Porn Stars Unlock The Potential Of Social Media

It wasn't all that long ago that porn stars relied on word of mouth and personal appearances to promote their films, but with the advent of social media, the biggest stars and directors in the business are able to stay connected to their fans better than ever before.

An article published by XBiz (link below) features tips and tricks from several big names on how to utilize social media to its fullest potential. Vicky Vette, for example, knows how crucial a social media presence is to any performer's career.

"The producers no longer promote girls like they used to. A video is 'released' online as a scene and the hoopla is done in a couple weeks with very little benefit to the girl... Everyone from club owners to producers of adult look at a girl's social networking to make decisions on her 'value' to hire. If you have a ton of followers... trust me... they know it."

Angelina Castro goes one step further, describing Twitter as "the voice inside my head. I reach people on Twitter in ways I could never reach in person. It's freedom of speech and reach."

Deauxma likes to use social media as a way to talk about things outside of the adult industry with her fans.

Adult star Deauxma likes chatting with fans — about everything. She admitted to being a big sports fan and rattles on about music, cooking recipes, politics, anything that comes to mind. Surprisingly, she doesn't talk about her professional life, and revealed that she views that type of chatter as "commercials" — and fans hate commercials. Talking about everyday stuff lets the fan know she's a real person, the girl next door and "not some stuck-up bitch just trying to get their almighty dollar."

It's also become a place for producers to find the next big star, like Puma Swede.

Swede told XBIZ, "It's important to have a place where to post my #selfies #tittytuesday and #tbt pics. And of course an awesome way to stay in touch with my fans and let them know what I'm up to — or down to... #buymybook #mylifeasapornstar."
