Nintendo’s Pokemon Go mobile game was released in the United States on July 6, and quickly became a worldwide phenomenon. As we soon found out with our friends at Mashable, this immediately lead to an increase in Pokemon searches on Pornhub. As of July 11, searches were 136% above the daily average prior to the launch of the game. As the game is released in other worldwide markets, we expect to see similar increases.
Euro 2016 Final Match
On July 10, Portugal became the Euro 2016 champions after defeating France 1-0 in the final match of the series. Fans in Portugal, France and indeed all of Europe and the world were glued to their screens as the two teams faced off in a heated match. In the past, Pornhub has seen major traffic fluctuations during events like the Superbowl and NHL and NBA finals, so our friends at LAD Bible asked our statisticians to see what effect the Euro finals may have had.
Wedding Porn: Cumming Together
Love and marriage, love and marriage. They go together like a… Porno video? The new movie Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates was just released, so with that in mind Bustle asked the Pornhub Insights team to take a look at porn searches related to weddings. So please join us as we come together to celebrate this holy faprimony.
Patriotic Porn – America vs Canada
For both Americans and Canadians, the beginning of July is a time for celebration with family, friends and neighbors. July 1st is Canada Day up North, and July 4th is Independence Day down South. In both countries, citizens show their national patriotism by enjoying the sunshine, drinking beer and stuffing lots and lots of hot wieners into buns. Our friends at Bustle asked if the abundance of national patriotism has an effect on each nation’s porn habits, and which country shows their stars, stripes or maple leafs more strongly?
Austria and the Euro 2016
Heute.at contacted us to see how traffic to Pornhub was affected when Austria tuned into the Euro 2016 games. Of course Austrians were most interested in the games in which Austria was playing, with a drop of nearly 30% during Match 36 on June 22 against Iceland. There was an equal amount of interest in Match 34 between Hungary and Portugal, similar to the 28% drop for Match 24 when Portugal played Austria.
Orange is the New Fap
Season 4 of Orange is the New Black premiered on Netflix on Friday, June 17 so our friends at Cinema Blend asked if the show had any effect on Pornhub visitor’s habits. Because the whole season arrived at once, we can only assume that fans binge watched it over the next 3 days. Everyone needs a break though, and it seems that people found plenty of time for Pornhub in between episodes.
