LinkedIn Recommendations Widget
Show your LinkedIn recommendations on your website
Recommendations are some of the most credible proof you have: written by real colleagues and clients, under their own names. The recommendations widget turns them into testimonial cards on your website, with each person's photo, headline and relationship to you.
Quick answer
The LinkedIn recommendations widget displays the recommendations from your public LinkedIn profile on your website: who wrote each one, their headline, how you worked together and the full text, with a “…more” toggle. Show received, given, or both with tabs. Create it from your profile URL; it's included in the free plan.

LinkedIn Recommendations Widget FAQ
Where do the recommendations come from?
From the Recommendations section of your public LinkedIn profile. Recommendations you've received and given are both available, and you choose which to show.
Can I choose which recommendations appear?
You choose received, given or both, and how many to show. Visitors can click “Show more” to see the rest. Hiding individual recommendations isn't supported; you can hide a recommendation on LinkedIn itself.
How do new recommendations get added?
New recommendations appear after your profile refreshes: every 72 hours on Free, every 24 hours on Pro and every 30 minutes on Essentials.
Can I use it with a company page?
No. Recommendations belong to personal LinkedIn profiles, so this widget is available for person profiles only.
