These results come once again to show that Facebook is a big (very big) business and that despite all the critics it gets from users and investors, the platform is surely as stable as ever economically and my guess is that we will see more new things and more acquisition this year.
The guys over at Ad Parlor prepared a very well designed infographic to resume it all.
Key Points To Remember
- – Facebook’s revenue reached $2.5 billion
- – That represents a 72% increase year over year
