MobiLuck exceeds one million members

MOBILUCK, the Paris-based mobile services company that provides a location-based mobile social network, has announced today that it has exceeded one million members worldwide since the launch of its service two years ago.

MobiLuck allows users to find nearby friends, people and places using simply their mobile. It is one of the largest worldwide location-based mobile social networks in the world and the fastest-growing with 6 000 new members per day. Page views tripled over the last three months to 42 million per month.

Mobile social networking is the number one use of the mobile internet worldwide and a billion people will be doing it by 2012, according to Pyramid Research. MobiLuck is critically positioned to grab a large share of this growing market. "The service is designed to work on all devices, in all countries, on all carriers, it’s free and it’s a pure mobile web service with no download required," says Olivier Chouraki, founder and CEO of MobiLuck. “So everyone can use it.”

MobiLuck’s users are an average 23 years of age and come mainly from the US, Europe, India, Middle East and South Africa. This new generation of users is making the most of their mobile, using it as their primary connection to the internet. They want a full social networking experience on the go so they can be always connected with their friends wherever they are. They constitute an attractive audience for brands and premium ad agencies who are currently seeing 2 per cent click through rates on their ads on MobiLuck. By combining volume with the ability to target users by age, gender and location, Mobiluck expects continued healthy growth in this area of the business.
