    It depends on the niche
    LinkedIn is going to be hopeless if you are a beauty guru
    but perfect if you are selling business services

    Sarah hit it spot on, it really depends on your niche. Now if your goal is to spam people, then stay away from Linkedin, there is already too much spam there lol.

    I also agree that it depends on the niche. For me, Facebook and Twitter have been more successful.

    It depends on what your content is. I agree with the others that already left a comment here. LinkedIn is for professionals, businesses, CEOs and the likes groups there are a bit picky about what you can post on groups.

    If you have a strong network and following on linkedin posting articles relative to your network will absolutely be successful and get you more exposure. It depends on what your goal is and what is your network reach... Based on your question I would assume you may not be set up to be successful on linkedin right now..

    It would always come down to what kind of content you are marketing. I mostly see business services or tools being marketed through LinkedIn.

    You might think that is only B2B on LinkedIn, but some content that you wouldn't normally expect will gain traction there.

    My advice would be to try it out, see if it works, and then format your social media strategy based on the data you receive after a few months.

    LinkedIn is a professional and business networking site. As Sarah has said business related niche will work great.

    Just like any other social media, it will mostly depend on how effective is your message and promotion. Even if you have a great social media presence, it won't be for anything without an effective and targeted ad.

    Please explain why..
    posts like this add no value whatsoever unless you explain the reason behind your thinking.

    Please explain WHY YOU BELIEVE that LinedIn is a good tool for a beginner but NOT a good tool for an advanced user?

    It would seem to me that it is either good for BOTH or good for NEITHER.

    Because it is a professional platform hence helpful for the beginners to get clients and also to clarify their doubts.I doesn't mean that it is not good for an advanced user.
