Twitter Is Getting Bigger in Asia Amid Slowing User Growth
Posted in: Uncategorized
As Twitter struggles to add new users as quickly as it used to, researcher eMarketer is adding an ominous prediction to the mix: Percentage growth in the U.S. will slow to the single digits by next year.
Yet there’s a positive side to the data — Asia. While the number of Twitter users in the U.S. is expected to grow 12% this year, eMarketer projects an increase of 34% in Asia. By 2018, growth in the region is estimated to slow to 15%, though that would still outpace the worldwide average growth of 11%, Bloomberg.com reported on its Global Tech blog.
The number of the microblogging service’s users in the Asia-Pacific region already eclipses those in North America and Western Europe. And Asia’s percentage of all Twitter users will only get bigger.
