Redtube & Brazil

Eae galera! With the arrival of the much anticipated Carnaval do Brasil, the Redtube team decided it was time to crunch the numbers and look at the viewing habits of our fans in Brazil, the country ranking 2nd in terms of traffic volume to our site. The trends in searches and traffic during Carnival drastically change. As you will see, Brazilians can take the party from the streets to the Redtube search bar.

Furthermore, we are also offering our Brazilian fans some general data on their porn habits. Thanks to our statisticians, we discovered that Brazilians enjoy being on top. As you’ll notice from our coverage, Brazil seems to excel in more than one explored trend! Without further ado, let’s see what the numbers had to say, starting with Carnival trends.

United Kingdom vs Storm Gertrude

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

Fitness porn is a popular genre among Pornhub viewers, and yoga related videos in particular have been on the rise the last few years. In fact, yoga searches have nearly doubled since 2012. 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. Our friends at Stylist.fr asked us to take a look at the popularity of yoga porn. Continue reading “Gaga For Yoga Porn”

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”

Star Wars Searches on Pornhub

Quite often, real-life events can have a drastic effect on the type of porn people search for. For this intergalactic edition of Insights, we’ve teamed up with our friends over at Metro US . “Star Wars” is already a popular search term on Pornhub, and various parody and tribute scenes can be found on our site. So it was no surprise that searches relating to Star Wars began to increase after the official trailer for “The Force Awakens” was released on October 19, 2015. At the time, searches went up 2.5 times the usual volume. In the days leading up to and after the December 18 movie premiere, searches went through the roof – up 1854% above average daily search volumes. Continue reading “Star Wars Searches on Pornhub”
