How to Create Polls on LinkedIn®

Step 1

Enter Your Poll Topic

What do you want to ask your audience about? Drop in a topic, a trend, or an idea you're curious about. It could be anything from remote work preferences to AI tools to career advice. The more specific your topic, the better your poll options.

Step 2

Generate Poll Ideas

Hit Generate Polls and get multiple poll questions with answer options ready to go. Each poll is designed to spark opinions and drive engagement. Pick the one that fits your audience.

Step 3

Launch Your Poll.

Copy your favourite poll to LinkedIn®, hit post, and let your network weigh in. Polls naturally invite participation, and people love sharing their opinions. Just sit back and watch the engagement come in.

Frequently Asked Questions

You've got questions. We've got answers.

Why do polls on LinkedIn® get so much engagement?

Polls are low-effort for the audience. One click to vote, no typing required. That low barrier means more people participate. And once someone votes, they often stick around to see results and join the comments.

What makes a good poll question on LinkedIn®?

The best polls ask questions people have opinions about. Avoid yes/no questions when you can. Create options that feel distinct and make people think for a second before voting. A little tension or controversy helps too.

How many answer options should I include?

LinkedIn® allows up to four options. Use all four if they make sense, but three strong options beat four weak ones. Make sure each option is clearly different from the others.

What topics work best for polls?

Industry trends, career decisions, work preferences, hot takes, and "which do you prefer" questions all perform well. Anything your audience has an opinion on works. Avoid overly niche topics unless you have a specialized audience.

How long do polls run on LinkedIn®?

You can set polls to run for 1 day, 3 days, 1 week, or 2 weeks. Shorter polls create urgency. Longer polls gather more votes. One week is a solid default for most topics.

Should I add a post caption with my poll?

Yes. A short caption explaining why you're asking or sharing your own take gets more engagement than a poll with no context. It gives people something to respond to in the comments.
