\"LinkedIn

LinkedIn traffic source devices<\/p><\/div>\n

The use of desktops makes sense since LinkedIn is primarily used by professionals during weekdays when they are active on their work computers or laptops.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Unlike other platforms that are mainly used for entertainment and thus accessed more through mobile devices, LinkedIn users engage with the platform for business-related purposes, which are more easily done on a desktop.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

LinkedIn has seen tremendous growth since its launch in 2003. Let's look at some interesting statistics related to LinkedIn's revenue and growth over the years.<\/span><\/p>\n

LinkedIn introduced premium subscriptions in 2005, allowing users to access additional features, such as private browsing, applicant insights, direct messaging, and unlimited access to LinkedIn Learning. In 2024, the company saw a revenue of<\/span> <\/span>$1.7 billion<\/span><\/a> from its Premium subscription, with a 25% year-over-year increase.<\/span><\/p>\n

17. LinkedIn Reported a Revenue of $15.74 Billion<\/strong><\/h3>\n

LinkedIn generated over $15 billion in revenue in 2023, according to the<\/span> Social Report<\/span><\/a>.

The company's growth can be attributed to its continuous efforts to improve and expand its features.<\/span><\/p>\n

18. LinkedIn Saw an 8% Increase in Revenue<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\n

LinkedIn Engagement Statistics<\/strong><\/h2>\n

20. Most LinkedIn Visitors Engagement With a Page Every Week<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Organic engagements on LinkedIn posts are higher compared to other social media platforms. On average,<\/span> 40% of LinkedIn's active users<\/span><\/a> engage with a LinkedIn page every week. They may do so by liking, sharing, commenting, or clicking on the content posted on that page. Use our guide on <\/span>LinkedIn hooks<\/span><\/a> to benefit from this trend.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

21. LinkedIn Users Are Most Active During Weekdays<\/strong><\/h3>\n

According to Buffer<\/span><\/a>, the<\/span> best time to post on LinkedIn<\/span><\/a> is between 9 AM and 5 PM on weekdays. That makes sense, considering most LinkedIn users are professionals who are working during the day. Posting during these times can ensure that your content reaches a larger audience and receives more engagement. The research also found that engagement picks up during lunch breaks, mid-morning, and late afternoon when people are taking a break from work.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tuesdays and Wednesdays tend to be the busiest days for most professionals, and this could explain why engagement is higher on these days. It's best to post between 10 AM and noon.<\/span><\/p>\n

On Thursdays, engagement is the highest at 10 AM.<\/span><\/p>\n

24. Linked Is Used by More Than 67 Million Companies<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The company's official statistics report that there are more than<\/span> 67 million companies<\/span> listed on the platform. <\/span>According to LinkedIn, however, some of these company profiles result from LinkedIn automatically creating company pages. They do this when a member adds an organization that is not on LinkedIn as part of their experience on their profile.<\/span><\/p>\n

25. More Post Likes Lead to More Engagement<\/strong><\/h3>\n

OkDork found a correlation<\/span><\/a> between the number of likes and other LinkedIn metrics. According to the correlation data, more likes equals more views, shares, and comments.<\/span><\/p>\n

To help you gain more likes, they suggest that you add a call to action at the beginning or end of your post and promote it on other social networks. If you're planning to share it on other platforms, they suggest that you start with Twitter. According to their data, tweets have the highest correlation to LinkedIn success metrics.<\/span><\/p>\n

26. Live Video Sees a Ton of Engagement<\/strong><\/h3>\n

It\u2019s not just regular in-feed videos that perform well on LinkedIn. Although video gets five times more engagement, according to the <\/span>company\u2019s own data<\/span><\/a>, live video gets even more.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

You can expect to see a whopping 24 times more engagement than a regular post when you share a live broadcast on LinkedIn. So don\u2019t hold back on those interviews and Q&A sessions as they give you the opportunity to drive real-time engagement.<\/span><\/p>\n

27. Posting Every Week Boosts Engagement<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Organizations that post weekly on LinkedIn can generate twice the lift in engagement, according to<\/span> stats shared by LinkedIn<\/span><\/a>. What's more, adding to what OkDork found, their data suggest that images generally result in twice the comment rate.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can, for example, create a custom collage with a few images. Reshare posts when others mention your organization on the platform to drive more engagement. You should also use hashtags to reach a wider audience. <\/span>Businesses can also get their employees to share content on the platform. We have a guide on<\/span> employees sharing content on LinkedIn<\/span><\/a> from which you can take inspiration.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

28. PDFs and PowerPoints Can Also Be Effective<\/strong><\/h3>\n

If videos or articles aren\u2019t your thing, LinkedIn suggests that you can try uploading a PowerPoint or PDF. They\u2019ve found that their members enjoy <\/span>behind-the-scenes content<\/span><\/a> that focuses on a brand\u2019s unique values and culture. Another suggestion is to create a PowerPoint that places the spotlight on an employee.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
