What makes FaceBook the most popular social media?

The answer to this question can be answered with a simple question. What type of people use FaceBook? I hope you got it. FaceBook is the only social media that is used by educated, uneducated, villagers, professional, unprofessional, old, young, teens, and even children can’t resist using FaceBook. So why won’t it be the most popular?

There is no wonder why FaceBook bought WhatsApp and it is still at the second position leaving FaceBook Messenger and YouTube behind. Linkedin is at the 19th position because this network is used by professionals only.

Twitter used to be among Top 5, but its popularity has decreased. It still has 6 million more active users compared to the Chinese Social Network “Weibo.” If Twitter keeps losing its users, it may soon go out of top 10 lists.
