100 Most Followed Companies on LinkedIn (2026)
Follower count on LinkedIn is one of the most misunderstood metrics in B2B.
On its own, it doesn’t equal success. But consistent follower growth is a strong indicator of relevance, reach, and future visibility. Company Pages that grow steadily tend to earn broader organic distribution and build familiarity long before buyers are ready to act.
That’s why this list exists.
It’s not about chasing vanity metrics or copying what the biggest brands are doing. It’s about understanding which Company Pages have earned attention — and what that tells us about how LinkedIn actually works.
If you’re here because you want to grow your own LinkedIn Company Page followers, the real value isn’t the list itself. It’s learning what sits behind the numbers: clear positioning, consistent messaging, and deliberate use of the Page as a growth lever.
Used properly, a Company Page isn’t just a publishing channel.
It’s a strategic asset.
Why Follower Count Still Matters on LinkedIn (and when it doesn’t)
Follower count isn’t the goal — but it does matter.
A growing follower base gives your Company Page:
Greater organic reach over time
Faster distribution when content performs well
Increased familiarity before buyers enter the decision phase
What follower count doesn’t tell you is whether LinkedIn is driving leads, revenue, or meaningful outcomes on its own.
This list is useful because it shows who has built sustained attention on LinkedIn, not because it sets a benchmark you should aim to match.
Perspective Matters: Scale Isn’t The Lesson Here
It’s mind-blowing to realise that Google, ranked first on this list of the 100 Most Followed Companies on LinkedIn, has more Company Page followers than the population of Australia.
These Company Pages don’t just outperform individuals — they outperform almost every LinkedIn influencer too. The notable exception is Bill Gates, who has built a following of nearly 40 million.
While most B2B businesses will never reach this scale, the takeaway is important:
LinkedIn Company Pages can attract — and compound — serious attention when they’re used deliberately.
With LinkedIn continuing to invest in Company Page features, this is no longer a “nice to have” channel. It’s one businesses should be resourcing properly.
Use These LinkedIn Company Pages As A Guide — Not a Benchmark
The number of followers on these Pages shouldn’t be disheartening, especially if you’re just getting started.
Most companies on this list are global organisations with:
Large workforces
Established brand recognition
Marketing budgets spread across multiple channels
That’s not the point of this list.
Instead, use it as a learning tool.
Look for Company Pages that are relevant to your industry or audience. Pay attention to the type of content that resonates with their followers, how they communicate their value, and how the Page supports the wider business.
What works for them won’t automatically work for you.
You’ll have a different audience, different goals, and different constraints.
But this is an excellent place to start testing what might work — and refining it based on how your own followers respond.

What The Fastest Growing LinkedIn Company Pages Have In Common
When you look beyond brand size and budget, clear patterns emerge.
The most followed Company Pages tend to:
Treat the Company Page as a hub, not an afterthought
Use employees to amplify content intentionally
Focus on audience relevance over internal updates
Build familiarity through consistency, not volume
Align Page content with broader business goals
Follower growth isn’t accidental. But it isn’t copy-and-paste either.
It’s the outcome of clarity, alignment, and patience.
Why Copying These Companies Won’t Work (and what will)
You can’t copy:
Their brand recognition
Their scale
Their existing audience
But you can learn from:
How clearly they communicate their value
How consistently they show up
How deliberately they use their Company Page
Most Company Pages struggle not because LinkedIn is broken, but because the Page has no defined role in the business.
Follower growth is rarely the objective. It’s the by-product of doing the fundamentals well.
If You’re Serious About Growing Your LinkedIn Company Page
There are two sensible next steps, depending on where you are at.
If you want clarity and direction
👉 LinkedIn Company Page Audit & Strategy
For leaders and marketing teams who want a clear plan before doing more.
If you want your team trained to do this properly
👉 LinkedIn Company Page Admin Training
For teams responsible for managing, posting, and growing the Page.
Either way, the goal is the same:
Stop guessing. Start growing with intent.
