Dependence on Twitter and Facebook

According to Sonia Got, Mediaset has a very high dependence of two networks: Twitter and Facebook.

Instagram, which belongs to Facebook, is growing strongly, but also has a great organic weight but sometimes already we find stories that bring more traffic than FB. But, at the moment, it is not a frequent phenomenon", said.
