Let’s take the example of Chrissy, a former bartender and hairdresser, who lost her regular job in the lockdown. She now makes $5,000 monthly by selling feet pictures and socks to her clients. She uploads her feet pictures on her website, where she also handles personalized requests, like a particular nail color, or running through the mud bare feet, as in “The Lord of the Rings”, etc. Chrissy does it quite discreetly, without revealing her identity or face. In an interview with the Insider, Chrissy said that her clients also pay for her pedicure or any props needed, as a wholesome service package. 

Then there is Riley, a 21-year-old student, who sells feet pics online to make “easy money”. Unlike Chrissy, she didn’t have any previous job but worked in a lab while studying. In an interview, she confessed that she didn’t have the time for a second job. Selling feet pictures brought her some good dollars to maintain her lifestyle. Although she has been asked by many people to sell her feet pictures on websites, like OnlyFans, Riley doesn’t want to break her identity and is happy with Twitter and Reddit for the time being. 

Today, there are ample examples of women (bloggers, Instagrammers, or both), making several thousands of dollars per year by selling pictures of feet, socks and other foot accessories. Most importantly, there are no legal interferences, as the hustle is 100% legal in the USA, New Zealand, Australia, Canada and most other countries. 

I am wondering what my dirty feet will say about this! And why didn’t I know about this before?

How Much Do Feet Pics Sell For?

Well, that’s the question, right? 

Not to give you a shock, but some women even make $70,000 per year ONLY by selling feet online (Oops! What we meant is, by selling their feet pictures online). From toe pics to videos of running bare feet on grass or mud, they take requests from people having feet fetish or other fantasies. These people then, in turn, give money to buy those pictures from their individual websites or other third-party sites, like FunwithFeet, Feet Finder, InstaFeet, etc. 

According to Chrissy, a creator of erotic content online, a weird fantasy works behind buying and selling feet pics online. By looking at the pictures of feet, the viewers (potential buyers) want to imagine the person, the owner of those feet, to satisfy their fantasies. Chrissy and more like her spend 5-6 hours every day, creating content on request of these buyers, or producing content that will titillate the minds and fantasies of the buyers. And how much do they make by creating and selling such content online? Chrissy admits that she makes over $500 only by selling her used socks to her clients. Wow! Now that’s something, right? 

However, if we are talking only about selling feet pictures online, another 21-year-old digital content creator revealed that she sells her feet pictures online for hundreds of dollars each month, enough to sustain her shopping and other recreational endeavors. Then there is Jessica Gould from Ontario, Canada, who makes about $70,000 annually from pictures of her feet that she uploads on Instagram.

Having 10K followers, it is easy for her to gain high visibility for her feet on social media. She started this side hustle under a different identity on social media and was contacted by some alleged “footboys” (males having a foot fetish), who started sending her custom requests and were ready to pay for the same. 

So yeah, if we look into the bigger picture, in the digital world of today, it is quite possible to make money selling pictures of your feet online. 

What are feet pictures used for? 

As we have learned so far, the trend of selling feet pics online is getting bigger with each passing day. From students to social media influencers, everyone is involved in this trend, earning top dollars with their sexy feet pics on social media. 

But what’s the craze actually about? Why do people pay money for feet pics? 

The reasons are mostly gendered. for example, the buyers of such pictures are mostly men, who have a certain fetish with this particular part of the body, while the people selling these pictures are women. However, aesthetic feet pictures can also be utilized for social media commercials, campaigns, fashion posts, and of course, Instagram advertisements. But this is quite small in number. Companies selling footwear, and other foot products, like nail paint, pedicure products, etc. have a demand for aesthetic foot pictures.

In 2023, you can sell pictures of your beautiful feet online for $10 or $100, depending on the platform and the purpose of selling. there are clients ready to pay more money if your pictures are worth paying for. Like if they find your feet appealing enough to arouse their sensual interests. Yes, it’s weird but true. For example, custom feet pictures may sell for as high as $500 on sites such as OnlyFans and FunWithFeet. 

Besides random customers, fashion publications, stock photography websites, footwear companies, spas, and pedicure companies may be willing to buy aesthetic feet pictures from different influencers to stack digital content for their marketing campaigns. If you have a stock of popular pictures on your profile, you can also be approached by big brands as their fashion ambassador. 

Why is selling feet pics such a huge trend?

There is only one reason why people, mostly women, are selling feet pics online – Money!

But is it just the young adults who are making money selling feet pics on the internet? NO!

At the same time, you will be marketing the brand, thus increasing your chances of becoming an influencer.

Challenges of selling feet pics 

Although selling feet pictures is an affluent business, there are certain challenges that you should be aware of. Before you start looking for the best website to sell feet pics, you should gain sufficient insight into the industry to stay out of trouble. Scroll on!

Scammers, scammers everywhere

The feet pic selling industry is full of scams. You should choose a trusted platform that has high-security protocols to cover your identity. If you do not, your email inbox may be filled with emails from scammers and outrageous people, sending heinous requests. Selling feet pics can be a lucrative business if you are careful enough to prevent such activities. Also, do not share your personal information on any site, as it may be readily available to hackers online. Lastly, you should hide your location as far as possible while selling your feet pics online. It will prevent scammers from identifying you or worse, stalking you. 

Copyright issues 

Be wary of copyright issues and make sure that no one can download or use your pics without your permission. Putting watermarks on the pictures is one way of securing the same. You can also upload low-quality pictures on the website and send the HD ones via mail only after someone has paid for them.  

Online bullying

This is yet another drawback of the feet pic selling industry. You can face bullying from anonymous users, enough to hurt your morale. The best advice will be to keep your head high and ignore the bullies. Of course, you can report them, if the comments violate the terms and conditions of the platform you are using. 

Less money because of anonymity 

As it is a part of the beauty industry, selling feet pics anonymously may get you a lot less money than expected. People would like to know you more and may not be ready to pay for pictures that are uploaded anonymously. The best way to deal with this problem is to set up a profile with your photo (you can choose one that does not have a clear view of your face) to confirm authenticity. But it is better not to give out details, like your real name, your accurate location, or phone number. 

No control over displays

Now this is really hard to control, especially when you have your own website to sell feet pics. You will have little control over the display of your pictures. Hence, it is best to upload snapshots or cropped pictures at first, stating that you will send the original photo only after paying for the same. However, there is a downside to this. People may not be ready to pay for pictures that they do not find appealing enough. That is why it is best to choose a third-party platform with high-security measures to start your foot-selling endeavor. You can build your website after garnering enough audience for the pictures of your feet. 

Overall

Do not disclose your location to prevent scammers or stalkers from harassing you. Opt for a reliable website to start your feet pic selling business, and start small. You will slowly rise up the ladder and build a lucrative business on your feet. 

Best of luck!
