Twitter Facts & Figures infographic

A few weeks back we brought you a Facebook Facts & Figures infographic that had been put together by the team over at website-monitoring.com. They’ve just released a similar infographic, this time for Twitter.
The infographic gives a timeline of developments at Twitter (can you believe that the 140-character limit was introduced just three years ago?), as well as a wealth of statistics relating to user numbers, traffic, user demographics, and more.

Twitter timeline

Here are a few facts gleaned from the infographic:

  • There are more than 106 million accounts on Twitter
  • 81% of Twitter users are following fewer than 100 people
  • 55 million tweets are sent each day
  • Only 20% of Twitter users have tweeted 10 or more times
  • Portuguese is the second-most popular language on Twitter
  • Ashton Kutcher is still the user with the most followers (4.8 million), whilst Oprah Winfrey has made it into 7th spot with a meagre 116 updates
