Porn Inspector is one of the heavyweights of the erotic review world, with close to five thousand reviews published and a staff of inspectors doing the writing. The site covers paid porn sites of every kind, sorted into more than forty categories that run from amateur, lesbian and gay to BDSM, VR porn, webcams and specialist fetish content. Its slogan is guiding you to worthy porn, and the audience is exactly that: regular porn buyers who want a plain-spoken first impression and some sample content before they commit to a membership. The site has been running long enough to build a large community around it, which sets it apart from one-person review blogs.

Every review on Porn Inspector gets a rating out of five stars and a written first-impression summary, followed by sample images and sample videos lifted from the reviewed site so you can see the production quality for yourself. A top list ranks the best scorers by rating, an A to Z index lets you jump straight to a site you have already heard of, and a model directory with galleries and featured performer profiles links each name to the sites she appears on. The community layer is unusual for this category: members can leave their own opinions under each review, vote in polls and talk in the forums, and the site keeps a running tally of those opinions. A newsletter rounds up new reviews and deals.

Using Porn Inspector is free, including the forums and the model directory, and the site is supported by affiliate commissions when you join a paysite through its links. Exclusive discounts are listed on the review pages and in a dedicated section, so it pays to check before joining anywhere direct. The staff reviews are descriptive and lean positive, as most erotic review copy does, but the user opinions underneath often supply the dissent, which is exactly why the community matters. The site is cleanly laid out, mobile-friendly and runs the standard adult age gate; it never handles your payment, since billing happens on the paysite you choose.

Porn Inspector is the directory to use when you want more than one voice. The star ratings and samples get you oriented in seconds, the model index is a genuine research tool if you follow particular performers, and the member opinions add a reality check the staff copy sometimes lacks. It is bigger and busier than most sites in this category, so expect to browse rather than be told a single answer. Open Porn Inspector through our link to check the top list, the current discounts and what other members are saying about the site you have in mind.
