So I had an idea and built the code, but I feel like I need to find some people to get this up and running really good. I've been a 9-5 software engineer for a long long time but before that I made a killing with EscortDollars so I'm trying to take that model into the 21st century.
It works like this:
- All content is 100% scraped and automated. You know where from but it doesn't have to strictly be that site.
- A user lands on the search page, I resolve their IP to their geo location
- All the listings I have scraped have been mined to get a location
- User sees a nice gallery of escorts sorted by distance, images rotate on mouseover like a tube site
- User views ad, clicks button to get phone number which I've stripped out
- Oh shit, user has to pay to get the phone number (or join a list, IDK yet. You tell me)
I can also of course generate display ads on the fly with actual escorts, but I haven't got there yet. I have all the data I'd need.

What do you think? Could it work? I put about 10 hours into this today so I figured I'd put it out there. I don't have it deployed to a remote box yet but it's on Apache or Nginx with PHP/Kohana, Node.js for the indexing and processing and MongoDB for the database.
Is this even legal?
