# Can I create a LinkedIn company page, and how is it different from a personal profile?

## Answers

### Answer by Meet Patel

It is possible to create a [LinkedIn](https://www.mindstick.com/news/4730/linkedin-launches-new-verification-features-to-tackle-rising-job-scams-in-india) company page and this page is directed to businesses, organizations and institutions. The company page enables the updating, job advertisement, and creation of the community of followers. It is also unlike a personal profile that is made when dealing with individual professionals.

A company page is not the statement of an individual but an individual business. It emphasizes values of an organization, products and services. Social networks also complete the opposite of how personal profiles can produce their skills, experiences, and [education](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/337939/how-technology-is-elevating-home-education), rather than the image as a unified [organizing](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/310791/all-you-need-to-know-about-organizing-before-moving) presentation on company pages. It assists in [advertising](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/339364/is-prompt-to-video-ai-the-future-of-advertising-and-social-media-marketing) the brand and reaching more people.

Personal [networking](https://www.mindstick.com/startup/26/zerotier-secure-peer-to-peer-networking-made-simple) is carried out through personal accounts. They give the career path, talent and performance of the person. Personal profiles emphasize personal [development](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/359/iphone-development-introduction) and career work, whereas the company pages are devoted to a whole business. The two are [functional](https://www.mindstick.com/interview/655/explain-about-functional) but they perform varied functions in LinkedIn.

Another [difference](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/398/difference-between-object-type-and-var-type) is in the manner of interaction. The [subscribers](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/304161/enhance-your-audience-with-buy-youtube-subscribers) to a company page would get updates about business matters whereas under the personal profile would be those about the career of the individual that was shared. This differentiation will make sure that the contents are uploaded by the business and individuals in the appropriate places and to the correct audience.

## Conclusion

LinkedIn Company page is a company that will publicize its brand, update its shares, and recruit talent. Personal profiles are a one-on-one account of an individual displaying his competencies and [professional](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/167321/how-to-handle-business-logistics-professionally) advancement. There is a need to have both although each plays its own part with LinkedIn.
