Porndex Review

tube8.com, redtube.com, youporn.com, pornhub.com and eporner.com appear in this search engine's tag cloud, interleaved with brunette, blowjobs, big boobs, masturbation, mistress and teen. Site names and subject words are being treated as the same kind of token, which tells you the index is keyed on text rather than on any structured notion of source — and it means a visitor can browse by which tube a clip came from without the interface ever saying so.

The rest of the cloud has the texture of a raw query log rather than an edited vocabulary: herrin beside german, scottish and ethiopian beside asian, and one-off phrases like Chair fuck and blooper sitting at the same weight as blonde. Latest Searches is a menu item, which supports that reading.

Structurally it is a thin front end — Home, Categories, Pornstars, New, Trending, Most Popular, Recently Added, Random, Options, Login — over a search box, with the meta description promising millions of videos and the ability to sort and save favourites.

What could not be established here is the substance: no result set renders without a query, so index size, which sites are actually covered, how often it refreshes and what the login is for are all unverified. The claim of millions of videos is the site's own and nothing on the landing page tests it.
