In my short 6 months in the adult space, my SEO based site is already in the top 200 earners. And I am pretty lazy, that only consists of about 1 or 2 months of actual work (50 articles and 10 links built).

From what I have seen, SEO in adult is really not difficult, you would be struggling to get the same results from SEO in mainstream niches. I think many people here would do well to learn SEO from mainstream SEO based blogs.
