The end of the year is all about the best of the year, and these are the 10 best brands on social media in 2013.

One of the best things about the end of the year is that the web is populated with endless “Best Of” lists to commemorate the year we have experienced. 2013 is no different. And thanks to Starcount, we have a great infographic telling us about the best brands in 2013 and how they pushed boundaries and made their mark.

Every brand on this list is recognizable, and understandably so. As icons in social business, these companies have leveraged social media in the past year to expand their reach into new markets – both domestic and foreign.

Have a look, see which brands you think did the best job on social media in 2013, and have a very happy New Year!
