Which social network is winning today’s popularity contest?

Sunday, 28 Apr, 2009 0

While Twitter is in the news making headlines with astronomical growth – now up more than 2,500% in just one year, Linkedin continues to be “the place of choice” for professionals.  It is one of the quickest growing social sites and has more than doubled in the last 12 months.  It now has more than 15.8 million people in the U.S. alone, which puts it right behind Facebook and MySpace. 

 LinkedIn’s recent growth can probably be attributed to the extremely high unemployment rate and the economy, as people are looking to connect, search for jobs and continue their career enhancement.

 So to sum up the Top 10 results from March 2009:

Facebook                            69 million users

Classmates                         16.4 million users

LinkedIn                               15.8 million users

Twitter                                 13.8 million users

Reunion.com                     6.6 million users

Bebo                                     6.1 million users

Club Penguin                     6.1 million users

Ning                                       5.6 million users

AOL Community               4.1 million users

My Yearbook                     3.3 million users
