Ever wondered how many people use your favorite social network, app or digital service? You’re in luck.
Often in my ‘day job’, I find when writing proposals, presentations, white papers, etc, that some of the simplest of stats like “how many people use” something are next to impossible to find. I decided to do something about that.
Here is my monthly, running tally of how many people are using some of the top social media, digital services and mobile apps updated for August 2018 (the best I could find, at least). This list grows pretty regularly. It began with a simple listing of some of the obvious social networks like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Skype, YouTube, WhatsApp, etc; then grew to include digital services like Amazon, Google, eBay, Netflix and Pandora; then the focus turned to APAC social and digital properties like Weibo, WeChat, JD.com, LINE and Renren; and lately, I have been focused on updating current listings, adding in new ones along with smaller niche ones that I may have overlooked at the beginning. This full report now includes over 1,100 listings and more are added almost weekly.
I hope you find this list helpful and be sure to check out the countless other stat posts on this site.
Without further ado, here is a sampling of the list…

Please note that some of these numbers are easier to find than others, so some of these are based on news reports and not official company tallies. All stats are linked to their source unless it was sent to me directly from the company. It is also difficult, at times, to distinguish monthly social media users from total user accounts for many social media. In other words: This is the best I can find, but I don’t guarantee anything.
