Facebook's "renewed push into mobile news reflects a big, global shift in media consumption patterns," said the Financial Times.
《金融時(shí)報(bào)》聲稱：“Facebook再度進(jìn)軍移動(dòng)新聞，這反映出媒體消費(fèi)模式的巨大、全球性轉(zhuǎn)變。”
Facebook's profit and revenue growth reflected this shift in media. The world's largest social media platform said its third-quarter revenue grew to $4.5 billion on the strength of its mobile advertising.
Facebook利潤(rùn)與收入的增長(zhǎng)反映出媒體的這種轉(zhuǎn)變。這個(gè)全球最大的社交平臺(tái)表示，憑借移動(dòng)廣告的收入，該公司第三季度收入增長(zhǎng)至45億美元。
Facebook, with 500 million users, has doubled its daily page views to 8 billion since April. The company also owns Instagram, a mobile photo and video-sharing app with 400 million users. Analysts were optimistic about Instagram's future growth.
Facebook，擁有5億用戶，四月以來(lái)，該網(wǎng)站每日的頁(yè)面瀏覽量增加一倍，達(dá)到80億。該公司還推行Instagram，一款移動(dòng)照片與視頻分享的應(yīng)用程序，其擁有4億用戶。分析師對(duì)Instagram未來(lái)的發(fā)展持樂觀態(tài)度。
Research firm eMarketer predicted global mobile advertising revenues for Instagram will reach $2.8 billion by 2017, up from $595 million this year. This represents over 10 percent of Facebook's global advertising revenues.
市場(chǎng)研究公司eMarketer預(yù)測(cè)Instagram的全球移動(dòng)廣告收入將從今年的5.95億美元增加到2017年的28億美元。這占據(jù)Facebook全球廣告收入的10%以上。
This strong showing has positioned Facebook to compete with major social media companies as an advertising force, said analysts. "Facebook will drive growth and capture nearly 65% of social network ad revenues in 2015," reported eMarketer.
分析師表示，這種強(qiáng)勁增長(zhǎng)已經(jīng)將Facebook定位，作為廣告主力軍同各大社交媒體公司相抗衡。eMarketer報(bào)告稱，“Facebook將推動(dòng)增長(zhǎng)，并占據(jù)2015年社交網(wǎng)絡(luò)廣告收入的近65%。”
Sheryl Sandberg is Facebook's Chief Operating Officer. "In the medium to long run, we believe that we're not competing between Facebook and Instagram. We're competing with other forms of media," Sandberg told analysts on a conference call. Visit the website www.chinavoa.com to get more information!
Facebook首席運(yùn)營(yíng)官，謝莉爾•桑德博格（Sheryl Sandberg），在一次電話會(huì)議上告訴分析師：“從長(zhǎng)遠(yuǎn)來(lái)看，我們認(rèn)為，我們并不是在Facebook和Instagram之間進(jìn)行競(jìng)爭(zhēng)，而是在同其他形式的媒體進(jìn)行競(jìng)爭(zhēng)。”
She said Facebook wants to grow in emerging markets and bring more people online who are not using the Internet.
她表示Facebook希望在新興市場(chǎng)國(guó)家擴(kuò)大運(yùn)營(yíng)，并帶動(dòng)更多不使用網(wǎng)絡(luò)的人上網(wǎng)。
The advertising environment on social media is very competitive. Social media platforms are fighting for customers on laptops, tablets, phones and even watches.
社交媒體的廣告環(huán)境競(jìng)爭(zhēng)非常激烈。各個(gè)社交媒體平臺(tái)都在爭(zhēng)搶筆記本電腦、平板電腦、手機(jī)甚至是智能手表的用戶。
Twitter is one of Facebook's competitors. Twitter's advertising revenues have slowed as the company struggles to add new users, reported the Wall Street Journal. Another competitor, Google, is selling more advertisements for less money on its own sites, said Ad Age.
Twitter是Facebook競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手之一。據(jù)《華爾街日?qǐng)?bào)》報(bào)道，隨著Twitter難以增加新用戶，其廣告收入增速已經(jīng)放緩?！稄V告時(shí)代》則表示，另一位競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手Google，自有網(wǎng)站的更多廣告正在降價(jià)銷售。
