In recent weeks, a new feature has appeared on LinkedIn profiles: a horizontal bar, under the summary and called “your dashboard”. In case there was any doubt, LinkedIn specifies “Private for you”. This bar is found both on PC and on the mobile app. The dashboard offers 4 pieces of information: The expert “level” Who viewed the profile The number of views of the last post The number of appearances in search results The expert level, it's the blue bubble that we had on our profiles before the interface change. Basically, it hasn't changed anything, this information although it flatters the ego of some, has no value and is of no use.
This just means that we have completed the sections of the profile that LinkedIn needs for the Email Data advertising targeting offered to marketers, the commercial targeting of Sales Navigator and the sourcing of research managers. The number of profile views may be of interest, but it is quite limited. As a reminder, in free mode we know who the last 5 people were on the profile and with a subscription (premium mode) we have the same information but over 90 days, regardless of the number of visits. Free or paid, we know how many people have come over the past 90 days. Second reminder: if someone is anonymous when they visit a profile, they remain anonymous.
The paid mode does not remove the anonymity of visitors. The number of views of the last post appears If we did not publish a post, LinkedIn logically indicates 0. The box could not have appeared in this case. But maybe it's a way to encourage people to post: by seeing 0 on their profile we can start posting. Note that LinkedIn only indicates the views of the last post and not the views of the last article. As @bruno Fridlansky recently indicated in a video on his profile the number of views means nothing and has no so no sense. Indeed, LinkedIn remains very vague on what a view is. 1,000 views just means that a post appeared on 1,000 screens. But it's unclear how many people actually read or even saw the post.
