If you're looking to make new contacts, a personal profile is all you need.

After several successful deals, Reid built up enough capital for a new project. He brought together the best people from both PayPal and SocialNet and began working on a new job network called LinkedIn .

Today, in 2021, LinkedIn is owned by Microsoft and its CEO is Ryan Roslansky. The social network is gaining popularity, thanks to the funds invested in development. LinkedIn is becoming a social network where the main role is played by content on it.

This is exactly how most headhunters and HR professionals do it. A paid profile will give you a few extra features, such as anonymity and statistics .

LinkedIn posts and statuses
The official way to promote your articles or contributions is through posts and statuses. You write something and the article is displayed to those who are connected to you or to those who search for it using keywords. The results are usually good. I would say better than on other social networks. Organic reach is still relatively decent on LinkedIn . However, more and more new articles are published, and if you don't have a built-in community of users who will interact with you around the post, then the post will die among a pile of other mediocre statuses.

The old “Pulse” tab, where you could subscribe to articles on certain topics, is gone. It has been replaced by the paid Learning extension. Presentations can be published in the Slide-Share section.

Company page
A great way to promote your company, but with one big "but". Your posts will only be seen by "friends" of your page. So they are more or less useless for acquiring new contacts. However, for ongoing communication, this is a very relevant channel that only costs you your time. Organic reach is lower than with a personal profile. For me, a good choice in combination with promotion and inviting other users to your company page.
