Social Media is quite young computer-based technology but really rapidly developing.
The first recognizable social media site, Six Degrees, was created in 1997. It enabled users to upload a profile and make friends with other users.

It's 2018. Nowadays, people have so many social networking sites, tools, apps etc..
Each of them has specific audience, functions, aims and presents detailed analytics.

On that day most popular social networking sites are:
  1. Facebook
  2. YouTube
  3. Instagram
  4. Twitter
  5. Reddit
  6. Pinterest
  7. Ask.fm

Social Networking sites also trying to get place on the sun. It is plus for both sides. Facebook, for example, offer Audience Insight. It says:
"The more customer insights you have, the better you’re equipped to deliver meaningful messages to people.
