LinkedIn is driving traffic and engagement for publishers across the web
Mike Rodov,
Director of BD
Seeking Alpha
MG Siegler
TechCrunch
“LinkedIn users have very high page views per visit compared to our other distribution partners”
“Yes, LinkedIn, the professional social network .. is now by far our 2nd biggest referrer of social traffic.”
Bruce Upbin - Managing Director, Forbes. "LinkedIn, man. Big wet smack to you. You are a traffic driver par excellence"
Andrew Lipsman, VP Industry Analytics, ComScore “the trend you’re honing in on, and that I see, too, is a lot more ‘insharing’ going on now, which I think has to do with LinkedIn’s effort to turn its network into less of a utility and more of a content site.”
![Page 18: LinkedIn_publisheroffering_full_august2012](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081403/554bd5aab4c9058f6c8b507e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
LinkedIn is driving traffic and engagement for publishers
“Traffic from LinkedIn to BBC News jumps tenfold in six months.”
“Average monthly referrals from LinkedIn have quadrupled in the third quarter, compared to the first quarter of 2011.”
Sarah Marshall
Journalism.co.uk July 15, 2011
Raju Narisetti,
Former Managng Editor
Washington Post
“Since the launch of LinkedIn Today, Mashable has seen growth in both visitors and engagement from the LinkedIn community."
“CNET has seen extraordinary increases in LinkedIn traffic -- up to a tenfold increase! And these users visit our site more frequently than our site avg."
Meghan Peters,
Community Manager

LinkedIn Share drives high clicks back to publishers
“For every article a user "shares" with her network, LinkedIn drives an average of 1.5 clicks back to the publisher. "That is better than the average across all of our networks, of about 1.1 clicks, and is about as effective as Twitter,“ Greg Cypes – Director of Product, AddThis
“Linkedin Share is disproportionately powerful given the size of the network because "people care much more about what they're sharing [on Linkedin]," Cypes says. You can share all kinds of random nonsense on Facebook and Twitter -- and no one cares, or remembers. On Linkedin, however, your future bosses and employees are watching. People think before they share”

Roughly speaking LinkedIn shares generate 4 – 5 X more traffic to my Inc.com articles than tweets, Facebook likes, and Google +1s combined.
