Process

How It Works

01

Paste your post

Type or paste your LinkedIn update into the field. The counter updates instantly as you write.

02

Watch the 210-char cutoff

The counter flags when you pass the ~210 characters that show before the "see more" link, so your opening hook earns the click.

03

Stay under 3,000

The progress bar turns as you approach the 3,000-character post limit and shows exactly how many characters you have left.

Use Cases

Popular Use Cases

Front-load your hook

Only the first ~210 characters show before "see more". Use the cutoff marker to make sure your opening line earns the expand on its own.

Build thought leadership

Longer-form posts that earn the click can signal dwell time. Track your full argument against the 3,000-character ceiling.

Repurpose across platforms

See instantly whether your LinkedIn post also fits X, Instagram, TikTok, and the rest before scheduling.

B2B and company updates

The same 3,000-character limit applies to personal posts and company page updates, check them all here.

Tips

Pro Tips

01

The first 210 characters earn the click

LinkedIn hides everything after roughly 210 characters behind a "see more" link. Lead with a strong, complete hook so people choose to expand.

02

Posts under 210 chars never truncate

Short posts show in full and skip the "see more" link entirely. If you want the full thought visible at a glance, keep it under ~210 characters.

03

Line breaks make posts scannable

Whitespace and short paragraphs help busy professionals skim your post. Line breaks count as characters, so factor them into your total.

04

Longer posts can signal dwell time

A longer update that earns the "see more" tap keeps readers on your post longer, which can help reach. Use the space, but only if every line adds value.

Next step
