Even i am looking for Follow option on external website. Do let me know if you come across. Thanx

I'm looking for the same. Did you find anything?

Hi guys,
We don't currently have a follow company button. We've been thinking about building one for a while -- stay tuned!

Best,
Jon

Do we have an ETA? It seems like I've seen it before. Can't believe you don't have a source code for it.

Just expressing my vote for this as well.

Would be great to have one...

I have seen on other websites, the "Follow ABC Company" for example.

let me know when it's available

You can add a company profile inline or popup box to your site that works pretty well...
https://developer.linkedin.com/plugins/company-profile-plugin

Or there's a simple button available here...

Yes. Please get a "Follow" button.

Your requests have been heard and forwarded on to the product management team.

Thanks!

I just added a plugin that is very similar to a follow. It is just a "in" button that when clicked, your company profile pops up and the follow button comes up. Close enough... for now.

A simple button to press and you're then following a company - that would be great!!

So far the best solution is the company profile (https://developer.linkedin.com/plugins/company-profile-plugin)
Unfortunatelly this is not scalable and it has this border around. The best soulution I found to get rid of these borders is to just hover them by masking-white-background-divs

Any news on this yet? My boss is on my case and won't believe me that this doesn't exist yet.

Hi All,

This is something definitely on the product roadmap, but does not exist yet at this time. We appreciate your patience.

Thanks!

I was surprised to find out LinkedIn didn't have a 'Follow Company' button for external use! Come on LinkedIn!! Please let me know once you have released one?

and here's my vote for the follow company button.... ho hum will use silly jpeg and link to company page

can you show this code to me, i cant see the follow option that you mention.. i can do it so that it will open the full company page where the follow button is available, but i dont know how to do it so that it only opens a follow option

please let us know when Linkedin follow button is going to arrive.........

I think it's this:

https://developer.linkedin.com/plugins/follow-company

but it doesn't works

Yes! We need this for our company page. Does this work? https://developer.linkedin.com/plugins/follow-company
I can see the code but not the preview so makes me wonder. Thanks!

no, it doesn't works

Typical LinkedIn. They Only care about things that generate direct revenue. The vision thing is just a fairytale. I lost faith in them long time ago.

Hey Folks:
We have heard your concerns. We understand why people really want to see this plugin. At the same time we want to make sure we deliver quality products.
Thanks
Steve

I've heard a rumor it's coming... for everyone by Petros. :) jk

overdue!
Clients need this!

Agree, they need to make it easy for linkedin users to LINK IN. A button where perhaps all they do is sign in to their linkedin account. Any more steps than that and users simply will not have the patience to follow through except in rare cases.

As mentioned previously, your comments are definitely heard. I apologize we can't comment further at this time.

-Jeremy

Any further updates on this? It's something I'd really like to see so I can add it to our website and our e-mail signatures.

Hi Will,

Nothing yet... My apologies!
