THE FOR YOU PAGE

When used correctly, the FYP can be an amazing source of internal promotion. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to sharpen your strategy, this guide is your go-to for understanding the FYP.

UNDERSTANDING THE FOR YOU PAGE

Our FYP works similarly to other FYPs across other social media platforms—it’s a way for new and old fans to discover your content.

Our algorithm divides promotion into two types: automatic and searchable.

Automatic promotion tailors content suggestions based on user interactions, showing your work on the FYP and Suggestions tab.

Searchable promotion comes into play when users actively look for specific tags like hashtags or profile tags.

IMPROVING FYP EXPOSURE

To show up on the FYP, your content needs to be accessible. This means at least one unlocked piece of media or preview.

Always ensure the ‘Post to FYP’ option is checked for posts you want featured.

If your profile is private, enable ‘Internal discovery when the timeline is hidden’ by going to Settings > Privacy & Safety to keep it discoverable.

When it comes to the actual post, it doesn’t need to be NSFW to capture attention. What thrives on Fansly’s FYP is what resonates universally in the social media sphere.

PRO TIP

INCORPORATING WELL THOUGHT OUT HASHTAGS INTO YOUR POSTS CAN IMPROVE VISIBILITY ON THE FYP AND IN SEARCHES. KEEP HASHTAGS RELEVANT, ACCURATE AND UNDER 10 TO MAINTAIN FOCUS.

The same goes for Profile Tags. Adding them to your profile helps the algorithm understand how to categorize and suggest you to users. There’s no set limit to profile tags, but they should be accurate and relevant.

STRATEGIC POSTING TIPS

To maintain high engagement, consider the frequency and type of your posts. Prioritize quality and ensure your posts are well-timed. Quality here refers to engagement levels, not just video resolution.

Short, engaging videos typically perform better, aligning with current user trends for short and entertaining content.

ANALYTICS INSIGHTS

While views tend to be the popular metric creators focus on, engagement is the most important to your overall performance. Videos should aim to entice viewers to watch until the end of the video.

By tapping the three horizontal dots on your best performing media, you can explore patterns, such as the most effective times of day to post.

Consistency is key, but it doesn’t always mean posting multiple times a day. In some cases, it can harm your overall FYP performance. Instead, aim for regularity by posting on predictable days and times when your audience is most active and likely to interact.
