How do Pornographers Target Kids?
The pornography industry often uses many different marketing tactics to attract viewers and lure kids, and their marketing models create no incentive to distinguish between child and adult traffic. In fact, most pornography sites do not request age verification of their visitors and even offer free samples of pornographic images. Some of the “responsible” pornography sites include an entry page that warns viewers to only enter if they are over 18, but in reality, anyone can gain access by simply clicking on a link that reads, for example, “I am 18 years or older.”
Free Teaser Images
Pictures and/or streaming videos posted on the home page of a pornographic site to entice users, including:
Sexual activity of every form (i.e., sexual intercourse, masturbation, bisexual interactions, group sex, oral sex, fetishes)
Cybersex and cyberchats with “live” feeds (i.e., user can view and/or interact in real time with porn star)
Site “tours” (i.e., walks user through a virtual table of contents of pictures, videos, and pornographic experiences available)
Innocent Word Searches
Pornographic website operators use popular terms or innocent words that may have little or nothing to do with the content they display to increase traffic to pornographic sites.
Misspelled Words
Stealth Sites
Online pornographers often purchase “Stealth URLs.” These are sites with web addresses that are close in name to the “legitimate” site.
