COPENHAGEN: Danish online shopping is growing as around 1.6 million Danes have a profile on the business-orientated social network LinkedIn, disclosed on Wednesday at a workshop during Social Media Week.
It was a rare admission from a company that does not normally reveal user numbers by country. Mikkel Preisler, the company’s senior account executive, explained that the policy is in place to protect LinkedIn’s performance on the US stock market.
LinkedIn announced that at the beginning of this year more than 330 million people had a profile on the network worldwide. In Denmark, it is the tenth most visited website. However, the company did not share any exact figures, and so it is not possible to ascertain how many users have already abandoned their profiles or not updated them for years.
