Every "top LinkedIn creators in Denmark" list ranks people by followers. Here is the problem with that: followers measure the past, not the present. The biggest account in this ranking, with 243k followers, lands second. The account that tops the list, a philosophy and psychology professor, has fewer followers and almost three times the median likes of anyone below him.
So we ranked Denmark differently. At MagicPost, we analyzed the 80 Danish creators in our dataset (everyone with at least 5,000 followers and 30 posts in the last 12 months) and ranked them by median likes per post over the last 12 months: what actually happens, today, when they hit publish. For scale: the median Danish creator in this pool earns 42 likes per post. Number twenty on this list earns roughly twice that. Number one earns 59 times that, and runs nearly three times ahead of number two.
Each entry shows the creator's data card (followers, engagement rate, favorite posting slot, themes, multi-year trajectory of their median likes), what stands out in their numbers, and their most liked post of the last 12 months.
The full board first, then the countdown:

Svend Brinkmann is a professor of psychology at Aalborg University, and the most unusual number one of this cluster: not a CEO, founder or journalist, but an academic.

His 1.37% engagement rate is the second-highest of this top 20 despite a 181k audience, and his yearly median read 1,599 in 2025. He writes long, emoji-free essays.
"Trump har besluttet at sende et hospitalsskib til Grønland for at \"behandle de mange mennesker, der er syge\".\n>\n> Jeg håber, grønlænderne vil tage imod det på betingelse af, at vi sender et biblioteksskib."

Where do these cards come from? Every figure on this page runs on MagicPost's LinkedIn analytics: median engagement, engagement rates, themes, trajectories and favorite slots, across 80 Danish creators. It works on your profile too, including a side-by-side with anyone on this list.
The efficiency champions (pound for pound)
Raw likes favor big audiences, so here is the other cut: engagement rate, median likes per post divided by followers (minimum 20k followers). The list reshuffles:
Creator | Followers | Engagement rate | Median likes |
181k | 1.37% | 2,474 | |
26k | 1.14% | 300 | |
23k | 0.91% | 211 | |
96k | 0.74% | 703 | |
21k | 0.55% | 117 |
Brinkmann is the rare creator who tops both cuts: he wins on raw median likes and on efficiency. Across the whole top 20, engagement rate ranges from 2.21% (Barbara Myhre Isaksen, the smallest audience here) down to 0.14% (Lars Jensen), a sixteenfold spread: the most engaged audiences in Denmark belong to small and mid-sized accounts, not the biggest ones.
The conversation champion
One more cut nobody publishes: the ratio of comments to likes. The Danish record belongs to Philip T. Wylonis: 141 median comments against 211 median likes, roughly two comments for every three likes, when the platform norm is one comment per ten likes. It is the most conversational feed of the 80 we measured.
Where are the "LinkedIn creators"?
Notice who dominates this top 20: a psychology professor, founders, a shipping analyst, CEOs, a copywriter, a retired ambassador. People whose subject is bigger than the platform. The Danish LinkedIn-native creators (the people who teach content, copywriting and growth on the platform itself) are scattered through the lower half, not the top.
That does not make the native creators less interesting, it makes them a different study: they tend to win on consistency, conversation and selling, not on raw reach. We profile creators like them in our creators series.
One timing note while you are here: three of these twenty creators post in the evening or on Sunday, against a Danish field that mostly publishes on weekday mornings, the same window that works for normal accounts. When you already own an audience, the clock bends to you; until then, post before the crowd. And if part of your plan is showing up in these creators' comments, an engagement feed makes that a daily five-minute habit.
Study them, then study yourself. With MagicPost you can analyze any Danish creator the way we just did (median engagement, engagement rate, themes, trajectory, slots) and benchmark your own profile against the country. The data on this page is the product.
Where this data comes from
Everything in this article is MagicPost's own research, not a copied list. MagicPost analyzed the last 12 months of posts of 80 Danish creators (minimum 5,000 followers and 30 posts, deleted posts excluded), ranked them by median likes per post, and computed per-creator themes, yearly trajectories, writing fingerprints, engagement rates (median likes / followers) and conversation ratios. Denmark is a small market: 80 creators clear the floors, so this top 20 is the top quarter of the eligible pool, and the floors (5,000 followers, 30 recent posts) do real filtering here. Rankings refresh as the data does; figures dated June 2026. No one paid to be on this list, and no one can: it is arithmetic.
Veelgestelde vragen
Who is the top LinkedIn creator in Denmark in 2026?
By real impact (median likes per post over the last 12 months), Svend Brinkmann: 2,474 median likes across 181k followers, a psychology professor at Aalborg University. By raw audience size, Jesper Buch (243k followers), who ranks second by impact.
How is this ranking calculated?
Median likes per post over the last 12 months, among the 80 Danish creators MagicPost analyzes with at least 5,000 followers and 30 recent posts. Median, not average, so one viral post cannot buy a spot.
Why is the biggest Danish account not number one?
Because followers measure accumulated audience, not current engagement. Jesper Buch has the largest following here (243k), but his engagement rate is 0.34% (median likes divided by followers), while Brinkmann at number one runs at 1.37%.
Who are the most efficient Danish creators?
By engagement rate (median likes / followers, minimum 20k followers): Svend Brinkmann (1.37%), Mette Louise Kaagaard (1.14%) and Philip T. Wylonis (0.91%). The single highest rate of the top 20 belongs to Barbara Myhre Isaksen (2.21%), the smallest audience on the list.
Are there any "LinkedIn creators" in the Danish top 20?
The top of the list belongs to a professor, founders, executives and a shipping analyst. The platform-native creators who teach content and growth sit lower in the ranking rather than at the top.
What is the best time to post on LinkedIn in Denmark?
For most accounts, weekday mornings (the general LinkedIn timing data). Three of this top 20 post in the evening or on Sunday instead, a luxury of already owning an audience.
