Tweens Online
OK, so not the Tweenies, but Tweens (consumers aged 10-14) use the internet too, according to new research from the amazingly named Double Click Perfomics (surely Performics isn't a word)
Key points from this rsearch that are of interest for us:
- 83% said they spend at least an hour per day online
- Nearly half of respondents go online many times per day (more than three), and 87% usually spend at least a half hour each time.
- 72% have a profile on at least one social networking site
· 54% have a MySpace profile
· 35% have a Facebook profile
· 45% have some other social networking profile
· 64% visit social networking sites at least once per day
· 34% spend four or more hours per week on social networking sites
- Only eight percent said they read blogs frequently; another 31% said occasionally. Forty percent said rarely, and 20% said never.
