Looking for some advice and input into my idea.

The concept:

A daily email newsletter
-contains ~3 interesting GQ/Popular Mechanics/Weird news headlines
-contains 5-6 static NSFW images + a gif. Each one links out to a gallery somewhere.

I know email is very old school. But that's the idea - not too many others in this market right now, and once the list is large enough it means pushing my message to a lot of eyes every day.

I've already got it up and running and it has grown to 400 double-opt-in subscribers in about 2 months. Complying with can-spam laws and getting in-boxed has been easy. The open rates are acceptable at 20-30%.

For the moment totally focused on growth, but I'd thought this would grow a lot faster and I'm disappointed with the result.

I've done some ad buying on TrafficJunky (abysmal results on every creative/landing page I could dream up) and posting on Twitter, which has been the main source.

Are there any other sources to find potential subscribers? Are viewers totally opposed to seeing porn in their inbox, or giving their email address to an adult site?
