Facebook and YouTube dominate mobile traffic in early 2014, as more people turn to a mobile device to upload photos to social networks and watch videos .
Facebook and YouTube now account for 32% of data sent to and from mobile devices, according to a report from Sandvine. Individually, Facebook was 26.9% for upstream traffic and had a 14% share for downstream traffic during peak periods in North America earlier this year, while YouTube had only a 3.7% share for upstream traffic but a 17.6% share for downstream.
With Facebook's high upstream traffic, it appears that users are uploading photos and videos from mobile devices more than ever to the social network. YouTube's downstream traffic share is essentially unchanged from Sandvine's figure from last year, at 17.7%.
The following chart, created by statista, lists the top 10 web services by their mobile traffic share. The full report can be viewed on Sandvine's website.
