So I have a Linkedin company page for each of my main sites.

Now I want to create a few for some bloggers I have. One is a humor blog, the other is a blog that posts a little bit of everything, and a little bit of nothing. I can automate the sharing, and I like to have a presence everywhere, plus the link in website field.

But I wonder, is it worth it? Is it safe? I mean, the pages on Linkedin are supposed to be "Company pages." My humor blogger is no company, my random posts blogger is no company. Would Linkedin sooner or later just delete the pages because they're not actually a company or something?

I just don't want to take the time to create the pages and upload photos/descriptions and share all previous posts and set up the autosharing, if the chances are good Linkedin will remove my pages shortly after.

I need someone who knows Linkedin to give me... the green or red light :D

Thanks
 
Okay, now I'm having real doubts. I looked for a few of the top humor blogs online and looked to see if they have Linkedin company pages. And even the ones that did, they didn't post crazy funny shit on it, it's was more business-oriented type posts with a sprinkle of light comedy here and there.

LinkedIn is for business, I have page for blogs, I just invented a company name and make up posts about the niche.
 
You can do it like @blogzandstuff said but it's a fine line for professionals. You can tie it together but market it geared to the type and class of readers. So hit it from another angle, not your current one

Yeah I'm just gonna make the pages and see how it goes. I already have pages for my main websites, which could be considered businesses I guess.

The pages I'm making now are for little bloggers, and the pages will pretty much be autoposting pages, where I just autopost content. But not like 10 posts per day, more like 1-2 posts per day max.

We'll see how it goes. Thanks :)
 
I m suggesting you that don't try to make business profiles on Linkedin. I will not work just for creating back links by posting articles over there. I don't know why people's are going to creating business profiles on professional sites just for getting backlinks for their site. Linkedin is a professional platforms for business company's and employment prospective. Not just for creating a fan-page or just a profile linked to your website.

I made a page for one of my websites a week ago. I posted 10 posts on it and left it. I included many hashtags in all posts. A few days later someone came to my site and bought 3 things, about $12 dollars total. Then a day later I saw they liked my Linkedin posts, so they found me through Linkedin.

I play for presence, to have a presence everywhere. Backlinks, ********, nofollow, seo, penis, whatever, it's a plus or minus. I just want to have a presence. If I ran out of... regular places to create presences on, I'd go anywhere, porn sites, fucking cannibalism sites, I don't give a shit, I just want my sites to exist everywhere I can put them on, taking up that sweet sweet internet real estate. Even if all I get is the low hanging fruit, well, I'm not hungry so I'm good. Low hanging fruit's still fruit, keep me well fed :)
 
LinkedIn knows spammers and 3rd party apps so, sooner or later you will get flagged.
I tried a lot of things, they get you eventually. So, better think of some other places where to grow. For good.

Yeah but Linkedin knows about 3rd party apps, they're not against their TOS to use. If they were they wouldn't exist. I mean, they would but not using tokens that Linkedin provides, they'd be standalone bots and stuff like that.

And I don't plan on spamming exactly. I mean, it's a gray area. I won't spam any members or groups or pages, I won't post too much at all, I won't overkill it with hashtags, I'll just exist on the sidelines under the radar and have a presence. I'm not even worried about 3rd party apps and all that, I'm mostly worried they remove my pages because of the content I'm posting, like my Humor page where I'll be posting funny memes, or my blog that has all sorts of content on it, from movie reviews to recipes to various tutorials bla bla bla.

And... I'm creating these few pages on a fake Linkedin account, so there's also that :D
 
Fake profile is a no-no, I had a profile that blew up with number of connections/followers and that's when they asked for an ID confirmation. So, I don't plan on going there again. Good luck to you! :)

I've had this profile for about 5 years now. I don't really plan on growing it, nor do I plan on growing the pages I'm creating under it.

That said, you think it would be smart to create another fake profile and make it admin of all the pages I'm creating? Just in case my main fake profile gets banned or something, I don't lose the pages.

You already know it would. But, if LinkedIn connects the dots, all of "your" accounts could get into trouble. Seriously, best of luck.
