New York: CEO of social website Twitter, Dick Costolo has revealed some statistics about Twitter’s insane growth. Twitter now has over 100 million active users and that signups via iOS have tripled since the launch of iOS 5.
It was only back in June that Twitter was hitting 200 million tweets per day, but this number has expanded out to 250 million tweets per day. If we rewind back to January 2011, there were around 100 million tweets per day.
Costolo revealed these stats during an interview at the Web 2.0 Summit in San Francisco.
Of those 100 million global active users, half of them log in daily. “We had 30% of our monthly active users loggin in every day at the beginning of the year. Now it’s over 50%,” Costolo revealed.
The company’s growth amounts to about 40% quarter on quarter. But perhaps the most interesting stat is the impact of iOS 5 on Twitter. Apple’s mobile OS directly integrates Twitter, and that has resulted in a boost for the company. Costolo revealed that Twitter signups via iOS 5 devices have tripled since the launch of that iOS update.
