Browsing online porn is somewhat akin to to shopping at a Whole Foods: expansive, overwhelming, and filled with what appears to be 1,000 different versions of the same item. Still, when you look at individual porn sites, the numbers are staggering: many cater to audiences of hundreds of thousands (or even millions) per day. The fact that it’s incredibly easy to find free online porn makes it all the more overwhelming.
So what are the most popular porn sites on the internet? Here are some of the most popular ones, based on U.S. unique monthly visitors, according to Alexa.com. (Note: monthly uniques is different from total pageviews.)
Pornhub
U.S. Alexa rank: 13
Estimated monthly unique visitors in the United States: 25.4 million
If the world of internet porn was Mt. Olympus, Pornhub would surely reign as Zeus. The king among kings of the porn world, Pornhub has an extensive video library running the gamut from grainy cell phone amateur smut to high-def, red-carpet style glamour porn. This is basically the Library of Congress of Porn.

Corey Price, VP of Pornhub sums up the website’s appeal thusly: Pornhub “provides the most tailored experience to the audience’s needs…[and is] extremely dedicated to accommodating audience requests for content, and even provides things like closed captioning, marketplace, AI-assisted search and more.” Or it’s a huge website that offers free porn. Either one, really.
XVideos
U.S. Alexa rank: 38
Estimated monthly unique visitors in the United States: 18.5 million
Xvideos is a one-stop shop for certain niche tastes. Its top categories include “hardcore, ‘punish’ porn, [and] public sex,” according to its Alexa summary.
U.S. Alexa ranking: 43
Estimated U.S. monthly unique visitors: 19.1 million
Chaturbate is one of the most popular camming platforms in the now-$1 billion webcam industry, featuring live streams of couples and solo performers. It’s perhaps best known for its token system, which allows viewers to purchase tokens and redeem them as “tips” for cam performers, encouraging them to perform various sex acts in real time.
LiveJasmin
U.S. Alexa ranking: 50
Estimated U.S. monthly unique visitors: 16.2 million
RELATED: What Type Of Porn Viewer Are You?
Everyone remembers their first encounter with LiveJasmin: you’d open your porn site du jour, only to be interrupted by the faint sound of a woman talking in a phantom pop-up behind your browser window. The free site provides HD live sex cam shows with more than 2,000 models around the world.
Xnxx.com
U.S. Alexa ranking: 75
Estimated monthly unique visitors in the United States: 16.3 million
Do we necessarily need another tube site offering free porn on the internet? No! Are people super into free porn? Yup! (Interestingly, this site is ranked higher than both the Huffington Post and Target.com. America: where we value orgasms over wry political commentary and buying a comforter for your daughter’s college dorm room!)
SpankBang
U.S. Alexa ranking: 97
Estimated monthly unique visitors in U.S.: 12.6 million
