20 Years on LinkedIn
I was fortunate to join LinkedIn on 21 December 2003 and I received a notification from LinkedIn to remind me about it!
When I clicked on this notification, I saw the following on my screen
And then they ‘pre-prepared’ some content for me…
Of course, me being me, I had a little fiddle with it and produced the following post – and I would again like to reiterate, thank you everyone for being a part of my journey on LinkedIn!
🎉 Celebrating 20 years on LinkedIn! 🎉
Yes, on 20 December 2003, I joined LinkedIn as member number 77,832!
If you want to find out your LinkedIn member number, go to your Settings Page, right click on your mouse (using laptop or desktop computer) and choose ‘View Page Source’ then from your browser, choose ‘Find on Page’ and look for the word ‘member’ and next to it, you will find your LinkedIn Member number!
📈In the last year, my content has received 215,316 views!
I hope that most of you found the content helpful!
I now have a total of 24,556 Connections🤝and 27,953 Followers 👍
The cool part is that LinkedIn Follower Numbers now appear in Google search results!
Thank you for being a part of my journey and here’s to the next 20 years on LinkedIn!
