When it comes to marketing, segmenting social media content for your audience is key. And one way to target your social media marketing efforts is by age group.

In this infographic from WebPage FX, you can see just how large the generational gaps can be on social media. For example, did you know that Generation Xers between the ages of 36 and 49 make up 36% of Pinterest users, 93% of whom have shopped online in the past six months? 

There are huge segments of social media users who want to hear from brands. Check out the infographic below to learn more about how they're using social networks and how you can target them more effectively.
