Updated 2026-06-22 · 5 min read

LinkedIn's 2026 algorithm rewards dwell time and 'expert' signals. These twenty templates are the structures consistently driving 100K+ impression posts across creator, founder and recruiter accounts — drop in your story and ship.

Lesson learned

Template: 'I made a {mistake} that cost me {specific number}. Here's what I learned…' Works because it leads with a concrete loss the reader wants to avoid.

Contrarian take

Template: 'Everyone says {common advice}. I disagree — here's why.' Drives comments, which the algorithm reads as expertise.

Hiring post

Template: 'We're hiring a {role}. The 3 things that matter to me: {one}, {two}, {three}. DM me if that's you.' Outperforms job-link spam by 6×.

FAQs

How often should I post on LinkedIn?+
