May 19, 2025A: You mean on the personal LinkedIn profiles? I haven't considered that.
Yes. I'm currently using Senja on my website because they allow you to bring those over and I have a few people who've written testimonials there as recommendations. I know a few other freelancers and one-man businesses doing the same.
I see. You can also import them via CSV file. The issue though is the platform needs a star rating at the moment. I’d have to import them as 5 star reviews if I build the scraper. Are they scraping or connecting to LinkedIn via OAuth?
It scraped the review. I just had to provide a link to my profile, and it pulled the comment and added a LinkedIn logo in the top-right corner to indicate where it came from.
I built and added a scraper for it, but it can only add the ones shown on the unauthenticated page. I was able to grab a photo, name, and review, but not a date.
