Website decision guide

Using LinkedIn as a Supporting Presence

LinkedIn can help people understand the people and ideas behind a business. It works best when the profile, content and website all give the same clear picture of what the business does.

Make the profile match the business

Use a clear description of the business, the work it does and the audience it serves. Important contact and website links should lead to the current, relevant page.

Share useful expertise

Choose topics that help the audience understand a customer problem, decision or process. Avoid presenting ordinary work as a guaranteed result or unsupported authority claim.

Give readers a sensible next step

A post can point to a relevant guide, service page or contact path when that helps the reader continue. The destination should match the topic of the post.

Questions to consider

Does every service business need LinkedIn?

No. It is useful when the audience, decision cycle and business capacity make it a sensible channel to maintain.

Can LinkedIn replace a website?

No. A website remains the controlled place to explain the business, services and enquiry path in depth.
