Over the last year, Virtual Reality has been one of the fastest growing categories of videos on Pornhub. Originally launched in the Spring of 2016, Pornhub’s VR content included just 30 videos. Since then, hundreds of new VR videos have been uploaded each month, bringing the total to over 2600 videos by May of 2017. Forbes inquired to see how far VR had penetrated into the daily usage of Pornhub users.
With the increased popularity and accessibility of VR capable devices, VR porn videos are now being watched 500,000 times each day. Compared to other categories, VR visitors typically watch 2 more videos each time they visit Pornhub (11 pages per visit compared to the average 9), while their actual time on site remains about the same at just under 10 minutes. Perhaps the unique visual experience makes them want to test out more new content.
