Should I submit the same blog post on Linkedin as an article with permalink?

Hello All,

I just want to know that is it the right way in SEO to submit the same blog post as an article on Linkedin or other social sites or article sites.

Hi Bimal,

I understand that you wish to understand how to use an existing good blog content on LinkedIn. Whether to use it completely as an article on LinkedIn or link to your blog or some content with 'read more' link pointing to the blog.

Linkedin can be a good place to promote relevant content as there are real people using it and that too being a social network, it can help promote the content to the more similar audience on the article itself.

Advantages

• Your profile and previous articles get highlighted, increasing the chances that people will read more than just the 1 article. Your own presence and branding gets a boost.
• There are several opportunities that people who liked your article once, will get to see more of your content later, they can also follow you.
• Your reach to potential targets is increased.

Possible Disadvantages

• The articles will face competition from other content, and they might get lost if not backed by LinkedIn marketing strategy for these articles.
• Your readership might remain on LinkedIn and if you don’t incentivize them to visit your website.

DUPLICATE CONTENT OR NOT:
I have done my research and there are many articles which are published both on websites and LinkedIn without getting penalized. Preferably linking them via a permalink is a good solution for Google to realize that the content is coming from same person/ website/ company/brand.

I hope this helps and let me know if you have further queries.

Regards,

Vijay

Posting on Linkedin won't directly affect your SEO or rankings. However, if you have a relevant blog post it is a good idea to share it with relevent hashtags to generate more referral traffic to your website.

Hi, just add a short description with the link, and include hashtags of the topic. ¿Is this what you were asking?
