How To Optimize LinkedIn For Better Connections & More Leads [Podcast] - Search Engine Journal

Whether you’re in B2B or B2C, LinkedIn is the place to network with colleagues, peers, mentors, and your customers.

Jessica Foster, the Senior SEO Strategist at Media Monks and Founder of Keys & Copy, joined me to talk about LinkedIn optimization tips and strategies.

We discussed enhancing your LinkedIn profile to make better connections and drive more leads.

There are not many people who are writing about LinkedIn SEO or even considering LinkedIn as a search algorithm algorithmically driven platform. –Jessica Foster, 05:06

If you can grow your following and your influence, you can generate leads through LinkedIn and not just use it for applying for jobs. –Jessica Foster, 13:40

Linkedin, by far, gets us the most ebook downloads and the most newsletter subscriptions from all of these micro-events that we’ve set up for tracking on SEJ. So LinkedIn outperforms any other social media looking at the user’s numbers and quality. –Loren Baker, 15:15
