xHamster

xHamster (not “xhampster” lol)! Any serious pornoholic has definitely at least heard of xhamster.com. Most of you, I’m willing to wager, have fapped to this tube website on more than one occasion. For some of you, it might even be your go-to porn tube site. And, if that is the case, you are certainly not alone. There are 10 million others who fap to xHamster frequently enough to be registered users. After XVideos and Pornhub, it is the third most popular pornographic site on the internet today.

Headquartered in Limassol, Cyprus, xHamster was founded in 2007 by Alex Hawkings. The minds behind the site wanted to do something different from what they were seeing most porno sites doing at the time. Coming off of the peak popularity of social media sites like Facebook and Twitter, xHamster’s founders set out to create a website that was equal parts porn tube and xxx social media site.

A spokesperson for the site said of xHamster’s intentions that the site was meant for “people who wanted to chat, exchange erotic pics and share amateur videos … to find mutual friends online and maybe discover partners interested in intimate relationships.” I think it is fair to say that x Hamster has done a bang-up job of providing the platform that they set out to provide, as it has become a cornucopia of amateur and homemade user-uploaded content.

As far as the “discover partners interested in intimate relationships” part is concerned, though, I cannot speak to. I have never felt the need to resort to a porn site like xhamster to find my “intimate relationships,” but I am very curious to know if anyone’s ever had any luck with that aspect of the website.
