Then we can ask ourselves, how to take advantage of the algorithm?

LinkedIn members spend 3x more time watching video ads than with statics sponsored content (photos, text, etc.)

Company page videos generate 5x more engagement than with other types of content.

 There are three types of LinkedIn video that can be created;

1) The embedded videos, basically share a link with a video from another video-hosting platform like YouTube. This strategy work really well but is not the best. 

2) The LinkedIn “native video”, it is a type of video that you upload directly to the LinkedIn platform, this type of video auto plays in-feed so there is even more chance to grab attention from people. It is proved that this kind of videos is far more powerful than the embedded videos.

 

3) LinkedIn video ads are sponsored company videos that appear in the LinkedIn feed. Video ad campaigns have more potential to increase brand awareness and lead generation since they are typically served to a more targeted audience.
