Twitter Top 25 Update – May 2011

Gregg Blanchard   /   May 2, 2011

Summer is nearly upon us, and so is another drop in the increase in Twitter followers for the last month. From 5.12% at the April update, that number was cut in half this time around. It didn’t mean that everyone slowed, however, with resorts that are still opening snagging 6%+ growth on their follower counts. Here’s all the details of the May 2011 update of the Top 25 Ski Resorts on Twitter list.

Movers

• Snowbird, backed by a record snow year and being the only resort open in the state, snagged a 6.31% increase in their follower count
• Whistler Blackcomb, as usual, continues to amaze, snagging more than 1000 new followers (a 6.66% increase) since the last update.
• Average growth for a Top 25 resort’s follower count was 2.70%
• The average number of followers gained was 321.5.

All the Changes
Just four changes to report.

• Snowbird (+3)
• Canyons (-1)
