Dutch were reported to be the leaders in world pornography production and Hosting.
Now The US has dethroned the Dutch at 480 Million Pages, contributing 60% of World Porn!
US ,the world leader in every sense!
Report:
According to the survey compiled by Paul Walsh of family-friendly web product specialist ,MetaCert , more than 187 million pages of web porn are hosted in Holland, even though the population is just 17 million.
The UK, which has more than four times the population of the Netherlands, hosts a quarter of the amount of internet porn – although that is still 52 million internet pages – almost one for every British citizen.
The Netherlands is also way ahead of its European neighbours in terms of the number of adult-only domain names registered on the country’s servers.
It has nearly two million (1,836,104) domains for X-rated content. That is in contrast to the UK with just over half a million.
Darren Anstee, of Arbor Networks, told IBTimes UK: “It’s a product of the fact a lot of Web hosting companies exist in the Netherlands, and plenty of connectivity through AMSIX. Pornography is profitable and hosters can charge for space used and bandwidth utilized so it’s profitable from their angle as well.”
AMSIX is the Amsterdam Internet Exchange and is the worlds largest data transport hub in the world – accounting for around 10% of the world’s internet traffic
However the figures for Britain and Holland are still dwarfed by the US, which hosts 428 million porn pages – 60% of all smut hosted worldwide.
California is the heartland of the US porn industry, churning out 66% of all content made in the States..

We shared our findings with John Carr, one of the world’s most renowned Internet Child Safety experts. John wrote a blog post and shared it with The Sunday Times, who asked both John and I, to hold off on publishing our posts until they went to print. You can read John’s post here. And you can read The Sunday Times article here.“
I have taken the liberty to include more stats than those provided by John and The Sunday Times and we’ve used an infographic to make it easier on the eye.
