How to show your LinkedIn follower count on your website

Show your LinkedIn followers and connections on a media kit, speaker page or About page, read from your own profile, with Bokka's network stats widget.

To show your LinkedIn follower count on your website, embed a widget that reads it from your own profile. In Bokka, make a network stats widget, choose which totals it shows, publish it and paste its code into your page.

A follower count widget is a small card showing how many people follow you on LinkedIn. Bokka is an AI-first CRM for your LinkedIn inbox; it reads your own totals when you ask it to, from your browser.

Followers or connections?

On LinkedIn, your 1st-degree connections follow your posts automatically, and anyone can follow you even if they aren't in your network (Manage who can follow your updates, retrieved 27 October 2026). So followers are usually the larger number and the one to show an audience. If you limit followers to your connections, the two numbers are the same.

How to add it with Bokka

1. In Bokka, choose Widgets, then New widget, then Network stats.
2. On Customize, choose what it shows: followers, connections, following, your headline and a Follow button.
3. Press Refresh from LinkedIn to read today's totals, with the extension on.
4. Choose Publish, then copy its code from Integration and paste it into your page.

Where to use it

• A media kit, next to your rates and past partners.
• A speaker page, where organisers check your reach.
• A sponsorship or partnership page.
• A creator's or consultant's About page.

To show how fast your audience is growing rather than its size, use the Growth widget instead.

Which number to show

For example, with sample numbers: a designer with 6,210 followers and 1,840 connections shows followers on a sponsorship page, because about 4,370 of those followers aren't connections and still see the posts. On a page selling one-to-one work, connections tell the better story: 1,840 people who know them.

How the numbers stay accurate

Bokka never connects to LinkedIn from its servers. A widget shows your own profile and totals as your browser last read them, and says when that was. To update it, press Refresh from LinkedIn in the editor, with the Bokka extension on. Nothing about your visitors is stored: Bokka counts views and clicks per day, and that's all.

Widgets come with every Bokka plan: one of each kind on the free trial and on Starter, five of each on Pro, and 20 per member on Team. A small "Powered by Bokka" line sits under each widget; on Pro and Team you can turn it off. Widgets you publish on the trial keep showing after it ends.
