Another chance to look at the social media universe, analyse the trends and make the strategies. But before starting this, it is always good to look back at how 2011 has been for our different sites and then go on to predict how it would be in future. I feel, these statistics can help you figure out which network has the right demographics for your brand, age and income group. Our data sources for this article were Xposure and Nielson. UK Facebook statistics Facebook now has a reach of just over 30 million unique users for the UK. That means the proportion of the UK total population registered with the site is fast approaching 50%. The demographic breakdown is even more interesting, though. 25-34 year olds are now the largest age group on Facebook as we enter 2012, with users under 17 years making up just 5% of the user base. Therefore, it is good to note that 95% of the population is adult age group. Another important fact to note is that 42% of users claim to be in the £30k-£49,999 income bracket – and the second most highly represented bracket is £50k plus, at 22%! Therefore there is a great deal of potential for high-end luxury brands to meet their right customers base. UK Twitter statistics: Twitter has shown explosive growth this year, with the number of reported users more than doubling from 12 million to 26 million. Twitter?s age profile is again dominated by the 25-44 age group, accounting for over 60% of users. LinkedIn LinkedIn also continues to grow, and now looks to reach around 10% of the UK population. Its users have some way to go to be as dedicated as Facebook?s though, with an average visit lasting less than half the time spent on Facebook. It is also good to know that in terms of disposable income, LinkedIn has the highest percentage of people in the high income group. Tumblr is another platform to watch, with major growth during 2011 and Nielson?s third quarter report putting it at #2 in the UK by page views. Google+ made its debut to great excitement in 2011, According to socialtimes, the UK total user base is still under one million ? and globally, only 17% of those signing up become regular, active users. The losers Last.fm, Bebo and MySpace continue their steady decline, while image-sharing site Flickr maintains its user base of around four million.

Charu Dwivedi Mindjumpers Tue, 10 Jan 2012 11:06:44 +0100 http://clausvistesen.squarespace.com/alphasources-blog/2011/12/13/new-macroeconomic-resource-variant-perceptions-trusted-sourc.html I normally do not mix business and pleasure but in this case they are such a close match that I think an exception is warranted. The small independent macro research firm I work for is consequently in the process of restructuring its website and is opening up its Trusted Sources which was previously restricted to clients. VP Trusted Sources is a collection of content providers and their content that we deem to offer high quality and value adding financial and macroeconomic analysis worthy our own, investors' and other researchers' time.  Obviously, skilled and hardened readers of econ blogs would point out that the last thing the internet needs is another information aggregator. I would agree, and even in the world of economics and finance there are already considerable aggregators and umbrella sites which collects and gathers information. However, and biased as I naturally am, I would argue that the VP Trusted Sources blows most of the other"passive" information aggregators in the financial industry away.  I would point to three reasons for this.  1. We provide macroeconomic and financial news in its most pure format and if you are a consumer of such information you will be extraordinarily well served. This is high powered macroeconomic news, from one passionate macroeconomic researcher to another.  2. The VP Trusted Sources is essentially a custom made/all inclusive macroeconomic RSS reader. You don't need to create one; we have done it for you.  3. Its versatility. the VP Trusted Sources hub can be used either as the equivalent of a financial/economic Arts and Letters Daily or as a fast and efficient way to learn about a given topic.  I would particularly emphasize the balance between blogs, news and bank/investor research (1) which means that the VP Trusted Sources becomes a potentially very valuable gateway for information. You will also note that each entry (referring back to an original article) has both primary and secondary tags. I dare you to do research on a specific/generic topic where the VP Trusted Sources cannot lead you to instant and valuable information which will make your life easier.  Well, I think that this must be enough self-promotion for one day. Since it is free I encourage you to have a look and if you don't like it, feel free not to return. If you do, tell all your macro friends and fellow macro geeks about it.  ---  (1) - Obviously some links will lead to walled content as some providers may not give free access to their content, but the vast majority of links goes to free resources.    CV Alpha.Sources Tue, 13 Dec 2011 17:55:57 +0100 http://econstudentlog.wordpress.com/2011/11/26/8173/ US Econstudentlog Sat, 26 Nov 2011 12:30:16 +0100 http://econstudentlog.wordpress.com/2011/11/17/worth-remembering-when-comparing-the-us-to-europe/ US Econstudentlog Thu, 17 Nov 2011 12:50:25 +0100
