MySpace Global Traffic Falls behind Facebook

comScore’s May numbers shows that Facebook’s global traffic grows past MySpace. Facebook, according to ComScore, attracted 123.9 million unique visitors in the month of May, beating MySpace’s 114.6, and 50.6 billion page views compared to MySpace’s 45.4 billion. But in US MySpace remains far ahead of Facebook with 73.7 million unique visitors versus Facebook’s 35.6 million US visitors. Even though MySpace and Facebook are the main players in the social networking market, there are many other social networks with big followings in different regions of the globe that pose local competition. Orkut, owned by Google, has a lock on Brazil and also eats up a big portion of the market in India. Hi5 is big in Latin America. Facebook recently took out a $100 million loan to keep up with its phenomenal growth.
