I have posted a few comments on this topic. Our networks are increasingly bombarded with the same "viral" content.
LinkedIn is no exception, I have noticed a huge increase over the last 12 months in non-business related content.
If we are friends I am happy to see this content on Facebook, but not here.
Some simple LinkedIn content tips:
- If it's an adorable story about how your child graduated pre-school - DON'T POST
- A story on how you beat the After New Years bulge - DON'T POST
- If it's a story about someone's winning the battle with Cancer - DON'T POST (While this is inspiring and heartwarming, I'm at work!)
- The latest political outrage of the day? - DON'T POST
- A "industry- related" story which is over a month old , just because you need some "new" content to share - DON'T POST
My stance this year will be if you post non business related content on LinkedIn I will unfollow you from my feed, one strike and you're out.
I might miss a few great updates but I will also filter out the large amount of crap clogging my feed.
