Interesting. As a Gen X female I'd love to pretend I don't spend 7 hours a week on Facebook, but honestly... sounds about right! :)

So, Twitter is now "oversaturated"? I will stick to my favorite social media platform for a bit longer... ;) It is interested to see that Instagram is the fastest growing social media network.

Hi Ifran,

Great helpful information here. It's something any social media maven will want to bookmark and return to again and again. Obviously when using social media to market your brand, you need to be sure your time is well spent. So looking at which channels even reach your audience is a great place to start.
