Here’s 5 quick tips to help you make the most of your LinkedIn presence and boost engagement.  

We are all busy, so these insights from LinkedIn can help you save time and achieve better results:

 1 Create Valuable Content

 Focus on creating content that provides lasting value to your audience. 

Evergreen posts with actionable insights can attract more engagement and keep your followers interested.

An evergreen post refers to content that remains relevant, valuable, and engaging over time, regardless of when it was initially published. Unlike news articles or trending topics, evergreen content doesn't lose its appeal as time passes.

Examples of evergreen content include:

* How-to guides

* Tips and advice

* Inspirational stories

* Industry insights

* Educational articles

* Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

* Testimonials and case studies.

By creating evergreen posts, you can create a library of valuable content that can be shared and revisited repeatedly.

 2 Avoid Clickbait and Spam

Keep your content genuine and informative. 

Avoid using clickbait tactics or spammy practices, as LinkedIn actively works to minimise these types of posts.

Clickbait refers to a technique used in online content creation, where attention-grabbing headlines and descriptions are intentionally crafted to entice users to click on a link or consume the content, often by exaggerating or misrepresenting the actual content.

Clickbait typically employs tactics like:

* Exaggerated claims (e.g., "You won't believe what happens next!")

* Teaser headlines (e.g., "10 secrets the industry doesn't want you to know")

* Emotional triggers (e.g., "This story will make you cry!")

* Misleading images or titles (e.g., an image unrelated to the actual content)

 While clickbait can generate short-term traffic, it often leads to disappointment or frustration for users who discover that the content does not match their expectations. As such, many platforms, including LinkedIn, are actively working to reduce the prevalence of clickbait content to improve user experience.

 3 Use Analytics Tools

 Track your LinkedIn performance using tools like Hootsuite or LinkedIn's native analytics. 

This data will help you understand what content resonates with your audience and how to improve your strategy.

 4 Study Your Competitors

Keep an eye on what your competitors are doing on LinkedIn. 

By analysing their performance, you can identify areas where you can improve and gain an advantage.

Benchmarking against your competitors on a LinkedIn company page can be achieved by using the competitor analytics feature. 

This feature allows LinkedIn Page admins to compare their brand's performance against competitors by analysing follower and organic content metrics.

To benchmark your performance, add other pages to your competitor analytics. 

This will enable you to see how their followers and posts compare to your own, giving you valuable insights into your performance relative to your competition. 

By monitoring these metrics, you can identify areas where your brand excels or needs improvement, helping you to refine your LinkedIn strategy and stay ahead of the competition. 

 5 Prioritise High-ROI Strategies

Monitor your lead generation, conversions, and campaign performance. 

Invest more time and resources into the strategies that give you the best results to maximise your return on investment.

A high ROI (Return on Investment) strategy for LinkedIn focuses on maximising the value you get from the time, effort, and resources you invest in the platform. Here are some high ROI strategies to consider:

a) Optimise Your Company Page

Ensure your LinkedIn Company Page is complete, up-to-date, and showcases your brand's unique value proposition. This will help attract followers and potential customers.

b) Share Valuable Content

Consistently share relevant, engaging, and evergreen content that positions your brand as an authority in your industry. This can help build trust with your target audience and encourage them to follow and engage with your content.

c) Leverage Video Content

Video content tends to generate higher engagement on LinkedIn. Share educational, entertaining, and informative videos to capture the attention of your audience and stand out in the feed.

d) Engage with Your Audience 

Actively engage with your audience by responding to comments, joining relevant conversations, and participating in industry-related LinkedIn Groups. This can help build strong connections and establish your brand as an approachable and trustworthy industry player.
