In June 2013, I’ve done 2 infographics: Linkedin Montréal and Linkedin Québec. Then I did Linkedin Paris in October 2013. The next obvious one was Linkedin Canada. I was hoping that the total number of registered members worldwide would reached 300 million at the end of 2013. This will be in a couple of days. Same thing for the 10 millions in Canada.
Update: Linkedin has revealed the latest official numbers in his Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2013 Earnings Conference Call (Feb 6, 2014). There was:
- 277M members on December 13th 2013
- 187M monthly unique visitors (including SlideShare)
- >2 New members every second
I believe that Linkedin cleaned the data before they do their internal estimates. Using their numbers (from each quarter since 2011), the official-extrapolated number would be 282M at the end of January 2014.
Top 3 industries in Canada
- Finance (8%)
- Manufacuring (7.6%)
- High Tech (6.0%)
Note:
- Linkedin Corporation consider that Winipeg is part of Quebec. The number of members might be a little bit off for Quebec and Manitoba.
