It's hard to say, for good coverage you need to do both, it feels like it prioritizes randomly, but I give more priority to comments, as they can potentially be seen by more people than posts.

Well, I do not know, but I know for sure that the posts are often total BS and comments are more honest and to the point. Just do both mate, they are changing their APIs so frequently, its impossible to know. They literally change some very important features monthly, they have like an agenda/calendar with feature releases somewhere, cant find it. When in doubt, just do both

In 2025, LinkedIn seems to reward meaningful comments more than standalone posts Which traveled further, spark conversations and often outperformed posts in reach.

Many people are seeing the same thing in 2025, meaningful comments on others’ posts often boost reach and profile visibility faster than posting alone

Surely hard to pinpoint which one did more but will try and check

 

[Nuduluna]

Yes — your impression aligns with what many marketers and creators are reporting in 2025: the LinkedIn algorithm seems to weight comments — especially meaningful ones — more heavily than simple post likes or passive signals

the 2025 LinkedIn algorithm heavily favors meaningful comments and
discussions over just likes, rewarding thoughtful responses that spark
conversation and increase dwell time.

Comments on big posts get more visibility than new posts. Adding value in threads usually brings more reach than posting fresh stuff.

I think comments work well, but don’t forget to share at least one meaningful post a week.

Comments for building connections. Posting for building reach. Do both consistently. Comments can drive more initial engagement.

Posting gets reach. Commenting builds community and trust. Do both, but focus on quality posts first.

 

[Annoyer13]

commenting works really well

I completely agree with the idea that commenting and posting both have their own benefits, and a balanced approach is key to building a strong online presence. It's interesting to see how algorithms like LinkedIn's are now favoring posts that spark conversations and engagement. I'd love to hear from others - what types of comments have you found to be most effective in driving engagement and building connections? Are there any specific strategies or tactics that you've used to encourage meaningful conversations in the comments section of your posts? By sharing our experiences, we can all learn from each other and refine our approaches to online engagement. Consistently posting high-quality content and engaging with others through comments can help to establish trust and credibility, which is essential for building a loyal community.

I’ve noticed comments often get more reach than posts on LinkedIn lately.

 

[Jessica D Cutler]

Commenting (especially early on popular posts) usually gives more reach than posting......

 

[rebe001]

Same here - commenting is stronger. But commenting is painful

 

[Nikolaos]

Yeah comments definitely defeat posting as long as you comment consistently.

Yeah a lot of people are noticing that, and it’s not just your impression. LinkedIn’s recent algorithm updates heavily prioritize **conversation and discussion signals**, which makes comments more powerful than simple post engagement.

Data from recent analyses shows posts that generate comments can get **5–7× more reach than posts with only likes**, and early comments (especially in the first hour) can massively boost distribution.

So the practical takeaway is that LinkedIn now rewards **real discussions rather than passive engagement**, meaning thoughtful comments on other people’s posts can sometimes get you more visibility than publishing posts yourself.

Yeah, comments seem to have more reach lately, especially thoughtful ones on popular posts.
