Social Networking has been
strongly wired with the lives of current generation of people that they can't
go a day without scrolling through their favorite social networking accounts.
To be more precise, social networking has become their way of life as people
are not able to forego posting things that they are interested about or they go
through in their day to day lives.
VK.com is a popular social
networking site in Russia which is accounted be the country that is highly
active in social networking. VK.com formerly known as VKontakte is a greatly
engaging site that attracts the membership of most of the younger generation.
To be clear, what Facebook is to Indian users is what VK.com is to Russian
users. Being the 2nd most reputed social networking site, it pushes down
Facebook to 4th place by attracting over 50.2 million visitors per month.
VK.com becomes compatible
with PC and also with phones as it took the form of digitabke that is available
in Google Playstore and App Store. With VK.com, you can share your personal
photos, videos and stories from time to time and can get connected to your old
buddies of your childhood to famous artists and celebrities who have already
enrolled in the site. Even at the point of time when Facebook enabled people to
create their profiles, connect to friends and post statuses, VK.com went ahead
a step of Facebook and paved its users way for free file sharing. It means
apart from sharing personal photos and videos, users can share third party
music and videos. Consequently, Russian users found VK.com to be much
interesting than the Facebook.
As like Facebook messenger,
VK.com also does have way for you to message your friends and family even in groups.
VK does have different online community pages that integrate different people
with common interest. You can choose to join any community of your interest and
can even make friends with new people.
VK facilitates live
streaming of videos when you are far away from your home and taking part in any
events or trips. So that your family and friends can join you virtually and can
able to watch the events around you in live.
Not only common people but
also famous artists, for example musicians make use of the social platform of
VK to promote their tracks on the official VK pages. VK also bears the feature
of synchronization with other social networks. . For instance if you update any
posts in VK, it will get published in Facebook or Twitter accounts that you are
signed in simultaneously. You can also choose not to sync the updates to other
sites by clicking the logo that is next to "send” button.
While all other social
networking sites like Facebook are striving to establish them to be successful
all around the world, VK.com brilliantly focused on a single demography i.e.
Russia and become so successful than others with its more engaging features.
