Gallup suggests that blogs are catching on with web users and their online activities.
Their latest poll, who surveyed 1,013 adults nationally, found that:
- 73% of Americans who use the Web
- 87% use email
- 72% check news and weather
- 52% shop
- 52% plan travel
- 28% use instant messaging
- 23% participate in online auctions
- 22% view videocasts
- 22% download music
- 20% consult blogs at least “occassionally” and “frequently”
In terms of blog activity, there is a slight gender gap (24% of men and 17% of women read them), and of course a generation gap, with 28% of those 18 to 29 using them and only 17% of those over 50.
Nearly 60% still say they “never” look at blogs – but we have to wonder how many are looking at them without realizing that they are.
So, it’s obvious that blogging is catching on, let ContentRobot help you to get your’s launched today.
