LinkedIn Publishing Just Got Easier

 

Confused about how to get the most from LinkedIn Publishing?

Not to worry…the latest updates to LinkedIn Publishing are making it easier for you to find and channel your marketing content inspirations for more leads.
I discovered this weekend that LinkedIn redesigned the blogging experience on LinkedIn, based on how you write.
The new LinkedIn Publishing experience – clean, elegant and intuitive…in a word, slick…was created with you in mind.

Whatever your style, your subject, your background, LinkedIn has made it easier than ever to share your valuable insights and ideas with the world in a blog post that, used effectively, can be a powerful business generator.
Here’s how to make the most of the LinkedIn Publishing updates:
1. Pick a vibrant visual
Add a cover photo to make your post stand out. LinkedIn’s made it simple to include a big, bold visual that sets the tone for your words. Readers are 14 times more likely to click on blogs that include a compelling image. Cut visual clutter and pick one that has one strong, central focal point. Go for crisp colors or dramatic black and white – and make sure the image ties in with the themes in your blog.
2. Choose a compelling title
After the cover photo, a headline is the next step in grabbing a reader’s attention. Help LinkedIn members find, like, share and comment on your article with a catchy, interesting title that aligns with your subject matter. As with the rest of the new LinkedIn Publishing experience, simple is best—no need to make your title overly complicated.

BONUS TIP: For maximum impact, make your title short enough that it fits in the display place on your profile.
3. Content is EVERYTHING
In the end, it’s what you share that will resonate with readers on LinkedIn, engage them and compel them to take the next step with you.

The best posts incorporate the valuable expertise that is unique to you, the author—and leaves readers inspired…and wanting more of what you have to offer. When you do this, you build your professional brand, expand your network and followers, educate your audience and grow your business.

BONUS TIP: For marketing content inspiration, think about what your Ideal Clients want to know…what are the questions they ask you, what are the problems they want you to solve for them?

ADVANCED BONUS TIP: To maximize the lead generation potential of LinkedIn Publishing, include an effective mix of compelling content and promotion in your article.

Note: If you want to easily and exponentially increase your reach, the articles you post with LinkedIn Publishing give you tremendous visibility. How is that? They can be viewed by all 313+ million LinkedIn members globally and are searchable both on LinkedIn and on Google. Imagine the impact that kind of exposure could have on your business!
