Knowing Top Asian Social Network

By: Shellaine Enfesta Home |


There is a huge marketing and advertising for the biggest and most popular social network sites around the world. Most if not all of these sites caters to teenagers, their friends, classmates, coworkers, and the people around them. Knowing the top Asian online social utility network is not that hard. There are possibly three to five big time social networks in the continent of Asia and the Asean. But the more important question is, can they compete globally and perform as good as they are outside of their own turf?

China, Japan, and Korea have their own big time social network sites that are generating huge income every year. They probably make more money than one of the most popular social network in the US. But these big time Asian online social utility networking sites cannot penetrate the US market which the biggest market of them all. And besides, if you cater to the US market, you will definitely make more money than those smaller advertisers in Asia.

These top Asian social networks are more into advertising and selling digital products which are very hot in Asia. They do make a lot of money from these products and wanted to stay in the confines of Asia and the Asean. Nowadays, there are too many social sites that cater to almost anything you can imagine. But the most popular ones are those that cater to people, friends, classmates and coworkers who want to keep in touch.

Keeping in touch is almost always what is your mind especially if you have friends, relatives, classmates and people around them that live far from you. The emergence of this phenomenon is because of our closeness to the people we love. These online websites really feed into these kinds of things. This is much evident because of the easy accessibility for anyone who may want to get in touch with someone anywhere in the world on the internet.

The top Asian social networks are Mixi of Japan, QQ in China, and Cyworld from Korea. These online social networking sites are very competitive in terms of the money they make. What most people would like to see is for these networking sites to be more proactive in their push to penetrate the US market. For many people and friends, they would like to see that this will not be controlled by only few. If it is controlled by only few then the next thing that would happen is what we have seen with Microsoft. Microsoft dominated the market and it takes some powerful lobbying and antitrust laws to break the monopoly.

Some up and coming online social utility sites should get the break and have a piece of the market in order to avoid monopoly. Since one of the biggest markets is Asia and the regional places like the Asian South East Asian nationals face, they should get these new online social utility networking sites competitive. Asians and south East Asian nationals are all over the world and this can help this up and coming new ones compete and prevent online social network site being monopolize by only a few big time sites.
