To check your LinkedIn Social Selling Index, sign in and go to linkedin.com/sales/ssi. The dashboard is free for every member, it does not require Sales Navigator, and it shows a score from 0 to 100 that LinkedIn recalculates daily. That is the whole process. The rest of this guide explains what the numbers on that page actually mean.
Check your SSI in three steps
- Sign in to LinkedIn. Use the account whose score you want. SSI is scored per person, not per company, so each team member has their own.
- Open linkedin.com/sales/ssi. Type or paste the address into your browser while signed in. The Social Selling Index page loads on its own, whether or not you pay for any LinkedIn product.
- Read your breakdown. You get your total out of 100, four component scores worth 25 points each, and two percentiles: how you rank in your industry and how you rank within your own network.
What the dashboard shows you
The page is more useful than the single headline number. It breaks your score into the four parts LinkedIn uses to build it, and it tells you where you stand relative to other people.
| On the dashboard | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Total SSI (0 to 100) | Your overall score, the sum of the four components below. |
| Four component scores (25 each) | Professional brand, finding the right people, engaging with insights, and building relationships. This is where you see which pillar is holding you back. |
| Industry SSI rank | Your percentile against other people in your industry. |
| Network SSI rank | Your percentile against the people in your own network. |
The percentiles matter more than the raw number. A 65 that sits in the top 5% of your industry is a stronger position than a 75 that sits in the middle of a very active one.
Do you need Sales Navigator?
No. This is the most common misconception about SSI. The dashboard lives on a /sales/URL, which makes people assume it is a paid feature, but the score itself is free for every LinkedIn member. Sales Navigator can help you raise the "find the right people" component, but you do not need it just to see where you stand.
Checking it on a phone
There is no dedicated button for SSI in the LinkedIn mobile app, but you can open linkedin.com/sales/ssi in your phone’s browser while signed in and the dashboard loads the same way it does on desktop. Bookmark it if you want to glance at it week to week.
Frequently asked questions
How do I check my LinkedIn SSI?
Sign in to LinkedIn and open linkedin.com/sales/ssi. The Social Selling Index dashboard loads directly, with your total score out of 100, a breakdown across the four components, and two percentile rankings. There is no menu to hunt through.
Is checking your Social Selling Index free?
Yes. The SSI dashboard at linkedin.com/sales/ssi is free for every LinkedIn member. You do not need Sales Navigator, Premium, or a Recruiter seat to see your own score.
How often does the SSI score update?
SSI recalculates daily, so a change you make today (finishing your profile, publishing a post, connecting with the right people) can show up in the score within a day or two rather than instantly.
Why is my SSI page blank or showing no score?
Two common reasons: you are not signed in to the account you expected, or the account is very new with too little activity for LinkedIn to score yet. Confirm you are logged into the right profile, and if the account is new, give it a few days of normal use and check again.
