Polygon contacted the Insights team to see if the media attention around the game Fortnite has had any effect on Pornhub searches. Our statisticians found that while Fortnite had a slow start on Pornhub, it has steadily gained ground over the last several months to become of of our top video game related search terms.

After Fortnite launched in July of 2017, it only resulted in a handful of searches. Things really picked up at the end of September 2017 when Fortnite’s Battle Royale came out, and they have grown steadily since then. Spikes in search volume seem to coincide with major game updates and news cycles such as the 1.36 patch in January and when 60 FPS was enabled in February.

It was revealed in Pornhub’s 2017 Year in Review that ASMR was one of the top trending searches of the year.

According to Wikipedia, Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR) “is a term used for an experience characterised by a static-like or tingling sensation on the skin that typically begins on the scalp and moves down the back of the neck and upper spine” and that “it is most commonly triggered by specific acoustic or visual stimuli, and less commonly by intentional attention control.”

Perhaps it’s the “acoustic stimuli” and “intentional attention control” that leads to the natural relation between ASMR and JOI. Although JOI stands for Jerk Off Instructions, it’s not meant to be a tutorial video, but rather a type of vocal coaxing that will turn-on the listener and guide their masturbation towards orgasm.
