In this “By the Numbers” statistic post, we take a gander at LinkedIn, the world’s largest professional network.
LinkedIn is one of the older social networks, surviving changes in technology, a tough demographic and a number of challengers along the way. They stand today as a public company; going stronger than ever with a firm grip on the business professional social network market.
Here are a bunch of interesting LinkedIn statistics that I was able to dig up. As with all of these stats post, I intend to update this semi-regularly, so be sure to bookmark it and come back periodically for updates.
This report is a digital collection of every LinkedIn statistic I have curated over the years as of the end of August 2016. Over 200 of them including stats for:
- Users
- Demographics
- Company pages
- Groups
- Advertising
- Jobs
- Mobile
- Revenue
- Etc.- all in one place
I try to go through each and every stat regularly and update as much as possible, but we all know that some stats are easier to track down than others. As always, every stat is linked to its original source and has the source date listed.
To get your copy of this stat report, click on the button below to purchase it. I will be updating it as close to quarterly as possible, so be sure to check back regularly for a new version.
Please note that some of these numbers are easier to find than others. A few of these stats come from LinkedIn’s own reports, but some are based on news reports and not official company tallies. Basically, this is the best I can find and I don’t guarantee anything to be 100% accurate.
