124 Fascinating Social Media Statistics & Figures From 2013
I wrote an article last year on 100 social media statistics from 2012 and I plan on continuing to write an updated version of that article every year from here forward. In this article, I’ve included more statistics on more social networks that have risen to popularity since last year, as well an infographic visualizing some of the most interesting statistics about the growing social media ecosystem.
A lot has changed over the last year in social media like the rise of Snapchat, the acquisition of Tumblr by Yahoo, the growing importance of mobile first social networks like WeChat or Vine, the launch of LinkedIn’s widely successful Influencer program and more.
