Lesson 4.3 - Your Primary Platform Recommendation
Your primary platform recommendation is the platform that scores highest across the weighted 7-factor assessment. The decision tree:
- If Factor 1 (Content Comfort) scores 8+, NSFW platforms are eligible. Then weight Factor 5 (Earnings Architecture): Spiked private = LiveJasmin 0r Streamate. Performance tips + token economy = Stripchat, Chaturbate, Camsoda, Bongacams.
- If Factor 1 scores 5-7, PG-13 mainstream platforms with NSFW expansion path. Twitch IRL or TikTok Live primary, with eventual NSFW secondary if interest develops.
- If Factor 1 scores 1-4, SFW only. Factor 3 (Format) decides: Gaming = Twitch. Long-form content = YouTube Live. Performance = TikTok Live. Mixed/Just Chatting = Twitch IRL.
- If Factor 6 (Long-term) is "build a brand" or "build IP", tilt toward platforms with VOD-replay value (YouTube Live > Twitch).
- If Factor 6 is (Long-term NSFW) "maximize income", LiveJasmin and funnel to Onlyfans or Fansly.
- If Factor 6 is "maximize near-term/fast income", tilt toward NSFW premium (Streamate - weekly pay or Cam4 - can do daily) regardless of other factors, assuming Factor 1 supports.
- If Factor 4 (Schedule) is under 10 hours/week, pick a platform that does not punish low cadence: TikTok Live, NSFW casual platforms.
The output: ONE primary platform name. Commit to it for 90 days minimum before evaluating fit.
