๐Ÿ“บ The Social Side of TVideo Viewing

As internet-connected devices proliferate and streaming services grow in popularity, itโ€™s easy to assume that TV viewing has become an individual pastime. But the reality is that just about half (48%) of #TV or video total viewing time in the ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ is still done in groups โ€“ and this may even be growing as a social activity.

๐Ÿ“Š Facebook's User Growth Stalls Where It Hurts

Considering its size, itโ€™s not a surprise that #Facebookโ€™s user growth has been slowing down recently. After all, the social network has more than 2.3 billion (!) monthly active users while the International Telecommunications Union puts the number of global internet users at around 3.9 billion.

What hurts the company though, is the fact that the regions most affected by the slowdown are the ones where Facebook generates the lionโ€™s share of its revenue. Over the past three months, the social network has added just 2 million users in North America & 5 million users across Europe, which is where it generated 50% & 25% of its total revenue in the past quarter, respectively.

๐Ÿ‘ค e-Commerce App vs Web Engagement

Using the top four e-commerce brands, here Verto dives into what form of traffic was driving the majority of their visits. Unsurprisingly, Web (including mobile & desktop) continues to dominate e-commerce reach and time spent. 179 million unique monthly visitors access #Amazon at least once via Web which is 97% of Amazonโ€™s user base for September 2018; only 53% of those users, 98 million, access it via the application. Even in terms of engagement, the average user on Amazon spent slightly more than 5 hours on web browsers compared to slightly under an hour on the app.

๐Ÿ—ฃ Word of Mouth & Product Discovery

Older generations are typically more inclined to use WOM for brand discovery, with over a third of 45-54 (34%, Index 1.09) and 55-64 year olds (38%, Index 1.21) citing this as a main source for finding out about new brands and products.

For both baby boomers and Gen Xers, WOM recommendations places third as a brand discovery source behind ads seen on TV and search engines. It drops down to fourth for millennials, and sixth for Gen Z, but this still places it just ahead of recommendations on social media for both these younger generations.

โ€‹โ€‹๐ŸŽž Video Get More Interactions than Images

The more followers an #Instagram business page has, the more likely it is to include video in its mix of post types, according to a study from Quintly. As part of its report, Quintly analyzed more than 8.9 million posts during the Q1-Q3 2018 period from more than 44,400 profiles ranging in size from 0-1k followers to more than 10 million followers.

The analysis yielded an interesting benchmark: the vast majority (72.6%) of posts from these various pages were Image posts. In fact, posts were more than 4 times as likely to be Images as Videos (16.7% share), and almost 7 times more likely to be Images as Carousel posts (10.7% share).

However, the finding that 1 in 6 posts are Videos masks some intriguing differences by profile size. When sorting the results on post type distribution by page size, the analysis found a near-linear correlation between size and likelihood of using Videos. In other words, the larger the follower number, the more likely the page to use videos as part of the post mix, and the less likely to use Images.
