Methodology: How we did it
The research has retained a consistent methodology
throughout Wave 1, 2 and 3. All surveys have been scripted
and hosted on Universal McCann’s in-house online research
system, Intuition. All surveys are self completion and the data
collected is entirely quantitative. Every market is representative
of the 16-54 Active Internet Universe. In this Wave 17,000
internet users in 29 countries were interviewed. To be included
you need to be using the internet everyday or every other day.

Putting the results into context
To help provide a more complete picture,
the analysis in this report puts the results
into context in two ways;
23 China 1. Market by market universe estimates

61m
26 27
2. Penetration of usage among all 16-54s.

Both these figures are estimates based on
21 the above universe sizes. When estimating
24 global usage figures of different social media
25
technologies we make the fair assumption
that the vast majority of users will be active
22
28 users and between the ages of 16-54.

How did we get to these universe figures?

Local market data from TGI, Simmons or
equivalent provided penetration figures for
16-54s by market and levels of active usage.
These were correlated with Internet World
Stats, CIA World Factbook and Comscore.

29 The general rule is the more developed a
market is, the higher in home and at work
internet connections are, which leads to
higher levels of active usage.

Reading blogs: usage trends
Blogging shows no signs of slowing its growing prominence in popular culture and society.

Politicians, celebrities, brands and family members all seem to have one. Traditional media outlets use them to supplement their normal
output. At the same time legions of micropublishers have utilised blogs to start mini media empires, from Perez Hilton to Treehugger in
every niche imaginable. The result is a massive wealth of new sources of information that we continue to digest.

• Growth continues at a global level • Very high frequency medium
– 77% Read blogs – up 11% on Wave 2 – 50% daily reach in Brazil and Japan

• Saturation in growth in some markets • Blogs are primarily a community media
– South Korea, China, Italy and Russia all reached their – Personal blogs and friend and family blogs are number
limits of growth one destination for reading

• logging as a collective rivals traditional media
B • They’re not for geeks
– 70% weekly reach – Music, TV, film and News are the next highest destinations
