It’s no secret that Facebook’s user base is growing with over 1.5 Billion Monthly users. It’s also no secret that Facebook’s Daily Active Users (DAUs), representing 66% of their monthly active users has been growing steadily. Â But there is a much bigger story here that Facebook isn’t telling you about why customer feedback is important.
Obviously, the more active your users are, the more opportunity you have to sell advertising. And that’s how Facebook makes money. Â But comparing daily to monthly usage hides the reality of Facebook’s success. Â In June of 2016, ReviewInc conducted a study of over 2,500 U.S. Consumers asking them about the amount of time they spend on Facebook each day.
Nearly 46% of Facebook’s monthly active users spend more than 15 minutes a day on Facebook, but the real interesting data was comparing how that has changed from one year ago. Â In February 2015, ReviewInc ran the same survey and now we can see what a difference a year makes.
The amount of time spent on Facebook by users each day has increased significantly. Last year, 41% indicated they spent more than 15 minutes on Facebook each day and that time increased by more than 10% to this year’s level of usage.
The number of non-Facebook users also decreased meaning that more people are signing up to Facebook and using it more frequently.
