How do you see your top performing posts on LinkedIn?

In your creator analytics. Open your profile, click Show all under Analytics, then Content analytics. Pick a date range from the past 7 to 365 days and choose Impressions or Engagements. The Top performing posts section ranks your posts by that number, and Show more lists the rest.

Can you see your top posts in the LinkedIn app?

Yes, by the same path. Tap your photo, then your photo again, then Show all under Analytics, then Overview and Content analytics. Choose the dates and Impressions or Engagements, and Top performing posts ranks them the same way as on a computer.

Why is your newest post missing from the list?

LinkedIn's help page says the list is built from data as of yesterday, so a post from this morning appears tomorrow. The ranking also counts only what happened inside the dates you picked, so widen the range if an older post seems to be missing.

What is the Most recent posts performance table?

A newer table in creator analytics that shows each recent post with its lifetime totals and exports to a spreadsheet. As of October 2026, LinkedIn says it is still rolling out and works on a computer only. What each number in it means is in how to read your LinkedIn analytics.

How do you find top performing posts by other people on LinkedIn?

Search the topic and sort what comes back. Type a keyword in LinkedIn's search bar, choose See all results, then the Posts tab. The filters include Sort by, Date posted, Content type and From member. LinkedIn's help page lists no filter for likes or views, so you judge the numbers by eye.

Can you sort LinkedIn posts by likes?

Not in search, as far as LinkedIn's help page shows. It lists Sort by, Date posted, Content type and filters by member, company and industry for posts, and no filter for likes, comments or views. So open the results and compare the counts under each post by eye.

Where else can you see someone's best posts?

On their profile, under Activity, which lists their recent posts with the reactions and comments on each. Your own feed can also switch from Top to Recent, which shows posts from people you follow in time order, without LinkedIn's sorting.

How do you keep track of a few creators' best posts?

In innernote, Radar shows the recent posts of the LinkedIn creators you choose to watch, with the likes and comments on each, in one place. Write from this starts a post of your own that reacts to one, in your voice. For the subjects people are talking about this week, read LinkedIn trending topics.

What should you do with your top performing posts?

Find what they share, then write more of it. Rank your posts by engagements over a year, take the top ten, and note the subject, the opening line and the format of each. Two or three patterns usually show. Write new posts in those patterns, with new stories, so the next one is not a copy.

For each of your top ten posts

Four things to write down

  • Subject

    What it was about

    The problem, the story or the opinion.

  • Opening

    The first line

    What made people tap see more.

  • Format

    How it was built

    Text, image, video or document.

  • Response

    What people said

    The questions in the comments.

Our own method.

Sort by engagements as well as impressions. A post seen by many and answered by few was carried by reach. A post that drew comments from a small audience is the one to repeat, and the questions in its comments are your next posts.

How do you write more posts like your best ones?

Let a tool that knows your history do the writing. innernote remembers everything you have published and writes each new post in your own voice, so a pattern that worked comes back with a new story, never as a copy. You bring the idea, in a line or two, and innernote writes the post.

innernote is the #1 tool for turning what works on LinkedIn into posts of your own, written in your voice.

innernote learns how you write from your own posts and a short interview. Because it remembers what you have posted, a new post follows a pattern that worked without repeating the post itself. It cleans each draft so it does not read as AI, and Plan fills your posting days.
