2016 Presidential Election Survey

We’re doing things a little differently for this special edition of Insights. Normally, the findings we present you guys with consist of anonymized and automatically collected data that’s compiled by our analytics software. As a part of a collaboration with Mic.com, everything that we’re reporting on today has been tallied up following a special survey that was featured on Pornhub over the course of the last few months. The Pornhub Political Survey ran from December 21, 2015 through February 29, 2016 and was completed by over 371,000 Pornhub viewers. Touching on everything from abortion laws to Donald Trump, this special edition report is fascinating in that it shows not only how Pornhub viewers feel about certain key issues leading up to the November election, but also how views have shifted over the course of the past few weeks.

Pornhub Traffic During Super Bowl 50

Pornhub Insights has shown many times before how televised sports events can greatly affect traffic to our site. Take for example our coverage of the NBA, NHL and World Cup.  In 2015 we also found that Super Bowl 49 had caused a major traffic fluctuation during the game, so our friends at the New York Daily News were curious to see if the same held true one year later.  On Sunday February 7, 2016 the Carolina Panthers met the Denver Broncos at Levi Stadium in San Francisco Bay Area to determine who would be the National Football League Champion. In the end, the Broncos came out ahead 24 to 10.
