-based sites offer unlimited access to your catalog for a monthly fee, while platforms like Flirtback cater to users who seek a more personalized experience, opting for pay-per-view content. Therefore, consider a tiered pricing system that appeals to both types of consumers, keeping your fanbase engaged and expanding.
The Power of Free ‘Teaser’ Content
Engaging your audience and sparking their curiosity can be as simple as offering free ‘taster’ content occasionally. This technique is effective in advertising your upcoming premium content, and it also aids in building a stronger rapport with your connections. Unsure of what to offer? Consider sharing some alluring photos, a tantalizing striptease, or a snippet from your premium content.
Content Variety and Pricing Diversity
Offering a varied selection of themes in your content library is a fantastic way to showcase your versatility and keeps your viewers intrigued. Simultaneously, a diverse pricing structure allows users to unlock different content types at varying price points, encouraging them to explore more as they get to know you. Don’t shy away from experimenting with the pricing of different content types—you’ll soon discover what resonates best with your audience.
Staging your pricing with the types of content you post might be a good starter strategy for you, here’s a simple way for you to group content by price to help you get your profile off the ground:
Free content – Maybe a striptease, a sexy shower, a short clip, or some alluring photos.
Cheaper content (between €1 – €7) – This is fully dependent on what you’re comfortable with – Masturbation, your favorite toys, oral, a more revealing striptease, or graphic & sexy photos
Premium content – Your specialty! whether alone or with a partner, this is where visitors can unlock your best content.
PRO TIP: Don’t be scared to play around with the pricing here for different types of content, you’ll soon find what works for you and your connections.

Preserving the Value of Your Content
Yes, post some tasters and teasers for free, but if you want to make money from content creation, then having a pricing strategy or plan in place will help you when it comes to uploading and saving time.
Don’t devalue your content! Posting videos at a cheaper price will help you gauge your audience but make sure you have a plan to raise your pricing to a level that suits you as you grow in popularity and confidence. It’s important to remember why you’re selling content in the first place, and what your overall content creation aims are, at Flirtback we work with you to help the right users to find your Profile, it won’t be instant, online growth rarely is, but with patience and consistency, it will happen.
If making money isn’t your main reason for making content then by all means do post for free…. but whatever your reasons for creating content in the adult industry… remember your worth, and remember our tips.
Embracing Content Requests
Requests work really well in live performances, but they can work equally as well in pre-recorded content too.
As you get to know your audience and your top connections grow, maintaining regular communication with them is a must! One of the many things you can do is host competitions on your social media or on your Flirtback Chat for your top connections to request the theme of your next video or upload a picture dedicated to them.
PRO TIP: If you do take requests, make sure to outline any rules prior. And when you do host premium content, let them know in a post ‘As requested by (username)…and a short description of the video’ This way other followers will know you’re open to requests and will pay a premium for it.
So, if you’re struggling, remember this order and perhaps use it each time you upload content, it’s a great method for promotion.
- Taster content – free
- Medium – locked
- Premium – locked
- Requests – locked
