A pretty interesting post this morning on the online porn industry, searches and user behaviors appeared in the Search Engine Journal.
Anyone in the industry or any one owing adult domains should check it out.
Some of the more interesting points is although more people are searching using the term “porn”, there are only 4 adult sites in the alexa.org top 100.
“The proportion of people searching for porn related material is growing at a smaller rate than the overall online population. In comparison to the number of people getting online, there is less activity in the sex industry and more for social networking and communication”.
I’m pretty happy that the post goes on to discuss the key word “dirty” (guess who owns dirty.com).
The post then goes on to discuss how anyone is going to make money on porn when there is so much “free porn” available.
One thing the author gets bang, regardless of your opinion of porn, is the statement:
“Everyone already knows porn pushes the boundaries on technology”
This has always been true and continues to be true.
I have seen new technology where you can watch six good nice sized video streams at once in your browser.
Try doing that with YouTube.com
If anyone wants the link to the adult site that has this technology , drop me an e-mail and I will send the link to you, as the site is unprotected and available to be viewed by minors I’m not linking to it direct from here.
Go check out the Search Engine Journal Post
I’ll bet you had a dirty smile on your face when you read that :>)
“as the site is unprotected and available to be viewed by minors I’m not linking to it direct from here”
Every minor can find porn in 5 seconds via Google if he wants…this with the link is absurd unless you are some church-brainwashed whatever
MHB,
I’m sure you’ve already heard about this site, but have you ever checked out TheDirty.com ? If you havn’t then you should.
Please send the link.

Every time I write about adult I get a ton of haters.
If you set up your account with thedomains using a real e-mail address I would have sent it to you
Porn pushed domaining also.

MHB: really ? Well you must make “hate mail” section then, is always fun to read hate mails, those people writing them are interesting funny phenomena, I love to read hate mails…
Is it maybe that the “early adopters” of the internet, young men are no longer new to the internet. Its the older generation that are coming online now, those with no desire to look up porn.
