I have been on ManyVids since 2018… it wasn’t the first site you could find my content on, but it was a very close second. Over the years, the site has changed it’s features and functionality, and sometimes it can be overwhelming to know where to actually start to get your profile growing, connect with customers and bag your sales.

I thought it might be useful for models using ManyVids to hear my top 5 tips for getting the most out of the site. At the current time, with the functions available to us, these are the things I believe you MUST do to grow on ManyVids. (these things can and probably will change, but for now, this is where we are at).

Hey, if you are not a model, this may not be very interesting to you… or maybe it will be! If you are a customer, it might help you navigate the site better too (otherwise known as win-win).

Complete EVERYTHING in About Me Section

In your ManyVids profile you will have an About Me section which has a two-fold job; 1) it tells visitors to your profile who you are and why you are so amazing, and 2) filling it out adds points to your MV score which contributes to your rating across the site. The rating is important because it helps you get seen on the site. For example, if someone searches for PAWG and then filters by “Highest MV Score”… BAM! There is your girl Rem Sequence.

And people do this when they get on a site… they will plug in what they are looking for and getting yourself as close to the top as possible is absolutely key for you to become their new favourite person.

Think of it this way… the more info you provide about yourself that speaks in a language that the customer/site understands, the more visible you will be.

The first section looks a little something like this:

As you can see, it has my joining date, my score, my social links, a blurb and my top video tags. The social tags are inputted in the next section so we will leave it for now. The video tags are automatically assigned depending on what you tag your videos. As you can see, my top vids are PAWG, MILF, Big Butts, Big Ass and SFW (I have a lot of non-nude content on my page… don’t judge me!)

People get a bit overwhelmed with the About Me section and I totally understand this. My advice, which may not help with this anxiety, is to use the character limit to the max! You want to write as much relevant, bait text in there as you can. You can always go back and edit this so don’t get too hung up on getting your first draft perfect, just get it done!

If you are not sure how to start, visit the pages of other models and see what they have written. Put yourself in the position of a customer who has never met you or seen you before. What are your best qualities, skills and how are you going to entertain them?

Remember all of this can be refined over time… mine has definitely had a number of revisions.

The second part of the About Me is an attributes block and looks a little something like this:

Fill in as much of this as you can. I cannot tell you how many profiles I visit that have nothing in this section. If you have nothing in here, it just says “check back later!” It is important because it tells people what you are about and gives them the option of “hearting” your hair colour, eye colour, breast size, measurements and body type. (For MV Boys and Trans, the options are different but the same rule applies… fill it all out!)

The “hearts” on your attributes contribute to your MV score so provide as many opportunities as you can for people to help boost your score. When I follow fellow models, I immediately go to this page and “heart” all the attributes I can because I know it is important.

Socialise on MV Social

MV Social was a big deal when it first came in. It was a huge change and like change in general, people didn’t like it. I was one of them.

But the main reason I didn’t like it was that I didn’t know how the hell to use it properly!

We get so used to doing things a certain way on certain sites that when it changes up, most of us are not flexible enough to embrace the change. Most of us come kicking and screaming.

The fact is that MV Social is just like… a social media platform. You can post, like, comment on and share other people’s content. I was doing it everyday on Twitter and Instagram but didn’t think clearly enough to transfer that mindset to ManyVids.

So, like you would do on other platforms, follow other models and like, comment and share their posts. If they share a post of yours, it is good manners to reciprocate! Reply to comments on your posts too. And like other platforms, it is definitely a faux pas to advertise YOUR content in the comments section of another models post. Just… don’t.

Have a Pinned Post

Like I said above, ManyVids is really starting to take off as a social community, so you will get people coming to your profile and wanting to like, share and comment on your posts. It is a “I scratch your back if you scratch mine” situation.

However…

Make sure there is something there for people to share! You can pin a post to the top of your MV Social page so that there is always something for someone to share if they want to support you. I share a lot of content from other models, but I always make sure I have an additional one or two posts of my own below my pinned post, so that if someone comes by, they can see what I am about and have more than one post to share.

Connect with other Models

Another thing you must do to grow on ManyVids is to connect with other models. Follow them, like their “About Me” section, like their clips, like and re-MV their posts and be a positive and supportive presence on the site.

There are also many reMV groups operated by models via Twitter that you can connect in with. These help to promote your content on ManyVids, therefore getting it out to a wider audience. These usually have quite specific rules about being a member, including liking and reMVing other models content, voting in contests and reviewing clips. Make sure you understand the rules of the group and always go to the admin of the group if you have any issues.

As I have said in previous posts, it is important to build positive relationships with other models and steer clear of drama. Think of other models as your work colleagues, working under the same employer. If you had an issue at your workplace, how would you handle it? We are often in a position of having to work with people who we don’t like or whose values don’t match our own, but it is important to stay civil and respectful.

Some would say drama between models can help increase exposure and sales, but in my experience, customers don’t like it. If you want to switch people off, or associate your name with a bad vibe, by all means, start drama. But in my experience, especially using ManyVids, customers are not huge fans of those models who are not nice to others in their community.

Enter the Weekly Competitions

This last one is definitely a bone of contention between models. ManyVids do weekly competitions as well as longer contests that can go as long as 10 days. These are opt in only, so you have to put a photo up and a contest quote to enter. You can offer rewards for paid votes (eg $5 = 1 free full length vid etc) which a lot of models do to increase their earnings and get a higher ranking in the comp.

I worked in the music industry for many years, and we certainly rail against gigs just for exposure in that sphere. Because that’s how unpaid opportunities are normally framed: “Yeah, we won’t pay you, but think of the EXPOSURE.” (*insert eye roll here).

But yes, I am gonna say it… one of the main things you can get out of being involved in a ManyVids contest is exposure, eg customers who didn’t know you exist get a chance to meet you. If you can get on the first or second page of the weekly contest, your chances of someone new seeing you go right up.

You can also access a “voter list”, so you can see everyone that voted for you. I make a point of contacting all the people who gave me free votes to thank them personally, and this has been a great tool to introduce yourself to new customers who may be interested in buying your content.

ManyVids does not offer a whole bunch of opportunities to get your face seen by people on the site, and as with all other sites, I advocate that you use what you can, while you can. As crappy as pure “exposure” is, the competitions are one of the ways to gain this. Because there are people out there who are your next big super fan, they just don’t know you exist yet.

I hope you enjoyed this piece and that it gave you some extra things to think about when it comes to how you use ManyVids. I haven’t covered EVERYTHING so if there is something you feel is also important, feel free to email me and let me know.
