What kind of fic sells most, in your experience? I write fanfic and I was considering opening up a bio shop but fic! I could totally also write fic! But... I mostly write gen, small fandoms, and rarepairs, and am terrible at porn, so uh. I kind of assume that's a problem.
There's a wide market. If you're alright with writing NSFW/kinks, I don't suggest using FR as an advertising platform per se, but there's definitely a lot of people who'd be interested (and some would pay with RLC) for it.
For you though, since you mentioned stuff you write, rarepairs and small fandoms are definitely pretty good markets. Small fandoms you'd have to find the people to sell to, which is a pain, but definitely rarepairs. There is almost always a market for rarepair fluff fanfiction, depending on your fandoms.
