LinkedIn Launches Advertisting Network

LinkedIn, which is one of the few networking sites to generate revenue, has launched a new advertising network. With this new source of revenue, LinkedIn will be able to capitalize on its desirous audience: "influential and affluent professionals across hundreds of high-quality brand-name publishers."

"The message we hear from advertisers is simple: They want mass reach against specific segments of decision-making professionals, and they want their ads to appear in quality environments," said Steve Patrizi, LinkedIn's director of advertising sales. "The LinkedIn Audience Network offers advertisers one of the most accurate audience data sets available on the Web, along with the confidence of knowing that their brands will only appear on sites with high editorial standards."
