Many acknowledge model and YouTuber Erika Costell from her time in the well-known collective Team 10, however because the crew's apparent disbandment, the author has been making a reputation for herself on her personal terms. Fondly considered a "girl next door" by her followers, many by no means believed she would join the cohort of creators becoming a member of the NSFW content site OnlyFans. That is, until she did.

On Nov. 9, Erika introduced her OnlyFans account and talked with Distractify about her choice to sign up for the platform.

Erika launched her OnlyFans to share more at the back of the scenes content with her followers.

Plenty of content creators have made OnlyFans accounts, and many particularly to share 18+ content — however the web page is not best used to share grownup entertainment content. In fact, it functions so much like Patreon does, where users can publish exclusive content for a monthly subscription fee and engage more in my view with their fans.

"In my opinion it’s the easiest platform on which to communicate one on one with my audience while simultaneously sharing real-time content," she says. "I’ve been looking for a platform where I could separate my younger audience from my older audience; OnlyFans is allowing me to do so."

Most of all, Erika is having a look ahead to being ready to connect with her older fanbase on a more personal degree than she can on her different social media channels.

"It’s important for me to connect with them on a deeper level that involves more than just posting hot pictures on Instagram," she stated. "I love how OnlyFans has given their content creators the freedom to be their authentic selves with no judgement."

What roughly content will Erika put up on her OnlyFans?

While OnlyFans is very best known as a platform for grownup leisure creators to share their original content (and feature their viewers make stronger them without delay), Erika has a bit of of a unique plan in mind for her page. She says that through the years, she's accumulated this immense backlog of content that she's simply never had an outlet to share it on ahead of.

She stated the content consists mostly of "fun and sexy photoshoot montages, unseen photos, traveling the world content, behind the scenes of some pretty exclusive experiences like the Grammy’s, modeling in London and pretty much all the raw content that came AFTER the nicely edited and filtered videos posted on YouTube."

"l essentially have the behind the scenes from the past couple years of my life — my team films everything!" she says. "I just haven’t had a platform that made sense for some of this content until now."

While she intends to use the platform as some way to connect with her older target market, she also admitted that she "hasn't fully decided how far [she's] going to go," or if she'll profit from OnlyFans' possibility to publish 18+ content.

"Some of the things I’ve already been posting on Instagram could be considered risqué and I will continue posting that type of content on OnlyFans," she says. "I’ve had photoshoots in the past that have gone way beyond your typical Instagram content, and the photos were 'accepted' because the shoot was set up through my legitimate modeling agency; so I don’t really see a difference."
