Facebook is still a powerhouse in social media, with over 2.9 billion monthly active users worldwide. Despite new competition from platforms like Instagram and TikTok, Facebook’s broad, multi-generational user base offers unmatched reach for businesses looking to grow. For brands aiming to connect with audiences of all ages, Facebook remains a crucial part of any marketing strategy. Partnering with a social media marketing agency like Amber 90 can help maximize this opportunity.
