Thumbzilla

Thumbzilla may be older than the 21st century, but its dedication to providing hot and sexy pornography isn't over the proverbial hill. A legacy porn aggregator, Thumbzilla has added millions of porn videos to its site since 1999. It shows no signs of slowing down, with new content being added regularly. Visit the porn aggregator with the funny name, and see for yourself why this site has been going strong for over two decades.

Over five million videos

Although Thumbzilla does not feature as many porn movies and videos like other porn aggregators, they abide by a philosophy of 'quality over quantity.' It shows when a person browses through Thumbzilla's library of fantastic content. The thumbnails will pop out at users (more on the thumbnails later) and grab their attention while teasing them to click and watch what's within.

As one browses through the front page, they will notice a large variety of porn. Sure, browsers will find plenty of AAA porn from some of the top brands and studios in the game. That's not all, though. There is plenty of amateur and even homemade full-length porn videos available as well (over 90,000 in the amateur section). Five million may be on the low end when it comes to porn aggregators, but at the end of the day, five million videos is nothing to scoff at. Visitors will have plenty to watch: the lower video-count shouldn't turn off anyone.

Hottest tags at the top of the homepage

Another thing visitors will notice as soon as the homepage loads is the ‘hottest tags’ section. It’s a large, green box at the top of the page (people can close this box by pressing the ‘X’ in the top-right corner). There are a handful of the most popular tags of the moment. During this review, the most popular tags were things like young, teenager, blonde, and so on. That will change depending on when a person visits the porn aggregator.

It’s a precursor to the abundance of thoughtful tags Thumbzilla provides in the tags section (more on those later). With the hottest tags section at the top of the page, it’s clear that Thumbzilla cares about making one’s search for the perfect porn convenient and easy to do. The most useful information always seems to be front-and-center for the user – and there’s no better proof of this than this convenient section.

Good options for browsing content on the left sidebar

Thumbzilla seems to have realized that the site's most important sections can be aligned on the left sidebar. Complete with a minimalist look and style, this section would be at the top of the page on most porn aggregators. Thumbzilla decided to avoid the tabs as much as possible by listing this information in a convenient sidebar that takes up little space and blends in with the website rather than sticking out like a sore thumb.

Visitors will notice that they can browse by hottest, newest, trending, top, videos, gay videos, and popular videos, just to name a few. The sidebar is an impressive accomplishment. Whereas most porn aggregators wouldn’t have been able to pull this sense of style off without it coming across as amateurish, Thumbzilla pulls it off with ease. Then again, the porn aggregator has been around for over 20-years. They’ve learned a few lessons regarding what works and what doesn’t.

Look at only HD videos

Those aren’t the only convenient locales on the left sidebar. For the user that only wants to view pornography in glorious high definition, they will want to select the HD Videos box. As with every section, choosing that section brings up a page of videos that can be sorted via the following: featured recently, most viewed, top videos, newest, and longest. This will give users plenty of options for finding the perfect HD video for their situation. Look around, notice the HD icon in the thumbnails (users should keep an eye out for this icon as they explore other categories on Thumbzilla), and find a sexy HD video worth watching!

Look at only homemade/amateur content

Those that prefer the raw and authentic to the professional and scripted will want to select the Homemade section. It’s also on the left sidebar: click it, and the results will appear as they do for the rest of them. Use the sorting options as one sees fit to find the quality, amateur content one is looking for. There were nearly 39,000 videos in this section as of this review. That number is likely growing all the time. Amateur fans should check it out just to see what Thumbzilla can offer them!

Browse by tags

The hottest tags may have been at the top of the homepage, but that isn’t where the convenience of Thumbzilla’s tags ends. On the left sidebar, select Tags to look at the abundance of tags Thumbzilla has to offer. Users can browse tags alphabetically by selecting the first letter of the tag at the top of the page.

Prefer not to browse alphabetically? Select All at the top to see every tag featured on Thumbzilla. One may be intimidated by the massive wall of text that appears, but don't be. The numbers next to each tag points to how many videos are in that category, allowing browsers to determine which categories they should visit to watch the most content.

The tags are so varied that anyone can find something new here. From niches and genres like ‘Dino’ to ‘Soldier’ and everything in between, it’s fun just looking through the tags and finding something new to browse by.

Keep in mind that brands, site names, porn stars, and so on are also present. If the tag has ever been applied to a video listing on Thumbzilla, it's here. Even the tag 'Flintstones' (which has been tagged on only four videos) is here. Again, it's safe to say that if the tag has been featured on Thumbzilla, visitors can find it in this section.

Browse by pornstars

Sometimes, it makes sense to browse by performer rather than tag or category. This section can once again be accessed by the convenient left sidebar on the site. Select Pornstars and notice how the section automatically sorts by top-ranked. Select the drop-down arrow if changing the sorting options is preferable, and choose between most viewed, alphabetical, and the number of videos.

The beautiful thumbnails of each pornstar bring this section together. To this end, browsing the pornstars section is also a great discovery tool. Look around and find an old favorite, or find someone new worth watching. Either way, users are sure to have a great time just exploring this section!

Tons of good categories

The amazing tags section works thanks to the vast selection of categories. In the left sidebar, one can find the most popular categories on Thumbzilla. To see all of the categories, hovering over More will show the rest of the categories. There are plenty of interesting, obscure categories here, too so don’t think they’re all going to be vanilla.

Notice the numbers next to each category. Like with the tags list, this shows how many videos are available in that category. Use it to determine which category is worth checking out first. Or use it as a guide to finding the content one wishes to watch. Either way, the categories section could not be more convenient!

Amazing thumbnails

Thumbzilla deserves a lot of praise across the board. The one area where Thumbzilla exceeds most other porn aggregators is with its thumbnails. Thumbnails that entice people to click and watch content is essential on a porn site – just look at the reviews on ThePornDude. These thumbnails hit all the right notes: they’re detailed, sexy, and will make users want to click and watch. Add to the fact that they show when a video is in HD, and it’s clear that even when it comes to the thumbnails on Thumbzilla, convenient is king.

And that's the underlying thing one can say about Thumbzilla as a whole: it makes finding preferred porn convenient, fast, and simple. Users don't have to deal with a clunky layout that so many porn aggregators unfortunately implement into their own site or a navigation bar that seems to go nowhere. Thumbzilla knows what it takes to ensure people find the right porn – and they'll get the person there thanks to their thoughtful design and focus on making the user experience a positive one.
