An independent research group GlobalWebIndex have recently published a report on the social media usage in China.

This is a considerable growth compared to the same research 3 year ago, back in 2009 which concluded that only 8% of China is on Facebook (or 7.9 million people respectively). The research has also shown that 65% of Chinese Facebook users are male, 76% are below the age of 34 and 69% have a post graduate degree.

Great insights! Thanks for sharing! Didn’t know these statistics before.
