LinkedIn’s Content Marketing Score is worked out by a brand’s engagement scores divided by its audience.
Olivier Legrand, head of marketing solutions, for LinkedIn Asia Pacific and Japan, said: “While most brands understand that content is becoming the lifeblood of modern marketing, many are just starting out in the quest to successfully leverage content to boost engagement with audiences. As everyone is inundated with information, brands that cut through the clutter are those that provide quality and tailored content. To be taken seriously, content must provide utility and these brands are doing just that.”
In a global analysis of its content marketing data, LinkedIn has found that:
- 99 per cent of the top global brands have employees sharing their content with their networks
- 97 per cent of the top global brands have employee posts contributing to their content efforts
- 99 per cent of top brands regularly share updates on their LinkedIn Company Page
- 73 per cent of top brands are using Sponsored Updates
- All of these top brands post an average of 12.6 updates per week
it may include SME’s but their calculation Robin surely is biased towards MNC’s? “worked out by a brand’s engagement scores divided by its audience”. So if you have a million people following you need less engagement to get a giant score…..so if an SME’s page has lots of engagement but is shared by a smaller then they have a more engaging page but don’t feature in the top the, doesn’t make sense….
