As we prepare to roll out our new statistics tools tomorrow, we are looking at some of the fastest growing Facebook Pages. Given that many of the same pages remain on the leaderboard, I’ve decided to select the fastest growing Pages that we didn’t mention last week. Thankfully there are plenty to list, so below are 10 Facebook Pages that are exploding in popularity.
Now that the World Cup has ended, other soccer leagues are the center of attention as global popularity of the sport continues to grow. Not surprisingly, Manchester United, who’s season just started, has seen their fan base explode by over 350,000 fans over the past week, rapidly nearing 1 million fans. I’d expect that number to continue to increase in the coming days and weeks. You can view their page here. Manchester United
Despicable Me, a recently launched movie featuring Steve Carrell has seen its fan base surge over the past week by over 255,000 fans. Whether or not the movie is good (I haven’t personally seen it), it’s growing like crazy. You can become a fan here. Despicable Me
If you haven’t heard of The Kardashians, you’ve been living under a rock for too long. The television show is massively popular and it’s also somewhat addictive (yes, I’ve watched it myself). If you happen to be a fan of the show, you can go join the show’s page here. Keeping Up With The Kardashians
I have to confess that this is one of my favorite television shows. If I watched television, I’d probably be watching this whenever it was on. Over the past week, the show’s Facebook Page has jumped by over 170,000 fans, most likely because it was added to Facebook’s recommended Pages lists, although I don’t know for sure. If you also enjoy the show, you can go become a fan here. Rob Dyrdek’s Fantasy Factory
One Facebook Page which has been jumping in popularity for some unknown reason is “The Beach Boys”, the old rock band. My guess is that it’s related to it being the summertime, yet unfortunately I have no way of knowing where all the fans came from. If you enjoy “The Beach Boys”, you can go become a fan here.The Beach Boys
Estathè is another phenomenon I wasn’t aware of because I’m not a member of the target member. It appears to be an Italian beverage (tea) which is insanely popular as it added over 150,000 fans last week. If you’ve consumed the beverage before and enjoyed it, you can become a fan here.Estathè
While Britney Spears’ sister has never been on the MTV show, 16 And Pregnant, she was once 16 and pregnant which is why this is the first thing that popped up when I searched for it on Google. If you happen to be a young female who’s at risk of becoming pregnant, you may want to check out the show. You can become a fan here. 16 And Pregnant
If you haven’t heard of it yet, Inception appears to be the must-see movie of the summer. The box office hit has attracted over 127,000 fans in the past week. If you’ve seen the movie and enjoyed it or simply want to learn more, you can go become a fan here.Inception
Not surprisingly, Spain has witnessed a surge in popularity following the country’s victory in the World Cup. Whether or not the office of tourism is investing heavily in promoting the country, their Facebook Page has seen a surge in popularity, growing by over 120,000 fans alone in the past week. If you wish to support the country, you can go become a fan here. Spain
The last Facebook Page which has been exploding in popularity over the past week is the popular TV show, Deadliest Catch. The show, which documents crabbers in the arctic, has seen a jump of more than 109,000 fans over the past week. If you watch the show and enjoy it, you can go become a fan here.Deadliest Catch
Head Beach Boy honcho Brian Wilson has a new album coming out soon. And fellow Beach Boy Alan Jardine just released a solo album featuring a bunch of guest-stars including Steve Miller and Alec Baldwin.
That’s probably why.
What about pages like Monster Energy? They surpassed 2 Million fans a few days ago and they are still growing.
