PornHub’s ad blitz fails to take off

MANILA, Philippines – Adult website PornHub debuted Monday its first major outdoor media campaign with a billboard at the Times Square in New York.

 

After months of launching a campaign to find a new creative director, a Turkish copywriter became PornHub’s Creative Director who designed the non-pornographic ad.

 

Pornhub’s advertisement was repeatedly rejected by mainstream media. I was also denied TV spots.

 

The ad, designed by Nuri Gulver, shows the PornHub.com logo in the middle of the shape of a heart made by two hands with the tag: “All You Need is Hand.”
The ad was debuted with a performance by the Gotham Rock Choir, which sang “All You Need Is Hand,” a parody rendition of the Beatle’s classics “All you need is Love.”

 

Pornhub, however, removed the billboard Wednesday offering no explanation as to why it took down the advertisement.
