hey Mayya, long time no talk. hope you're doing awesome

in regards to your OP and the advice thus far: if you're making your money with content I'm assuming it's not only on OF. if so, get started posting your content on any decent and solid payout site. my policy has always been let anything I make serve quintuple duty at minimum (clips for diff sites, pics grabbed from vids to use wherever, shortened clips for promo etc)

if you want a list of viable clip sites just PM me

ALWAYS watermark your content. I tend to choose bottom left as I find that more aesthetically pleasing, but also easiest to cover. upper ight corner is least likely to get re-watermarked

piracy will always be a thing, there's not much you can do about it but for using a LEGIT company (peeps here can recommend them) or do them yourself, for DMCA takedowns. if the site doesn't respond or takedown, go to their host, contact their billing co's...be a thorn in their side and they'll eventually move on. that's been my experience at least

in terms of the social media/communication services where people pretend to be you, again, pretty common. at least take pride in that you're worth trying to steal from. small comfort, I know

won't pretend to be an expert, but again, hopefully those more well schooled can offer tips on how to take down illegit accounts pretending to be you. based on their advice, you can either do it yourself a or hire a LEGIT (see how I keep stressing that word) agency to pay to do it for you

before paying anyone, ask here first about their rep. yeah it's the zoo but we don't lead people astray

in terms of a studio, do you mean a physical studio? or a virtual one? if the latter please hold on to your ethics and don't go there. at least with a physical studio you're offering a service; something that performers wouldn't have without you

keep the contracts clean, pay them very well and s'all good

I wish you the best, you're a cool woman. and blessed with what nature gave you plus your biz acumen you'll go far. just don't fall into traps of loser DMCA co's or economically exploiting those who work with you

happy you're safe. wish ya all the best
