LinkedIn Stats, LinkedIn Growth, EOY Predictions
March 30th, 2010 | by Jason Alba |Ever wonder how big LinkedIn is RIGHT NOW? I just got an email (that I suspect might be slightly outdated) that said:
Over 63 million members. Our membership is growing. Target the 100,000 new professionals that join each week.
So they are 63M this week.
They grow at 100,000 each week.
There are 39 weeks left this year… that means 3,900,000 new signups through the rest of this year… which means LinkedIn should end the year with 66,900,000 signups.
I’m guessing that is low and will predict it’s over 75M.
(what do these numbers mean? Read Fake Metrics for one perspective)
