Social Media Statistics as of Feb 2012–Consolidated
There has been a lot of posts lately regarding stats on the main social media sites… As I was reviewing them , I noticed each had it own way of presenting the information with a different metric or measurement (some by month, some by day, some as a percentage while others by the numbers) and it made me a bit crazy…
So quickly did a bit of research, and put together a spreadsheet which allowed me to compare them side by side…
Disclaimer and heads up: This is not perfect! I tried to collate and compare to the latest data available on the net, but the data snapshots might be from different dates.
Anyhow – the idea was to get a baseline… I hope it helps!
