You only get one chance to make a favourable first impression. When it comes to your online presence, you rely heavily on your profile photo for this first impression, as people see the picture before they move on to read your profile. Research has shown that it takes less than 100 milli seconds for us to make up our minds based on seeing a person’s photograph.

​

A LinkedIn profile will typically get 14 more views, at first glance where a professionally taken headshot has been used. And 36 times more likely to receive a direct message (LinkedIn Research)

 

A recent survey on the importance of LinkedIn profile photographs came up with these statistics:

 

• 80% of respondents agreed that a candidate’s LinkedIn profile picture helps them get to know the person better

• 70% of respondents admitted that they had turned down a candidate because of their LinkedIn profile picture

• 96% of those surveyed believe that a professional LinkedIn profile picture inspires confidence

 

Your profile picture visually defines who you are and how you want to be seen by others. This applies not only to your profile photo on LinkedIn but on other social media platforms, and the photos that you use on your business website.
