PornHub recently released a report showing the site’s performance for the year. One of the highlights is the increasing number of views from mobile phones which is now on 52 percent, up by five percent from the previous year.
PornHub, an adult video sharing website and the third largest porn site in the Internet, published the statistics of the site’s performance. To start with, the researchers announced that the number of visitors on the site jumped to 14.7 billion with 63.2 billion videos viewed.
According to the report, U.S viewers peak in January and dip in August. It seems that the weather influences the viewers’ mood in watching porn. The colder the weather, the more motivated they are to watch porn. On a day-to-day basis, Monday is still considered the most ideal day to watch those videos while Thursday is the least. Most of the searches are related to teen, creampie, and Milf.
Even the average time spent on PornHub became longer this year. American viewers spent an average of 10:39 on the site, up by 39 seconds from the previous year. Well, to be fair enough, other countries displayed an increase on their viewing time as well. Overall, the world average was up by 26 seconds.
The U.S state which spent the longest time watching porn is still Mississippi at 11:47, up by 5 seconds. The shortest time went to Rhode Island at 10 minutes, up by 37 seconds from 2012. Nationwide average time spent watching porn was 10:53, up by almost a minute from 2012.
And finally, the researchers found that there was a decrease on the number of viewers accessing PornHub from their desktops. Most of the traffic generated came from tablets and mobile phones with 10 percent and 52 percent respectively. Both platforms were up by three percent and five percent from 2012.
It is not surprising though that most of the traffic came from non-desktops especially now that smartphones and tablets are dominating the market.
