#1. About BetterFap
Created and designed in 2014, BetterFap.com is a Pinterest-like idea that helps you find the right content. If we could shove it into a single category, that would be a hybrid porn aggregator. That’s because BetterFap lists results from multiple sources and in numerous formats. However, it's more geared toward offering recommendations based on how you interact with the content.
#2. First Impressions
The strong domain name promises you a masturbatory experience like no other. But, can you achieve a fap so good that it’s better than the rest of the world has to offer? BetterFap is a catchy new name that could either become the world’s best aggregator or die because of a complicated experience. It’s supposed to be a Spotify of the porn world with far lower budget yet hotter content. That’s where we start a review; by the looks, I see room for improvement.
The biggest thing to get people going and accepting new technology is to make the interface as simple as possible. BetterFap utilizes an interesting yet complicated layout that could harm its success. Why didn’t they hire an expert in this area (or if they did, why does he suck?) is beyond my comprehension. The look is too confusing for newcomers because you don’t know what to do with this “porn content.” How is it personalized? How can you improve? What are better ways to surf? Is this the same as pictures from NSFW_GIF or not? What about the inclusion of better subreddits? BetterFap raises a lot of questions and answers none.
#3. Content & User Experience
BetterFap works by “rating” your likes and dislikes (thumbs up or thumbs down), favorites (sparks) and searches. It’s not as smart as Google’s artificial engine, Facebook’s advertising algorithm, or even a quantum computer, but the data is new oil. Once BetterFap collects enough reference points about your sexual fantasies, it will generate new recommendations every 24 hours, which change over time as you use the site. Recommendations come from various sources, including photos, GIFs, videos, audio, and written erotica. There's gay, shemale, lesbian, straight, anime, and hentai content here of all proportions.
When it comes to user features, BetterFap.com has a lot of them. You can sort content by type, gender, or orientation. There are loads of different filters that visitors could utilize. Also, social features could be useful. For example, one can share your recommendations with others, make playlists, manage your profile with global filters, view stats, etc. There's a list of popular content, recommended cams, and sites, subreddits, newest videos, even a fap roulette that gives you random content based on a few options. Finally, there don't seem to be any ads on the site.
#4. Conclusion
What’s my opinion about BetterFap? It’s an interesting take on the whole porn search engine idea, except it focuses on user activity recommendations. Those include likes, favorites, searches and encompasses multiple formats (audio, video, GIFs, stories, photos). Still, some of the features might be overwhelming to some users.
