<p><P><P>We like numbers and one of our most exciting times of year is to look back and see how things stacked up against previous years. For example, we saw a 51%+ increase in website traffic from 2016 compared to 2015. Across social media platforms, we saw our Facebook audience grow by 150%, Twitter by 36%, and Instagram by 240%! Of course like all number games, people like to see growth. </p>
<p>Instagram released a bunch of stats on the 2016 year, and there is some exciting news for Cedar Fair park fans, as many of our favorite parks made the list of the most Instagrammed Places of 2016.</p>

<p>The real takeaway here is the power of you! The reason the Cedar Fair parks make these lists is because of you and your loyal dedication to sharing your experience across social media platforms. The parks can request all day that guests share their experience with special hashtags, etc., but it is really up to the user to take that experience and share it online.</p>
<p>This would probably be a good time to say if you do not follow us on Instagram, we would love if you would go over to our page and follow along on our <a href="https://www.instagram.com/CPFoodBlog/">CPFoodBlog Instagram</a> adventures. We share lots of exclusive photos on our Instagram site that are not shared across Facebook or Twitter. </p>
