Extending Social Media’s Reach Over Facebook
It seems as though everyone is on Facebook these days and those that aren’t recognize that they are missing out on something amazing and eventually give in and join. This is not just limited to individuals – businesses, bands, products and brands are rapidly setting up pages on Facebook, recognizing that there is astronomical potential to extend their exposure across this massive platform to a world-wide audience.
According to checkfacebook.com, as of today, April 19 2010, there are approximately 95 million Facebook users in the US alone. The UK has 22 million users, Turkey with 14 million and both France and Canada with 13 million. These top 5 countries amount to approximately 157 million users. Sounds like an enormous number, right?
The top 5 countries with the highest number of Facebook users represent only a fraction of the total worldwide population of Facebook users, with 400 million in total. For the most part, the majority of these top 5 countries are westernized, developed countries. Think of all the users who live in other heavily populated countries, like as India, China, Russia and Brazil…
So what does this mean? With so many Facebook users located in non-western countries, the market potential to reach a wide variety of and even developing nations is unprecedented. Many of these users are hungry for products and information.
Still unsure? Think of it in the sense that the Facebook population is growing so rapidly, that by 2011 there will be approximately 630 million users. Does your brand have a strategy to target this audience?
