Use this interactive demo to learn how to allow others to tag and mention you on LinkedIn.

Quick summary

Enabling tagging on LinkedIn lets other users mention you in posts and comments, increasing your profile's visibility and reach. This setting is controlled through LinkedIn's Visibility settings under Settings & Privacy.


Steps

  1. Click your profile icon on the top menu of your LinkedIn dashboard.
  2. Select 'Settings & Privacy' from the dropdown menu.
  3. Under Visibility settings, navigate to 'Visibility of your LinkedIn activity' and select 'Mentioned by others'.
  4. Enable mentions and tags by others by switching the toggle to the ON position.

📌 Why this matters

Controlling who can tag or mention you on LinkedIn directly impacts your professional visibility and personal brand reach on the platform. Enabling LinkedIn tagging allows your network to reference you in relevant posts, expanding your organic exposure without any extra effort. For professionals, recruiters, and businesses, being mentioned by others drives profile traffic and strengthens credibility. This simple privacy setting can meaningfully boost your LinkedIn engagement and discoverability.
