- One in every seven minutes spent online is spent on Facebook
- 40% of people visit a brand's Facebook page before visiting their website
- More than half of marketers who have been using social media for more than 3 years say that it has helped them increase sales
- 62% of businesses with 10 or fewer employees agreed social media reduced marketing expenses
- 78% of participants found that website traffic increased with as little as 6 hours per week invested in social media marketing
- Facebook has reached over 1.15 billion daily active users worldwide as of March 2013
- Twitter is the fastest growing social network in the world, with the fastest growing age demographic of 55 - 64 year-olds
