Not sure what to post on LinkedIn?
Our social media team looks after a number of high-level LinkedIn accounts, and we see them get conversion after conversion every month through our posts and strategies.
We often get asked what type of content is best to post on LinkedIn - and the answer is simple.
Videos.
Here's why.
Video is outperforming text by over 30% on LinkedIn for click-throughs and engagement.
Why is that important?
Because engagement is the doorway in the algorithm to reach more people and increase the traffic to your LinkedIn page.
If you're serious about getting your LinkedIn page up and running and want to reach more people, the right video content will definitely help you do that.
Video is one of the fastest-growing content types on LinkedIn.
LinkedIn video views have grown by 50% year-over-year since 2022 and are expected to continue this year in 2024.
Members are also 20% more likely to share a video post on LinkedIn, more than any other type of post.
Think about how popular video platforms are like YouTube and TikTok. Even Instagram, a once photo-only social media platform, is now video content-heavy.
That's because people like watching videos, making it an important part of your LinkedIn marketing mix.
In 2023, 85% of B2B marketers agreed that video was a highly effective tool for generating leads for their business. 78% said videos had also helped increase their brand awareness.
LinkedIn is the number 1 B2B marketing platform, so it makes sense to use the type of content that generates leads.
This is great news for businesses that invest in video production for their profiles - because if your video generates leads, that's a direct ROI for your efforts (and nerves if you don't like being on camera!).
We know video is a very broad answer when you're wondering what to post on LinkedIn.
And truthfully, other posts like infographics, articles, photos and texts can also work extremely well too.
But if you're trying to invest in your LinkedIn social media as a part of your marketing strategy, then make sure you add video to the list!
This blog comes with a warning - just because you post a video won't make your LinkedIn account successful overnight.
Success on social media requires a strategy, and that strategy needs to be executed well.
