How to use this report

3 ways to use these figures
  • Price check. BV puts one new followed link from pornhub.com at $148 (level C): $74 to an unrelated site (×0.5), $185 to a same-topic site (×1.25). A followed editorial link (level A) would be worth up to $1,477 before relevance. A quote far above $185 for a level C link pays for what BV does not measure. · Backlink value · what this means
  • Qualification and risk. Its Site Strength is 90 / 100; the link it usually gives is level C — usually neutralised (a press-release, syndicated, profile or forum link). In the 10 articles we read, 35% of the links to other sites are nofollow, sponsored or ugc. The spam score of its links is 3 (0–100, the linking pages' average), not pornhub.com's own. · How BV is worked out · what this means
  • Traffic reality check. Set any traffic claim beside the Sept 2026 estimate: 1.2B monthly visits, 46% from organic search (555.2M). Visits fell 11% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026. · Traffic in detail · what this means

Is a link from pornhub.com worth placing?

That depends on the kind of link: by BV 2.8, a link from pornhub.com is worth $1,477 as an editorial citation (level A), $739 as a guest, sponsored or listed link (level B), $148 as a press-release, syndicated, profile or forum link (level C), $74 as a network link (level D), before relevance. A price far above $185 for a level C link pays for something BV does not measure, such as the site's own readers.

Source: mxverify BV 2.8 methodology

At about $148 a link, pornhub.com is in the “$100 to $249” value band, with 163 of the 3,369 sites valued on mxverify. 125 sites are in a higher band. The counts are mxverify's own, taken from its directory at the last daily update.

Source: mxverify's own directory, counted at the last daily update

How much traffic does pornhub.com get?

pornhub.com gets about 1.2B visits a month (Sept 2026), by a modelled estimate of all its visitors, not analytics measured on the site. 46% of them (555.2M) come from organic search. Visits fell 11% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026.

In short: pornhub.com draws about 1.2B visits a month, down 11% since Jul 2026.

Source: third-party traffic estimate, Sept 2026

Does pornhub.com pass Core Web Vitals?

Yes: real Chrome users see pornhub.com's largest content load in 1.5 s (LCP), and every vital reported for it is at Google's good level. The figures are from the Chrome UX Report (CC BY 4.0), the 75th percentile of real visits. Core Web Vitals describe how a page feels to its visitors; BV does not use them.

In short: pornhub.com passes Core Web Vitals on real-user data.

How old is pornhub.com?

The domain pornhub.com was registered in 2000, 25 years ago. Domain age is a fact from the registry record, not a measure of a site's quality.

Source: the public registration record; RFC 9083: RDAP JSON responses

Has pornhub.com been audited?

No link placed on pornhub.com has been audited yet, so this report shows no rates for how its links behave. Its backlink value comes from site-level figures (its authority rating, traffic and our reading of its articles), not from audited placements.

In short: pornhub.com's report is valued, not audited.

How BV is worked out

Site Strength 90 / 100 · level C · each factor and link type

A followed editorial link from pornhub.com would be worth up to $1,477 under BV 2.8, before relevance: its Site Strength is 90 out of 100. The link it usually gives is level C, worth about $148 — and relevance to the site it points to moves that between $74 and $185.

How pornhub.com links out: the full reading

10 articles read · each link counted

Read by mxverify on 20 October 2026: the homepage and 10 articles (1 from its feed, 9 from across its sitemap). This is our own reading of the site, not a vendor's figure, and it is what places a new link on the A–D scale until links placed here are audited.

Strong sample 46 links to other sites across 10 articles. Strong takes six or more articles and thirty or more links, spread over at least two months where the articles are dated.

Links its articles make to other sites
  • Followed65%
  • Nofollow35%
  • Sponsored0%
  • User-generated (ugc)0%

46 links to other sites across 10 articles, share buttons left out. BV counts 35% of a new link's weight at most C, because that share of the site's own links is nofollow, sponsored or ugc.

  • Advertising · “Advertise”

Articles read

Jev, the model that judges every link in a bklink audit, reads these pages as a site whose links are mostly level A — A 49%, B 8.0%, C 41%, D 2.0%. Put together with what kind of site it is, how established it is, whether it sells placements and how it links out, a new link here is priced as A 0%, B 0%, C 100%, D 0%.

Jev reads it as a platform where users post (97%), thin or made for links as a source (64%), and selling guest, sponsored or paid posts (56%).

Limitations: what this report does not show

5 stated plainly
  • No link on this publication has been audited yet, so nothing here describes how its links behave.
  • A link that is followed is not necessarily a link search engines value; this record does not measure rankings or traffic.
  • The BV score is what one new followed link from pornhub.com is worth to rankings, from its Site Strength and the kind of link on offer. It is not a price, and it does not predict what a link will do for a particular site: relevance to that site moves it between half and one and a quarter times.
  • Traffic figures come from a third-party traffic source, named with its date in the evidence box above; no one outside a site sees its analytics.
  • pornhub.com's visits fell 11% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026. Half of Site Strength is organic search traffic, so a fall that lasts lowers BV when the figure is next read.
