  5. Effective Use of Hashtags: LinkedIn suggests five hashtags related to your areas of interest. Pick them wisely to increase the discoverability of your content.
  6. Utilize Video Content: As you know, video is HOT on all the social platforms. LinkedIn has upped their game in this area big time! LinkedIn Live and LinkedIn Stories are excellent tools for sharing your expertise in an engaging format. Here's a little more information about each tool.LinkedIn Live is the platform's live video broadcasting service. It allows users to stream live video content to their LinkedIn network, thus facilitating real-time engagement with their audience. The service is particularly useful for sharing industry insights, conducting interviews, hosting Q&A sessions, or giving behind-the-scenes looks at your operations.LinkedIn Stories is a feature that allows users to share short video and photo content with their LinkedIn network. Similar to other social media platforms, LinkedIn Stories appear at the top of the mobile app's home page and disappear after 24 hours.  LinkedIn Stories is a great way to showcase your professional personality, share insights, and increase engagement with your network.

LinkedIn Creator Mode is a fantastic tool to bolster your presence on this professional networking platform. It provides an opportunity to build a strong personal brand, increase your visibility, and connect with like-minded professionals.
