💡 Pro Tips

1
Use a strong hook in the first two lines

LinkedIn collapses your post after two lines — start with a question, stat, or bold opinion to make people click 'see more'.

2
Post consistently, but not too often

Posting 2–4 times per week performs better than daily spam. Give your content time to breathe and engage before posting again.

3
Ask thoughtful questions

Encourage comments by asking relevant, open-ended questions at the end of your posts. More comments = more reach.

4
Use line breaks and emojis for readability

LinkedIn users skim content. Use formatting to make your posts scannable, easy to digest, and visually engaging.

5
Respond to every comment

Engaging with your audience in the comments signals to LinkedIn that the post is active and boosts visibility further.

6
Include native documents or carousels

Uploading PDFs or slide-style carousels often performs better than linking to external blogs or websites.

7
Tag people authentically

Tag collaborators or relevant professionals — but only when it’s natural. Forced tags can hurt reach and trust.

8
Use analytics to double down on top-performing formats

Look at your best posts and replicate the structure, tone, or topic. Use tools like PostPlanify to monitor what’s working.

9
Post during business hours in your audience's time zone

LinkedIn is a professional platform. Posting between 8 AM and 11 AM on weekdays (especially Tue–Thu) tends to drive better results.

10
Share your story, not just your resume

Personal stories, lessons, and behind-the-scenes posts create stronger emotional connections than announcements or updates alone.
