Indonesia, Brazil and Venezuela Lead Global Surge in Twitter Usage

(NASDAQ: SCOR), a leader in measuring the digital world, today released a report on Twitter.com growth worldwide. The study found that in June, nearly 93 million Internet users visited Twitter.com, an increase of 109 percent from the previous year, as the social networking site achieved strong gains across all global regions. “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,” said Graham Mudd, comScore vice president, search & media.

Twitter gets half the press coverage of Facebook, but a fraction of its traffic. Ever heard the phrase “why is everyone always talking about Twitter?”

Twitter gets half the press coverage of Facebook, but a fraction of its traffic

Well, here’s the reason, maybe. The micro-messaging service is getting half of social network Facebook’s press coverage, according to Google Trends stats for both companies in the U.S. — even though searches for Facebook dwarf searches for Twitter. Why are there more searches for Facebook than for Twitter in the U.S.? Because Facebook has more than 46 million monthly active users here while Twitter gets an undisclosed, but certainly lesser amount of twaffic, I mean traffic.

In terms of traffic comparisons between the two sites, the most recent I’ve seen comes from third-party analytics firm Compete.

Twitter, chiffres 2010 et usages à la loupe

J’en ai retenu une poignée qui, par la taille de leur corpus et leur méthode d’analyse, apparaissent les plus sérieuses. Au premier rang de celles-ci, les études Sysomos de 2009 qui ont passé au crible 11,5 et 13 millions de comptes sur trois mois. 1- CHIFFRES GENERAUX Nombre d’usagers français – Les usagers Twitter français représentaient 0,9% des 13 millions de comptes étudiés sur une période de trois mois (entre le 16 octobre et le 16 décembre 2009) par la société d’études Sysomos, soit environ 125 000 utilisateurs. Si l’on applique la même proportionnalité, compte tenu de l’augmentation du nombre d’inscrits Twitter, passés de 75 millions à 145 millions (+80% en un an) on obtient une estimation actuelle en août 2010 d’environ 225 000 utilisateurs français (estimation non “scientifique”).
