On Monday business and marketing strategist Brian Solis posted an analysis of Facebook’s explosive growth, and his thoughts on the larger social implications (plus the implications for Google). It’s indirectly a good argument for the importance of Facebook for a news organization’s audience engagement. Within the piece are some stats that drive home how many sites of all kinds have added Facebook features:
More than one million websites have integrated with Facebook Platform.
150 million people engage with Facebook on external websites every month.
Two-thirds of comScore’s U.S. Top 100 websites and half of comScore’s Global Top 100 websites have integrated with Facebook.
According to comScore, Facebook traffic soared by 55.2% in the past year, hitting 151.1 million in October.
