As we predicted last week, for the first ever time Facebook received more UK Internet visits that Google UK on Christmas Day. As the chart below illustrates, on Christmas Day (December 25th) facebook.com accounted for 10.50% of all UK Internet visits, while the figure for google.co.uk was 9.77%. This was the first time that Facebook has ever been the most popular UK website, but the social network is unlikely to maintain its position for reasons we have outlined before.
You make me wonder what the stats for the US sites were? I know I was on both even on Christmas Day wishing good tidings to all.
