Let's start with the newcomer in this year's research report: TikTok. Where TikTok wasn't buy phone number list even mentioned in the 2019 social media research, it's on the list of highlights this year. With 700,000 users aged 15+ and 425,000 users aged 6 to 14 in the Netherlands alone!
So popular, but apparently not a trend we saw coming last year. Because Musical.ly, as TikTok was called before the takeover of the company ByteDance, is not mentioned in the 2019 report. And this while Tumblr with 115,000, WeChat with 91,000 and even Foursquare with 77,000 users were mentioned last year. But one thing is certain: TikTok is popular .
Popular with 15-
It is actually a pity that the social media research of Newcom Research is conducted among 7,000 Dutch people aged 15 and older, because a large part of the users of this social media platform are younger than 15 years old. In the research they asked the parents who participated about the social media behavior of their children. That is how these figures were arrived at.
