How Fansly’s Recommendations Work

Fansly uses a smart algorithm that learns from user behavior to recommend media they’re most likely to enjoy. This system helps users discover new content without the need for endless scrolling or searching through pages of creators.


How to Appear on the For You Page (FYP)

  1. On your home page, click the media icon in the post composer and add a video from your device or vault. Only videos between 3 seconds and 10 minutes are promoted. Images and GIFs on their own aren’t.

  2. If the video is locked, click Add free preview. Locked media without a preview can’t appear on the FYP.

  3. Set your permissions under Limit who can see this, then click Add to post.

  4. Add text and a few relevant #hashtags that describe your content.

  5. Turn on Post to FYP, then click Post.

📚 For the full list of requirements, check out the For You Page (FYP) article.


💡 Pro Tip

Use clear and relevant words, phrases, and hashtags to describe your content. This helps the algorithm connect your posts with the right audience, increasing your visibility.


Privacy and Content Visibility

  • Content marked as private will not appear on the “For You” Page.

  • The algorithm respects your privacy and boundaries — only public content is promoted.


Stay Within the Rules

All posts must comply with Fansly’s Terms of Service. Keeping your content within guidelines helps ensure a safe and positive experience for everyone.
