How does this work?

  • Our updated Social Performance Analytics introduces aggregated reporting, which helps you understand your brand's performance across different channels.

  • To see LinkedIn personal and business analytic insights, click on the appropriate LinkedIn button on the left.

  • This will narrow down the data to all LinkedIn personal profiles and LinkedIn company pages in all locations where you participate.

  • The maximum look-back period is 2 years. Therefore, you can't export analytics for a period older than 2 years.

  • Before exploring the numbers, click on the top right to select the time period you'd like to analyze.
