In the global mobile social networks market, the top mobile social networking applications are Facebook,
YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Google Plus+, Tumblr, Instagram, Reddit and VK. The difference
between mobile-based and web-based social networks is soon getting blurred as mobile applications are
using existing social network websites to design native communities, taking advantage of mobile features
and accessibility. As mobile devices got advanced and received full mobile access to the Internet, two types
of distinct mobile social networks were formed namely web based social networks and native mobile social
networks. Web based social networks are the one’s which are available for mobile access through mobile

use like mobile communication, location-based services, and augmented reality, requiring mobile devices
and technology. However, both native mobile social networks and web-based social networks have to often
work symbiotically to spread content, increase accessibility and connect users from around the globe.
