I think it goes by IP address of both the viewer and the uploader.
Australians are more likely to upload videos with Australian accents, and those are more likely to be shown to people in Australia. And they watch them, so viewership increases within the Australian market, so the algorithm continues down that line.
[…], and those are more likely to be shown to people in Australia.
Maybe not, some sites have uploader controlled geoblocking so they can exclude their home region.
Oh, interesting! I wonder if that blocks the entire country, or just the region. And no, I’m not opening that link at work, lol
Once you’ve become a Verified Model on Pornhub, you have the option to block certain countries, American states, and Canadian provinces from viewing your Pornhub and Modelhub profile and videos.
Ahaha awesome, thanks.
Looks like it wouldn’t work well in Australia unless the models are not very privacy-conscious…lol
There are around 27 million people in Australia so it would be roughly comparable to blocking Florida (22 million) or Texas (30 million).
Didn’t Texas try and block themselves from pornhub?

You’re only going to have Australian accents in porn made in Australia or with Australian actors.
I was under the impression much of the modern (Western facing) industry produced on the American West Coast and Eastern Europe where young, pretty people come cheap.
I don’t think there’s enough Australian talent porn being produced (at professional grade anyway) to justify its own category.
You could be right. I have absolutely no idea.
How would they know what accent I have?
Probably
In my experience, changing location changes results. The site will still have an American flair to it, but it had a different group of results when I traveled. I confirmed it later with a VPN. You would think some specific searches would always give the same results but, unfortunately, this is one of the sites that chooses to show related content (to create an illusion of overwhelmingly vast content while snowballing highly-rated content) instead of a more functional search for your exact request. I will also note that language didn’t have much to do with it. I’m guessing tags are translated so using a foreign word still brings you to the same category. Testing a mix of my language, their language, and adding nationalities to the search did not affect results nearly as much as being in the country (or setting my VPN there).
So while I don’t think it’s smart enough to look for an accent, I do expect the content to have more with the accent from local creators delivered in searches by way of regional preference over time.
That makes sense. It would also obviously depend on how much porn there is that exists with people who have that accent (or language). The ratio of Australian-made porn to American-made porn might be like comparing a peanut to an elephant. I admit I can’t really remember encountering much Australian-accent porn here in the U.S.
