Facebook conquers Armenia, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia and Vietnam



Facebook continues to make progress in its colonization of planet earth. With more than 1 billion active users, Facebook is the leading social network in 127 countries, according to Alexa data compiled by Vincenzo Cosenza. Much of the recent growth has come from higher penetration in Asia. In recent months, Facebook has become the leading social network in Armenia, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia and Vietnam, according to Cosenza's research. China and Iran remain impenetrable to Facebook, and V Kontakte and Odnoklassniki continue to dominate Russian countries.

Cosenza's data analysis identified only five significant social networks, down from seven in June 2012, as Zing, which had some traction in Viet Nam, and Draugiem, in Latvia, faded. 



Cosenza's social-networking map from June 2009 shows how more competitive the field was and that Facebook was not the dominant player in Brazil, Mexico, Peru or India.
