Unsurprisingly, a holiday that successfully combines revealing costumes, candy, partying, and a dash of the occult for good measure, is a sure favorite here at Pornhub. We’ve covered every holiday from Christmas, Valentines Day and Easter, so and it was high time that our statisticians dig out the Halloween data. To celebrate the spookiest day of the year, we’ve teamed up with our friends over at Mic.com to see which scary search terms tend to increase in popularity leading up to All Hallows’ Eve.

Pornhub & Oktoberfest
Guten Tag! For this latest edition of Pornhub Insights, our statisticians were tasked with digging through some more German stats. This time around, we were curious to see if there were any notable changes in user behavior during the annual Oktoberfest celebrations. This year, the festival took place from September 19th through October 4th, and we indeed noticed some considerable increases in certain types of searches on Pornhub, both in Germany as well as in a few other countries who seemingly also partook in the beer-fueled fun.

Apple vs. Android
September means the beginning of sweater weather, the return of Pumpkin Spice Lattes and the launch of a new iPhone. Now that the highly anticipated iPhone 6s line has finally hit stores and is smashing sales records, the Pornhub statisticians have decided to dig through the data and found out what it is that separates iPhone-wielding Pornhub users from our Android-loyal visitors, in terms of how they interact with the site and what kinds of content they prefer. Currently, just over 60% of our traffic comes from mobile devices, so without any further ado, let’s take a look at what makes each of these major subsets of Pornhub’s viewership tick.

Big Beautiful Data
For today’s installation of Pornhub Insights, our team of statisticians have paired up with Mic.com for a look at changing trends in body types. The concept of the ‘ideal body’ is one that has been quite fluid over the past centuries. When we look back at paintings dating to the Renaissance era, fuller figures are clearly revered and celebrated as beautiful subjects. Fast forward to the mid 1800’s and waists are being tightly cinched down to tiny sizes with corsets, a trend which has interestingly reemerged recently in the midst of the current Kardashian-endorsed waist training fad. On the other hand, 2015 has arguably been a major year for body positivity. Continue reading “Big Beautiful Data”
More of What Women Want
After we initially ran the first installment of What Women Want back in September of last year, we got tons of questions from readers and reporters alike, asking us to go even further and into more depth with regards to the behavior of female Pornhub viewers. As a part of a special collaboration with RedTube (NSFW) as well as our friends over at The Daily Beast, we’re going to be doing exactly that with this installment of Insights. With the number of female viewers continuously growing, the way that members of the fairer sex engage with adult content remains an increasingly fascinating topic to explore. Today we’ll be examining everything from which search terms have increased in popularity among women over the course of the past year, to which countries currently have some of the highest and lowest proportions of female viewers.

My Little Porny: MLP Searches on Pornhub
Bronies are an interesting bunch. They initially emerged as an online community consisting predominantly of males aged 18-35 with a particular reverence for the new generation My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic television show that launched in 2010. Since then, bronies have become the topic of countless articles and documentaries and even convene in hordes (strings?) at annual conventions. Where there is Internet sensation however, there is generally a tieback to porn. For this installment of Pornhub Insights, we’re taking a look at the magical world of My Little Pony (MLP) related searches on Pornhub. The intersection of these two worlds makes for some pretty fascinating data, so let’s clop to it. Continue reading “My Little Porny: MLP Searches on Pornhub”
