Premier League teams on Facebook: the season so far [Infographic]

The guys at Locowise, a social media analytics platform, have put together a really interesting infographic reviewing the season so far from a Facebook perspective.

It not only looks at the growth in numbers at different clubs but also at where these fans are coming from, how the newest clubs to the English football elite have fared, engagement levels and the number of posts each club are publishing.

It makes for interesting reading and produces some very tweetable stats, such as…

  • 36% of all Premier League club fans on Facebook are Manchester United fans
  • The smallest Facebook fan base belongs to Crystal Palace (35k)
  • 20% of Fulham fans are from Costa Rica (home to striker Bryan Ruiz)
  • Aston Villa average 11 posts per day, but are bottom of the table in terms of engagement
  • Stoke City don’t even average 1 post per day
  • Southampton have the highest page engagement rate (22.1%)

These and many other interesting snippets of information are available.  As a club, it will be interesting to see what they do and don’t do so well and use some of those insights into using the platform better.

How has your club performed so far?
