check out this video which came out last Tuesday… 220k views already. It discloses a bunch of “statistics” about internet porn. Who knows if they are real but…. quite the traffic bait.

She deserves it, that was a good presentation.

Holy Crap! I’d like to think those number aren’t real, but then again, I’d like to think that I actually sat through that whole video because of the knowledge I might gain, not just because of some half naked hottie. I’d also like to believe that I’m 6′5″ and not actually 5′6″.
[Reply]
Have you even dabbled in the adult market?
[Reply]
I found this yesterday and of course I sat and watched the whole thing and then checked out her site. Definitely Viral Link Bait.
[Reply]
Wow… the “Footnotes” really cracked me up. Very interesting stats if they’re true. That’s a huge chunk of traffic I’ll never be trying to attract to one of my sites.
[Reply]
Wow, thats the best link bait I’ve ever seen. Awesome concept.
[Reply]
Brilliant. Utterly brilliant.
However I do have one issue to *ahem* raise. Why did she feel the need to qualify her statement that 72% of internet p0rn users are men by stating that 28% are women? I’d kinda guessed that already.
[Reply]
Very well done video. I wonder how much revenue it has generated for her site?
[Reply]
me rikey
I wonder about the annual revenue of porn though, I would think it’s more than 2B?
[Reply]
How do they get these totals anyways?
[Reply]
It must be hot subject of late as 20/20 did a thing on it a week or two ago and the stats were close to that of the video… just CRAZY!
[Reply]
i heard a rumor that you are working on a similar video to show up your stats, and the hot tub was just a teasing…
[Reply]
Funny you mention this! I saw it earlier today out of randomness on some video site!!!!
[Reply]
This is a fantastic presentation of these porn statistics
[Reply]
Thanks for the video, had to post it up on our forums
[Reply]
I think they took that number on one of those 3 sites..

Interesting. Give new meaning to viral video…
[Reply]
As the saying goes “On the Internet, nobody knows you’re a dog.”
[Reply]
Those are sad, sad statistics. Although the numbers are huge, it is unfortunately believable. I overhear enough “porn talk” from my employees to convince me the stats are undoubtedly true.
[Reply]
I bet it took a long time to wash all that ink off of her…
[Reply]
Those sites may have the same stats, but the presentation is much better in this video. I bet it gets seen more on her than on those other sites.
[Reply]
Depends on what she used to wash it off with…ahem
[Reply]
Now THAT is how you make a viral video! Simple, yet very creative!
[Reply]
The only thing they could have done better IMO is change the front tile for the movie to something more “baity”
[Reply]
The numbers make sense, sine most of the world’s internet users are in the US. I employ people and I wonder how often they “goof off” on the job…
[Reply]
Perhaps they wanted to emphasize that 28% of porn users are women to illustrate that the ladies consume a fair share of this stuff too. Check out he site and you can see she does not discriminate.
[Reply]
Not too surprising. There’s a site that has nothing to do with porn that has G-rated “leg shots” of Katie Couric and they get a couple hundred K clicks per month from searches for Katie’s legs … I posted a little thumbnail of her and a mention about her legs in a blog post and -pow- 300% traffic increase that day. Never underestimate to prurience of the average web user
[Reply]
Im interested in hearing an answer to this aswell. They could make it up and if nobody knows the true values then nobody is going to say anything?
Hmm…
[Reply]
guess I should have read more before posting the comment above. Thanks for the links!
[Reply]
Thanks for these stats. Now when I having small talk and I say that 35% of all downloads are pornographic in nature and am asked where I got that stat I don’t have to say that it was written on some 1/2 naked girl’s arm.
[Reply]
do you mean racey?
[Reply]
but still the majority is men… us filty dogs…
[Reply]
so i wonder what the most profiatable niche is on the internet? Jermey care to give an opinion??? ping me
[Reply]
I would believe that it was qualified because it’s something that the general internet population would not of calculated in their head.
[Reply]
Hahaha that’s clever.
[Reply]
Very clever and i enjoyed it
[Reply]
Wow, another sexist video. I’m offended. And just to show you how much I’m offended, I’m going to watch it over and over until I memorize that figure…um wait…I mean those figures. =)
Thanks for the post Shoe
[Reply]
Yes indeed, clever and smart. Somehow, these stats gain immense sex appeal when read off of kelle marie.
[Reply]
This video has been on sooo many sites, it’s like deja vu!
[Reply]
probably more than you should know…
[Reply]
People would be more interested in the story if you used that version, though.
[Reply]
What is the site?…I seen this video on John Chow also..
[Reply]
hmmmmm…. also brings a new angle to bedtime reading!
[Reply]
Wow, it is called marketing!!! That is great idea… Everyone who see this goes to that page and than more people see it and more people goes there. Perfect, I would like to have idea like this.
[Reply]
How many of you actually went to her site after watching the video?
[Reply]
kelle marie is obviously a master marketer or atleast whoever she is paying to do this is.
[Reply]
well, i don’t find 89$/second a lot! I’m sure it’s much more than that, this is a billion if not trillion dollar industry, i think porn industries are the biggest beneficiaries of the internet, everyone has access to it!
[Reply]
I never see porn sites, pls believe me, by the way anyone knows her phone number?
[Reply]
That was a really nice presentation, but those numbers are shocking!!! Sad…
[Reply]
It isn’t a secret that men look at porn more than women. If you think about it, it is alot easier for men to view and get pleasure from it than it is for women. All a man has to do is unzip and sit an watch. Men have everything easy.
[Reply]
Great presentation, I give it a 10!! Really fun and viral!
[Reply]
In the late 90’s THE thing that sold online was porn. I think that has changed A LOT.
[Reply]
I’d give it 9 for the Stats and 8 overall
[Reply]
Quality Video…..5 Stars….. now i’m off to get my video camera, black marker and some sexy ass women….
[Reply]
Nice, it is ultimate link bait I agree but it’s hard to have a quality site unless you have the money and resources.
