Networking and Marketing Made Simple What Should You Have In Your LinkedIn Featured Content Section
What’s the first thing people do after they check out your LinkedIn profile?
They look for proof… and a next step.
That’s exactly what your Featured Section should do.
But most professionals either leave it empty or fill it with random links that don’t move the needle.
If you want your profile to actually convert profile views into conversations, leads, and clients, your Featured section needs to be intentional.
Here’s what should be in it:
• Your website
- A clear place for people to learn more about you, your services, and how you help.
• Your LinkedIn newsletter
- This builds authority and keeps you top of mind with consistent, value-driven content.
• A lead magnet
- Something valuable that solves a specific problem for your audience in exchange for their email.
This is how you turn visibility into an owned audience.
When these three pieces are working together, your profile stops being just a digital résumé… and starts becoming a lead generation asset.
Most people focus on getting more views.
The real question is: what happens after someone views your profile?
If your Featured Section isn’t guiding them somewhere meaningful, you’re leaving opportunities on the table.
Take a look at yours… does it lead people to the next step?
