LinkedIn at the panels: the network with real names

LinkedIn is thinly stocked in the catalogues: 711 orderable entries across 13 service tiers from 23 catalogues. That is no coincidence — the platform is more expensive to supply than any other here, because a credible account needs a name, an employer and a history.

That is exactly where the risk comes from that sets this segment apart from all others. On LinkedIn, every reaction sits beside a real name with position and company, and the readers are colleagues, customers and applicants. What passes as a number on other platforms here is a list of people anyone can look through.

For the comparison this means: the price is the least interesting figure. More important are minimum order and daily pace, because a handful of reactions arriving every minute on a company post stands out far more than a large number on a video platform.

One figure still belongs to the picture, because it comes from the fields and not from the titles: the number of offers in this network where the panel reports a refill through its own interface is 63. We mean the self-triggerable variant; what the offer name states is a promise, not a field. On a network where every reaction carries a real name, a silent refill is incidentally no good news — it brings new names onto the same post.

The lowest priced base price in this network is 0.15 € per thousand units, while the middle of the range sits at 29.21 €. The lower value is currently held by Cloutsy — this is a property of a single catalogue and not a market situation, and at the next pull it may sit with another provider. Both are wholesale purchase prices, not what a German-speaking sales page charges for them.

Followers on the profile or company page are listed under Followers.

On the individual post sit Likes, Comments and Post Shares. The last name follows the catalogues themselves, which label almost every line that way; the German search for shares would otherwise land in stock trading.

Comments are the most sensitive goods here: they are read, they carry a name, and a sentence without reference to the post does more damage than the purchased number of visibility is worth.

Which providers stand behind these lines is shown in the panel comparison.

Between two pulls the catalogue does not stand still. Since 31/10/2026, 33 entries in this scope have a different base price than before, of which 0 upward and 33 downward; 0 rows have been newly added and 0 have disappeared from the catalogues. The stated point in time is the oldest of these earlier pulls, so the row does not claim a freshness that its slowest component lacks.

Only panels that have a second pull at all are compared; their number is 23 and is not the number of indexed panels, because a newly added provider has no past yet. As long as this second pull is missing, nothing appears here — a zero would mean "nothing has moved", and that is a measurement, not a gap.

Two details appear in no panel interface and are therefore maintained by hand from the panels' own statements: whether a provider issues a proper invoice and which payment methods it accepts. The number of providers with an invoice in this scope is 2. Since 30/08/2026, none of these details has gone unchecked here — the oldest check is shown rather than the newest, because a date based on the last check would conceal the providers that nobody has looked at for longer. The number of providers with no check at all is currently 0.

Where entries from different providers within a tier match one another down to the quantity limits, we present them as a group and mark the more expensive rows with a note that they probably sell the same source — not all of them, because where the price gap can only be a counting error, the note is omitted. The number of groups touching this segment is 87, the number of marked rows is 116. The word "probably" matters: no panel writes into its interface whom it buys from, and two identically cut rows are a hint, not proof. Also counted is what touches this segment — the groups do not split the stock. How this is measured is set out in the panel comparison.
