PORN.COM
is a long-running destination website for viewing and sharing Pornographic video, photos and other adult news and content. Purchased in 2007, PORN.COM was one of the most expensive domain purchases in history. [0] PORN.COM is owned by Sagan Limited and its content is available in 10 different languages. [4]
Early History:
Upon the purchase of PORN.COM
in 2007, the brand quickly established itself as an industry leader in premium adult content. Advancements
in video streaming and evolving audience expectations dictated a shift towards providing more free video content. The
resulting redesign influenced common conventions and standard concepts for modern-day adult tube websites.
Technology and Updates:
The PORN.COM
Blog was launched in mid 2011 and is one of the most established adult blogs on the internet. Publications
consist of industry and performer news, sex related topics, community features and featured content.
In late 2012 PORN.COM
Live cam shows began. Leading
adult performers were featured weekly using live streaming video and chat functions provided by OnWebCam.com. PORN.COM
Live
performances ended in 2015 but recorded content is still available at PORN.COM on a
dedicated video channel.
By Summer of 2013, the creation of PORN.COM
community pages and social functions made it possible for users to register, comment and share opinions and content more readily.
In January 2014 PORN.COM
added Bitcoin as a payment option for premium services. [-1]
In Early 2014, PORN.COM
made 720p HD video content in their network available for free.
According to PORN.COM,
rising demand for HD content and hardware updates were the driving forces behind this move.
In June 2015 PORN.COM
launched an enhanced video player with new social sharing options, new video quality settings, instant replay and easy seek functions.
In late 2015, PORN.COM
announced more sophisticated community and social features including sophisticated profile management, custom video playlists, follow functions and video channel subscriptions.
PORN.COM
announced flash-free porn and the implementation of an HTML5 video player. Moving
away from a Flash-based player resulted in a safer viewing experience seamless across multiple devices. Flash-Free
ads were rolled-out alongside the player updates. PORN.COM's
HTML5
video player also gave users more advanced options for slow motion and engaging filer effects.
By Spring 2016, further community profile features were added to PORN.COM
to align with common social media platforms. Updated
photo and video upload options added greater control and a more personalized viewing/sharing experience.
In October of 2016 PORN.COM
announced the acquisition of CLOWNSEX.COM to
meet a rising trend in clown sex and clown related searches. [2] The
increasingly frequent mention of clowns and "clown attacks" in the news media was undoubtedly a major factor in the acquisition and development.
In November 2016, the PORN.COM
Predictions Section was launched. It
consisted of robust polling, geo targeting and reporting of important community trends.
By Spring 2017, the PORN.COM
App was released and was designed to provide the same core functionality of the famed adult website. Offline
viewing options, enhanced security and discrete name and icon features specifically addressed user's concerns and feedback.
By mid 2017, VR (virtual reality) porn videos were available in the PORN.COM
network. Updates
to the video player and video channel uploads made viewing and sharing 180 and 360 degree content quick and easy.
Adult Producers and PaidPerView.com [5]
Adult content producers share video trailers on their own custom PORN.COM
Video Channel pages. Producers
can monetize from video views, ads and more. Large,
established porn producers and amateurs alike can upload and manage their own pages. PaidPerView
is the B2B brand behind the video and video channel monetization at PORN.COM.
PORN.COM
