Since its launching in 2004, Flickr has acquired over 90 million monthly users. Who are all these people you may wonder? First, let’s dive into their customer demographics. Flickr operates mainly in five countries, USA, UK, Japan, Germany, and France. The majority of Flickr’s users are located in the USA. The average age of their users is between 35-44 years old. Approximately 55% of Flickr’s users are women and the rest consist of men. It’s very common for photo-sharing apps to attract more women. In fact, 17 out of 24 sites have more female than male users. Flickr prides itself on providing a photo-sharing platform to professional photographers to the everyday iPhone snapping user. Although professional photographers use Flickr, the majority of its users are normal intermediate cameraphone users. “Maybe they want to keep a blog of moments captured on their cameraphone, or maybe they want to show off their best pictures or video to the whole world in a bid for web celebrity. Or maybe they want to securely and privately share photos of their kids with their family across the country. Flickr makes all these things possible and more!”
