Social media

In the previous weblog I discussed the financial balance of FC Barcelona.

In this weblog I will discuss the impact of social media.

I will give a short description to show you how fast the internet grows.

The power of the internet

 

The Radio reached its 50 million user after 38 years.

The TV reached its 50 milion user afer 13 years.

It took the internet only 4 years to reach its 50 millionth user.

The Ipod even less, it took them only 3 years to reach 50 million users.

Within 9 months Facebook had over 100 million users.

Within 9 months over a billion Ipod apps were downloaded.

80% of all the tweets are made with a phone.

Opinion of the customer

 34% of the bloggers write about products or services.

And people add more value to what bloggers say, then the adds you see on tv.

Because of the social media it is so much easier to reach 1 million people.

Then when you try to reach the same amount of people with TV ads or newspapers.

That’s why there so much ads on Youtube and other video sharing websites.

All these social media create free publicity.

Nowadays you see that a lot of companies have a Facebook page.

People are able to write their opinions, questions or comments on the Facebook page.

When people say that they like a product and that its good quality etc.

Customers would believe them, rather then a review from the company itself.
