It seems like it would be really hard to make money in adult on twitter.

It seems like mainstream would be so much easier on twitter. I'm thinking about starting up a crypto or weight loss blog and coding up a replicable twitter bot to cross-post niche-specific articles from google news, retweet from niche-specific accounts, and follow users who engage with other niche-specific accounts.

I just don't see much potential in twitter for adult...who goes to twitter for porn?
That's really what I was wondering. Though I'm selling phone sex, what guy wants to follow me unless he's a total schmuck loser with no friends. I'd be embarrassed to follow a phone sex company if I was a halfway normal guy. I wouldn't be embarrassed to follow a porn star though. I'm wondering if only the views, link clicks and engagements are really what matters and that's where the focus should be.

Thoughts anyone?
