How to Write Better LinkedIn Comments with AI

Comments signal genuine engagement because they show thought and effort.

This is why LinkedIn’s algorithm gives more weight to comments when deciding how widely a post should spread.

In this article, I will explain:

• Why comments drive more reach than likes
• What makes a good LinkedIn comment
• How to use Podawaa’s AI assistant to write better comments quickly

Let’s start by looking at why comments are so important for LinkedIn growth.

Why LinkedIn Comments Drive More Reach Than Likes

LinkedIn comments drive more reach than likes because they show real engagement.

When someone takes the time to write a response, LinkedIn’s algorithm sees the post as more valuable and shares it with a larger audience.

You can now even see how many impressions your comments bring to posts (both on your own content and on others’).

Here’s why comments matter more than likes:

1. Conversations extend post life: Each new comment pushes the post back into the LinkedIn feed, keeping it visible for longer.

2. More comments = more reach: LinkedIn’s algorithm favors posts that generate interaction, and comments are one of the strongest signals. 

Each comment increases engagement and helps your content get seen by more people.

You can even track this in LinkedIn’s metrics. As shown in the image, LinkedIn highlights how members who comment regularly can get up to 3x more profile views compared to those who don’t.

3. Comments build relationships: Unlike a quick like, a thoughtful comment starts a conversation, strengthens LinkedIn connections, and helps you grow your network.

4. Better for your personal brand: High-quality comments show expertise, improve your online reputation, and attract followers, job seekers, and potential leads.

In short, if likes are a signal, comments are proof. They tell LinkedIn (and your audience) that your content is worth engaging with.

What Makes a Good LinkedIn Comment (and Why It Matters)

A strong LinkedIn comment is one that adds value to the conversation.

Generic replies like “Great post!” or “Thanks for sharing” don’t spark real engagement or help build your personal brand.

LinkedIn often suggests quick one-click comments (like “Congratulations!” or “Wishing you the best”). While polite, these don’t do much to show your perspective or expertise.

Here’s what separates strong comments from weak ones:

1. Be specific

Don’t just say “Interesting.” Point out exactly what you found valuable.

Here’s an example of someone highlighting the spectrum of strategy, mindset, and novelty in the post. His comment shows he read it carefully and adds value to the conversation.

2.  Ask questions

Use your comment to keep the discussion going. A thoughtful question makes the author (and others) want to reply.

Below, Anna asks which posts are most relevant for professionals starting to build their LinkedIn brand. This turns a simple comment into a real conversation starter.

3. Add perspective

Don’t stop at agreement, share a quick story, stat, or insight that adds something new.

Here’s an example of Deborah, who points out that it’s not about the number of engagements but the value gained from them. This shifts the conversation to a more meaningful angle.

4. Connect back to others

Tag another connection who could benefit from the post. This not only adds value to them but also increases the post’s visibility.

Here’s an example of someone tagging a colleague who would be interested in the rollout update. 

She adds context, invites someone new into the conversation, and helps the post reach a wider audience.

How to Write Better LinkedIn Comments with AI (Using Podawaa)

Podawaa is a LinkedIn AI assistant that helps you reach the right audience for each post and can add likes and comments from real people.

The result: more impressions, more people see your posts, and you gain more LinkedIn followers (without engagement pods).

Step 1: Open Boost and go to Comment

Start by opening Podawaa Boost and selecting the post you want to promote. 

After choosing your audience and type of reactions, you’ll land on the Comment section.

At the top, you’ll see how many comments are included in your plan. This is where you decide how your post will get comments, by:

• Writing your own,
• Reusing saved ones, or
• Letting Podawaa’s AI generate them for you.

Step 2: Write Your Own Custom Comments

Podawaa also lets you write custom comments that sound exactly like you. This option works best if you want to show expertise or keep your brand voice consistent.

Here’s how to write a strong custom comment:

• Mention a detail from the post → shows you actually read it.
• Add a quick insight, tip, or example → makes your comment useful.
• Finish with a question → keeps the conversation going.

Step 3: Reuse a List of Saved Comments

If you often comment on similar types of posts (like weekly tips, product launches, or company updates), Podawaa lets you save and reuse your best comments.

Here’s what you can do inside the tool:

• Save top-performing comments so you don’t have to rewrite them.
• Rotate comments across boosts to avoid repeating the same reply.
• Create lists by content type (e.g., thought leadership, product updates, career advice).

Step 4: Generate AI-Powered Comments

This is where Podawaa saves you the most time. Its AI scans your LinkedIn post and creates context-aware comments that actually fit the content.

In this case, the post was about AI and content updates, so the comments below are relevant to that topic. Also, if you don't like some of the comments, you can always edit or delete them.

Step 5: Choose Speed and Confirm Boost

The final step is setting how fast you want the engagement to roll out.

• Standard Speed → Likes and comments appear gradually over 1–2 days. This looks natural to LinkedIn and works best for long-term visibility.
• Super Fast Delivery → Engagement is delivered within a few hours. Use this for urgent posts like event promotions, product launches, or breaking news.

Once you confirm, Podawaa handles the rest automatically, targeting the right audience, adding likes, and posting comments at the pace you chose.

This way, your post doesn’t just get a quick spike; it earns sustainable reach and better visibility in the LinkedIn feed.
