You know, as much as we all like to say that instagram, twitter, and other platforms have taken over Facebook, it is still one of the largest platforms connecting people across the world.

Maybe the fact is that instagram has occupied all the young and teen or younger part of the population, while facebook is taken up by most of the elders from the age group of probably 28 and plus, with a few exceptions.

So Facebook, now Meta, is still a great wide marketplace! Especially now that Facebook has acquired instagram and even whatsapp.

No, Facebook is not outdated.

Facebook’s user base spans across countries and cultures, making it a valuable platform for connecting with people from diverse backgrounds.  

Facebook offers a wide range of tools and features for businesses to connect with customers, market products, and build brand awareness.

Facebook groups continue to be a popular way for people to build communities.

So we still have a lot of scope if you utilize it the right way!
