πŸ“Š Facebook Inc. Dominates the Social Media Landscape

When people think of #Facebook as a company, they mostly think of it synonymously with Facebook the social network. However, Facebook Inc. is much more than that, as today’s chart nicely illustrates. With #WhatsApp, #Instagram and of course the namesake Facebook and #FacebookMessenger, the company owns four of the world’s largest social media / messaging services.

Facebook alone is used by more than 2 billion people per month and both WhatsApp and Messenger also have surpassed the billion user mark, according to company data aggregated by DataReportal. #Tencent, the Chinese company behind #WeChat, Qzone and messenger QQ also boasts more than two billion users in total, but it still doesn’t come close to matching Facebook’s global footprint.
