Wie Mark Zuckerberg gerade verkündet hat besitzt Facebook nun über eine Milliarde aktive Nutzer weltweit! Als aktiven Nutzer zählt Facebook jeden Nutzer der sich innerhalb der letzten 30 Tage mindestens ein einziges Mal eingeloggt hat. Laut eigenen Statistiken loggen sich über 50% der Nutzer täglich auf Facebook ein, damit wären also über 500 Millionen Nutzer pro Tag auf Facebook aktiv.
In Deutschland sind derzeit etwas unter 25 Millionen Nutzer auf Facebook aktiv, damit sind wir weltweit innerhalb der Top 10 der aktivsten Länder auf Facebook.
Mit über 1.000.000.000 Nutzer hat Facebook zwar noch Potential nach oben, müsste sich dabei allerdings auch auf Märkte wie China stürzten. Bleibt spannend wie es weiter geht! Glückwunsch aber an Facebook & Mark!
Hier noch ein paar Zahlen die Facebook selbst veröffentlicht hat:
