are you in control of your linkedin feed or is the algorithm? it's frustrating, right? you open linkedin hoping to find posts that actually add value. you want to read authentic thoughts, support people building in public. but instead, you get the same recycled takes and obvious ai-generated content. the algorithm doesn't know what you want as well as you do. so we built a chrome extension that lets you take control back. how it works: 1/ add keywords you want to avoid 2/ choose to blur or hide those posts your feed shows what you actually want to see pretty straightforward. want to try it? comment "interested" and i'll send you the link.

Blurring the unwanted post? Its a superpower. How often does this happen that you are bombarded with posts which you don't want to see on your feed? - 'Unfollowing' is not the option always. Because we sometimes may like posts by the same author on specific topics but not the rest. There must be a reason we followed someone at the first place. So? Filtering by the keywords make sense. But wait, exclusion or Inclusion of keywords? - Obviously you would be open to new ideas and posts. Hence, Inclusion is not that great idea. You will have to add countless keywords- Headache! - Rather, exclusion of keywords does the job. With this tool, you can blur the posts which has keywords you don't want to see the posts about. Sachi Gupta and ThinklyLabs have solved it for us. Highly recommended. Do check today. 🙂

You don’t need more followers — you need people to listen. Most creators are screaming for attention while the real connection is happening quietly, one honest answer at a time. That’s where AEO comes in — Answer Engine Optimization. It’s not about chasing keywords anymore. It’s about writing content that answers what people are really asking. When your message feels like a coffee chat, not a pitch, people stay. When they stay, they share. And when they share, you grow. That’s the Coffee Method. It’s how I approach everything I write — from blog posts to newsletters — and it’s the reason my content keeps working long after I hit publish. I wrote about how this shift is reshaping visibility and why trust is the new urgency. 👉 Read the full post here: link to the blog in the first comment

You may still think LinkedIn is a black box. And that we are all doomed because the algorithm doesn't push your content. I don't think it's all that grim haha Just finished reading the Q3 LinkedIn algorithm report by Will McTighe and Chris Donnelly. It confirmed everything I've been teaching my clients about growing on LinkedIn. Here are my 5 highlights: 1. Yes, it isn't easy to grow on LinkedIn - the reach is down across the board and there are more people posting. 👉 You need to write expertise-led, opinionated and clear content to stand out. 2. Sharing pictures of you may feel cringe initially, but it builds trust. 👉 Don't overthink posting a selfie or picture of you with the post. This just lets people see who is behind the words and trust you more over time. 3. "10 tips for writing a blog post" carousels won't cut it anymore. You need to add storytelling and your expertise. 👉 Carousels are the best-performing content type. But they are built differently now, and can't be generic anymore. Add your opinion. Start with a story. 4. Longer posts (1250-3000 characters) with good formatting (plenty of whitespace and line breaks) perform better than short ones. 👉 Write as you speak. Always. Conversational, clear language wins over AI written corporate speak. 5. Personal Story hooks perform the best. 👉 This again highlights how people CRAVE personal connection, experience based non-generic content. Need I say more? :D And many many more takeaways that you can find in the report 🙏

Forget perfect, AI-generated posts. Messy, real stories are winning on LinkedIn right now. Let me show you how…! I see it every day. The feed is packed with polished, clickbait content. Same hooks. Same templates. Same “viral” formulas. But here’s what nobody talks about-people are tired of it. The BS radar is in overdrive. What’s working now? Human. Unfiltered. Raw. Posts that sound like you’re talking to a friend, not pitching an ebook. Let’s break down what actually moves the needle (from someone who has spent hours every single day for 2 years testing everything): - Positioning beats consistency. You can post daily, but if your content doesn’t show why you matter, you’re invisible. - Authority signals matter. Show how you know what you know. Share your story, not just your tips. - Forget the “perfect hook.” The best posts now are messy, personal, and honest. Not 8-word headlines from a GPT. Here’s what I see top creators do: 1. They build trust by being real-sharing their wins AND their failures. 2. They engage with the right people, not just anyone. Your network shapes who sees your stuff. 3. They position themselves as the go-to in their niche, not by shouting, but by showing. You don’t need a fancy title or a viral cheat code. You need to show up as a human with a point of view. The old playbook is dead. The new one? Be yourself, loudly. Tired of blending in? Try sharing something messy, something real, something you’d actually say in person. Watch what happens. Let’s talk about what’s working for you. Drop a message.

I don’t do content. I build links! I don’t post for the sake of posting. I have a system! I’ve learned how every platform triggers something else for my business: - Every time I post a video on YouTube. I get new followers on LinkedIn. - Every time I post on LinkedIn. My website traffic goes up. - Every time I post on Reddit. People google search my name. Most people call this a funnel. I don’t. I call it LINKS. Every action connects to the next one. Connected LINKS = SYSTEM. Easy! So the question isn’t “What should I post?” It’s always about: What do I want people to do after they see it? Every stop someone makes on my profile, my page, or my content should lead somewhere: - Profile view to click website. - Website visit to book a call. - Post view to search name. - YouTube video to follow on LinkedIn. The end goal is simple: - BOOK A CALL. But between awareness and that click, there are dozens of small chances to lose or win people. That’s where clarity and alignment turn into leverage. Most creators post content. I post actions 👀 If you’re not checking where people come from and where they go next, you’re not building a system. You’re guessing! Data isn’t about metrics. It’s proof the links are working.

I spent 6 months posting on LinkedIn before I realized I was optimizing for the wrong thing. Chasing likes and followers felt productive. But our best client lead? It came from a post with 47 views. The post detailed how we automated our video production workflow using AI. No fancy graphics. No viral hook. Just specific insights from actually solving a problem. That's when it clicked: authority isn't built on reach: it's built on relevance. So we shifted our content strategy: - Share specific processes, not generic advice - Include real numbers from our projects - Focus on one valuable insight per post - Stop worrying about engagement rates The result? Fewer likes, but better conversations. And the people who engage are the ones who actually need what we offer. Vanity metrics are seductive. But they don't pay the bills. What matters more to you: a viral post or one that starts the right conversation? ---- Struggling with consistent LinkedIn posting? We're building Authenticly (waitlist open, check My website) to help.
