I don't know how to produce contents that sell!

Customer: If I don’t produce high quality {INDUSTRY} related contents, I cannot attract customers to visit my website, let alone leaving comments and sharing to LinkedIn!

Kai Chew: You cannot run from this, content is the long term way to establish brand and communicate with customers. Else, some competitors will do it for you and take your shares. I can help you to create contents that resonate with your readers. If you’re in very high technical industry, I can link you to some researchers and content writers. Besides that, we will work together to drive professionals to read, comment and share your website through many growth hacking tactics (including LinkedIn Marketing).

Embedding LinkedIn Comments Widget without Technical Skill

Customer: I don’t know how to embed this LinkedIn Comments Widget on my website!

Kai Chew: I can embed the widget for you! Just give me a one-time access to your Content Management System (CMS). Once it’s ready, you can turn-off my access immediately. I will not do anything else without your permission.

Shared to LinkedIn without link. Then link below.

New Features:

Random dummy comment item when no comments available yet. People don't want to be the first to comment.

Simpler LinkedIn Comments UI, i.e. small Like button, .. etc.

Comments shared to LinkedIn are without link. Then, a comment below with the original post link (first to comment). The reason for adding an external link to the main body of LinkedIn post will reduce the distribution. Anything that takes the user away from LinkedIn is discouraged.

Quick result for post without link (with less than 6 hashtags).

WOW! Funnel and Persona Analysis for LinkedIn Comments Widget

I created a WOW! Funnel with Persona Analysis for my LinkedIn Comments Widget MVP.

Hi! It's Kai Chew here. I’m Technical Sales Director of Optimiser.com and the project manager for Load Plan Optimiser (LPO). During time off, I'm working on a 3rd party embeddable comment plugin (think Facebook Comments, Disqus, SpotIM, .. etc) based on LinkedIn.

TL;DR

Selling to LinkedIn users through Web.

Having a LinkedIn Community of Customers right on my Web.

I don't know how to embed the LinkedIn Comments Widget!

I don't know how to write high quality contents that will make my customers engage!

Selling to LinkedIn users through Web

I'm a logistics consultant who selling my services and products on my web. My typical customers are the planners or managers of small logistical enterprises. They are professional and LinkedIn users.

Having a LinkedIn Community of Customers right on my Web

By adding a single line of code once, my customers can leave the comment with their LinkedIn account immediately. LinkedIn users are more credible than other social networks. I can know more about them through their job title and a link to their LinkedIn profiles. I can have a community of professional users with high quality comments right on my website.

By commenting, they can share our products/services to LinkedIn immediately, generating more traffic to my website and then possibly sales!

I don't know how to embed the LinkedIn Comments Widget!

The first problem is I cannot code, even though it is just a single line of code and need to do it for only once. I don't know how to embed this LinkedIn Comments Widget on my website even after reading the step-by-step guide of adding this widget to Tumblr or Wordpress.

Kai Chew: I can embed the widget for you! Just give me a one-time access to your Content Management System (CMS). Once it's ready, you can turn-off my access immediately. I will not do anything else without your permission.

LinkedIn Profile URL and Job Title (New Feature!)

For self-service developers, we can only access to 2 LinkedIn APIs, which are:

Share on LinkedIn

Sign In with LinkedIn

Unless you're a LinkedIn Partner with the access to the Enterprise Products, we cannot even get the profile url or job title of an user.

Please do not apply to a partner program like the Marketing Developer Platform if you are seeking access to member profile data that is not made available via the new “Lite Profile” permission. Access to partner programs is appropriate for select use cases only, and all other requests for access will be rejected.

Normally, we can use web scrapper to get the LinkedIn profile url, job title and more, but it's a bit risky to be banned by LinkedIn (solution: create a dummy account).

I don't like to access the data LinkedIn doesn't allow me, but I wanted to get the url to link back to correct LinkedIn Profile, which actually directing the traffic back to LinkedIn.

My best option is through google or bing, or any web search engine, which can kind of getting the url without 100% accuracy. Something like:

site:linkedin.com {query}

Step-by-step Guide

Read more about Custom Search JSON API first.

Create Google Custom Search. You need a free Google Developer account.

Enable Custom Search API into a Google Project.

Get Custom Search API Key. Same with my Google Map API public key.

HTTP GET call as usual.

Limitations

Custom Search JSON API provides 100 search queries per day for free.

Accessing the Meteor MongoDb Database

meteor > v1.6

docker image: abernix/meteord:base

You can’t access the MongoDB from outside the server. To access the MongoDB shell you need to log into your server via SSH first

ssh root@<serverip>

and then run the following command:

docker exec -it mongodb mongo <appname>

What is LinkedIn Comments Box for?

Karen: My biggest problem is that I don't get what the product does. Maybe it's just me? I'm not big on LinkedIn.

Kai: You can think of Facebook Comments Plugin but for LinkedIn :-) Or Disqus, Spot IM, ... without ads. The idea is let B2B Businesses to embed LinkedIn Comments into their websites with just single line of code, so that professionals (most likely using LinkedIn) engaging the contents using their LinkedIn accounts.
