Porn Statistics +
In my forthcoming book, Captured By a Better Vision: Living Pom-Free 
, I describe the spread of pomography as an epidemic. Here are some stats that back up this claim …
- Every second, 28,258 Internet users are viewing pomography and $3,075.64 is being spent on pomography
- The pomography industry is larger than the revenues of the top technology companies combined: Microsoft, Google, Amazon, eBay, Yahoo!, Apple, Netflix and EarthLink
- There are 4.2 million pomographic websites, which is 12% of all the websites on the internet
- Every day there are 68 million (25% of the total) search engine requests for pomographic terms
- 42.7% of internet users view pom
- The average age of first exposure to pomography is 11 years old and 80% of 15-17 year olds have had multiple hard-cor e exposure
- The 35-49 age group is the largest consumer of internet pomography
- 47% of Christians say that pomography is a major problem in the home
- 17% of women struggle with pomography addiction and 70% of women keep their cyber activities secret
- The USA produces 89% of all pomographic web pages (Germany are the next biggest producer, producing 4% of all pomographic web pages)
Captured by a Better Vision aims to offer hope for people struggling with pom and guidance for those trying to help them. It is published by IVP in the UK on 19 March 2010. It will be published in the US by InterVaristy Press.
