ALTERNATIVES
Similar sites to YouPorn include Redtube, Tube8, Tubesafari, and Eporner.
DESCRIPTION
The youporn.com homepage showed me that it was a porn tube site because it had video titles beneath the thumbnails which means the thumbnails open the videos on single post pages on the same domain. My first impression was that the youporn.com layout reminded me of Pornhub. Interestingly, the first video I checked out was a Pornhub video (it had the Pornhub ad/watermark at the start of the video). Directly beneath the video player was a banner ad that was for premium porn. I clicked the link to check how they meshed premium porn with this porn tube and it was an ad sponsored by brazzersnetwork.com, which tells me that it’s a standard banner ad which is fine provided that the link for the ad is set to no follow. A sponsored link like this shouldn’t ever be passing on link juice or it goes against Google’s webmaster guidelines. When I inspected the link, I didn’t see it set to no follow. All related videos were beneath the video player. To the right of the 4video player were 2 more banner ads. I recommend removing at least one of those banner ads in the sidebar and replacing it with a related content widget because you need to encourage more clicks above the fold that remain on your website rather than directing your traffic to other domains. When you direct traffic to other domains, it’s not a signal that you have good content; it’s a sign that someone else does. So you have to limit the number of these links to other domains you have above the fold and always ensure you have links to your own web pages mixed in with the networked links.
HISTORY
As of December 2023, youporn.com has 151.3 million monthly views (187.6 million Dec 2022), according to Similar Web. The Wayback Machine estimates that youporn.com was founded on July 17, 2006. The Internet Archive has saved youporn.com 33,573 times between July 17, 2006, and February 20, 2023. It got decent traffic in 2006 and 2007 but was hardly crawled between 2008 and 2011. Crawling picked up a lot throughout 2011 and has been very high since, suggesting the site has been getting lots of traffic since then.
Is youporn.com Safe?
Here, I analyzed youporn.com for malware and malicious content to check if it was legit or a scam:
I checked youporn.com on Sucuri, and it returned with no major issues.
Sucuri says there was one 404 Not Found site issue on the URL https://www.youporn.com/pornstar/{1}/; however, that didn’t prevent it from scanning the rest of the site.
Security hardening flaws:
- Missing security header for
ClickJacking Protection. Affected pages:
https://www.youporn.com/_xa/ads_batch?ads=true&clientType=mobile&channel[context_page_type]=default&channel[site]=youporn&site_id=30&device_type=tablet&hbresp=header&hb=0031c670-b2be-11ed-b1a7-a0369f4f0c7c&data=[{“spots”:[{“zone”:2545},{“zone”:2547}]}]&dm=www.youporn.com/_xa
I then ran a parasite scan with Unmask Parasites on youporn.com, and it is clean.
I also checked youporn.com on VirusTotal, and it is clean; however, it does have a low community score.
In conclusion, Sucuri says youporn.com doesn’t have malware. Unmask Parasites says youporn.com is clean of parasites. VirusTotal and Sucuri say youporn.com isn’t malicious or blacklisted. OVERALL GRADE: Relatively Safe.
