## More terms

- **Vault:** The OnlyFans library where a creator stores photos and videos to reuse in posts and paid messages. Organizing it with lists saves time and avoids selling the same item twice to the same fan.
- **Free or paid page:** The two ways to run an account: a free subscription, where most money comes from paid messages and tips, or a paid subscription. Many creators run both.
- **Free trial link:** A link that gives free access to a paid page for a few days or to a limited number of fans. It helps win subscribers during a promotion and measure how many go on to pay.
- **Expired fans:** Subscribers whose subscription ended without renewing. They are still a valuable audience: the right message at the right time can bring them back.
- **OFTV:** OnlyFans' video platform with free, safe for work content, separate from creators' subscription pages.
- **Shadowban:** When a social network quietly reduces an account's reach, usually for breaking its rules on content or links. It is one reason to follow each network's rules when promoting.
- **Niche:** The specific theme or style that sets an account apart and attracts a particular audience. A clear niche makes promotion easier and fans more loyal.
- **Upsell:** Offering a fan something more valuable after a purchase or during a conversation, such as a bundle or custom content. Done well, it adds value; done badly, it feels pushy.
- **Bundle:** A discounted multi-month subscription offer, such as three or six months at a lower monthly price, used to raise retention.
