Social Media Statistics Australia – November 2011
It’s the last day of the month and time for us to report our monthly social media statistics for Australia.
As per previous stats, when compiling these figures we look at actual user numbers if officially reported (or by a reputable source ) – otherwise we look at the number of Unique Australian Visitors Per Month visiting the site (UAVs / mo).

15. Delicious – 48,000 UAVs / mo (down 21,000)
16*. Gowalla – no data, May 2011 was 9,500 UAVs / mo
I’ve had some requests for additional sites to the above.
TripAdvisor – 240,000 UAVs / mo
Klout – 27,000 UAVs / mo
Key Points to note:
- Facebook still ranks number one as the site has more registered users than YouTube and more website traffic.
- As Yelp has now launched an Australian site, I expect this to move into our list over the coming months and we will report these figures.
- MySpace continues its decline, it’s only a matter of time till it reaches a constant low. I don’t see the site totally vanishing as there are still lots of legacy users.
- Google Plus continues to add new users, but engagement is the real question? It seems rather low from my use of the site.
Feel free to check out our stats for October if you’d like to see last months report. Please contact us if you’d like any additional sites measured.
