Week Impressions Views Search Engagement Followers Posts/Wk Completeness Score Tier
Week 1 4,800 310 120 95 1,200 2.0 78% 48.6 Moderate
Week 2 6,200 520 210 180 1,280 3.0 86% 63.9 Strong

Engagement = likes + comments + shares for the week.

Formula used

The calculator converts raw activity into normalized scores and combines them with weights.

  • Profile View Rate (%) = (Profile Views ÷ Impressions) × 100
  • Engagement Rate (%) = ((Likes + Comments + Shares) ÷ Impressions) × 100, capped at 20%
  • Engagement Score = Engagement Rate × 5 (0–100 scaling)
  • Search-to-View Rate (%) = (Search Appearances ÷ Profile Views) × 100
  • Network Strength = log10(1 + Followers + Connections) × 20 (capped at 100)
  • Posting Consistency = (Posts per Week ÷ 7) × 100 (capped at 100)

Base Score (0–100):

Score = 0.30·ViewRate + 0.20·EngScore + 0.15·SearchView + 0.15·Network + 0.10·Completeness + 0.10·Consistency

Finally, the score is adjusted by keyword relevance using a gentle multiplier: Score × (0.85 + 0.15·KeywordRelevance).

Career visibility insights

Reach signals

Impressions show how often your presence appears in feeds, search, and recommendations. Because impressions alone can be inflated by broad audiences, the score pairs them with profile views to measure true interest. A healthy view rate usually rises when your headline states a clear role target, your banner supports that focus, and your featured section contains proof such as projects, outcomes, and links.

Conversion to views

Profile views are the gateway to recruiter actions: saves, connection requests, and interview outreach. Track weekly view rate, not just totals, to isolate whether distribution or messaging needs work. If your impressions rise but view rate falls, tighten keywords, reduce jargon, and lead with measurable impact. If both are flat, increase consistent posting and comment on relevant industry threads.

Engagement quality

Likes, comments, and shares indicate that your content resonates enough to earn interaction. The calculator caps engagement rate to prevent viral spikes from distorting your baseline. Strong engagement comes from specificity: role-aligned topics, concise takeaways, and a clear prompt for response. Aim for steady signals by sharing learnings, mini case studies, and practical templates that peers can reuse.

Search momentum

Search appearances reflect how well your profile matches what employers type. Improve this metric by aligning your headline, about section, and experience bullets with target titles, tools, and outcomes. Use consistent phrases across sections, but avoid stuffing. When search appearances grow faster than views, your keywords are working, yet your positioning may be unclear; refine the first two lines of your about summary.

Network and consistency

Network strength is scaled so growth matters even for smaller accounts. Add connections in your niche, follow hiring managers, and engage with peers to build compounding visibility. Posting consistency is intentionally simple: frequent, high-quality updates tend to lift both impressions and views over time. Review your score monthly, export results, and set one improvement goal per component to keep progress measurable. In practical terms, scores above 75 often correlate with stronger inbound interest, while scores below 35 suggest missing basics like completeness and cadence. Use the component KPIs to choose the next experiment, then reassess after two weeks for change.

FAQs

What time window should I use?
Use a consistent window, such as the last 7 days. Consistency makes trends meaningful and reduces noise from one-off spikes or quiet periods.
What is a good Profile Reach Score?
As a rough guide, 35–54 is moderate, 55–74 is strong, and 75+ is excellent. Compare your score against your own past exports to confirm improvement.
Why cap engagement rate in the score?
Capping limits distortion from rare viral posts. It keeps the score focused on repeatable performance and helps you judge whether your profile and content are improving steadily.
How do I improve search appearances?
Align your headline, about, and role bullets with target titles, skills, tools, and outcomes. Use the same wording recruiters use, and keep it readable and specific.
Does a bigger network always win?
No. Network impact is log-scaled so growth matters without dominating. Smaller profiles can score well by improving view rate, engagement quality, completeness, and posting consistency.
How often should I export results?
Export weekly when you are actively optimizing, then monthly once stable. Use exports to set one measurable goal, run a single change, and check the next period’s component KPIs.
