Despite the continuous flow of reports claiming that teens are done with Facebook, a new report from Pew Research Center reached a different conclusion, saying that 71 percent of teens aged 13 through 17 use Facebook.
That made Facebook the top social network among teens in that age group who responded to the Pew study, followed by:
- Instagram, 52 percent
- Snapchat, 41 percent
- Twitter and Google+, 33 percent each
- Vine, 24 percent
- Tumblr, 14 percent
Pew found that 71 percent of respondents use more than one of the seven social networks in its study, adding that of the 22 percent of teens who only use one site, Facebook was the top choice, at 66 percent, followed by Google+ and Instagram (13 percent each), and Snapchat (3 percent).
