But with 116.8 million US internet users already logging on to the site at least once monthly that year, growth rates were bound to plateau.By 2011 Facebook user growth rose a comparatively small 13.4%, and this year will be the first when growth rates drop to the single digits. Rates of change in the US will continue to decline throughout eMarketer’s forecast period.
