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 architecture practices starts at PKR 35,000 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 architecture practices 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| #1 | 4 posts and 3 Reels per week | Elevations, plans and finished interiors are visual first, and Pakistani architecture pages and students reshare strong work quickly. | |
| YouTube | #2 | 2 long videos per month plus 4 Shorts | Plan walkthroughs and by-law explainers are long, heavily searched, and exactly what someone about to build watches at night. |
| #4 | 3 posts per week | Older plot owners in Rawalpindi and the twin cities' building groups still ask for an architect by name there. |

LinkedIn questions from architecture practices
Is LinkedIn actually worth it for architecture practices?
Developers, contractors and society management pick firms from LinkedIn, and that is where commercial and institutional work comes from. We would rank it number 3 of the platforms worth your time in this trade, and run it at 2 project posts per week.
How often should a architect business post on LinkedIn?
2 project posts per week. That figure is set by what this trade can sustain, not by what the platform would like. Posting three times a week for a year beats posting daily for a month and then stopping.
Should architecture practices be on LinkedIn before anything else?
No. Instagram comes first for architecture practices — LinkedIn is number 3 here. It is worth adding once the first platform is steady, for the reason above.
What is the first thing a architect account gets wrong on LinkedIn?
Posting about the business instead of about the customer's problem. Clients want a 3D elevation before paying anything, then take it to a draftsman who copies the whole thing for PKR 25,000. That is what your LinkedIn posts should be answering, in 2 project posts per week
What does it cost to have someone run my LinkedIn account?
From PKR 15,000 a month with us. For architecture practices we usually recommend Growth at PKR 35,000. Your strongest asset is a plan explained on camera, which needs proper editing with drawings on screen. Growth gives four long videos, twelve Shorts and someone answering the fee kitni hai messages.
