Ware in Hertfordshire, it turns out, has more demand for online porn than any other UK town. Lasting 10 minutes 37 seconds online and clicking on 7.6 pages, an average visit from Ware is almost two minutes longer than one from Billingshurst, West Sussex.

The data comes from Pornhub, one of the UK's biggest porn sites, and reveals a great deal more about online preferences - although using data from just one adult site does might not be representative of all of them.

In the interactive below, the size of the circle represents the number of users in each city. The data for London (the biggest circle) is based on 23.5 million visits to the site in the space of a year. In total, the site was visited 111 million times over the past 12 months. For comparison, the UK government's site receives around 1.4 million visits per year.

The circles in the top right hand corner show cities which visit more pages and spend more time searching porn than the national average; so Ware is the outermost point. Those in the bottom left-hand corner represent cities below the UK average.

Search terms

The American pornographic actress Lisa Ann is the top search term in Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales - but in England she's overtaken by the term 'British'.

Search terms also show how porn habits differ between cities. Visitors to the site from Sheffield search 'natural tits' while in Liverpool one of the biggest search terms is 'teacher'. Biggest country searches are shown below.

The UK isn't the only country to have national sentiment when it comes to porn search, as the graphic below shows.

Mondays in January

Monday is apparently the most popular day to access porn - that's a trend consistent worldwide from the UK, the US, Germany and France to Brazil and Mexico. Japan bucks the trends though; porn users there prefer to visit the site on a Saturday.

The biggest month for porn search worldwide is January. Japan turns out to be an exception again though, users there tend to search more porn in November while in Mexico it's March.

Regional trends

At a country level, even Ware can't bring up the English average to overtake Scotland. Residents of Northern Ireland spend the least time online of any UK country.

International trends

Britons spend almost a full minute longer online than the world average (9:42 compared to 8:56) but don't come close to Americans who spend almost 11 minutes on the site during an average visit.
