Linkedin, one of the best scrubbing filters for gauging quality of people, has decided to begin using its big data to promote ads on other sites. Amazing news for advertisers :) LinkedIn's valuable profile data is a huge asset for targeting purposes. Smaller advertisers are able to target as few as one thousand people. CNN and Weather.com are a few of the bigger advertisers testing out this new method. LNKD is following Twitters and Facebook's footsteps, but everyone knew this was coming. At Retirely, we use Linkedin for virtually everything and recommend to all other financial advertisers to at least use them as a filter.
