This blog post delves into the type of content that propelled my LinkedIn following to 25K. Previously, I celebrated reaching 15K followers by detailing the strategies contributing to that milestone. In this post, I am sharing a different perspective on my journey, focusing on the key types of LinkedIn content that resonated with my audience. I hope readers find these insights valuable and inspiring for their own LinkedIn growth.
As my LinkedIn following surpassed the 25K mark, I took a moment to reflect on my journey by revisiting my past posts. While I have aimed for consistency with about one post per week, I acknowledge occasional interruptions. Nonetheless, maintaining a regular upload schedule has proven to be crucial on the LinkedIn platform. Herein, I outline the three main categories of posts I have shared:
1. Blog-Related Posts
Since launching my blog, I have actively sought contributions from university students. Providing a platform for their thoughts, concerns, and aspirations has been incredibly rewarding. Contributions like Sarah's insights on knowledge graphs and Charbel's exploration of double majors, to cite a few, have enlightened my blog subscribers and LinkedIn followers, offering them valuable lessons.
2. Posts With a Personal Touch
I have injected personal reflections into several posts, discussing topics like the importance of networking, family, innovation, teaching, and the impact of positivity. These authentic narratives have resonated deeply with my followers, consistently garnering significant engagement. I plan to continue sharing more of these personal perspectives in the future.
3. LLMs-Related Posts
Given the transformative impact of Large Language Models (LLMs) in technology, I have dedicated posts to discussing the latest developments in LLMs. Additionally, updates on the AIEVA project, which I initiated with a group of brilliant students at LAU, have sparked interest and discussion within my network.
My LinkedIn journey has been rewarding, pushing me to expand my storytelling abilities. While the growth in follower count remains uncertain, one thing is certain: consistent posting enhances the visibility of my content in the eyes of the LinkedIn algorithm!
