LinkedIn is making it easier for marketers to advertise internationally on the professional networking site by allowing them to create display ads in one or more of 17 major world languages including Japanese, French, Czech and Turkish. “Until now, these ads have only been available in English, however it’s always been our goal to expand languages across the 200 countries where we operate,” stated a LinkedIn blog post today. Earlier this month, Linkedin said 35% of its $228 million in second quarter revenue came from international sales.
