Facebook Releases New Statistics: Sharing Quintuples In 6 Months

Facebook has updated their new statistics page and the most significant statistic is that sharing has increased 500 percent in only six months. The total number of users on the site has less than doubled in the same amount of time, growing from 250 million users to 400 million. That means the average user is sharing over 12 pieces of content each week.

As Kim-Mai Cutler points out, Facebook users don’t appear to be increasing their volume of status updates though:

Facebook users are also posting 60 million status updates a day or 50 percent more than they were in September.
