Social Discovery Leader Enhances Chat and Reaches Record Number
NEW HOPE, Pa.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
MeetMe, Inc. (NASDAQ: MEET), the public market leader for social
discovery, announced today that it set a new daily record for the number
of user-to-user chats sent on Monday of this week. For the first time in
MeetMe’s history, more than 15 million chats were sent on a single day.
“We’re thrilled to have achieved 15 million chats sent on MeetMe in a
day,” said MeetMe CEO Geoff Cook. “In April, only a few months ago, we
weren’t consistently breaking 10 million daily chats. This acceleration
in chat activity is a testament to the strength of our recent launches,
including Friend Suggestions and Icebreakers. We believe it also
reflects our audience’s strong desire to connect and communicate with
new people. As we continue to optimize MeetMe to funnel traffic into
Chat more efficiently, we believe we will see additional growth in chat
activity and overall mobile daily active users (DAU).”
