Hey, today I'm going to be talking about my Linkedin Content Strategy for Affiliate Marketers! Linkedin is very similar to Facebook except with a free account you can have 30,000 friends in Linkedin while in Facebook you can only have 5,000. They are both a lot.
I'm not going to talk about groups or the profile because that will be too much.
Just like Facebook if you put any link in the feed of Linkedin that thing will die and nobody will see it. They companies don't want you to leave their platform, and we have to play by their rules.
Just like Facebook, what I do is use a free link shortening service called Bitly. Bily will go to my website where of course I capture someone's email address. They call this a squeeze page or optin page.
When I post my bitly link into linkedin I make sure to put a space between the dot and bit. The directly next to it I will write, remove the space to create the link. This makes the link not clickable which is very important.
It's also better to upload a video directly to Linkedin instead of just putting a YouTube video in the feed. This is just like Facebook. If you are wondering when is the best time to post on Linkedin then it's going to be around business hours. On a Saturday afternoon not many people care about Linkedin.
One of the cool things about Linkedin is you can write articles. All the videos I create I also make into a podcast as well as articles and even books. I suck the life out of all the stuff I create because I'm very lazy.
What I do is include a picture and post it on the top. I also embed my YouTube videos to the article. Then I include the article and I also put quotes around important parts to make them jump out.
Very importantly when it comes to writing you want to break up the text as much as you can. You don't want a solid piece of text.
All these elements, the picture, the video the quotes and the short sentences between a space makes the article jump out.
Of course a good headline can help. One tip on writing content that I'm going to share with you I got from Joe Sugarman who is a great content marketer is the whole purpose of the first line of a sentence is to get someone to read the second line.
The whole purpose of the second line is to get someone to read the third line and so on. Until it's a slippery slope, they are into it and it comes down to momentum.
Most people scan stuff when they read, do you do that? This is why quotes that jump out at people and pull them back in can be a great idea.
