AltPorn.net has gotten a lot of mail from people who miss our AltPorn Traffic and Rankings stories, so I’ve been invited back for another addition. This installment covers the QuantCast Estimated Monthly Visitors metrics. Quantcast has earned itself the reputation as being the most accurate traffic analysis tool available to the general public and is widely accepted as being far less gamable than other popular measures. QuantCast has changed their rankings reporting mechanism since my last traffic study installment and now only reports statistical numerical ranking measurements for sites that actually include their ‘Quantified’ measurement tool directly in their code. However, their Estimated Monthly Visitors statistics are still available for all. EMV is a good stat, as it gives a realistic feel for how many visitors a site is really getting in an average month, so that is what we will be using. We’ve tried to compile as complete a site list as we can, although we do exclude solo girls sites. If you have sites you feel should be included, please contact us and make your suggestions. For example, we debated the inclusion of Zivity, contact us if you have an opinion either way.

You will notice the addition of a few new AltPorn sites, some of which are doing phenomenally well, such as My Emo Bitch and Amateur Emo Girls. These sites reflect the recent popularity of ‘ex-girlfriend’ sites in online adult. They operate on the pretense that angry boyfriends upload embarrassing naked pictures of their former girlfriends for everybody to see. It’s depressing that this sub-genre is as popular as it is, but it goes to show that being popular doesn’t always mean being cool or good. These sites should still be included as they do reflect a realistic assessment of what people are looking at these days though. You may also notice APN has made a few adjustments to the AltPorn A-List. Inactive sites like RazorDolls are being removed. RazorDolls was a fun and sexy site, but it hasn’t updated in years. It was a good example of the AltPorn genre, but sending people there to join a dead site seemed wrong and/or unfair. We’ll hold out hope RD gets back on it’s feet, but for now it joins the ranks of ManicJane, FatalBeauty, SpicePlay, CityKittie, PornForPunks, and all the other dead AltPorn sites that once had interesting alternative content we’ve enjoyed.

These statistics are best evaluated as relative, rather than absolute. If you feel your favorite site gets more visitors, then consider that all sites measured probably get more visitors, as they are all measured with the same criteria. For example, judging by our own internal stats measures AltPorn.net gets an average of 101,000 unique visitors a month, but QuantCast only counts 57,868, and we’re actually Quantified. Here are the AltPorn Estimated Visitors Rankings for mid November, 2009:

MyEmoBitch.com, AmateurEmoGirls.com, SuicideGirls.com, GodsGirls.com, AltPorn.net, BurningAngel.com, BlueBlood.net, RubberDollies.com, BarelyEvil.com, GothicSluts.com, CrazyBabe.com, BurntFilm.com, PunkGrl.com, GeekGirlsOnline.com, DarkPlay.net, EroticBPM.net, DeviantNation.com, BlueBlood.com, BellaVendetta.com, PunkRockGirlfriend.com, NoFauxxx.com, InkyGirls.com, RazorDolls.com, PunkPinups.com, SuperCult.com, StaggStreet.com, BrokenDollz.com, Lazerbunny.com, EroticBPM.com, FuckMeInTheBathroom.com, BigBoobsAreCool.com, CumOnMyTattoo.com, PovPunx.com, PaybackBaby.com, HoleAndAHeartbeat.com

I’ve always had a thing for fluffy undergarments and although I’m not sure TuTu is the correct term for what sexy MissyStarr is wearing here, I’m not going to complain. It’s looking hot with the matching striped socks and I really like her expressive face too. I think some of this set could have had either less or more artistic use of depth of field techniques. It’s hard to tell in some shots if it was intentional or just a byproduct of the lighting and I would have enjoyed a sharper detailed focus for some of the shots, but it’s still a sexy Deviant Nation set.The lack of sharpness could also just be a result of Deviant Nation’s funky display size detector though. I’m not using the highest resolution screen and their system tries to fit the image to your settings. So, I have no idea if this is full size or not.

Chixor and Stitch, sounds like a 70’s tv show with lots of car chases and snappy slangish repartee, but it’s really two girls I can’t get enough of, now together on Deviant Nation. I’d love to see both these girls bound up and suspended together, but watching Chixor tease and toy with sexy Stitch is a real treat too. This series really does need a strap-on or two though.

Good creative underwater photography is always a real treat. It’s pretty difficult to get good expressions, elegant poses, flattering light patterns, and so many other challenging factors to all come together. I really enjoyed checking out this Deviant Nation debut set of a sexy tattooed pierced, scarified Gothic girl by the name of AutopsyAlice. You can’t see it in this sample, but she’s got some really interesting autopsy scarification bisecting her entire torso, and the effect of seeing a girl with markings only usually familiar on the recently dead posing casually breathless at the bottom of a pool made for a really ghostly feel.

One of my favorite things about the altporn genre is that the women in it tend to be more than just a hot face and body. BlueBlood’s Amelia G recently wrote an article about shooting clothing made of trash at a strip fashion show at an unusual strip club in Portland. The strip clubs in Portland are known to have all kinds of tattooed hotness. The sexy trash clothes were all made by BlueBlood model Rachel Face. This is the same girl who is known as Rivets on BurningAngel, Rachael Reckless on DeviantNation, and Marie on SuicideGirls. Anyway, I like that Rachel Face does creative crafting and I like that BlueBlood does news coverage on what their models are doing, like the Trash Factory article, along with the most awesome free gallery of tattooed hotness evar.

Since we are catching up on a few things. Here are the latest Compete.com rankings for our continuing AltPorn A-List Traffic and Popularity Study. Compete.com reports on a monthly basis, with statistic totals showing from the previous month. This means these are December 2007 stats, not up to the minute, according to Compete.com. The only real news here is the impressive entry of newer sites like GeekGirlsOnline and PunkGrl, hitting the chart in solid positions. CrazyBabe swapped positions with BlueBlood’s GothicSluts, as also reported on the QuantCast stats from yesterday. Otherwise, several sites slipped a slot or two as new sites entered the rankings.

We’ve had some shakeup in the monthly QuantCast edition of our AltPorn A-List Traffic and Site Popularity Study. Bob Coulter’s CrazyBabe pops up to the top of the chart, swapping positions with last month’s leader BlueBlood’s GothicSluts. SuicideGirls holds position two, followed again by BlueBlood’s BarelyEvil, also unchanged in position. The exciting news is the dramatic entry of GeekGirlsOnline, with a statistical debut all the way up in position seven. Nice work Athena Hollow! AltPorn.net slipped three spots, which we deserve for not updating for a couple weeks. Although, GodsGirls fell three as well. PunkGrl is entering the ranks well, up five spots, to position seventeen, and BellaVendetta has fallen the hardest of the group this month, losing six slots and ending up ranking twenty second of the AltPorn A-List.

I’d like to apologize, on behalf of everyone at APN. We’ve all simultaneously been overwhelmed with project work. I hear we may be interviewing for some more writer positions in the near future, so keep on the lookout for that. As always, we want to hear from you about new sites that should be ranked and added to the charts.

* Rank: Works like Alexa, lower is better.
** EMV: Estimated Monthly Visitors

Happy New Year everyone. We hope you all had a good time and we look forward to a great oh-eight. This month’s AltPorn A-List Traffic and Popularity Study Alexa Edition brings us little change in the standings. BlueBlood’s punky BarelyEvil got a bit of a December bounce, moving up three spots to take the number three spot, rising above their GothicSluts site, as well as Bob Coulter’s CrazyBabe and NaughtyFlipside. It looks like NaughtyFlipside did just enough content to put out a DVD and had not put up anything new since. Should we keep them on the chart as long as they are live, or should there be a limit on non-updating sites? What are your opinions? On the lower rungs of the rankings, relatively young site PunkGrl continued to rise, up two spots, along with another recent addition LazerBunny, also up two spots. Plus, we’ve just added newcomer GeekGirlsOnline, which debuts in slot 21. As always, we encourage your suggestions for more ways to measure the most accurate public measures of AltPorn site traffic and popularity.

With school being so busy this time of year, all of us have been pretty preoccupied over here with family and holidays, I’ve slipped a little on providing the December QuantCast results from our AltPorn A-List Traffic and Site Popularity Study, but without further ado here it is.

Although SuicideGirls traffic continues a downward trend, they have risen one spot in the rankings to regain second place, behind BlueBlood’s GothicSluts, edging out BlueBlood’s punky BarelyEvil. NaughtyFlipside managed to pick up a few spots, even though they have not updated in what seems like forever. We, AltPorn.net, have fallen a couple spots, probably due to more sporadic updates around the holidays and finals. DarkPlay seems to have gotten an interesting boost, while DeviantNation and NoFauxxx seem to be trending down this month.

* Rank: Works like Alexa, lower is better.
** EMV: Estimated Monthly Visitors

We managed to miss the late November Compete.com edition of our AltPorn A-List Traffic and Popularity Study, due in part to Thanksgiving, but some of the feedback we’ve been getting would indicate a desire to measure and publish the various third party traffic and popularity statistics on the same days. We’ve given it some thought and we’ll give it a try. So, along with today’s Alexa chart, you also get the Compete.com chart, both measured on December first, 2007. If this is popular, we may move the QuantCast measures and charts to the first of every month for the coming year 2008 as well.

The December Compete numbers are a little more interesting than the Alexa measures, or at least there is a little more positional movement. BlueBlood’s GothicSluts, as well as their BarelyEvil sites have moved up significantly in estimated monthly visitors taking spots two and three respectively, knocking CrazyBabe down to position four this month. We (AltPorn.net) have actually grown in visitors this month, up 55.4% over last month (six weeks really) and up an impressive 383.4% for the year. BrokenDolls is also bumping up significantly, while InkyGirls have fallen off a number of spots. Compete.com still doesn’t have measures for the newcomer sites PunkGrl and LazerBunny, which I feel they should have by now, so no measures for them yet.
