Linkedin Statistics

I thought I would share this with you, because each week I get notified, about my various social media accounts, well the business related ones anyway as that is where I focus my activities

Today I got an email from Linkedin giving me my last 90 days worth of activity

As a regular follower, you might know, that I like Linkedin and have been there since Reid Hoffman set it up way back in 2002, primarily to connect his close circle of business buddies ( I wasn't one of them!! ) but joined shortly after this.

Linkedin, is primarily a business social network, which to give a brief potted history, launched its own very successful IPO 2 years before Facebook and is valued now at around the type of figures, though you won't hear much about that... Thats not how they work!!

Anyway, it is considered the Blue Chip Business Social Network, where a properly set up and maximised profile can lead to you getting connections from all walks of life, right the way up to CEO's of Blue Chip Companies

You can with a properly set up profile, get job offers, recruit people and do a whole host of things business related... Mainly because people expect to do business there

Networking there is pretty simple, and if you don't have time to do proper networking, as I don't, because I am focused on YouTube as my main marketing channel, then simply checking your notifications and sending a brief message can still do wonders for you, which is the reason for this blog post

Because, during the last 90 days, that is pretty much all I have done, simply check notifications and respond to one or two offers that have come my way

Now doing this, has done the following to my profile

As you can see from the picture above.

195 Profile views, which is a 60% Increase on the previous period.

I consider that not to shabby, what I tend to do with my Linkedin Connections is to get them onto my list, so they get to here about my 'special' offers and such like

Most do quite happily

Those that communuicate through email to me ( and you can do this as well) I always look at their profiles and then make recommendations to them & so far touch wood, it has worked very nicely for what, 17 years near enough : )

S if you are a newbie to this brilliant Wealthy Affiliate platform. I'd strongly consider at least getting a profile there.

Currently I have in excess of 5,000 connections, the vast majority of which now approach me

I can't remember the last time I invited someone to connect!!

Thats not to be braggish or boastful, but to show the power of attraction and a properly set up business profile

Anyway, I thought I would share it with you, because

Well done Elaine

Good to know. I have a linkedin acct but never used it. I will pull it up now because of your information. Thanks

Your welcome thanks for commenting

I have over 25,000 followers.

Wow you can do some damage with those

Great information - very useful! Thanks so much for sharing!

Thanks for commenting

It certainly has evolved since it's inception hasn't it? If I recall, it was originally just a networking site for startups, for the most part. Now I think they even offer classes.
One of the members sent me this story way back then:

Hell is a room full of people sitting around a big round table with a big pot of stew in the middle. The people were all starving because they had really short arms and really long handled spoons. They could reach the stew, but not their own mouths.

Heaven was the exact same circumstances, but the scenario was quite the opposite. Instead of trying to feed themselves, an exercise in futility, they fed each other.

Great news, Dave.
May I follow you in Linkedin? I have a profile but not about WA business which I have to add.

Thanks for commenting and feel free to follow, my linkedin profile is on my profile here at WA

Thanks Dave.....I joined LinkedIn months ago and always share my new posts there but really haven't pursued it beyond that, but I'm going to take your advise and try to start connecting more.

Terry its certainly worthwhile tjhanks for commenting

Hi Dave.
I am still learning about LinkedIn and haven't really used it to it's full potential. I get a lot of people approaching me about giving me their various ebooks or reports about networking on it, but so far I have just been focusing on getting back to my site to write some articles. It is lacking a bit at the moment. I hope to be able to do more with my social media in the near future. I will keep what you say in mind and do more on LinkedIn when I do.
Thank you
Ange
