How Followers and Following data is calculated

Created by Danny Chu, Modified on Tue, 26 Jul, 2022 at 2:39 PM by Danny Chu

"Followers & following variation data are tracked from/since the creation of your inlytics account"

We will provide you the total number of following and follower data in the numerical data tracker (see screenshot above); however, the graph that shows the growth of your follower/following data will only be from the start of your inlytics account. 


The difference in how the data is tracked is a result of LinkedIn not having a timestamp associated with follower/following, and inlytics is pulling the data every 6 hours and we simply use that interval as a way to timestamp the growth of the metric in the graph.
