What makes a LinkedIn Page work for a local business?

LinkedIn’s own figures: a complete Page gets 30% more weekly views, weekly posting doubles engagement, and an image doubles the comments.

What LinkedIn says

  1. Complete every section

    LinkedIn says complete Pages see a 30 percent increase in weekly Page views.

  2. Post weekly

    Companies that post weekly see a 2x lift in engagement with their content.

  3. An image in every post

    Images typically bring a 2x higher comment rate, and video gets 5x more engagement.

  4. 3 to 5 hashtags

    The ones that are top of mind for your organization, added to posts.

  5. Grow past 150 followers

    LinkedIn says that is where a Page’s opportunity for growth becomes exponential.

  6. A second super admin

    So the Page is never locked when one person leaves, and share the Page on LinkedIn and elsewhere from the admin view.

  7. Read the post analytics

    For each type of post, from the admin view.

What Google says

What Google shows
One LinkedIn link on your Business Profile.
Counts toward ranking?
No. Google lists five actions that improve local ranking, and activity on social media is not one of them. The platform sends people to you; the listing is what ranks.

What we do

  1. The company page

    The owner’s story, new hires, community moments, the why behind the care.

  2. One weekly slot

    The rhythm we recommend, which matches LinkedIn’s own figure.

  3. Copy to other platforms

    A Facebook or blog post becomes a LinkedIn draft, so the stories are told once and shaped per platform.

  4. Coming soon on the card

    The LinkedIn card on Set up socials says so until the connection is live; the playbook applies the day it is.
