Ever feel like your LinkedIn posts are shouting into the void? Blame (or thank) the algorithm. But don’t worry—there are ways to make it work for you.
First, engagement is king. The more comments, likes, and shares your post gets early on, the more LinkedIn boosts it. So, ask questions, tag people, and reply to every comment like you’re running for office.
Timing matters. Post when your network is awake—usually weekday mornings. And don’t sleep on hashtags, but keep it to three max. #LessIsMore
Native content wins. Upload videos and images directly to LinkedIn instead of sharing YouTube links. The algorithm loves it.
Real talk: I once posted a poll about pineapple on pizza (controversial, I know). The debate exploded, and my profile views doubled overnight. Turns out, sparking conversation is the ultimate hack.
So, experiment, analyze, and remember: the algorithm is mysterious, but not unbeatable.
