Social media influencers have the power to shape the thoughts, attitudes, behaviors, and even the direction of a specific market or industry.
The revolutionary thing about social media is that the usual criteria to become an influencer are no longer relevant.
In fact those who have the most power and influence in their field are the ones that have won the hearts and minds of their respective niche.

In short, any influencer can make, or even break a business with a series of tweets. That’s why anyone in the industry should be very aware of the top 50 social media influencers in porn.

These awards rival the AVN awards as the ultimate achievement in the industry.
Perhaps that is what every social media influencer should remember, this is a multi-billion dollar industry, what they say can have a huge impact on others. That’s a lot of responsibility to carry.
I’ve been in the industry for 20 years, and just a skim through your graphic, it’s pretty flawed. Just because someone has the most followers, doesn’t make them the top influencers. It’s all about engagement and actual real influence. There are plenty out there with tons of paid for or worthless followers. Besides… in many ways the webcam industry has way overtaken the porn industry.
Thanks for your comment Jay. The list had to be based on a measurable metric and so total number of twitter followers for each influencer was used. I agree it might not be actual influence which is difficult to define especially for a list. However it does show who has the most potential social media reach. Flawed yes, but worthless? I don’t agree.
