Hello, I’m Jim Glover, That Branding Guy, for Once a Day Marketing™. Today is Digital Friday and we are looking at recent social media usage trends.
A year ago
we released a blog about our perception of Facebook fatigue. A new survey conducted in early 2013 by the
Pew Research Center confirmed that there was a slight drop in Facebook usage in
2012 compared to the growth of other emerging social media channels.
Tumblr,
Instagram, Google+ Hangouts, WhatsApp, SnapChat and other social media
platforms are seeing dramatic increases in user activity. For example, SnapChat reported 150 million
snaps or messages in April 2013 compared to 20 million in October 2012, a 650%
increase.
The key take
away is that while a lot of people are still using Facebook, many are adopting
other social sites for sharing pictures, videos and personal updates. Keep your eye on emerging social media
channels to determine if you or your brand should be spending a bit more time
there.
