Israeli Facebook Members Rise by 100%

Facebook is hitting the world with fire at a rapid rate. Israel’s members on the Facebook network have risen by 100% during the last one month or so. According to news reports, the numbers have bettered by 100 percent since mid-October, from 74,000 to 152,000.

Essentially, the members comprise the quality target audience between the ages of 25 and 40 who are “early adapters,” or among the first users of new technologies. The upsurge in the site members has also lured the Israeli advertisers to publicize on the popular site. 

Ark Interactive’s CEO, Tamir Gordon, said  that their clients expressed interest in joining Facebook after hearing about it from their friends. He also talked about the cheap costs associated with advertising on Facebook which is roughly NIS 15,000-20,000, approximately ten times less than the cost of doing so via Walla, the Israeli Internet portal. 

Till last week, a company could advertise on Facebook only through banner ads, but this changed when Facebook launched a new advertising system that enables organizations to introduce ads into the user pages of its 50 million members, and launch dedicated pages on the site for their brands.
