5 Ways Your LinkedIn Comments Can Grow Your Business In 2025

Most people focus on their LinkedIn content but ignore the power of commenting. But your LinkedIn comments could spread your message faster than your posts. Smart founders know this, and they use it to their advantage.

LinkedIn comments are an underrated feature of the platform. Business owners post generic responses and let AI bots represent their name. They miss the point.

Join the tiny percentage of LinkedIn users who know how to make their comments multiply their efforts.

Level up your LinkedIn game with power commenting

Mirror your audience’s beliefs

Every comment needs a clear focus. Start with your target customer’s strong beliefs. What gets them fired up? What makes them nod along? Use these beliefs to shape your comments and watch profile views and engagement numbers shoot right up.

Save your best-performing posts in a spreadsheet. Look for patterns in what connects with your audience. Turn those winning ideas into short, sharp comments ready to share. Make each comment match your customer’s mindset.

Test your comments on X (Twitter) first

Short form platforms like X or Threads give your ideas instant feedback. Short, punchy tweets on your topic can make perfect LinkedIn comments. Create 10 different versions of your ideas to test out variations before using on LinkedIn. Don’t overthink, just schedule them up.

Track which get likes, replies and impressions. Use the winning lines as comments on LinkedIn posts by accounts bigger than yours. Let the data guide your strategy, not emotion or anecdotes.

Jump in fast with value

Your timing matters more than you think. The first comment on someone’s post often ranks highest. Watch for posts from accounts 4-10 times your size. Add your tested messages within minutes of them posting.

Skip the “great post!” generic comments. Instead, share a story that backs up their point. Add extra tips their audience will love. Be high energy. Make your comment feel like a valuable addition to their update.

Create mini-posts in comments

Turn comments into content you could re-use. Write powerful messages that could stand alone as posts. Test different hooks and see which ones grab attention, and keep track of what works so you’re always improving.

Save your best comments in a document along with which ones get the most likes. Turn those winners into full posts later. Double the value of everything you write when you repurpose like a pro.

Build real connections

Comments build relationships faster than posts. Find 20 accounts that share your target audience and save their activity URLs in a bookmark folder. Check it each morning for fresh posts to engage with, so they start to recognise your name and vibe.

Write responses that start conversations. Ask smart questions about their work. Share your experience solving similar problems. Slide into their DMs when the time is right. Not to sell, just to say hi. Turn comment threads into meaningful discussions that benefit everyone involved.

Make your LinkedIn comments count in 2025

Stop wasting time with basic responses. Mirror your audience’s beliefs in every comment. Test your messages on Twitter first. Be the first to add real value. Create mini-posts in comments, and build genuine connections through thoughtful responses.

Start today with five solid comments on five relevant posts. Track what works, then do more of it. Create a commenting habit and don’t skip a day. Watch your influence grow through the power of strategic commenting.
