Here at Commission Academy, we’re all about making money online & the best ways to do it.
As a result, we recently published a guide on selling feet pics online, which received crazy amounts of interest & saw us getting asked many questions.
One question that stood out, though, as the most commonly asked, was, is selling feet pics dangerous?
So that’s exactly what we’ve decided to cover in this blog post.
We’ll be explaining whether or not selling feet pics is dangerous, what not to do to avoid scams & most excitingly, how to safely sell feet pics online for money.
So buckle up & let’s dive in, starting with the most pressing question first.
Is Selling Feet Pics Dangerous?
Selling feet pics can be dangerous, but it doesn’t have to be. There are plenty of precautions you can take to sell feet pics safely & anonymously.
However, before we explain what precautions you can take to sell feet pics safely, the question is, what are the dangers of selling feet pics?
Well, in short, there are 2 main dangers for feet pic sellers. They are;
- The possibility of getting scammed
- The possibility of their identity being revealed (and potentially getting stalked)
And whilst getting scammed might not be the most damaging of the two, it’s undoubtedly the most common issue faced by people new to selling feet pics.
What’s really bad about the scams, though, is that getting scammed often doesn’t just involve giving away foot pics without any payment in return.
Instead, it typically involves the scammers tricking the feet pic sellers & actually stealing money from them.
So the scammer will get both the feet pics and the seller’s hard-earned cash.
They typically do this by claiming that they want to pay via prepaid cards to keep their identity anonymous, which, I think you’ll agree, seems pretty reasonable.
However, they’ll ask you (the seller) to buy the gift card and to do so, you’ll need to top it up with an activation balance of around $10.
So you can likely already imagine what happens next. As soon as you send them the details to “add the payment”, they instead just withdraw the balance & vanish.
Often, though (depending on the card), they’ll withdraw a larger amount putting the card into a negative balance & leaving the seller with a hefty bill to pay.
So that’s one of the main dangers of selling feet pics, but then, of course, there’s another… And that danger involves the seller’s identity being revealed.
That’s the last thing any foot pic seller wants because that obviously comes with a whole host of problems, as you can likely imagine.
So when it comes to selling feet pics online, there are 2 main dangers that you need to protect yourself against, which are:
- Getting scammed
- Having your identity revealed
And we’ll take a look at how you can avoid those dangers & safely sell feet pics below.
How To Safely Sell Feet Pics Without Getting Scammed
The good news is that the process of selling feet pics safely without getting scammed is pretty straightforward forward, thanks to apps like OnlyFans, InstaFeet & FeetFinder.
So, to sell your feet pictures safely without getting scammed, here are the steps you should follow:
Be Wary About “Too Good To Be True” Offers
When it comes to selling foot pictures, most scammers tend to hang out on social media & they reach out to people with unsolicited messages offering handsome sums of money in exchange for foot pics.
More often than not, these sums of money will be in the hundreds or even thousands in an attempt for the scammer to catch the recipient’s attention.
But don’t fall for it.
It’s extremely rare for people who are legitimately looking to purchase foot pics to reach out via an unsolicited message on social media.
Instead, these folks are simply looking to con you & they will do that (most likely) by using the prepaid card scam that I outlined a little further up.
So the key here is to remember that if an offer sounds too good to be true, it more than likely is.
Never send pictures prior to receiving a payment & never open any accounts or purchase any prepaid cards for the buyer to “put money into”.
Stick To Legit Marketplaces
If you try to transact with buyers directly, you are more likely to get scammed. Therefore, it’s best to stick to legitimate marketplaces.
By sticking to legitimate marketplaces, you can check the feedback of buyers & you can have a bit more protection when it comes to handling payments.
But not every marketplace is legitimate. There are even some scam foot pic selling marketplaces.
So, to stay safe, I recommend sticking with the leading platforms, OnlyFans, InstaFeet and FeetFinder.
Make Privacy a Priority
As somebody selling foot pictures online, the last thing you’d want is for your identity to be revealed. After all, it’s the privacy aspect that makes it most appealing.
So, with that in mind, make sure you:
- Choose a unique username that you don’t use anywhere else
- Hide any tattoos/identifiable objects in your photos
- Never share any personal information, such as your location or occupation
By sticking to those steps, you can sell feet pics safely without having to worry about getting scammed or, worse, getting stalked.
How Much Can You Make a Month Selling Feet Pics?
The harsh truth is that whilst it’s possible to make money selling feet pics, it’s unlikely that you’ll be able to actually earn anything unless you have a huge following & are willing to do it without hiding your identity.
You see, whilst some people make thousands per month by selling feet pics (and some even earn tens of thousands), it’s a tiny minority.
So that you can see that for yourself, take a look at the image below:
That image shows the volume of people that search for “sell feet pics” on Google each month. As you can see, it’s a whopping 29,700 people.
And for selling feet pics, it’s even higher, at 44,900.
But look at the volume for people looking to purchase feet pics:
If you sum up the volume of people selling feet pics & compare it to the number of people that are looking to buy them, you can easily see that it’s wildly competitive.
This means that the idea of selling feet pics anonymously for money is mostly just a pipe dream.
In order to stand any chance of profiting in such a competitive market, you’d have to be willing to reveal your identity & build up a following.
Even then, you’d still only stand a small chance at succeeding & actually earning anything.
That’s why in our guide to selling feet pics online, we concluded that affiliate marketing was a better way to earn money, especially if you’re looking to earn money anonymously.
Why Do People Buy Feet Pics?
As I’ve been researching various money-making methods & stumbling across the world of selling foot pictures, I did come to wonder, why do people buy feet pics?
After looking into the reasons, I actually found myself quite surprised.
To begin with, there’s actually quite a surprisingly large market of businesses looking to purchase feet pictures for marketing purposes.
Alongside that, there are certain cultures in which feet are seen as an object of beauty.
And, as for the rest… Well, I guess they have their own reasons.
But for those looking to sell feet pictures, the good news is that there ARE definitely people out there looking to buy them.
Is Selling Feet Pics Worth It?
Sadly, the answer to this question will be no for most people.
As the feet pic selling marketplace is so competitive, it can be challenging to get anybody to buy feet pics unless you already have a huge following & are willing to reveal your identity.
However, for most people, the allure to selling feet pics is the ability to do it anonymously & make money.
So if that’s what you’re looking to do, then I’m sorry, but in reality, that’s merely a pipe dream.
Based on the search volumes for people looking to sell feet pics & people looking to buy them that I outlined a little further up, I would estimate that less than 5% of people earn anything worthwhile.
Any given the ultra-competitiveness, I would estimate that less than 1% of people who are earning anything worthwhile are doing it anonymously.
So, sadly, for the remaining 95% of people, selling feet pics is not worth it.
A Better Alternative
Whilst earning handsome amounts of money from selling feet pics may be nothing more than just a pipe dream, there are still plenty of other ways you can make money online.
And one of the best ways you can do it is through something known as affiliate marketing.
As an affiliate marketer, you simply connect people with the products or services they’re looking for online & earn handsome commissions in return for any successful sales.
