#linkedinchatLinkedIn ChatHow to best leverage LinkedIn

If I want to make a splash on LinkedIn - is it better to post content on my blog and share it or directly on LinkedIn? #LinkedInChat

[+] Show Hidden Comments

LinkedIn buzz is best driven by content (original or super curated). Twitter is more chatter and interaction; LinkedIn is more about value in the data/content

Thanks @furrier - I'm just getting ready to setup a VA to migrate data and am wondering where the best place to store the data is.

Viveka von Rosen

Mike - I would do both. Your updates are NOT searchable on Linkedin - but easy to do.#LinkedInCHat

Linkedin likes content. Doing a Post is more effective than sharing a link. Do both. Summarize in a post with link

Viveka von Rosen

BUT - if you do have Publisher - your posts are "stickier". but take the time to write good ones!

The content is solid ... So there's no downside to posting in both places.

Mike ping me if you want. I am studying LinkedIn bc I love the roledex but trying to crack the code on engagement. #socialbusiness can be big potential on LinkedIn

thanks @furrier I just connected with you on linkedIn

I've witnessed great numbers and shares from my linkedin publisher posts so now I see no reason to continue to post to my own personal blog

is Publisher something you have to pay for?

Viveka von Rosen

You can apply for it here: http://specialeditio...

LinkedIn Publishing on Linkedin Wait List
LinkedIn is opening up our publishing platform to our members, giving them a powerful new way to build their professional brand. When a member publishes a post on LinkedIn, their original content becomes part of their professional profile, is shared ...

Where is the best place to post content on linkedIn - Company page or in groups?

did you get the LinkedIn publishing capability yet? Groups are a hit or miss for me

Depending on the group type, company page may be better. It's open to public

Viveka von Rosen

You will FOR SURE get more engagement in Groups - but you have to be careful with SWAM

Viveka von Rosen

You can post whatever you want in your Company and Showcase Pages.

seems like if engagement is what you're looking for groups are where you'd want to be

@LinkedInExpert good point and love that it's searchable too. Not so sure if groups are searchable

LinkedIn will be swimming with the fishes if they don't clean up their engagement issues; it's too boring

I think it varies with your audience and nature of the post. Company Page for some and very targeted for groups

So try both ... and check results. Seems legit.

I LOVE that #CrowdChat allows you to embed a chat in your blog!

each "thread" is a permalink and google search considers it like a blog post so amazing SEO

when LinkedIn accepts Iframes then this will rock the LinkedIn Groups

Is there a way to turn off that link at the end of every post?

It is REALLY nice that you can follow a thread during a chat...

Viveka von Rosen

I do too- so cool :))

note all replies thread automatically to twitter; I call it auto-scaffolding - click on blue bird on this thread to see what is looks like on twitter

here is the example (i didn't sent to twitter) https://twitter.com/...

I LOVE that #CrowdChat allows you to embed a chat in your blog! #Linkedinchat http://t.co/0iFWGtfR...

Quoted By @CrowdCaptain

notice the right hand side the "locate this" where the "cc" blue icon is represents crowdchat comments

The problem is that the link even further limits the number of characters you can use

Ill try this for #CareerServChat if you guys give me access

I will approve you asap - love to have you

Has anyone been screwed yet by SWAM (site wide auto moderation?) I think they threw the baby out with the bathwater on that one!

[+] Show Hidden Comments

Nope, am aware of many who have. Seems like I have to approve half the posts in our LinkChat Group

have experienced that and hope I don't LOL

I haven't or not aware. How can I find out more info on this?

@furrier There are quite a few posts. If you get blocked in one group SWAM blocks your ability to post in all groups.

Viveka von Rosen

@furrier If your posts are no longer showing up in groups you've probably been SWAMed - means it needs to curated - which most moderators are too lazy to do!

Takes up a LOT of time in a big group

@ChaimShapiro Yes it does and even when I go to auto approve for our group. Some seem to get SWAM'd again

Not many Group Managers/Owners know they can edit that control for their group to save work.

Viveka von Rosen

@SteveCassady Exactly - and BTW - thanks so much for saving me yet again.

Viveka von Rosen

@SteveCassady Also check your mail tomorrow :)

I've been trying to get iframe other than Youtube videos - LinkedIn support is not that supportive

Just started a journey of reconnecting with Twitter & @Linkedin followers. Looking for tools or apps to make the journey smooth.

Hootsuite (available on the Iphone AppStore) is great for managing your social media accounts!

I've found that original content and hosting these community chats drive great organic interaction

@ScarletPHR unfortunately, I'm not a fan of their UI. :) Love their concept though. Have PRO & use @BufferApp

Viveka von Rosen

I LOVE LOVE LOVE @Oktopost and @Nimble

Viveka von Rosen

Also - I was chatting with the folks @eGrabber today and they have a REALLY cool new FREE feature coming out.

@LinkedInExpert oooo haven't heard of @Oktopost, dets please

@LinkedInExpert Agree @Nimble is great for connecting contacts across your digital touchpoints!

@LinkedInExpert guess who I will pestering? LOL
