LinkedIn Collaborative Articles - one of my favorite ❤️ new features of 2023. It is AI-generated and allows members to contribute, be seen, and even get a smidge of recognition. What specifically do I like about them? ✅ Chance to be more visible around your area of focus or expertise ✅ Easily find and explore topics that you can use for other content - it can spur your thinking. ✅ Chance to take the pressure off of feeling like you must always create new content. Instead, focus on contributing and commenting. ✅ Be found via LinkedIn or Google Search. Yes, the articles are SEO-friendly. ✅ Expand your network. Many LinkedIn members have reached out to me after reading my comments. Some have connected too because we are interested in like content. ✅ Be recognized as a "Top Community Voice" on your topic or topics. ✅ Feature your various top voice badges on the Introduction Card of your profile. In the video below ⬇️, I demonstrate how to switch them. I change mine often. ✅ Have your profile and content displayed as a top contributor for specific articles within the Collab articles directory. What do YOU like about them? Have you tried them yet? I will add the directory in the comments. --------------------------------------------- This post is in honor of Mark Williams who always keeps me thinking! Always love his podcast and viewpoints, even when different. Also, THANK YOU to Sohyung Kang Leah Shin.

I like the fact the community can react to your comments, and add their own. Plus the character limit forces you to be succinct in your responses.

Great post Sandra. As a LinkedIn Learning instructor we were part of the early testing for this program. I agree, lots of benefits.

Hey Sandra! I couldn't agree more with your post. LinkedIn Collaborative Articles are a total game-changer! They give you a chance to shine in your area of expertise and get noticed by others. One thing I love about them is that they take off the pressure of constantly creating new content. Instead, you can focus on engaging with others and sharing your insights. And guess what? These articles are SEO-friendly, so they can boost your visibility on both LinkedIn and Google search. It's an amazing way to grow your network and be recognized as a top contributor. By the way, have you given them a try yet? You'll love it!

I've recently started contributing to collaborative articles focused on business communication and email management 📨. It's a great way to share insights with my network, at a fraction of the effort needed to create and maintain a content calendar. Thanks for sharing, Sandra Long!
