Why is Facebook Still relevant today ?

When asked to list any social media ,it common you'd probably start with the most popular of them, Facebook!. So what makes this interactive technology still relevant to people despite its competition and old Age.

Login with Facebook

you have definitely come across that well placed button that says "sign up using Facebook" on other websites and you'd admit it takes the stress from having to fill in text fields and trying to remember passwords
this little service is why people still keep Facebook around,one click and you are in.

Facebook as a phone book

We do miss people and sometimes lost contact with them. Again you'd admit whenever you are looking for a long lost buddy you'd hit that that social media phone-book called Facebook. Facebook has down tools that can help you find and keep in touch ,even if that loved one doesn't have a Facebook account, they probably have friend of friends who can help you get in touch.I guess for some reason it keep Facebook relevant.

Facebook Business tools

Facebook has grown to become a digital market place, Facebook has over 2.79 billion users in 2020 cut that number in half and you would have potential customers.Advertising your business or products to reach your specific target audience by either age,gender,occupation,location,inter is a benefit.
Facebook business tools keeps it on the scale of relevance.

Facebook is not just an app

Products

Facebook is not just an app like back in 2004. Now they have over
61 product and service. Let say the "Facebook mobile and web app" where to some how disappear from earth.They would still be in business because of it other products like WhatsApp or Instagram and services like analytics or audience Insight.
here is list of their services Facebook products and services

India is a Big fan

Among countries with Active Facebook users, India has 375 million users and growing . That is a huge fan love, and guessing if the rest of the world should dump Facebook India would still keep it relevant for years.

Will Facebook live Forever ?

Facebook has built contingencies leaning form where other social media and businesses have failed. It is safe to say their idea is to win and provide futuristic tech services, which people will heavily need to relay on. Take Facebook Oculus for instance, a dive into argument-ed reality (AR). All these ideas will keep Facebook around for along while.
