I just hit over 131,787 impressions on LinkedIn, and guess what? The algorithm still feels off. It's easy to think your posts aren't making an impact if you're not seeing a ton of likes or comments.

↳ 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭: Likes and comments might seem important, but the real value lies in how many people are actually seeing your posts.
↳ 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐊𝐞𝐲: LinkedIn rewards those who keep showing up. Posting regularly with good content helps you stay on people’s radar, even when engagement feels low.
↳ 𝐐𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐎𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐐𝐮𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐲: Sometimes, it’s the posts that don’t get a lot of attention that end up making the biggest impact. It’s about who’s watching, even if they don’t interact.

So, if your posts aren’t getting the likes and comments you expected, don’t worry about it. Focus on staying consistent, creating quality content, and looking at the bigger picture.
