Email domain

@linkedin.com

LinkedIn is the dominant professional network and the largest B2B advertising and recruiting platform globally, owned by Microsoft. Talent acquisition leaders pitching enterprise contracts, sales-tech vendors building integrations, agencies buying LinkedIn ads, and recruiters poaching from LinkedIn itself all look up the email format. The company runs on linkedin.com with first.last as the standard pattern, and a smaller cluster of long-tenured employees still hold first-name-only addresses on the same domain.

LinkedIn email pattern breakdown

Across the LinkedIn employees we have on file, the following patterns cover the majority of contacts. Always verify with a real-time SMTP check before sending, because patterns vary by team and tenure.

Pattern Sample address Frequency
first.last@linkedin.com zachary.brennan@linkedin.com ~60%
