I found a fascinating post by
LinkedIn generated the highest visitor-to-lead conversion rate at 2.60%, four times higher than Twitter (.67%) and seven times better than Facebook (.39%). The stats are based on a study of 3,128 business customers of the marketing agency HubSpot.

"This data clearly shows that LinkedIn is a good lead source. But few B2B companies use LinkedIn to its full potential," writes Scott, who is a marketer for the agency.
This news comes with the introduction of LinkedIn “Targeted Updates, which allows a law firm to target certain followers specifically and exclusively deliver content to them. In other words, with this feature not only can a firm segment its LinkedIn followers by a range of variables such as industry, job function, company size and geography but also deliver them targeted content. Check out the quick video about it.
