Just how big are porn sites?
 
Good article and up to date, not using that outdated shit from 2001

Just how big are porn sites?

"To put that 800Gbps figure into perspective, the internet only handles around half an exabyte of traffic every day, which equates to around 50Tbps ? in other words, a single porn site accounts for almost 2% of the internet?s total traffic. There are dozens of porn sites on the scale of YouPorn, and hundreds that are the size of ExtremeTech or your favorite news site. It?s probably not unrealistic to say that porn makes up 30% of the total data transferred across the internet.

The internet really is for porn."

wtf he took long time to get that,

The number of Tbps means nothing. It's the amount of $$$ that are spent that matters. Yes we have 100 million (example) surfing free porn sites every day, hour, minute. And 1-20,000 might just have a credit card to hand.

Well done all you clever people who understand Internet marketing. </sarcasm>

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a person in possession of a fast internet connection must be in want of some porn.

While it?s difficult domain to penetrate ? hard numbers are few and far between ? we know for a fact that porn sites are some of the most trafficked parts of the internet. According to Google?s DoubleClick Ad Planner, which tracks users across the web with a cookie, dozens of adult destinations populate the top 500 websites. Xvideos, the largest porn site on the web with 4.4 billion page views per month, is three times the size of CNN or ESPN, and twice the size of Reddit. LiveJasmin isn?t much smaller. YouPorn, Tube8, and Pornhub ? they?re all vast, vast sites that dwarf almost everything except the Googles and Facebooks of the internet.

While page views are a fine starting point, they only tell you that X porn site is more popular than Y non-porn site. Four billion page views sure sounds like a lot, but it?s only when you factor in what those porn surfers are actually doing that the size and scale of adult websites truly comes into focus.
Xvideos, YouPorn, Tube8, and Pornhub all giving porn away for free.v Is the Live Jasmin figures based on the pop ups/unders?

Quote:
YouPorn hosts ?over 100TB of porn?, and serves ?over 100 million? page views per day. All told, this equates to an average of 950 terabytes of data transfer per day, almost all of which is streaming video. This is around 28 petabytes per month, which means our 29PB estimate for Xvideos is on the low side; it probably serves 35 to 40PB per month.

So there's 100 million people looking at porn every month, and only 5 of them are paying for it.

No, 200 million people looking at porn every month, and 270,000 of them are paying for it. 1:740 overall. And out of 60 billion hits, so the pageview to signup ratio overall is 1:200,000.

Since most paid sites are porn sites, porn has always had a larger percentage of the money than of the traffic. In the mid 90s, before mp3, ebay, and amazon, about 80% of the traffic and 90% of the money. Now, 30%-40% of the traffic and 50% of the money.
