Pornhub Investors: Things You Didn't Know
Websites like Pornhub, RedTube, and YouPorn all make millions every year on the internet pornography industry. They don't do it all alone though. The brains behind the most popular porn sites in the world is a Montreal-based, private company called MindGeek. If you want to be the next big name in porn investing, here are a few key facts you should know about MindGeek.
PORNHUB INVESTOR KEEPS A LOW PROFILE
If you quickly glanced over MindGeek's website, you'd never guess they hold the key to nearly all the porn online. MindGeek calls themselves the "leader in web design, IT, and SEO." While that may be true, they don't really mention that they run YouPorn and a wealth of other porn sites online. When you think how 35 percent of all online downloads are for porn, you can image that MindGeek holds a lot of power.
PORNHUB INVESTOR MINDGEEK OWNS PIRATED MOVIES
Most of MindGeek's income comes from their copyrighted material. Well, we all know how much pirated porn there is out there in the world so how does MindGeek stay afloat? Well, the secret is MindGeek owns the porn people are pirating.
