Last week Pornhub Insights looked at site traffic after Snowzilla (aka Storm Jonas) landed on the coast of the United States. We found major increases in traffic in East Coast cities going as high as 25% over average in Washington D.C. When storm Gertrude hit the United Kingdom just one week later, Metro UK asked if our U.K. friends had the same tendency to stay home and chill out with Pornhub rather than chilling outside.

Gaga For Yoga Porn

When Pornhub Insights last looked at the most searched for occupations on Pornhub we found that Gymnast and Yoga Instructor were not far behind popular choices like Teacher, Babysitter and Nurse.

Pornhub & Snowzilla
From January 22nd to 24th, 2016 the mighty Snowzilla – aka Winter Storm Jonas – hit the East Coast of the United States with a vengeance, leaving major cities in a state of virtual shut-down. With nowhere to go, and plenty of time on their hands, people chose to put their hands to good use and headed to Pornhub – much more than usual. Since we found similar traffic trends during last January’s winter storm Juno, the gentlemen at GQ.com asked us to do some more digging after Jonas. Continue reading “Pornhub & Snowzilla”
Digging Deep Into Minecraft
Pornhub Insights has often revealed how television, sports, movies and video games have an effect on the porn habits of our users. Take for example our Insights on My Little Pony, Porn Parodies and the release of Fallout 4.
Our friends at Venture Beat asked us to do some digging for Minecraft trends, and we quickly discovered that it’s no exception. Released in 2011, Minecraft has sold over 70 million copies worldwide making it the third best-selling game of all time. Almost any device you can put your hands on is able to play Minecraft – much like watching Pornhub. Continue reading “Digging Deep Into Minecraft”

Hong Kong & Pornhub
The last time that the Pornhub statisticians crunched numbers in Asia was back when we got to work in India. Luckily enough, a special collaboration with our friend over at Time Out Hong Kong has brought us back out east. As you’ve come to expect from the Pornhub team, we’re coming at you today with everything from what our users in Hong Kong are searching for the most when they visit Pornhub, to which devices they most use to access the world’s largest adult site. Without further ado, here is the Hong Kong installment of Pornhub Insights. Continue reading “Hong Kong & Pornhub”
