Get the analytics of your LinkedIn post

In this article, we'll take a closer look at how you can use analytics to improve your LinkedIn content creation strategy and make the most of your online presence.

What are social media analytics?

‍

First things first, let's talk about what analytics actually are. Analytics are measurements of your posts' performance, including things like views, likes, comments, and shares. With social media analytics, you can see which posts are resonating with your audience and which ones aren't. This information is crucial for understanding what's working and what's not, so you can make adjustments to improve your content creation strategy.

Analytics on LinkedIn

‍

So, how do you access analytics for your LinkedIn posts? Luckily, it's pretty easy. Once you've published a post, you can click on the three dots in the top right corner of the post and select "View Analytics". This will bring up a dashboard that shows you all sorts of data about your post, including the number of views, likes, comments, and shares.

Analyze LinkedIn analytics

‍

Now that you know how to access your analytics, let's talk about how to interpret them. The first thing you'll want to look at is the number of views your post has received. This will give you a sense of how many people are seeing your content. If your post isn't getting many views, it may be time to rethink your headline or the content of the post itself.

‍

Next, you'll want to look at the engagement metrics, such as likes, comments, and shares. Engagement is a good indicator of how well your post is resonating with your audience. If your post is getting a lot of likes and comments, it's a sign that people are interested in what you have to say. On the other hand, if your post isn't getting much engagement, it may be time to try a different approach.

‍

Content strategy

‍

Now that you know what to look for in your analytics, let's talk about how to use this data to improve your content creation strategy. One of the best ways to do this is to analyze your top-performing posts and try to replicate what made them successful. Look for common themes or topics that your audience seems to be interested in, and try to create more content around those topics.

‍

Another way to use your analytics is to experiment with different types of posts. For example, if you notice that your text-based posts aren't getting much engagement, try adding more images or videos to your posts. Or, if you notice that your posts about a certain topic are getting a lot of engagement, try writing more posts on that topic.

‍

‍

Finally, it's important to remember that analytics are just one tool in your content creation toolkit. While they can be incredibly helpful for understanding how your posts are performing, they shouldn't be the only factor you consider when creating content. At the end of the day, the most important thing is to create content that resonates with your audience and reflects your brand or personal style.

‍

Analytics are a powerful tool for content creators on LinkedIn. By analyzing your post's performance metrics, you can gain valuable insights into what's working and what's not. Use this data to improve your content creation strategy, experiment with different types of posts, and remember that analytics are just one part of the puzzle. With a little bit of effort and a lot of creativity, you can use analytics to grow your LinkedIn presence and connect with your audience in new and exciting ways.
