In my latest installment of social media statistics, I am taking a look at the photo-sharing social network Instagram.
Instagram has quickly gone from a trendy iOS-only app, to a massive social network with Android and web presence. Instagram hasn’t shown any sign of slowing down, and with Facebook’s pocketbook behind it now, its growth will surly continue.
Anyways, here is what I have been able to dig up. If you have any Instagram statistics you’d like to see here, leave a comment and let me know.

Instagram User Statistics
How many people use Instagram:
300 Million Monthly Active Users
Last checked 12/10/14
Number of daily Instagram users:
more than 75 million
Last updated 12/12/13
Percentage of Internet Users That Use Instagram:
Last updated 5/2/13
Percentage of teenage girls that claim to have been bullied on Instagram:
Last updated 8/5/14
Please note that some of these numbers are easier to find than others. A few of these stats come from Instagram’s own reports, but some are based on news reports and not official company tallies. Basically, this is the best I can find and I don’t guarantee anything to be 100% accurate.
