It’s a fact: if you want your website to make you money, generate leads or get subscribers you have to advertise in order to drive traffic to it. Of course this is true for any business, but it is absolutely essential for online business.

Hi Alex

Two things are possible:

1. The numbers are incorrect. I will recheck but I'll guess they are somewhat dated but accurate enough as the sources were reliable.

2. A large portion of Facebook users in Turkey, Indonesia and the Phillipines are working out of Internet Cafe's or on their phones. My bet is that this is the answer and the genius of having Facebook in the cloud with such a tiny footprint that common computers and phones work as clients.

I'll recheck and rethink but my gut tells me something like #2 is the answer.

Thnx much for kicking on these and for your time and input.
