19 minutes on Facebook a day!

That is right, the average Facebook user spends 19 minutes a day on Facebook.  To state site usage in terms of minutes is an eternity in cyberspace.

In contrast, you have 3-5 seconds to connect with a person on your site.  In this3-5 seconds the person will decide whether or not he/she wants to spend more time on your site.

So 1140 seconds is 19 minutes that is proven an average facebook user is online at Facebook.  Yep, the person is most likely looking at new pictures, new videos, and seeing the new stuff put up by their friends.

But what if one of the ads on Facebook in 3-5 seconds of the 1140 seconds a person is there catches their eye and they click the ad?  What if a fan page of a friend catches their eye and they click through to see what that page is all about?  What if a helpful hint in their newsfeed is really helpful and they click through to a blog post?

There are so many ways to connect with people of Facebook.  And to have a person’s concentrated attention for 19 minutes a day online a bit mind boggling.
