According to Hitwise, more Brits now visit social media sites such as Facebook than adult sites. The trend began last October.
Hitwise says that their findings reveal that more than half (55%) of visitors to social networks and forums are women.
From the Hitwise blog, "In the US social networks first overtook adult sites in mid 2007, but since then the two categories have been battling it out with no clear winner emerging."
"Looking at the chart above, we may be in for a similar situation in the UK; social networks have stayed ahead of adult sites since overtaking them, but the gap hasn't widened much in the last couple of months."
