How to Choose the Best Porn Niche for a Porn Site?

How to start a porn website in 2021?

What’s the first step to take while starting a porn streaming business?

Is it building a porn site?
Is it organizing your content source?

To be honest, none of the two options are correct.

Two decades ago, this could have been a perfect way to start your porn site business. You could simply build a porn site, choose a business model (hire performers, outsource content from studios, or open it for community uploads).

Irrespective of the business models, sites like Pornhub, Xvideos, xHamster, Brazzers, and many more adopted this approach, and they are more than just ‘successful’.
However, today, this would be a grave mistake.

Let me clear the suspense here. Today, the first step towards building a successful porn site business would be choosing your porn niche before anything else.

What makes niche so important?

Back then, there were only a few players in the market; they had all the time and opportunities to attract the audience that was shifting from DVDs and VHS tapes to online porn streaming. Moreover, developing a porn website was a time, money, and effort-intensive job. Only a few players with a fortune to spend in their hands could afford this expensive and unexplored endeavor.

Today, the porn streaming industry isn’t anymore playing hard-to-get. One can easily purchase an inexpensive porn tube script and build adult websites at a fraction of time, money, and effort. Even adult content sourcing is smooth these days; some of these scripts come in-built with APIs that can pre-populate hundreds of thousands of porn videos from the first day itself.

So, how to start a porn site business without committing any mistakes?

Choose your porn niche the very first day

Creating a porn website and dumping thousands of random porn videos on it would be the first and last mistake in your venture. Thousands of porn websites are offering the same kind of content on the internet; what makes your venture so special?

With a general porn website, do you see yourself outranking your top competitors such as Pornhub, Xvideos, xHamster, YouPorn, and thousands of more?

Certainly not! This would be nothing but a waste of all your time, money, and efforts. Instead, you must find a porn niche that you like the most, and move ahead with it.

What’s a porn niche?

A porn niche is nothing but a specific segment that you can choose for focusing your website on. Instead of dumping some random porn videos, you can select one small segment that is not as saturated as the general segment.

Let’s understand this with a simple example.

When you look on the internet, tons of blogging sites that post all kinds of content. However, there are also a few websites that post only on some specific topics, nothing else. If you want to start your blogging site, you might think that it’s easier to start writing on all kinds of topics, as it will give you a broader audience to target. However, this would be a mistake, as it is not easy to stand out among tons of other similar blogs.

Instead, if you could focus on a topic that you like the most or possess expertise in, you could easily stand out as an expert in the field. This might mean that you have a smaller target audience, but these are the people who are interested in your segment. A porn niche works somewhat similar to this.

In fact, porn is even diverse than the blogging industry. You have a bigger and even diverse list of choices when it comes to picking up a porn niche. Let’s find out how.

Finding the best niche for your porn site business

There are two ways to find a porn niche for your business:

1. Pick from the explored porn niches

Porn is all about categories, which are nothing but the classification of porn based on fetishes, interests, and sexual orientation. The industry is filled with popular porn categories that are based on hundreds of aspects.

To name a few popular searches, college girls, old women, Indian women, Asian, twinks, hairy guys, uncut guys, ebony guys, etc. However, this doesn’t stop here. Tons of other classifications are also there, which are based on different aspects.

For example, fetish-based classifications such as Blowjob, Big Cocks, Butts, Celebs, Gamer Girls, Cum Shots, Fisting, Hardcore, Webcams, Voyeur, BDSM, and a lot more. Let’s not forget a much broader classification that is based on sexual orientation such as Straight, Lesbian, Gay, Trans, etc.

You can explore these categories to find out a niche that you think would help you stand out. This should always be the first step in any guide when thinking about how to start a porn site.

2. Create a custom porn niche

There are hundreds of more porn niches. In fact, even some simple permutations and combinations of the given-above categories can form a unique niche.

For example:

Gay is a broader category.
You can combine the Gay category with another aspect such as Big Butts, and form a Gay Big Butts niche.

This is just one example. You can explore tons of categories and form so many niches.

But, mind a few things here

You can’t just go on picking random categories or combinations and call them niches. A niche must meet the following two conditions without failing. If you are missing on any of the two, know that you haven’t picked a viable niche yet:

Competition: Your selected niche must display lesser to no competition when compared with the general porn market.
Demand: Your selected niche must have enough demands to set up a viable business model and a revenue stream.

If your niche is less competitive, but there aren’t enough demands, it’s not a niche.

If your niche has enough demands, but there is very harsh competition, it’s not a niche.

Pro tip:

A porn niche need not be formed by a single category or segment. You can also pick multiple categories, segments, fetishes, and interests to serve multiple niches, as long as you meet the above two conditions.

There are many ways to not only find good niches but also validate if your selected niche is profitable.

- Browse popular porn sites and check for the popular porn categories and porn videos on them.
- Follow relevant Reddit and other social media forums and make a note of the discussions about popular porn categories.
- Check for popular trends on other types of adult websites, webcam sites, and adult fan club sites like Chaturbate, OnlyFans, ManyVids, etc.

Always validate all relevant keywords of your selected niche for popularity and search volume using SEO tools like Google Keyword Planner, Google Trends, SEMrush, Uber Suggest, etc.

Finally, pick a niche that you personally find interesting. No matter how hard you work, you can’t succeed unless you like your job. As simple as that. I hope you now have a clear idea of how to start a porn site.
