Yes, LinkedIn does tell you who viewed your profile, but the amount of information you receive depends on both your account type and the privacy settings of the viewers.
- For free LinkedIn users: You can see the number of people who viewed your profile in the last 90 days and the names and headlines of the last 5 viewers, provided those viewers have not chosen to be anonymous
- For LinkedIn Premium users: You get enhanced insights, including detailed information about viewers such as their names, job titles, industries, locations, and companies. Premium users can see profile viewers from up to 90 days or even a year, and can filter viewers by criteria like company or location. However, even Premium users cannot see details of viewers who have enabled Private Mode
- Privacy settings of viewers: If a viewer uses Private Mode, their visit will appear as "Anonymous LinkedIn Member," and you will not see any identifying information about them. There is also a semi-private mode where partial details like job title or industry may be shown instead of full names
- Notifications: LinkedIn notifies users when someone views their profile unless the viewer is in Private Mode. Notifications can appear on LinkedIn and via email
You can also control your own visibility when viewing others' profiles by adjusting your profile viewing options in Settings & Privacy
. In summary, LinkedIn does show you who viewed your profile, with more detailed information available to Premium users and depending on the privacy choices of the viewers. Private Mode viewers remain anonymous.
