Free Online Reputation Analysis

Here are some quick facts and stats about twitter that are really interesting:

2 out of every 10 users joined twitter out of curiosity. And still, they didn’t even tweet.

If you are a woman, it is 25% more likely to follow a man than another woman.

Only 15% of the users remember to tweet every day. (The rest 85% have to set a reminder..)

If you have over 1000 followers, you should tell your friends you belong to the top 0.76% of all twitter users.

If you don’t want anybody to read your tweet, post it around 5am (EST).

99,3% of the users decided to hide their age upon registration.

Did you start tweeting 2x more just after reaching 1000 followers? Apparently, you did!

One of the most common phrases in the users’ bio is “happily married”. Hmm..

      Only two out of ten users are just curious? I thought with the lower retention rate that Twitter has that fraction would be more like 6 out of 10. . . Crazy facts though! Thanks for sharing!
