Blogging + LinkedIn: A Marriage of Visibility (and the Occasional Miscommunication)

Blogging + LinkedIn: A Marriage of Visibility (and the Occasional Miscommunication)

When your blog and LinkedIn content finally start working together — that’s when your brand stops whispering and starts singing.

We talk a lot about content strategy. But what we don’t talk about enough is how your blog and LinkedIn can become your power couple — or your content chaos creators — depending on how they communicate.

Let’s break down how these two platforms can thrive together… and what to do when they need a little content therapy.


💡 Why This Relationship Works

  • Blogging builds depth, SEO power, and a home base for your ideas.

  • LinkedIn builds conversations, connections, and visibility now. Together? You can create lead-generating content that works across multiple formats — from storytelling to strategy.


🔁 How to Repurpose Blog Content on LinkedIn

Here’s one blog post, turned into six LinkedIn-ready formats:

  1. Carousel post with the blog’s core tips

  2. Short, opinion-driven post based on the blog’s conclusion

  3. A LinkedIn poll tied to the blog’s theme

  4. LinkedIn newsletter teaser for the blog

  5. “Hot take” text post based on a single blog stat

  6. Video summary or quote clip (if recorded)

Always link back to your blog post — and give people a reason to click.


🚩 Red Flags: When the Blog & LinkedIn Aren’t Aligned

Here are some common issues — and how to fix them:

🔹 Problem: Your LinkedIn posts get traction, but your blog has no traffic What it means: You didn’t link effectively — or the blog feels like extra homework What to do: Add curiosity and value. Don’t bury the link — make it feel essential to click.

🔹 Problem: Your blog tone is formal, but your LinkedIn tone is casual What it means: You’re copy-pasting instead of adapting to the platform What to do: Rewrite for conversation. Talk to people, not algorithms.

🔹 Problem: There’s no clear connection between your blog and LinkedIn posts What it means: Your content calendar isn’t aligned What to do: Choose one monthly theme and develop it across both platforms with different angles and depth.


🧰 Tools to Help You Manage It All

  • Google Sheets or Trello for content planning

  • Grammarly or ChatGPT to rewrite tone for LinkedIn

  • Canva or Canva Docs for carousels

  • Bitly or Pretty Links to track blog clicks from LinkedIn
