Did you know that Iran’s brands are the ones that most use Facebook?
What about Bangladesh’ companies having the highest percentage of Instagram profiles? We have analyzed all brands included in Alianzo that have at least one social media from the 25 most populated countries in order to find out which social networks they use among Twitter, Facebook, Youtube, Google+ and Instagram. And these are the main results:

Facebook:

Iran stands out as the country with the highest percentage of use by brands (86%), followed by Turkey (84%), Vietnam (83%), Spain (80%), Italy (79%), Brazil (78%), Mexico (77%) and Egypt (76%). All of them are also countries in which Facebook is widespread.

We could have also analyzed VKontakte and Weibo, but as you know they mostly have Russian and Chinese companies. Alianzo also includes these data.

Note: We have excluded Ethiopia, Myanmar and the Congo Republic from the top 25 most populated countries and they almost have no companies on Alianzo. We included in their place Colombia, South Korea and Spain.
