In honor of everyone’s favorite day to get lucky, Pornhub’s statisticians took a look at how Saint Patrick’s Day affects searches on Pornhub. After the results of our Christmas and Valentine’s holiday reviews, we were expecting a pot of statistical gold from Saint Pat, and we weren’t disappointed.
Winter Storm Stella
On March 14th, Winter Storm Stella rolled into the east coast of North America, bringing with it multiple feet of the white stuff, just days before spring was due to begin. Major cities were brought to a virtual halt, as roads and businesses were either closed or inaccessible for the day. This left millions of people at home with nothing else to do but wait out the storm… and to visit Pornhub! Our friends at Time Out New York checked in to see how people put their time out on Tuesday to good use.
Insights into Ireland’s Regions
We recently had a look at the porn preferences of Irish Women, so in this edition of Pornhub Insights we’ve join with our friends at Joe.ie to reveal how Ireland’s different regions enjoy watching Pornhub.
Women and Tech
International Women’s Day is Wednesday, March 8th, so in this edition of Pornhub Insights we’re once again taking a look at how women consume porn differently than their male counterparts. In the past we’ve studied Women’s Favorite Searches, their love for lesbian (nsfw) and gay porn in our Women Searching for Women and Girls Who Like Boys Who Like Boys posts, and even how women differ in certain countries like Ireland and Colombia.
As we discovered in our recent Year in Review, women account for around 26% of visitors to Pornhub. That level of traffic was enough to cause a massive drop in Pornhub visits during the Women’s March in January 2017. Because some would argue that the medium is as important as the message, in this edition of Insights we will be taking a look at the various technologies that women use to watch porn, and how that compares to men.
Mardi Gras Versus Carnival
Everyone loves a sexy party, especially ones that last for several days and with tens of thousands of people. Mardis Gras and Carnival both share a common root, as a last chance for people to over-indulge in food (and flesh) before the Catholic period of Lent begins.
Although celebrated in many places, Mardi Gras is most often associated with New Orleans, and Rio De Janiero with Carnival. Our friends at Vocativ asked our statisticians to see which of the two festivals gets Pornhub visitors more excited.
What Irish Women Want
The Irish Independent contacted us to see how Ireland’s female visitors to Pornhub stack up compared to their male counterparts and women elsewhere in the world. Ireland ranks 27th worldwide for traffic coming to Pornhub, and has seen a 55% growth in the number of female visitors to the site since mid-2014. On average, Irish women spend 10 minutes and 46 seconds on Pornhub each time they visit, which is nearly a full minute longer than Irish men.
