LinkedIn gets serious about video with Vimeo integration

Professional social networking platform LinkedIn is finally bringing professional tools to video — on Monday, October 29, Vimeo announced integration with LinkedIn. The launch is LinkedIn’s first end-to-end integration with any video platform, going beyond LinkedIn’s basic copy-paste URLs for video sharing and mobile app video tools.

With the integration, LinkedIn gains native uploads through Vimeo, which both companies say can increase reach and engagement when posting videos to the professional network. While LinkedIn already allowed users to add a video by posting a video link to places like profiles and timelines, the change brings several tools that were previously missing from video uploads. Vimeo users can now push videos to LinkedIn from the Vimeo platform in one click, using the Publish to Social feature that can also simultaneously send the video to other networks and company websites.
