So let’s take some time to unpack the nuances relating to a few of the BIG GUYS in the game!

1. Facebook

Whether we like it or not, Facebook is the undisputed heavyweight champion of social media platforms and has fundamentally changed the way humans interact with each other.

Facebook is the largest social network in the world, and your follower are most likely to use on a daily basis. And so! It’s a great place to start if you want to host and create a knowledge-sharing/discussion space, and share long form information and stories.

  • In the US, 73% of all Facebook users log in on a daily basis.

  • The average American user spends up to 38 minutes per day on Facebook.

  • Despite continued criticism of Facebook’s role in spreading disinformation, 36% of US citizens say they regularly use the platform as a source of news.

  • 75% of Facebook users are women, 63% are men. 76% of people between 18-24 and 84% of people between 25-30. 79% of people 30-49. Another 68% between 50-64.

  • Facebook also allows you to receive very detailed analytics about your audience. This insight can help you further refine your target audience.

  • popular platform for B2C marketing

  • Offers incredible engagement rates in comparison to Facebook

4. TikTok

Kind of an overnight success story! The video-sharing platform seemed to unapologetically burst into the scene with its quick and hilarious content!

TikTok Stats!

  • Young adults are by far the most frequent users of TikTok with 41% of users between the ages of 16-24.

  • The more creative your videos are, the more noticeable they will be.

  • It is available in 155 countries and 75 languages, making it possible to reach people you may not be able to on other platforms.

5. Snapchat

This app defied the norms! Rejecting the notion of “once it’s on the internet, it’s forever” and said “I’m doin my own thing y’all!”

The photo and video-sharing platform became famous for only displaying users’ posts for a limited time before it’s deleted. Forever. Talk about creating a sense of urgency!

SnapChat Stats!

  • 59% of all US internet users between the ages of 13 to 24 are on Snapchat.

  • Since 2016, Snapchat has been the most popular social network amongst teens and young adults.

An image-sharing, pin to your hearts desire type platform! Dream board your life and get pinned!

Pinterst Stats!

  • 442 Million Active Users

  • Demographically, Pinterest has largely been dominated by female users. Currently, the gender split is sitting at approximately 60/40 percent. This gap is narrowing, however, with the platform reporting a 50% increase in male users in 2020.

  • Pinterest provides great SEO opportunities because your pins are also clickable links which can drive traffic to your website. Another great aspect is that pins have a long lifespan, meaning that the more your pin is re-pinned, the longer it circulates on user boards and it can be visible for years. 

7. Twitter

Short and sweet. But don’t blink! You may miss something! 280 characters only please.

8. LinkedIn

Shine a light on that resume! LinkedIn is a space to showcase your professional career. The US has significantly more LinkedIn users than any other country in the world with 160 million users. However, this social media platform is used much less regularly than many of the others. Although.. I do see them trying to make a combat with their new features.

LinkedIn Stats!

  • 160 million users

  • The largest age demographics for LinkedIn are 25-30 year olds and 30-49 year olds.

  • A LinkedIn profile can improve SEO rankings for a small business, as it comes across more legitimate.
