Twitter has recently increased its traffic around the world from 37.3 million users to 44.5 million.
This growth is impressive, but even more so, if you go back 12 months you’ll find the increase in unique users has been a staggering 1,460% from a user base of just 2.9m.
So why has Twitter grown so fast? With the help of exposure from celebrities no doubt, and with a little bit of forward thinking many businesses have used Twitter to help them grow their customer base and sales. However, the social networking site war goes on and Twitter is still lagging behind the networking giant, Facebook which has around 307m users worldwide.
Getting businesses to buy into Twitter has sometimes been a bit of a challenge due to the stigma surrounding social networking sites such as Facebook and MySpace, so it might suprise you to know that more adults are using Twitter than teenagers. Companies such as Dell have led the way in showing how powerful social networking can be for your business.
