BranchOut Reaches 300 Million Profiles

BranchOut, the professional jobs network that runs on top of Facebook, announced that it has reached 300 million profiles in its network.That’s many more profiles than what exists on rival LinkedIn, which has about 135 million members. However, it’s important to note that, apples for apples, that 300 million is BranchOut profiles–not users. BranchOut has about 10 million registered users, so it’s still much smaller than LinkedIn by that count. When a user joins BranchOut, that user brings all of his or her friends’ publicly available information to BranchOut–thus the large 300 million profile number.
