Porn Surpassed by Social Networks
26 January 2009 | social-media | 1 Comment
An impossible feat? Nope! In 2007, American web traffic to social networking sites surpassed traffic to adult entertainment sites which was a benchmark previously thought to be impossible in any given demographic.
In October, social networking traffic in the UK surpassed porn and has continued to trend this way.
Why must you care?
The reason this statistic matters is to show the sheer popularity of new media. Porn has long dominated web traffic across the globe and with signs pointing to this deathgrip loosening up, it makes it even more evident that communication has, is, and will shift to the online dialogue. Are you engaging online? Do you have a plan? Do you know how to draw others in so well that they’ll choose networking with you over watching porn?
We do, so stay tuned here and step into the lab.
