I created my LinkedIn account 53 weeks ago. Since then I've generated ~$200,000 in direct rev, built 10,000+ connections and passed 4 million impressions. Super easy algo to crack. LinkedIn continues to be one of the strongest channels for inbound, authority, and consistent deal flow. Use my system before they tighten the algorithm again.

Here is what is working best on LinkedIn right now: High impact proof posts are still outperforming everything else. LinkedIn continues rewarding posts that combine a real metric, a short narrative, and a clear business insight. These generate both dwell time and strong early engagement, which are the two main distribution levers. Short story driven posts are pulling huge numbers this month. Tight stories about client outcomes, small wins, failures, pivots, or lessons learned create emotional engagement and keep people reading longer. Both factors increase reach. Conversation starter posts remain one of the most reliable visibility triggers. You need first hour comments for distribution, and bold questions, stances, and challenges still generate the fastest comment velocity. Native formats continue to do really well. Text posts, carousels, and native videos significantly outperform link out posts. LinkedIn continues suppressing link reach. If you add a link, either place it in the comments or replace the preview image inside the post. Dwell time is still one of the strongest ranking factors. If people read your full post, swipe through multiple carousel slides, or watch your video mostly or fully, you get boosted. Topic authority continues to grow in importance. Posting consistently around the same topic or category strengthens your topic score, which increases distribution to users who follow or engage with that topic. Cross niche engagement amplifies reach. Commenting in 2 to 3 adjacent categories expands your first hour engagement pool and brings your content into new networks. Reposting top performers is now practically an official LinkedIn best practice. Most followers never saw your post the first time. Repost every 2 to 4 weeks with a new hook or framing. Posts with replies to replies get extended visibility. Deeper comment threads are weighted highly, and posts with multi level conversations stay in feeds for days. Here is my current posting routine which still works extremely well: I post 3 times per day, every day. Morning is a proof driven post or a strong point of view. Afternoon is a carousel, teardown, or case study. Evening is a lesson, system, or mini thread. Skipping even one day reduces next day reach. Here are the formats performing best right now: Carousels with a bold headline on slide 1 tied to a result or pain point, 3 to 5 tight middle slides with steps or visuals, and a final slide with a clear call to action such as “Comment guide if you want the full version.” Short native videos under 60 seconds with a hook in the first 2 to 3 seconds. Subtitles matter. Walkthroughs and behind the scenes style videos outperform talking head videos. Proof breakdowns that show the metric, explain how it happened in 3 to 4 steps, and end with a lesson or takeaway. Sharp hook text posts with 1 to 2 line paragraphs, 3 to 5 takeaways, and a question at the end to prompt replies. Conversation posts that generate multi level comment threads. Here is what is currently losing traction: Link out posts with no context. Metrics with no explanation. Large blocks of text with no spacing. Generic content that blends in with everything else. Posts where you never reply to comments in the first hour. Here is the engagement strategy that is working best right now: Comment on 20 or more posts per day. Like 50 or more posts per day. Reply to every comment on your own posts in the first hour. Repost top performing content every 5 to 7 days with a new hook. DM 5 to 10 people per day with specific, contextual value tied to something they posted. Create deeper comment threads by asking follow up questions, tagging people, or continuing the conversation. LinkedIn is heavily rewarding repeat engagement from the same people and deeper threads where replies provoke more replies. Here are the hooks performing best right now: I started this account 53 weeks ago. Here is what nearly $200,000 in pipeline actually looks like. This 4 slide carousel booked 5 calls in 24 hours. Here is slide 1. If I had to rebuild my LinkedIn from zero today, this is the exact system I would use. My 3 post per day routine for consistent inbound. I made X this month from LinkedIn.
