By 2017 India To Boast the Most Facebook Users — By Far
Posted in: Uncategorized
Facebook’s user base could approach 1.8 billion in 2017, fueled by new users in populous emerging markets.
While Facebook’s user growth is tailing off in the U.S., U.K., Canada and western Europe, there’s plenty of room to grow in population centers such as Brazil, Russia and India, according to new estimates by eMarketer.
The Facebook user base in North America is expected to grow by only 3.6% this year, compared to 34.4% in the Asia-Pacific region, 29.5% in Latin America, 31.8% in the Middle East and Africa and 29.3% in central and eastern Europe. The explosive growth in places like Brazil, which is expected to grow its 69 million users this year to 103.9 million in 2017, explains why Facebook has been accelerating its business development efforts there.
