How does LinkedIn decide who sees a post?
LinkedIn shows a post to a slice of your network first, then expands it based on comments longer than one word and how long people stay on the post. Dwell time is the lever, which is why document carousels and long text posts beat everything else. Outbound links get held back, so put the link in the first comment. Posts keep circulating for two or three days, far longer than any other platform, and thoughtful comments you leave on other people's posts reach as many people as your own posts do.
Formats, lengths, caption limits and the best posting windows in Pakistan Standard Time are the same whatever trade you are in, so they live in one place rather than being repeated on every guide.
LinkedIn formats, posting times and monetisation in Pakistan →What we do on LinkedIn every month
If you would rather not do the above yourself, this is exactly what we take off you. Managed LinkedIn for app development agencies starts at from PKR 25,000 a month.
- 01Rewrite your headline, About section and banner so a recruiter or a foreign client understands what you do in five seconds
- 02Write and publish 8–12 posts a month in your own voice, drawn from one 20-minute call a month where you just talk
- 03Build 2 document carousels a month — still the format with the most reach on this platform
- 04Comment properly on 20–30 relevant posts a month from your account, because that reach often beats your own posts
- 05Turn a long video you already recorded into a native LinkedIn cut under 2 minutes with burnt-in subtitles
- 06Keep the company page posting so the profile does not look abandoned when a prospect checks it after a call
- 07Report on profile views, search appearances and connection requests from decision-makers — not on likes
Should app development agencies be anywhere else?
LinkedIn first. After it is running steadily, these are the next platforms worth your time in this trade — in this order.
| Platform | Priority | How often | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| YouTube | #2 | 2 videos per month plus 4 Shorts | 'App banwani hai' is a research journey, and a costing video answers the question everyone is too embarrassed to ask, which brings serious buyers only. |
| #3 | 4 Reels per week | Screen-recording Reels of a UI coming together are quietly addictive and reach founders and designers who then send the enquiry. | |
| #4 | 3 posts per week plus group answers | Rawalpindi business owners still search and message on Facebook, and business groups are full of people asking who can build an app. |
