Top 5 Most Popular Social Networking sites in the world till 2010 - 2011?

Share This
Facebook, Orkut, MySpace we all are hooked to these Social Networking websites. We communicate with our buddies on them and get to know whats happening in whose life using them. But do you know which Social Network is the most popular in the world?

There are 100s of Social Networks around the world some are popular in some region and some in a particular country. After studying and using many of them and studying their traffic trend from the past year i.e. 2010 - 2011 I have concluded the top 5 Social Networks around the world.

No# 5: Orkut.com
Orkut is very popular in India and was one of my first Social Networking websites I ever joined. It has an average more than half a million visits a month. Its visitors are declining by the day and Orkut tried ramping its UI and make it more user friendly lets see how things work.

No# 4: Friendster.com
Friendster.com has on an average approximately 1 plus million unique visitors per month since the past one year. Its very popular in Asian countries like Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, United Arab Emirates.

No# 3: Bebo.com
Bebo.com has on an average more than 2 million unique visits per month. It is fairly popular around the world especially in the countries like Gibraltar ,Ireland ,New Zealand ,Pakistan ,Bangladesh.

Bottom 3 Social Networks i.e. Orkut, Bebo and Friendster.


Actually the bottom 3 are at the real bottom in the top 5 Social Network and there is a huge difference between bottom 3 and top 2 social networks.

No#2: MySpace.com
MySpace.com is a Social Network which really ruled the world in mid 2000. But its not so intuitive UI and annoying ways of earning money started irritating its user base and its decline started post year 2007 - 2008 and main reason is you will soon come to know who. Myspace still has a 60 plus million unique visitors per month but last month i.e. Mar 2011 it declined to just left with 35 million unique visitors. Myspace.com is fairly popular around the world especially in countries like United States ,Pakistan ,Mexico ,United Kingdom ,Bangladesh

No#1: Facebook.com
Facebook.com the addition machine which hooks its users for hours and yet they are not bored. Its a slow poison . It took me some time to get a hang of it but when I got a hang of it, was too late I was addicted to Facebook.com. People use Facebook not just to Socialize but to play games, earn money, publicise their products and websites, create groups and lot more. Facebook has a whooping 140 plus million unique visits each month and is popular around the world and is the number one Social Networking site of all times. Let's see how long it stays on top. It has even started giving Google a run for its money.

  3. facebook has started its own email service too. Though i am not sure how successful that is so far but if facebook also offers some kind of search which can compete with google..google will be in big trouble..

  4. Ya I am also not very much using it. I am not sure how people would react to Facebook search engine like Google. But certainly curious people would try it once and if they like it they will try it again and again. Facebook search engine might not lead straight away but will certainly have a market share to start up with.

  5. Agree FB is the most popular. Until last year Orkut had a good fan following in India & Brazil. But 2011, it seems the game is just over for all other s/n/w but FB :) Traffic wise FB sometimes overtake Google as well!

  11. There's no doubt that Facebook is number 1. Most of us today use that social networking site so we can communicate with our loved ones. I think it's a really great site.
