If you want to increase the impressions of your posts, don’t focus on impressions! Instead, you are better served by focussing on making your content comment-worthy. This week I’m going to take a look at a failed post that had great potential and examine how it could be changed to attract more engagement. |

Some people post about a good deed they have done, show a picture of their flashy new car, or casually mention that they are on an exotic holiday. Most of us would never post anything like that but it can’t be denied that such posts typically attract high engagement so I thought it would be a good idea to explore this technique and evaluate whether it’s a good idea or not! |

What are you doing with your connections? Are you just engaging with their content and occasionally sending them a message or are you making the effort to talk with them face to face? This week I talk with Kathryn Strachan, the MD and Founder of Copy House, a technology content marketing agency about how she has used a LinkedIn outreach strategy successfully on LinkedIn. |

Should LinkedIn primarily be a source of information or a networking platform? Inspired by an interesting post I saw about the problems associated with posts that contain links. Plus plenty of new and rumored features and of course a brilliant post of the week. |

Why do people post images of themselves on their LinkedIn posts?
Does it help with engagement or is it just egotistical nonsense? This week I discuss this with Lynnaire Johnston and you might be surprised at the conclusions! |

LinkedIn connections: Do you need them? How many is enough? Are they overrated? Is it better to have followers? Plus changes to the feed algorithm, a 16-year-old gets banned and a brilliant post of the week from an Uber driver! |

You sit down to write that LinkedIn post. You have a good topic but you know it’s important to stop the scroll with a strong headline and motivate those who read it to comment…and you're stuck! Maybe a robot can help? Have you considered the benefits of using AI to stimulate better copy ideas and structure? |
