A five-signal audit of your LinkedIn presence — engagement, cadence, network strength, content depth, and thought leadership. Score, breakdown, and the three highest-leverage moves to lift it this week.
Reactions, comments and reshares per post. The single strongest leading indicator of inbound recruiter contact. Weighted at 30%.
How consistently you show up. Weekly cadence compounds engagement over time. Weighted at 26%.
Not size — density. How many connections sit in the sectors and functions that hire at your level. Weighted at 20%.
Long-form articles and newsletters. The signal that converts profile views into real conversations. Weighted at 13%.
Cumulative searchable surface area — posts, articles, comments — that surfaces when someone searches your name. Weighted at 11%.
"I was a sporadic poster. Authority Builder showed me my network was strong but my cadence was killing me. Three weeks of weekly posts, and recruiters started arriving."
