<p>Are you average?  Because, if you are &#8211; you are viewing a staggering 662 pages on Facebook each month, according to a <a href="http://royal.pingdom.com/2010/01/12/and-the-most-engaging-social-network-is/" target="_blank">recent study</a> done by Pingdom.  Facebook is the lead horse in the Social Networking race (but we&#8217;ve known that for a while). The differentiator for Facebook that sets them above the crop of Social Networking sites on the Web is two-fold.  Not only is their user base gigantic (larger than the <a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/facebook_launches_prototype_crowdsourcing_product.php" target="_blank">entire population</a> of the United States), but as the chart below (<em>courtesy: Silicon Alley Insider</em>) clearly shows &#8211; they are a very loyal lot as well.  Loyal not just to the destination on Facebook, but as WebProNews <a href="http://www.webpronews.com/topnews/2009/10/06/the-most-loyal-traffic-comes-from-facebook" target="_blank">shows</a> &#8211; it is also the largest generator of referral traffic to sites outside of FB.com&#8230;effectively matching the combined referral traffic generated by Google and Bing.  The moral?  Size matters&#8230;.but so does commitment.  You&#8217;ve won if you have both.</p>
