Snapchat Is the Fastest Growing Social Network (Infographic)

Despite being the youngest of the big four social networks, Snapchat has experienced the fastest growth in the four years since its launch.

Perhaps the most heavily weighted metric we use to judge the success of social networks is growth. Your network may have interesting technology, or better privacy protections, or the cleanest interface of all, but it may as well count for nothing if you can’t grow. An infographic from WebpageFX examines the growth of Facebook, Snapchat, Twitter and Instagram.

The infographic looks where each of the services were when in their fourth year of operation. Facebook launched in 2004, Twitter in 2006, Instagram in 2010, and Snapchat in 2011.
