Porn Eclipse!
Traffic to xHamster Plummets During Eclipse.
Traffic to xHamster went this across the country during today's solar eclipse … but the differences, like our porn preferences, were regional.
Porn traffic from with a complete or near complete eclipse — like Charleston, SC and Nashville and Portland, OR — dropped as much as fifty percentage points, while cities with less complete eclipses, like New York, Los Angeles and Miami saw much smaller declines.
Below the percentage drop in traffic for the peak hours of the eclipse:
Nashville: 43%
Charleston: 36%
Portland: 35%
Miami: 21%
Los Angeles: 15%
New York: 15%
Chicago: 9%
But that pent-up energy wasn’t wasted. Traffic surged after the eclipse. In the hour after the eclipse, for example, traffic in Portland shot up 85% and in Charleston, 63%.
“It just goes to show that porn stars can never compete with real stars,” said Alex Hawkins, VP of xHamster. “Of course, you won’t burn your eyes looking at ours.”
