Browsing beyond the home page

Search and categories cover ordinary browsing. Performer pages bring together appearances by a named person, while channels group a producer's uploads. Newest, most-viewed and top-rated lists offer alternatives to the recommended feed.

Playlists and subscriptions make the account features useful for repeat visits. A visitor can keep a selection or follow an uploader, rather than begin again from the home page. Profiles also support interaction with other members, adding a social side to the library. See also RedTube review. See also SpankBang review.

The different formats have their own place. Shorties provides a short-video section; galleries and GIFs offer still and animated material alongside the longer video lists. I like that these are identifiable sections instead of an unexplained mixture in one list.

Free access and the surrounding offers

The main catalog is free, with Premium advertised as a separate paid offer. Live services and other commercial links also appear around it. Those services have their own conditions; a navigation link does not make them part of free video access.

Anabel's take

The range of formats is what interests me here, especially the clear place for galleries and short videos. The broader community will appeal more to returning members than to an occasional visitor. For simple browsing, the number of sections and promotions can make the page feel busier than it needs to be.
