Boost a post
The 6-step “Boost your post” wizard, from the LinkedIn post link to launch.
Boosting a post means asking for likes and comments on one of your LinkedIn posts, in exchange for credits. Click Boost a post at the top of the menu (or go to app.podavera.com/posts/submit).
The Boost your post wizard has 6 steps. Back returns to the previous step without losing anything.
Post URL
Paste your LinkedIn post URL, for example https://www.linkedin.com/posts/....
To get it on LinkedIn: the three dots at the top of the post › Copy link to
post.
The link must come from linkedin.com. Tracking parameters at the end of the URL are ignored, and the same post can't be boosted twice while a boost is running on it.
Audience
Pick the Language (FR or EN) of the members who will engage, then the audience: Any available or By interest. See Choose the audience.
Likes
Pick your package: 10, 20, 50, 100 or 200 likes, at 1 credit per like. The packages offered depend on your plan:
| Plan | Likes per post |
|---|---|
| Starter | up to 10 |
| Growth | up to 50 |
| Scale | up to 200 |
Comments
Optional. Write the comments to post, one per line. Each line is one comment requested, at 3 credits. The number of comments and their cost show below the text box. Up to 50 comments per post.
Write comments that genuinely respond to your post: these are what members will publish. No comments? Click Skip.
Settings
Set the Speed, the Distribution and the Time spent simulation. The defaults (Natural, Uniform, None) suit most cases. See Speed and distribution.
Summary
Check your choices and the Total cost, then click Boost Now. The cost is debited from your balance and the boost starts.
After launch
The boost shows in My posts with the status Boosting and, on Home, in Current boost. The first actions go out about a minute later. See Follow a boost.
If the boost is refused
| Cause | What to do |
|---|---|
| The link isn't a valid LinkedIn URL | Paste the full post link, copied from LinkedIn. |
| This post already has a boost running | Wait for it to finish, or cancel it from My posts. |
| More likes than your plan allows | Pick a smaller package, or change plan. |
| Not enough credits | Lower the likes or comments, or earn credits. |
Your own extension never gets tasks on your posts.
