In addition to Mr. Vinod's answer, they are two different sites aimed for different purposes. Both are helpful in the way they are set.

it is very important question. On LinkedIn Connecting with professionals is not easy. on bayt you get connected and get much information about your subject/Department

I fully agree with the answer been added by EXPERTS.........................Thanks.

Bayt is good for QNA sessions ............I hardly see any job opportunity flashing around , I do not see any mail sent saying " This requirement is close to your profile, skill , qualifications and skills" . Admin and senior members do encourage to participate in QNA sessions with lucrative offers. 

Linkedin is a social site where people do write articles and share their views and ideas and as the name says it links to with people who posses same skill sets. 

Mr.Vinod sir and Waleed sir has mentioned all valid points about the respective sites and I fully agree with both of them. When it comes to preference I think I'm now little addicted to Bayt.com especially in the process of knowledge sharing and learning. Thanks, I really liked this medium of communication and interaction with superiors and friends.   

Best Bayt.  com

The reason for it is more specialized And more professional
