LinkedIn character counter
The LinkedIn limit is 3,000 characters per post. Paste your text to get the exact count, plus whether it fits on every other platform.
How LinkedIn counts characters
Every character in the post counts, including spaces, line breaks and hashtags.
LinkedIn shows the opening lines and hides the rest behind "see more", so the first line carries the post.
Frequently asked questions
What is the LinkedIn character limit?
3,000 characters for a post. Every character in the post counts, including spaces, line breaks and hashtags.
What happens if my LinkedIn post is over the limit?
LinkedIn refuses or cuts text that runs past the limit. Socialync checks the count before it publishes and tells you which platform is over, so you can shorten it or write a separate LinkedIn version.
Can I post the same text to LinkedIn and other platforms at once?
Yes. Socialync publishes one post to all 9 platforms at once and lets you write a separate caption for any platform with a tighter limit. The free plan needs no card.
