More than Half of Facebook’s Referral Traffic Now Comes from Mobile

March 23, 2018

Shareaholic tracks 250 million users (and 200,000 publishers) going through its network which has given the platform the ability to provide such useful data.

The numbers don’t lie:

A theory behind this spike in mobile traffic is the fact that many students have gone back to school. The spike may not last but mobile traffic, in general, has been on a steady rise:

The current stats for Facebook (shown as their milestones as part of their quarterly report) are as follows:

  • 1.23 billion monthly active users
  • 945 million monthly active mobile users
  • 757 million daily active users
  • 556 million daily active mobile users

This means that 73.44% of Facebook’s daily userbase visits the platform from a mobile device and on that note – 53% of its revenue is coming from mobile.

What does this mean for business?

Now is the time, more than ever, to step up Facebook advertising and participation.

Facebook advertising is a rough game and many marketers fall off the deep end because it requires constant tuning (see our post on how not to lose on Facebook ads).
