Is Google+ female dominated?
It’s hard to believe that Google+,the new social networking site from Google is not a male dominated network. Statistics reveal that Google+ is about to reach 10million users and 33percent of users as of July 14th are female.
The methodology Allen from Ancestory.com in estimating Google+ statistics varies from other Google+ data sources. The data from US Census Bureau is being compared with Google+ users. By comparing surname popularity in the U.S. with the number of users on Google+ with each surname, he can guesstimate the percentage of the U.S. population that signed up for Google+. We’re not sure how census data can be applied to gender, especially on a social network, but we’ve reached out to Allen for additional information on how his data was composited.
The marketing services from Google has put on a lot of emphasis for women which implies that women are prime target for Google+
Google+ has totally a different interface and I think that users will find time to get adapted to it with especially facebook making a lot of changes.
