(by Taly Weiss) Recent analysis by RJMetrics pulled from Twitter’s API may suggest that Twitter is losing popularity:
- The average Twitter user has 27 followers, down from 42 followers in August 2009.
- Twitter is losing 20% from its July peak: The monthly rate of new user accounts is currently around 6.2 million new accounts per month or 2-3 per second.
- A large percentage of Twitter accounts are inactive, with about 25% of accounts having no followers and about 40% of accounts having never sent a single Tweet. Only about 17% of registered Twitter accounts sent a Tweet in December 2009, an all-time-low.
- About 80% of all Twitter users have tweeted fewer than ten times.
- In line with Nielsen’s April 09 observations ”Twitter users fail to return the following month“ – only 20% of tweeters come back to tweet in their second month.
