Twitter last evening announced hitting the 200 million active user mark monthly amidst its disintegration with Facebook owned Instagram.
The company announced,”There are now more than 200M monthly active @twitter users. You are the pulse of the planet. We’re grateful for your ongoing support!”
Othman Laraki,VP growth & international at Twitter said,“Can’t be prouder of what the growth & intl teams have achieved & thrilled to witness next chapter of history written (by and on @twitter).”
He added,” @twitter When we set up Growth @twitter, we came up with what seemed like an insane human-scale target of over 200M. Now, here we are.”
In March the firm celebrated its six years of existence and celebrated its humble beginning when Jack Dorsey co-founded it in March 2006.
According to the firm, there never seemed ways to express oneself in 140 characters as now it is.
Twitter in March had over 140 million active users with 340 million Tweets a day. “That’s more than 1 billion every 3 days,” the firm said.
Twitter still thanks you the user as a vital link in their growth, the firm said,” Without you, of course, there wouldn’t be a Twitter. We mark our sixth birthday with you in mind, and celebrate your myriad ways of engaging, enjoying, and emoting on our platform. As Jack noted when he posted his sketch of the service he envisioned, “I’m happy this idea has taken root; I hope it thrives.” Thanks to you, it is.”
But the firm is not stopping on the 200 million active users.
According to Amy Sapper, Sales Operation at Twitter, the firm wants to have the world covered with twitter users.
She said,”So proud to work for a company on its way to reach every person on the planet. 200 million active @twitter users and counting!
