**Schedule posts**
Regular content is key on LinkedIn’s feed only allows a small portion of your updates to be seen, around 20% supposedly. The less you post, the less your connections see. The less your contacts see, the less they will be inclined to click on your profile. Posting as much as relevant and informative posts that make you a worthy connection.
Scheduling updates means regular content that can be planned in advance. If you don’t have the opportunity to log in everyday you can spend a small amount of time planning ahead, which saves a lot of time and hassle.
**Welcome new connections**
The main purpose of LinkedIn. To **connect and work **with others. But a lot of us are guilty of not really utilizing this to the full. Or perhaps utilizing this too much, and adding anyone and everyone. New connections should be someone you know really. Continuing networking you have started in the real world, either face to face or over the phone. Make the jump to connect with them, and actually make conversation.
Again, the more people’s profiles you look at to ensure you know them, the more likely you are to receive a click back. Which in turn increases your ranking. So don’t be scared to properly view someone profile before you connect with them. And always view as you, not as an anonymous viewer. Nobody appreciates it, and it will not help your ranking in the slightest.
**Interact with relevant posts**
You don’t necessarily just need an event to comment on posts. There are a huge amount of opportunities for LinkedIn to *interact* with others. Congratulate connections on new roles as well as work anniversaries. Congratulate that team who have posted that they are having a great week. Refer to others if you see a post asking for help, and you know just the guy. If you read pulse articles, take the time to write what you thought.
You never know how many other people may agree with your point of view and want to connect. Or if you find a certain person’s posts are always valuable, ask to connect yourself. If they have influence, then they may influence your ranking too. If you want people to notice you, and visit your profile to increase your ranking on LinkedIn, then you need to take the time to interact.
**Update your profile**
Keeping your profile up to date means that your profile can provide viewers with relevant and current information about what you do and for whome, you work. It means that others will be curious to check out your profile and wants to see your updates, so more visits to your profile mean more rankings.
However, don’t take advantage of this tactic too much. If it appears you are updating your content every day, then others may not feel as inclined to click on it, rendering it worthless for improving your ranking.
**Publish articles**
