Did you know that 80% of video views on LinkedIn are done with the sound off? In fact, video that has been designed for silent viewing is 7X more likely to be watched to the end.

Linkedin makes it easy to add closed captioning to your video. Just follow these basic instructions:

1. Go to your status update box on the home page and click the video icon.
2. Click the Edit icon to see Video Settings.
3. Click “Select File, to attach an SRT (SubRip Subtitle) file and click “Save.”
4. Add a brief description or comment along with relevant hashtags and click “post”. You’ll be notified when your video with closed captions is ready.
