Have you ever wondered why some of your posts on LinkedIn do better than the others? Is there some secret hidden behind it or just that luck plays a part in it. In today’s blog Ytviews brings a detailed breakdown of why some posts o LinkedIn works and some do not as we want you to grow along with us.

Not a Secret but just algorithm:
There is no secret behind the well-done post, it’s just a mix of the right strategy and algorithm that makes your post viral. LinkedIn currently prioritizes content that has high engagement, especially through the comment section and not just likes. In this process authenticity and human-centric approach also plays a great role.
Let us dive deeper into what fosters more engagement on LinkedIn and the reason behind it:
Carousels:
Carousels are a great way to hook readers especially when it comes to educational content as each swipe in a carousel is a blend of visual and text-based content which encourages users to spend more time swiping through the post. This allows boosting engagement and keeping people hooked to your content.
30 Sec Videos:
High quality vertical videos act as a key medium of engagement as they provide a human connection which fosters deeper connection. The 3o seconds video on LinkedIn helps to keep the audience hooked and provide key information in a short span.

Polls:
Polls act in a very interactive way for generating quick engagement, initiating conversation and gathering information on what is going in the viewers mind on LinkedIn.
Multi-Image Posts:
Like every platform has its own way to support visuals, LinkedIn also pushes content with multiple image formats for instance- Collage or before/after image posts.

2.Next is how compared to it your text-based post can work more. For maximum reach first use a compelling hook within the first 40-50 words of the post, break-text into short easy to read sentences with plenty of white space and avoid external links in the post itself instead place them in the comment section at the end conclude by asking a question this will drive more engagement on a post.
