For many years, Facebook was the industry's standard-bearer, with its addictive algorithm and simple user interface making it the
most popular social networking site. Despite the fact that it continues to have
the most total users, it is expected that its US user base will decline for the
first time ever in 2022.
According to estimates, Facebook's US user count will be
around 178.3 million by the end of the year, down 1.4 million from last year's
high. This is the first time in Facebook's history that the number of users has
decreased, and with all of the recent changes, it's no surprise. After all of
that has been said and done, it is vital to realize that most of these
lost users are under the age of 25.
The site has been able to offset these losses by
maintaining a very consistent pace of growth among members over the age of 25.
Despite this, users over 25 are not growing at a fast enough rate to compensate
for the loss of younger users, and this trend is expected to continue in the
coming years.
Facebook
can't rely on elderly users since this is the kind of thing that could render
the site outdated. Younger users are always the most desirable demographic for
a social media network to target, yet Facebook is gradually becoming the worst
place to advertise to them.
Facebook is expected to have only 23.3 million users under
the age of 25 in the United States, down from the current 26.8 million. Its
user base over the age of 25 is predicted to rise slowly, from 151.5 million in
2022 to 154.3 million in 2023, gaining only 3.3 million users to compensate for
the almost 5 million it would lose.
