The 25 Most Popular Pages on Facebook
|
Six months ago, Facebook launched Pages as a way for “businesses, brands, and celebrities to represent themselves on Facebook.” Now that Pages have been out for six months, we thought we’d see who’s got the most fans on Facebook.
So here’s the list of the 25 Most Popular Pages on Facebook. The results?
- Amy Winehouse has more fans than John McCain. And so does Nutella.
- There’s no stopping Barack. He has twice as many fans as anyone or anything else.
- Pages are all about the music. 40% of the top 25 are bands.
- Some brands have made a big splash.
What does this say about marketing on Facebook?

Nutella!?!??!?!
Plus….who knew that Daft Punk would be out Kanye AND Radiohead….
Not too much country music love in Facebook groups. Hmm…

What Nutella didn’t beat Hillary? No seriously, Obama being on top of that list shows, that Facebook profiles and groups are not just about fun and entertainment, but more grown up topics (like politics) as well.

What this is lacking is a correlation to their presence on Facebook before becoming a Page. For example, Pink by Victoria’s Secret was one of the first brands to make it big as a group. I’d say that attributes to their success. Likewise you can’t deny that having the first fast growing group of One Million Strong didn’t help Obama.

Well, Michael Jackson has just destroyed this list. At this very point in time his fans amount to a sum greater than 7.5 million, increasing at a rate of around 100-300 people every ten seconds, seeming unlikely that it will show signs of slowing within the near future.
July 14th, 2009 at 9:18 am
Michael Jackson has +9.2 million fans

Now that everyone’s mom is on Facebook, I’m sure Tupperware will become a top page:

Ok… here’s something I have to say. If you have a facebook (this is going out to anyone who reads this) then search for “Official Avatar Movie” without the quotes. It has over 1,000,000 fans. So obviously Barack Obama is not the most liked thing on facebook. Neither is Texas Hold ‘Em. Whoever made this really needs to update it. I am not trying to be rude but I am a very big fan of the movie Avatar. If this came across to anyone as obnoxious or anything of the sort, I apoligize to you,
May 17th, 2010 at 4:56 pm
hello, now it has changed, Michael Jackson is king of yet anotehr thing: facebook, with nearly 12 million fans, and the second is…Homer Simpson, and then barak Obama. :)

Texas Hold’Em Poker is most popular with almost 20million fans!
July 2nd, 2010 at 11:47 pm
Why its always a scene that, the brands first creates the community pages and then hands over to users/community. Doesn’t the brands name get affected by this?
August 16th, 2010 at 11:30 pm

GAGA has 16000000 fans but has alot more people who would like to kill her. Seriously shes just messed up.

Lady Gaga, Micheal Jackson and Avatar are actually the highest three… In that order. puH-lease….
