LinkedIn is a social networking tool designed to help people and businesses share their connections, experiences, resumes, and more.
Similar to other social networking tools, with LinkedIn you are able to set up your own personal profile, however, you would use your profile to share your professional experiences.
LinkedIn has also developed what is known as Pages to aallow companies to share information on new job openings, accomplishments, company culture, and more. Each business page includes an Analytics section, which can be used by brands and agencies to help understand how their audience is engaging with their content. Data from LinkedIn Analytics can be visualized in a number of single integration and blended templates on Oviond.
