LinkedIn a Great Tool to Drive Traffic to Your Website
A good article by Steve Rayson of socialmedia today talks about a study by Investis IQ that tracked the percentage of visitors to corporate websites from social media platforms.
The Audience Insight report found that LinkedIn drives a significantly high number (64%) of corporate website visitors compared to other social media tools like Twitter, Facebook, and others.
Although Facebook came in at 17%, it is down from 30% two years ago and Twitter is gaining influence, up from 4% in 2011 to 14% today.
