While some traditionalists in journalism cringe at the mention of BuzzFeed, there is no doubt the media disrupter has built up quite the successful conglomerate in a few short years. I am sure you have seen their articles and videos in your social feeds, but have you ever wondered just how many people view and share BuzzFeed’s content? I was curious, so I did a little searching recently.
Here are a few of the more interesting BuzzFeed statistics I was able to dig up. As always, be sure to check back in the future as I will be updating this post as new and updated stats become available.
Please note that some of these numbers are easier to find than others. A few of these stats come from BuzzFeed’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.
