The median profile in our catalog has 2,752 likes. The top one has 13,089,696. Here is where the line sits between a page with an audience and a page with a number.
Likes are the only public engagement number OnlyFans exposes, so everyone leans on them. The problem is that nobody knows what a normal number looks like, which makes any figure sound impressive.
Here is the distribution across 182,191 profiles.
| Position | Likes |
|---|---|
| Median (50th percentile) | 2,752 |
| 90th percentile | 47,983 |
| 99th percentile | 388,659 |
| Highest in the catalog | 13,089,696 |
Half of all profiles sit under 2,752 likes. That is the real middle, and it is much lower than most people guess.
The thresholds worth remembering
51,623 profiles have crossed ten thousand likes. That is 28.3% of the catalog, so ten thousand is a real signal but not a rare one.
9,259 profiles have crossed a hundred thousand, or 5.1%. A hundred thousand likes puts a page in roughly the top 5%. The genuine top 1% starts near 388,659, which is a different scale entirely.
At the very top, one profile carries 13,089,696 likes. Numbers like that come from years of cross-posting on other platforms, not from anything happening inside OnlyFans.
4,841 profiles have zero
Some are brand new. Some were never really launched. Either way, a zero is not an insult, it is an absence of information, and you should read it as "unknown" rather than "bad".
Where likes mislead you
Likes accumulate. They never go down. A page that was busy in 2023 and abandoned in 2024 keeps every like it earned, and the counter says nothing about whether anyone posts there now.
That is the single biggest trap in sorting by popularity. High likes plus a dead page is a common combination, and the like count cannot warn you about it. Read the five checks before you commit.
The median moves with the tag
A number that is unremarkable in one niche is exceptional in another. Streamer profiles run a median of 12,393 likes, more than four times the catalog middle, because those creators arrive with an audience already built somewhere else. So compare a page against its own tag, not against the 2,752 above.
Which tags reach the top has the category-by-category version, and Top OnlyFans is this sort applied to everything at once.

87,760 profiles never told us where they are. We have no posting frequency, no earnings, and no way to tell an active page from an abandoned one. Read our numbers with that in mind.
