Fans have always been the backbone of any content creator. And with apps like Fanhouse, that connection becomes even deeper. These apps allow content creators to share regular updates and videos exclusively for their fans so that these fan communities can be built and nurtured. Over time, such apps have shown an amazing impact on the growth and popularity of content creators.
What started as nurturing and communicating with fans turned into a revenue-generating model soon. Apps like Fanhouse, OnlyFans, and OFTV allowed content creators to monetize their content so that their fans could pay to support their favorite creators.
In this blog, we will debunk all these platforms for you, tell you the features that make them so unique and popular, and how you can create one such platform of your own, without coding. So, let’s begin!
Fanhouse is a platform where content creators can release exclusive behind-the-scene, and other fan-only content to their fan community. They can monetize their content so that the fans can pay and support their journey.
It has basically three main benefits:
Fanhouse lets you create an online fan community where you can freely interact with your fans, and they can know all the updates about your journey as a content creator. Let’s walk you through some of the unique features that make this platform so popular.
Housechats is an exclusive chatting platform within your fanhouse community, where your fans can interact with each other. Since you are a part of this community too, you can chat and collaborate with your fans, reply to their questions, and be a part of their conversations.
You can reward your loyal fans with fan badges, that will encourage them to remain loyal to you in the future too! These fan badges signify that just like they support you, you want to value and support them too.
You can integrate multiple platforms like Spotify, Twitch, and Discord. Then, you can connect with your fan community through these platforms too!
Safety is a big concern when it comes to building such a vast fan community. But Fanhouse lets you implement unique watermarks that prevent any form of piracy attempts on your content shared on this platform.
OFTV, also known as OnlyFans TV, is an exclusive platform where OnlyFans creators can share member-only content with their fans. In a way, it is a place where the fans of specific OnlyFans creators can gain access to exclusive additional content developed by these creators that is not available anywhere else.
The fans can pay the asked price for accessing these content, and hence the creators can earn revenues from these content to support their content creation journey.
There are some features that make OFTV stand out amongst the other fan-specific platforms. We have tried to highlight some of those features below.
OFTV has divided its content and its creators into multiple genres, like fitness, music, comedy, podcasts, wellness, beauty and style, food, sports and gaming, and many more!
Along with smartphones running on Android and iOS, OFTV is available on multiple smart TVs and streaming sticks, including Android TV, Samsung TV, Roku, Fire TV, and Apple TV.
OFTV offers a dark mode too, that can be activated by clicking on the button situated next to the search bar.
If you are a content creator, your fans are your most important asset. If your fan community is strong, you can easily float through hard times. To build a strong and loyal fan base, communicating with them at regular intervals, and making them feel valued is important. Apps like Fanhouse and OFTV help you achieve that.
Let’s navigate some major reasons for having your own fan-only application.
Applications like Fanhouse let you connect with your fans directly, while OFTV lets you share exclusive updates and videos that can be accessed only by your loyal fans. This makes your fans feel that they are being valued. Hence, your bond with your fans grows stronger.
Since these apps help you share a lot of exclusive content that only your fans can access, more and more people become interested in joining this platform. Hence, your fan base keeps expanding exponentially.
If you own the platform, you will not have to follow any stringent rules and regulations regarding the type of content or monetization options. You can deliver all types of content and monetize them as you want.
You can create an app like Fanhouse and OFTV using any of the three ways given below.
You can build your app from scratch. Hence, you will be responsible for designing the UI and UX and then coding the entire app. Once the code is ready, you will have to test and debug it too! You can even hire a few developers on a freelance basis to help you out in this process. But in any way, it is going to be an extremely time-consuming and expensive approach.
In this process, you will be able to add whatever features you want to add.
It might take you months and even years to complete the development of your platform.
To ease things out, you can connect with a development firm. So, a development firm is an organization that takes development projects from clients and completes them on their behalf. It might save you some effort, but it will cost you heavily when it comes to privacy and security.
Since these firms will always have your source code, they can use them again. Also, if you want to rework your base code for some reason in the future, you might have to go back to them to understand the code in the first place, and then pay them again as they might treat it as a new request.
It will take less time when compared to the previous approach.
No privacy of source code, chances of getting reused are really high.
