If you’re like me and are curious about the state of Twitter as of May 2014, you’ve found the right place. It’s important to know Twitter statistics to understand why exactly Twitter is such a great platform for marketing. Although as marketers we still should look at Facebook, Twitter offers something much different.
With Twitter, it’s much easier to create several popular accounts whereas on Facebook, usually a user will have only one Facebook Account but maybe a couple pages.
