How can your brand benefit from Linkedin Articles/LinkedinPulse?

Linkedin Pulse/Linkedin Articles is a blog platform wherein you can post writeups/notes on the Linkedin Network and share your ideas and thoughts with others.



I will write a separate piece on how individuals and professionals can use it for their own career growth. This one is about how you can grow your business, or better your brand outreach through Linkedin Articles.  It gives you an excellent opportunity to reach a wider audience, engage with your loyal clients and to boost your goodwill.

1. Attractive headlines - Their is no substitute to this. Whatever you are writing, the topic or genre could be anything, the headline has to be catchy. It has to compel readers to go through your post.

2. Integrate your Linkedin Pulse strategy with S.E.O. - Many brands make the mistake of isolating SEO and Social Media strategies. S.E.O. can be really useful for Linkedin articles. It can help with keywords which the audience is looking for. This can give social marketeers better idea on what to write about. Also make the articles more searchable. 

Through S.E.O. strategies one can also hyperlink various important links which can further boost discovery. Like you can use hyperlink for reference articles, your company blog or a product link.

3.  Draw up a Linkedin Article Calendar - If you are using this platform for business, make sure to publish regularly according to a set calendar. I always advise to draw up a calendar of up to three months.

4. Review your strategy at regular intervals - The user behavior at sites like Linkedin keeps changing. So whatever strategy you formulate, keep reviewing it at regular intervals.

5. Your Company Blog & Linkedin Pulse are different - Don't copy paste the same content or treat both platforms as same. The objectives, reach and set up are way different. While the content strategy can be similar it should never be identical.

6. Use other Social Media to amplify your article's reach - Twitter & FB channels of your Business can help  further to serve wider audience. You can also share your article with colleagues and clients who can further share it within their networks.

Linkedin users, generate over 200,000 articles a week. It is one of the major publishing platforms in the World today. Catering to professionals, it can be a great opportunity for your business  to achieve specific goals.

 I have tried to cover a few pointers in this article, if you have anything to add, do share in the comment section below.

Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate? If you’re someone who prides themselves on “cutting people off” or keeping a tight circle, you might believe it’s a skill—a way to protect yourself from betrayal, hurt, or unnecessary drama. I get it. I’ve been there, too. But here’s the thing: this ability to isolate yourself is not as empowering as it may seem. In fact, i...

Trail of Mohammad Ajmal Amir Kasab – A joke!

Who do you trial? Who does this? What is this all about? Is this playing with justice or is it just a mockery of the whole thing? Well, there are lots of questions and I find very less of answers to all these. Mohammad Ajmal Amir Kasab is the only survivor from the pack of Pakistani terrorists who attacked Mumbai on November 26, 2008 (better known as 26/11). He was captured while he was on a rampage killing scores of people and injuring hundreds, on that dreadful night in Mumbai. There was a lot of fuss in the last few months about him being a Pakistani or his age to be prosecuted in an adult court or with his captivity. Recently, the long awaited trial started and everyone is waiting to see what the court will decide on his fate. Ridiculous! What is there to decide? Hang him!! Simple… Well, I do not want to hang him without getting all the information from him and only after proving that the attackers were all from Pakistan and the whole incident was built up by the Pakistani Army, Go...

A tale of 1 country: Brothers in arms

I stand at my balcony and watch the unfortunate (no not unfortunate) events unfold 2 floors down. Dadi (grandmother) has fallen to the ground and is crying, my mother has a face of steel, its frozen into a blank stare; I know this state, I have seen it before, she is controlling herself showing a brave and proud wife to the world. She is helping dadi. Uncle keeps pointing past the gate and is shouting something at dada (grandfather). Dada has just locked the gate and is walking back to the house. Past the gate I can see a group of people all clad in white, surrounding something lying on the ground covered with a white cloth. My governess Shobhadi stands next to me holding me, afraid that I'll run downstairs into the scene unfolding. She and and the servants have been given strict orders that I can not be allowed downstairs. Dada thinks I do not understand what is happening, he thinks I cannot comprehend what is going on, but I do. The year is 19...
