LinkedIn character counter
LinkedIn posts can run to 3,000 characters, but readers see only the opening lines before "see more". Count your post and keep the first lines strong.

How LinkedIn counts characters
- Posts can have up to 3,000 characters.
- Only the first few lines show before "see more", so lead with the point.
- Short paragraphs read better on mobile than one long block.

3,000 characters for a regular post.
How long should a LinkedIn post be?
There is no single right length. Make the opening lines carry the point, because that is all most readers see before "see more".
