The rise of social media has taken over the world, making it easier to share anything to the internet, and doing it quicker than ever before. But there's one website that Mexicans use more frequently than the million of other ones, and that's Facebook.
According to eMarketer and a poll they ran, 97% of people use Facebook, which is far beyond other websites used in the country. That's estimated to be 51.8 million people. Mexico is also the largest internet market in Latin America, according to BBC Profiles.
Here's a quote from Facebook Mexico CEO Jorge Ruiz Escamilla, from The Yucatan Times:
“Facebook, the most important social network in the world, now has 51 million registered users in Mexico, who each spend an average of 8 to 10 hours a month on the platform”.
Other popular websites that they use include YouTube, Twitter, Google+ and Instagram. Google+ is surprisingly more popular than Instagram, compared to the United States, not many people use Google+ as a social media platform. An additional platform that we don't use often is MySpace, and people would say that website jumped off the deep end a long time ago. Other websites which we don't have or never heard of are are hi5 and Taringa!. Those rank at number 6 and 10 on the graph. This graph and information is from eMarketer
