From Fanlore, the fan run wiki about media fandom. This page brought to you by Fanlore’s Random Page Generator.
“Hanson Erotica was a domain…..which hosted Hanson fanfic, focusing on erotica, both het and slash. The site opened in 2001. Some popslash and The Moffatts fic was also hosted.
Site’s Context In The Wider World Of Fanfiction
“FanFiction.net’s decision to delete all RPF fiction [in 2001] was also a small blow dealt to the hanfic world. Somewhere around 1000 hanfic stories were archived there, but even at that, it was hardly the primary source for hanfic. Fans continued to host their stories on personal websites, and a few moved to LiveJournal. Those who lingered on and continued to write simply had to make the best of things. With all three boys finally over the age of consent, smut became more popular than ever before. Whereas “erotica” was often kept entirely separate from other stories, or strongly warned for when it wasn’t, adult material started to be integrated into more and more mainstream stories. Sites such as HansonErotica.com, HansonPorn.com and LustJunkie.com were among the first to embrace the smutty side, rather than keeping it hidden and secret.”[1]
