LinkedIn Post Character Counter

Paste your LinkedIn post to see how much of the 3,000-character limit you've used, and the opening that shows in the feed before "…see more".

LinkedIn's post limits

A LinkedIn post can be up to 3,000 characters. Comments are limited to 1,250 and headlines to 220.

The feed shows roughly the first 210 characters on a computer, and fewer (around 140) on a phone, before "…see more". Lines count too: a short first line followed by a break is a common way to make people expand the post.

If you're posting a video, the text above it is the post text and follows the same limit.
