Besides the background music volume issue this video is a robust job like for the first time. Nice 👌

If your first is a perfect imperfection, don't change much.

Ahah nice one! But If definitely recommend to go deeper than the typical contributions on collab articles 😅

glad you liked it! You are correct, it would be much smarter to invest time in writing high value posts, rather than chasing that temporary badge

ego is definitely what drives engagement here - but let's face it, Linkedin is mostly about ego and self promotion

Happy to hear it was helpful

Happy you find this useful!

thank you!

Thank you!

thank you so much for the feedback, I definitely will! It's my first youtube video, and I'll definitely lower the volume in the next video!

Spot on Vanessa! Indeed people will get impressed because most of them won't ever know how that badge was acquired - and as I say in my video, I think that business owners might be the only people who will tangibly benefit from this badge. I'm curious, did you see any uplift in your business since you earned the badge?

@@JeremieGuedj I haven’t earned it yet! 😔I'm sorry I gave you the impression that I have it. But I’ve been invited to write in a lot of those articles and through your video now I can get a better understanding of what to do to improve my chances of getting top voice.

Thank you for the kind feedback! I have 2 video files, one from the camera, and one from the screen recorder, then am using Davinci Resolve as editing software, with a "picture in picture" addon to to put my face in a circular frame

Thank you, what an honor 🤩

I’m honored, thanks!

glad it helped!

Thank you - and definitely agree regarding the volume, already fixed in the following videos :)

Can you share some stats on your account? How old is your account and how many connections do you have? It seems like LinkedIn is restricting the ability to contribute for accounts below a certain threshold

Ahah i’m so sorry about that, a lot of viewers complained 🙈 I’m really considering uploading a “no music” version of that video

Thanks for the kind words

Based on the amount of really cheesy and generic contributions i’ve seen, I’d say that 50%? of them are made by chatGPT

Here’s what linkedin is saying: “LinkedIn identifies members who are likely to be experts in a certain topic based on their work experience, skills proficiency, and prior engagement on the platform. They must also meet high trust and quality standards by adhering to LinkedIn’s User Agreement and Professional Community Policies, and their contributions must remain relevant, original, and additive.” So it’s likely is a mix of experiences + engagement that you need to build up

thanks! I’m using the Rode VideoMic NTG

No, you can reply to any number of subcategories you want

so sorry to hear that :/ I don’t recommend wasting time on this badge, but rather focus your energy elsewhere

Shouldn’t be an issue, you can earn multiple badges and control which to display on your profile

Thank you for the information @@JeremieGuedj

​@@JeremieGuedjLinkedin contribution, add perspective option is not available in my Eid articles.

you might need to have a longer period of being active on LinkeIn

Check out this list: www.linkedin.com/pulse/topics/browse/a

it actually does :)

Glad to hear you got value out of it

Yes, there you go: www.linkedin.com/pulse/topics/browse/a

Thank you! Yep I’ve learned the lesson ahah, next videos are quieter

you might not meet the eligibility that Linkedin has set, however they didn’t publish what that criteria is, it could be experience, engagement level on linkedin, etc

thanks for your honest feedback! ahah yes many people complained about the music, it’s my first video and I learned the lesson for the next one!

what field are you in?

@@JeremieGuedj I have done Hvac internship after diploma in mechanical engineering now in (Mep hvac) Aec construction industry working for air conditioning projects site and design. So hvac engineer.

How many connections do you have on LinkedIn? How old is your account?

Thanks a lot! I really appreciate the kind word, it's giving me motivation to keep working on videos

Hey @JeremieGuedj, yeah, I started my KZfaq channel back in 2019. I took a break at some point because I received a strike. Now, I've come to realize that hurdles are just a part of our journey. 💪🎥 #KZfaqJourney

I wish you the best of success in your journey to grow your channel!

Thanks a lot for the kind comment, i’m so glad it provided value

did you ever get content reported and/or removed?

@@JeremieGuedj no but I m not as much active before 10days, now I m a active user i drop posts 3/per day on groups and repost. How much time to get this feature?

it might require longer period of proven activity for the algorithm to open the possibility to contribute to articles. Have you seen any change since you posted your comment?

@@JeremieGuedj still i the contribution option is not showing for my profile. What can I do?

I thought about it, but I kinda feel that at this point every single video on youtube says that, and i’m not sure people can/need to be nudged to do so and will subscribe if they want to see more of a youtuber’s content curious to hear you take on this

Hi! It might be related to your account stats: 1. How many connections do you have? 2. How often to you post or comment? 3. How old is you LinkedIn account?

well, that’s the annoying thing, there’s no way to get it permanently. In order to always have it you need to continuously contribute to the collaborative articles, which is exactly one of the points I cover in the video in regard to why I don’t recommend wasting time on it

@@JeremieGuedj I got the badge today. If need to contribute continuously then I have a plan. The plan is I got the badge today, now next 60 days I won't contribute in any article but when it will be vanish from my profile I will start contributing and I'll get the badge again then I will stop contributing for 60 days. The process will be applied again and again.

@@JeremieGuedj it took 9 contributions in my case.

If it is important for you to keep it - I strongly recommend to not wait until the badge is taken away, there could be different criteria for earning, as opposed to keeping it you would be better off to have a weekly reminder to add 1-2 contributions during a coffee break also, 9 contributions is great! that not a lot :) what's your field? how many reactions did you get in avg?

@@JeremieGuedj My field is Back-end Web development. In an average I got 4 reaction in every contribution.

ahah thanks for the honest feedback Joseph! that will definitely be an improvement area for my next video :)

See my reply to your other comment

Would love to hear more about what you disliked, is it the music style? Is it too loud?

@@JeremieGuedj Look at people who present with massive audiences like MKD - Marques Brownlee he rarely uses music we care about what he has to say just like I care about what you have to say. Don't take my word for it test it. Try the same video with low music and with no music and ask people what video they like best.

thanks for the valuable input! I'm actively researching this topic now for my next video

Ahah yea definitely too loud - fixed in the following videos!

😂

My apologies for that, it definitely is too loud, I fixed that in the following videos

Noted! Thanks for the honest feedback, I hope that already improved in my recent videos

No, Linkedin Premium is not a requirement and will not help you qualify. Here’s what linkedin is saying: “LinkedIn identifies members who are likely to be experts in a certain topic based on their work experience, skills proficiency, and prior engagement on the platform. They must also meet high trust and quality standards by adhering to LinkedIn’s User Agreement and Professional Community Policies, and their contributions must remain relevant, original, and additive.” So it’s likely is a mix of experiences + engagement
