Onside PR founder James Fletcher received an unexpected accolade last night – learning he was one of the most viewed profiles on LinkedIn for 2012!
The social media networking site for ‘people in professional occupations’ has more than 200 million registered users in more than 200 countries across the world.
And they insist that Onside PR founder James Fletcher is “one of the top 10% most viewed profiles on LinkedIn” for 2012.
Quite what that means remains to be seen…..but we will take it! And who are we to disagree!
Fletcher said: “I guess it’s an honour…..though please don’t bombard me with emails saying you too were listed in the top 10%!
“Seriously, LinkedIn is a terrific tool for people within business, it provide an opportunity for those that need too to speak directly to the people that matter without having to jump through hoops.
“I like it’s simplicity, if the person you want to speak doesn’t want to speak to you they won’t, it’s simple. It cuts through the fluff and nonsense!
“It is also brilliant for establishing genuine credibility. The number of people who claim to know x or y when really they don’t? A service like LinkedIn acts as the ultimate testimonial site.”
Linked in is available in English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, Dutch, Swedish, Romanian, Russian, Turkish, Japanese, Czech, Polish, Korean, Indonesian, and Malay.
It has been reported LinkedIn has 21.4 million monthly unique U.S. visitors and 47.6 million globally and an incredible two new members join every second.
But before Onside PR founder James Fletcher gets too carried away with being one of the top 10% – which actually is one of quite a lot of people – he has some way to go to catch LinkedIn’s number one profile. Barack Obama had 526,270 views…….lucky man whoever he is!!
