The figures under [How its links behaved](https://mxverify.uk/publications/linkedin.com#links) come from those checks, not from estimates, and each new audit adds to them. The tick marks audited links. It is not an endorsement of linkedin.com, or a check of who runs it. [Have links placed on a site?

How BV is worked out Site Strength 95 / 100 · level C · each factor and link type A followed editorial link from linkedin.com would be worth up to $1,829 under BV 2.8, before relevance: its Site Strength is 95 out of 100. The link it usually gives is a listing, profile or user post (level C), since linkedin.com is a social network — worth about $183 — and relevance to the site it points to moves that between $91 and $229. - **Site Strength**: **95** / 100, in steps of 5 · half the site's authority rating, half its organic traffic on a log scale; 100 is the strongest site on the web. Traffic: 1.5B estimated monthly organic visits, as of 4 October 2026. - **Worth up to**: $1,829 · a followed editorial link at this strength, before relevance (×0.5 unrelated to ×1.25 same topic) — see [how it is calculated](https://mxverify.uk/backlink-value#how) - **Usual link type**: Level C — usually neutralised → ×0.1 linkedin.com is a social network, not a publication: nobody buys or earns an article on it, so the links a site can get there are listings, profiles or user posts — level C. The table below lists the links it can give, and what each is worth. - **Relevance to your site**: ×1 · neutral here; in an audit it runs from ×0.5 (unrelated) to ×1.25 (same topic) - **BV score**: **$183** per link - **Domain registered**: 2 November 2002 · shown for context; BV does not price on age, but a domain registered in the last 30 days is never priced as not in Google ### A link from linkedin.com, by the kind of link it can give linkedin.com is a social network, not a publication, so the links it gives are not articles. These are the ones it can give, on the same A–D scale, at its strength. | Link | What it is | Level | Value | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Featured by the network | The network's own newsroom, blog or editorial account links to you — rare. | A · ×1 | $1,829 | | Profile or company-page link | The website field on a profile or company page. | C · ×0.1 | $183 | | Link in a post or comment | A link someone shares — marked nofollow or ugc on nearly every network. | C · ×0.1 | $183 | | Paid promotion | Not a backlink: sponsored, and passes no link equity. | Not a backlink | $0 | Server and network 0 other publications on the server · 10 on the network No other publication in the directory runs on 130.211.32.14. 10 publications are on the same hosting network (Google Cloud, AS396982) — a cloud platform hosting millions of unrelated sites, so that is no sign of a connection. Google Cloud is a cloud platform hosting millions of unrelated sites, so sharing it says nothing about who runs a site. The count is shown; the sites are not listed.

It is not a price, and it does not predict what a link will do for a particular site: relevance to that site moves it between half and one and a quarter times. - Traffic figures come from a third-party traffic source, named with its date in the evidence box above; no one outside a site sees its analytics.
