Linkedin & Its Expanding Platform By Social Media Agencies

By Paula Hess


It wasn't until last year that LinkedIn gave users the ability to publish their own content on the website. Fortunately, this move proved to be a tremendous success, as 330 million users were not only given access to strong tools but made the most out of them. Of course, expansion is never a bad thing, especially when it comes to businesses which social media agencies actively use. For those who are curious as to when this expansion will come, it seems to have happened just recently.

As of recently, LinkedIn has expanded its publishing platform - a blogging center of sorts - to all English-speaking countries. What this means is that the previous statistic has expanded, adding on 230 million more people to the previous statistic. I believe that this can only benefit LinkedIn, since there are many posts that can be made about business. This is especially true when given the litany of industries that exist under the umbrella of LinkedIn.

It's easy to see why so many people are engaged on LinkedIn. Unlike Facebook, Twitter and other entities, LinkedIn is primarily focused on employment and the ability to connect to others in specific industries. However, it's easy to forget that this is still a social media website. As a result - and I am sure that social media agencies across the board will agree - there's still the focus on content that's made stronger because of this development.

It's easy to see that engagement can occur, on various networks, but only if the capabilities are present. This should always be the case, though, especially when considering that social media agencies rely on the engagement in question. Of course, in the case of LinkedIn, not every user has had access to this. To say that this been a problem would be an understatement. Fortunately, with this platform's expansion, firms the likes of fishbat may start to see heightened results.

Linked, when used well, has the potential to produce some of the most positive results in social media engagement. This is heightened by the fact that this platform has expanded over the course of time, allowing more and more people to use the site's publishing functionality. Of course, the ultimate success of this movement is hard to predict. If it is allowed the time to grow and develop, though, I am sure that LinkedIn will become an even better website to stay involved in.
