Separate FA Account?
a year ago
σ(≧ε≦σ) ♡ I SQUIGGLE, I WIGGLE, I SQUIRM, MY BUTT IS NO PLACE LIKE HOME <3 (。・//ε//・。)
I wanna post more of my book/novel stuff but unsure if i should do that on a seperate FA account maybe? or mix it in here between Icarus posting TwT
I have a separate SFW account that I use exclusively for more serious/historical artworks that would look very silly with the design I use nearly exclusively for lewd stuff. And I don't have a problem switching between accounts, because I use this one far more often!
I think if you feel the SFW material will take up a huge chunk of space away from your NSFW material that people also follow you for. It might be best to go the second account route!
I just don’t wanna start a new account with not many watchers that wouldn’t get my work out there I guess.. positive here being I can post stuff to promote my patreon and get at least 500+ views that helps advertise it
And that definitely is the hardest part about doing that. Because you're right. It's going to take awhile before you gain enough traction to get people to follow you over on that new account.
So it just boils down to how you envision your main activities. I'm mostly focused on the lewd stuff, so I don't mind my other account not getting that much views or interaction compared to this one. But for me, it was more necessary because the designs I use for each are so different, that if I moved everything to my Scraps. It would be one massively bloated section since FA doesn't have great curating tools yet.
Maybe it might work better for you to just keep everything on one main and try and direct traffic that way. I don't think you're SFW is way too different in aesthetics to your more spicy stuff. So it might work better for you than it did for me if you want to just stick to that route. It's also way easier instead of having to reformat a new account etc.
Either case, I hope something works for you! I get the struggle entirely~
