Wondering what type of content you should post? Well, there are certain types of posts that tend to be more popular and can increase your visibility. Here are a few examples:
1. Get Involved in Conversations and Spread the Word
Did you know that discussions with lots of comments and shares get the most attention on LinkedIn? It’s true! This is a cool way for you to connect with the person who started the discussion and all the others who are involved.
So, what are you waiting for? Start engaging with other members of the LinkedIn community by commenting on and sharing those popular posts!
2. Have a Question? Just Ask!
We all need help sometimes, right? Well, asking a question on LinkedIn not only gets you the help you need, but it also helps you make connections with others.
Before you ask your question, take some time to look around and see what people in your group are discussing. This way, you can get an idea of what topics are important and what kind of information is being shared. Then, when you’re ready, go ahead and ask your question!
There are different types of discussions in some groups. Some ask for help with issues, while others ask for recommendations. There are also discussions where people seek input for articles. Some groups have all of these types of discussions.
If you want to engage with group members, it’s important to post questions that are popular and of interest to the group.
This part is a bit tricky.
One problem that LinkedIn group members and managers have is that people tend to use groups as a place to share a lot of content. However, the main purpose of groups is for discussions and sharing information.
When I occasionally post information on my group, I need to make sure that it is relevant. It’s important to remember that studies have shown that posts with images and videos get a 98% higher engagement rate and a 75% higher share rate.
Furthermore, 64% of LinkedIn members expect posts to be both informative and insightful. I should make sure that the information I share answers a question or solves a problem for the members.
Whatever I do, I shouldn’t make my post sound like a sales pitch. It’s not only unappealing, but it’s also against the rules in groups.
How often should I post in a LinkedIn Group?
I should aim to visit each of my top groups several times a week so that I can keep up with discussions. It’s important to actively participate in conversations and consistently add value to them.
