Is FB the reason for the decline in porn sales?

That's 2012

Robbie, you are the last person on earth I would debate porn stats with, but he does place a construction on it that says that people in the 18-24 group are sending less traffic to porn. It may be that they go to Manwin by habit, or it may be that they've been looking at the same shit since they were 12 and are tired of it. I'd say the latter is at least possible. That age group does everything "together" from texting an average of 110 times a day to online gaming to facebook et al their lives are very public. Even as far as porn, which to them has been largely destigmatized, they may not want the solo empty experience. They may crave peer contact, and a classic porn scene doesn't provide that. I'm not a sociologist, but it seems plausible.

Google searches for porn in the US have gone up substantially in the last 5 years... not decreased. Anyone that makes PPC or SEO their business, is well aware of this. Anyone who has done neither, makes absurd and baseless claims.

Google Keyword Tool, Today:
porn: 101,000,000 monthly searches (US) - 610,000,000 (Global)

just 4 years ago it was in the XX,XXX,XXX
only a few years before that X,XXX,XXX

So as usual, you are so desperate to proclaim everyone wrong and tubes the root of all evil that you end up making baseless and asinine claims which you know nothing about.

QFT

Back to the thread.

So FB is getting tons of traffic from people who would prefer to jerk off to a lot of random pics on it, that are at best titillating, who used to buy.

Rather then go to a Tube and jerk off to all the porn the industry puts out for them to consume for free. And possibly 1-10,000 approx buy.

And FB is to blame?

I would have to ask how he comes up with those stats? Most folks surf porn privately and deny it when you ask them if they do it. So how did he come up with his stats?

The only thing I can see him doing is getting data from a search engine and seeing the percentage of people searching for certain porn words...maybe even just the word "porn".
Which of course doesn't even begin to cover the hundreds of keywords and niches that people search for.

Anyway...I'm just saying that I think his stats may be correct...but his conclusion is not.
My analytics don't show any decline in the 18 to 24 age group at all over the last 4 years (I didn't have Google analytics set up before that)

Plus I wonder what he's considering "porn". A LOT of people now spend their time on webcam sites instead of "porn sites". If anything I'd say that would take more away from pre-recorded vids and pictures than going to FaceBook.

I know I go to Facebook, and twitter, and Tumblr, and a bunch of others everyday.
But I also go to Musicians Friend, BHPhotoVideo, a pro wrestling website, and of course..porn.

I don't think people just go to Facebook and don't ever surf anything else. I think they go to FaceBook AND surf everything else too.
Heck right now I have Facebook open in another tab.
GFY in one tab, FB in one tab, and the online admin to one of my sites in another tab. And I'm going back and forth between tabs and I'm about to open my bank account on a new tab to check my balance.

That's just the way people surf and multi-task.

FACEBOOK is the biggest DATING SITE ever made.

And it's FREE...

I think FACEBOOK should be 18+ to avoid all the perverts tricking under 18 girls every day. I mean, after all, dating sites are 18+. That's the part I hate about FACEBOOK and unfortunately we see many cases of abuse on a daily basis on every country.

Let's see who is the first pervert to quote me and hate me for saying this last part. You will be full exposed, you fucking pervie.

who the hell jacks off to FB photos?

THIS

facebook ads should accept adult ads on some profiles, you can bet to make cash with all idiots there. The average FB user is not so smart or skilled like forum users.

The only people who would do that would be the sickos jerking to under-age

If you want to jerk off to a photo...all you have to do is go to google images and you can see any niche of girl (or guy) naked and fucking if you want.. FaceBook isn't required.

But FB isn't about that anyway. It truly IS a social network. My daughters have a huge network of friends that they play online games with and spend a lot of time on there.

But just as I said earlier...they ALSO surf all over the web and usually have several tabs open and flit back and forth between tabs and different chat programs they have open talking with their friends.

People definitely aren't monolithic in their surfing habits

do you even have a facebook account ? run any pages there yourself ?

if you think the only people whacking it to facebook pics are 'sickos' then you have a lot to learn

maybe get paul to give you a facebook tute

Yes, and we make a ton of money on sales from FaceBook. I know exactly what I'm doing on there.

And yes..people jerking off to FaceBook pictures are either stupid or sick. There's way too much free actual porn out there to be jerking it to a picture on Facebook.

Maybe YOU should get tutored on everything that has to do with making money.

I can totally see that . Since it has been triangulation confirmed that social media are the new marketing territories I suppose that could be the explanation. Perhaps the way they arrive at the destination has changed.

They never will. So the alternative is to start a porn FB where we can attract the millions who are interested in porn to social network with us and we can be free to promote ourselves.

but that would need innovation, thought and planning. So never going to happen.

Or will it?

I am not proposing people give up on their activities on OB, Twitter, etc. Just we build a home for us where we can target better.

It's GOOGLE! Google is to blame. I think we should all boycott, right away, to save the porn industry!
