Instagram's Photo Freeze Really Did Hurt Twitter [Infographic]

Social partnerships benefit some networks more than others. After Instagram stopped displaying users' photos in the Twitter feed last year, engagement per photo on Twitter dropped 17 percent quarter-over-quarter.

This infographic from Digital Net Agency (DNA) visualizes data from an Instagram Brand Adoption Study conducted by Simply Measured in February 2013.
