LinkedIn Myths Professionals Still Believe in 2025 (And What to Do Instead)

In 2025, many professionals still cling to outdated LinkedIn myths—treating it as just an online CV, prioritising connections over content, or assuming it’s only useful for job seekers. The reality? LinkedIn has evolved into a dynamic platform for thought leadership, business growth, and strategic networking. With data showing that active content creators receive 4x more profile views and that B2B companies see 2.5x higher conversion rates through LinkedIn ads, it’s clear the game has changed. At Lucy Bingle – LinkedIn Experts, we help professionals break free from these myths and build powerful, engaging LinkedIn strategies that drive visibility, credibility, and results.

“Lucy was a bright spark for our marketing and branding efforts, in particular our LinkedIn initiatives, for the team in Shanghai. Really enjoyed working with her and she provided great support from the Group HQ in Sydney. Her insights, tips, and LinkedIn knowledge was a huge help and really taught us how to increase our visibility, network, and the effectiveness of our online presence as headhunters. Hope to work again with her in the future!”
