Looking for the best new porn GIFs?
These days, the adult industry creates some high-tech content with UHD and VR porn movies so why would anyone settle for a low-res, 15 second GIF file instead? Yet, the popularity of these animated loops is undeniable. Easy to create, simple to watch and highly effective at arousing the user, porn GIFs offer a very specific way to enjoy adult content.
In this feature, we’ll find out more about exactly what a porn GIF is and why they are so popular as well as giving you our run down of the best porn GIF sites.
What is a Porn GIF?
Pronounced either ‘giff’ or ‘jiff’, a GIF is a type of image file that can be used to create pictures in the same was as a JPEG or PNG. The only difference between a GIF and other formats is the fact you can also use it to create animated files.
The GIF file wasn’t intended to be used to produce a moving sequence of images, instead it was designed to hold multiple visual files; however, it soon became apparent that when these files loaded in sequence they produced a sort of flipbook animation. The result is a short sequence of images that play over and over without any sound.
When applied to pornographic images, users can create a short sequence from their favorite adult movie from selected still images. The end product is an intense looping animation showing the same scene over and over again.
Why Are Porn GIFs Popular?
The format was created in 1987 by CompuServe and was last updated in 1989 meaning the software used to make these files is more than 30 years old!
GIFs are restricted in their resolution with a display of just 256 colors and are generally (due to file size limits) only a 2-15 seconds in length.
Yet, despite the age of this simple technology and the limitations inherent with the format, GIFs remain a popular medium of choice right across the internet. They are often used in place of emojis or stickers as a way to comment on someone’s posts, tweets or stories.
Most social media interactions support GIFs as an option for responding to other users and are an embedded feature of most social networking platforms from Instagram and Snapchat to Facebook and Twitter. The more grown up platform LinkedIn, however, does not support these kinds of files.
And, that’s the definition of GIFs in a way, they are a bit of fun, easy to produce and because they are so short, act as a focused way to condense a specific clip. Just like memes, GIFs are perfect for communicating emotions, ideas and even jokes.
And, when it comes to the porn community, GIFs offer a way to showcase a specific section of adult content in any way you wish. Adult content fans use and enjoy porn GIFs in a huge variety of ways from softcore to hardcore, highlights to bloopers and everything in between.
The key is that they are easy and fast to create and share as well as being supported by all kinds of browsers. They communicate their content quickly and, because there’s no sound, can be viewed more discreetly than MP4s or other video format. Not only that but, as an embedded feature of websites and apps, they loop continuously. For this reason, they are a good way for advertisers to attract your attention whilst you are browsing for porn.
However, porn GIFs seem to be popular simply because of their format; short and continuously looping. This means that the viewer can really focus on the whole scene in front of them and really get into the action.
Dubbed ‘microporn’, these adult animations started trending on Google in 2012 and have grown in popularity, particularly with women.
Yes, the female of the species is known for taking longer to orgasm and any interruptions can only delay this process when masturbating. Porn GIFs ensure that there is no possibility for you to lose interest and get distracted. Let’s face it, there’s probably plenty of examples of clips you’ve watched where the action on screen is moving at a different pace to your own masturbation techniques. Maybe just as you reach your peak of arousal, the scene changes or something happens which can dampen your ardor. With porn GIFs, you know what’s coming over and over again, so you don’t get any unexpected interruptions.
Of course, this works with men too.
What’s more, the fact they are small in size means that watching a GIF doesn’t rely on having a super-fast broadband connection so you don’t have to worry about your Wi-Fi dropping out just when you need it most!
This might explain why the search term ‘porn GIFs’ is most popular in regions where internet speed is poor. A quick search on Google Trends shows that queries of this kind are most popular in South Africa, Madedonia, and Pakistan.
The GIF may have been around longer than the web as we know it as well as being older than the platforms, websites and technology we use them on but it does look like these silly little files are here to stay.
How Legal Are Porn GIFs?
There is one small problem with GIFs that most people forget about and that is the fact that the content being shared is someone else’s intellectual property. In theory, this means that producing and sharing porn GIFs is illegal and there have been examples of cases being cited where production companies have tried to sue over the creation of these files. The extent of whether this applies very much depends on the GIF itself and the court presiding over the case.
However, most studios and porn content creators realize that GIFs can be a very powerful way of sharing their work and a 15-second clip is hardly going to deprive them of their livelihoods. In fact, it may mean that these little animated files drive extra interest in their content. Plus, GIFs are really the least of their problems when it comes to copyright protection. As many of you will be aware, the profits of the adult industry are being decimated by the proliferation of free porn available online, a good deal of which is being digitally pirated.
So, regardless of how and where you watch these porn GIFs (and any free porn online), it is always important to remember who produced it and consider whether you should be compensating those responsible for enjoying it. Ethical porn is becoming a hot topic and, in the long run, our choices in this regard will shape whether the adult industry has a future or not.

The site was created in 2015 and has the sole aim of becoming the world’s largest library of NSFW GIFs.

What we particularly like is their directory of Reddits where you can find more GIFs.
PStar GIF
Featuring ‘Pornstar sex GIFs from the best hardcore porn scenes’, PStar GIF is a great site if you are looking for a specific adult performer. They have a full index of porn stars from Abigail Mac to Whitney Westgate, each having several GIFs to their name.
You can also browse by category which features genres such as Anal, Big Tits, MILF, POV and Teens or you can even narrow down your search by studio. The site has GIFs from 21Sextury and BangBros to Naughty America and Reality Kings.

Ranked in the top 700 adult websites in the world, Smutty is definitely one of the most well-known porn GIF sites and regularly receives more than 5 million visitors each month.
The site’s design is based around hashtags and you can either search using trending terms or just input using the search bar.
It has a similar feel to Pinterest or Tumblr and offers a sort of social networking platform where users can share, comment on and follow other users and posts.
The result is a large collaborative curation of some great adult pics, clips and GIFs.
GIF Porn Tube
Designed in the same style as popular porn tube sites like XHamster, XNXX or XVideos, GIF Porn Tube will be a familiar format for most porn fans.
The site has a collection of over 147,000 adult GIFs and these are tagged in the usual way including popular genres like Anal, Ebony and Hardcore to more niche porn fetishes and kinks such as Sissy, Face-Fucking and Bizarre.
Just like with the main porn tube sites, users can upload content which means this library of NSFW GIFs is growing all the time. At the time of our review, more than 250 clips were being added daily.
Finding content on GIF Porn Tube is super easy and you can either type in your own search terms or browse by category, top rated, most viewed and most commented on.

Erotica in GIF
A messy little site, the design of Erotica in GIF isn’t the most user friendly but we include it in our list because there is some content on here that you might not find anywhere else.
GIFs are categorized into albums, the most popular of which are:
- Celebrity Porn
- Creampie and impregnation

Juicy Gif
And another site whose design is similar to Pinterest and features a huge selection of clips.
Unlike You Peg, Juicy Gif doesn’t have great search functionality and you can only browse GIFs by popularity and that content which has been uploaded (or commented on) recently. However, you can use the search bar to filter by tags.
Despite this, Juicy Gif gets a monthly audience in excess of 1.3 million visitors and has a nice collection of porn GIFs.
GIFs For
With a collection of almost 6,000 porn animations, GIFs For is another user-submission based archive of NSFW clips.

It’s a nicely designed little site and features a good selection of categories which will help you narrow down your search results.
As well as featuring the most popular tags you can also find content in the following niche categories:
- Extreme
- Midget
- Muscle
- Bareback
- Squirting

- DPP
- Celebrity
There are also geographical tags too so you can narrow down your Austrian porn from your Latvian as well as return some results on Arabic, Danish, Scottish and Russian.
Whilst the majority of the content here isn’t GIF related, the site does make our top list for the ease of use, simplicity of design and the broad range of tags.
Jizz is also a community-based site and registering a free account will allow you to get involved with the content and you can comment on, vote for and share GIFs, pics and clips. You can also save your favorites.
Instant Fap
Instant Fap claims to be the ‘world’s number one fapping site’ and with 3.5 million monthly visitors it is ranked in the top 700 adult websites in the world.
As well as offering a decent selection of GIFs, Instant Fap also has a good range of erotic audio recordings as well as Webm videos.

There are also plenty of niche GIFs such as YogaPants, OrgasmFaces, Downblouse and Christian Girls.
It is the diversity and range of the animations on this site which earns it a place on our list and Rule34 of the internet very much applies to Instant Fap; you can find a GIF here for pretty much any taste in porn.
Porn Gifs
Porn Gifs offers a no-frills, no-nonsense approach to adult content and is designed without any ads or extraneous extras.
What you get is a pinboard style site with GIF after GIF of hardcore porn content. There is a search bar so you can filter to content that is tagged with the usual keywords plus an alphabetical listing of popular tags.
What we like about this site is that when you select a GIF to view, it launches full screen and you can simply navigate to back and forward. It’s a nice way to generate some random porn GIFs and actually has some very decent clips. One to fall back on if you want a steady stream of, sometimes surprising, clips.
Jiggle GIFs
Jiggle GIFs reports to be ‘a paradise for free porn GIFs lovers’ and we wouldn’t disagree.
Here you will find a large collection of sexy NSFW animated clips covering a nice range of categories. From popular tags like Boobs, Blowjobs and Big Cocks to Interracial, Double Penetration and Creampie you can find most porn genres covered.
In total, there are more than 52,000 GIFs available to view on Jiggle GIFs which, if you register a free account, you can comment on, share and save to watch again and again.
4Chan GIFs
The popular adult pinboard site 4Chan has branched out specifically into GIFs with this board and offers a great source of unusual and bizarre GIFs as well as content which covers popular genres.
If you’re not familiar with 4Chan….first of all, why not? Ranked in the top 50 adult websites worldwide and reaching monthly audiences in excess of 45 million people, the image sharing site is like a cross between Reddit, Tumblr and Pinterest but is entirely anonymous.
The site has hit the headlines over the years for various controversial reasons including celebrity photo leaks and as part of internet attacks. However, 4Chan remains a focus for porn in the online popular culture of adult content.
Second of all, 4Chan isn’t an easy site to navigate and find content with so unless you are already a user of this site then you may find it a bit ‘messy’.
GIFs Gone Wild
Thanks to Reddit, the ‘Gone Wild’ term has become a popular one to describe hot NSFW content that celebrates exhibitionism and this website applies the phrase to animated GIFs.
Content here is a mix of porn stars and amateurs covering a wide range of categories from Amateur, Anal and Arab to Threesome, Toys and Transgender.
All clips are user-generated and you can easily upload your own GIFs if you register yourself a free account.
We can recommend using the ‘Explore’ tab which displays GIFs in a pinboard style and makes browsing random content a little easier. However, you can also use the search bar to filter clips based on more specific search terms.
Da Porn GIFs
A small animated GIF sharing site, Da Porn GIFs isn’t the largest collection of adult clips online but they are a relatively new site and this could be one to bookmark for the future.
At the moment it looks as though their main bread and butter is coming from branded porn GIFs in the form of top studios like Brazzers as well as cam sites (CamsRoulette) and porn tube sites (PunishTube).
You can still search through more than 13,000 GIFs here.
GIFGoo
A basic little site, Gif Goo has a small collection of NSFW GIFs, around 600, and wouldn’t normally warrant a spot on our top sites. However, we did not notice that some of the clips here aren’t on other sites and it may be a place to find some unusual animations.
The content here looks to mainly feature porn stars rather than amateur footage so perhaps a good site to add to your collection if you are a fan.
Porn GIF
Porn Gif hasn’t been updated for over a year now which is a shame as this collection of animated hardcore clips covers a nice range of genres. Though you wont find any new or recent material here, it is one we would add to our bookmarks as you can find some classic GIFs here as well as some unusual content.
GFYCat Porn
With the ‘hottest and sexiest’ clips online, GFYCat Porn is an adult parody of the popular user-generated GIF hosting site GFYCat. The latter is one of the go-to platforms for GIFs of any kind and offers users the facility to create their own looped images or just browse through millions of trending, popular and classic GIFs.
Whilst GFYCat Porn attracts nowhere near the 46 million visitors of GFYCat (Original), the site does provide an alternative to the huge archives available on those sites listed above. Instead of offering a way to search for adult GIFs, this site simply lets you scroll through a library of 10-15 second files.
This option may suit the indecisive and is offered here as our last choice just in case you’re getting overwhelmed.
Other Sources of Porn GIFs
As well as dedicated sites, there are some other great sources for adult GIFs which include micro-blogging sites, free porn tube hosting platforms and social news aggregation pages.
Tumblr
Despite Tumblr’s controversial decision to ban porn on its platform (December 2018), the site does still have plenty of adult content, notably in the category of porn GIFs. Though some are not as frequently updated as they once were, you can still find some decent collections on:
Just like Tumblr, Reddit has always had an affinity with the world of porn and various communities have been created around the NSFW GIF. There are hundreds of small groups but these, in our opinion, offer some of the best content and are worth checking out.
You can find a great directory of NSFW Reddits that specialize in adult GIFs via the GIF Sauce website.
Porn Tube Sites
And finally, what would any feature of the best porn sites be without a tip and a nod to those tube hosting sites that bring the world the best collection of free porn. Yes, the likes of Pornhub, XVideos and Sex also have their own category of porn GIFs too:
