Indian internet users in June 2010

Twitter reached 8% of Indian internet:


According to a study by web analytics firm comScore, the number of people visiting Twitter.com from across the world increased by 109 per cent to 92.8 million in June 2010, as compared to 44.5 million people visiting the micro-blogging site a year ago. Indonesia reported the highest penetration, with 20.8 per cent of internet users aged 15 years and above in the country visiting Twitter.com that month, followed by Brazil (20.5%) and Venezuela (19%). In US, UK and India, Twitter had a reach of 11.9 per cent, 10.9 per cent and 8.0 per cent respectively in June 2010. The study excluded people visiting Twitter through public computers, mobile phones and Twitter-based apps such as TweetDeck.

An analysis of the five major global regions reveals that Latin America experienced the strongest audience growth, surging 305 per cent to 15.4 million users. Asia Pacific ranked as the second-fastest growing region, climbing 243 per cent to 25.1 million visitors. The Middle-East Africa jumped 142 per cent to 5 million visitors, while Europe soared 106 per cent to 22.5 million visitors. North America, where Twitter has reached a higher maturity level than other regions, saw a growth of 22 per cent to nearly 25 million visitors in June 2010.

“Twitter.com has experienced an explosion in global traffic over the past year, establishing itself as one of the most-visited social networking sites across each of the five worldwide regions,” Graham Mudd, vice president, search and media, comScore, has said. “Today, nearly 3 out of 4 global internet users access social networking sites each month, making it one of the most ubiquitous activities across the web. As more users around the world have become acquainted with connecting and expressing themselves through social media, it has created an environment where new media like Twitter can emerge globally in a relatively short period of time.”

An analysis of Twitter usage via mobile for the six mobile markets currently reported by comScore (US, UK, France, Germany, Spain and Italy) reveals that Twitter is gaining adoption among smartphone users. In US, 8.3 per cent of smartphone users (4.2 million people) accessed Twitter.com in a month via the browser on their mobile devices, outpacing each of the European markets. In Europe, 2.8 per cent of smartphone users overall accessed Twitter.com (1.7 million users), with UK experiencing the strongest penetration in the region at 5.8 per cent, followed by Germany with 3.1 per cent and France with 2.1 per cent. The figures include only mobile browser access to Twitter by people aged 13 and above and exclude access through other Twitter-based mobile applications.

Interesting work. Keep up.
I would like to see your blog with more graphs and images (images show and tell the facts and figures in 1/10th second). Text is boring for most and it takes time to read all that textual anlysis. Nothing bad in text, but its all about a quick glimpse and those who want will anyways read it.

See my info visualization blog and reviews blog.
