  • LinkedIn posting strategies for optimal engagement and reach.

    It's ideal to post on LinkedIn 2-3 times per week, spending 15 minutes engaging with replies before spending another 15 minutes interacting with other people's posts. Vary your post formats, as using the same one repeatedly can reduce your reach by 30%. Post new content between 10 am and noon, or when your followers tend to be online. LinkedIn determines how valuable the post is and whether or not to show it on other people's feeds during the first hour after you post.

  • LinkedIn algorithm favors platform-native posts and limited hashtags for visibility.

    LinkedIn's algorithm tends to favor posts made directly on the platform, so avoiding third-party tools and limiting edits within the first hour can help maintain visibility. Keeping hashtags under 5 and tagging only those likely to engage quickly can prevent the algorithm from throttling posts. Including captions in videos and using vertical formats can further boost engagement and visibility.
