E-commerce diffusion brings a great opportunity for the competitiveness of firms. The use of social networks offers a new platform for the development of online business transactions. The objective of this paper is analyzing the relationship between the e-commerce adoption level and the social networks value among firms. To achieve this goal, a sample of 100 Micro, Small and Medium firms from the city of Cordoba in Argentina is employed. Based on a k media conglomerates analysis, we obtained there groups of firms: firms advanced in e-commerce, firms just in social networks, and firms oriented to e-commerce. These groups differ in terms of their main economic activity but not in the size of their firms.
