Counts use Unicode characters, the way most networks count. X counts links as 23 characters and some emoji as 2, so leave a little room.

LinkedIn allows up to 3,000 characters per post.

How to write one post that fits everywhere

  1. 1

    Write the full version first, then trim for the shortest network you post to.

  2. 2

    Put the hook in the first 120 characters. Most feeds cut off around there.

  3. 3

    Keep links and hashtags at the end so they're easy to drop per network.

  4. 4

    Use Postoni's composer to keep one draft and tweak each channel's copy.

Character counter FAQ

What is the LinkedIn character limit?

LinkedIn allows up to 3,000 characters per post. Spaces, line breaks and punctuation all count toward the limit.

What happens if my LinkedIn post is too long?

LinkedIn will reject or cut off text over the limit. This counter turns red as soon as you go over, so you can trim before posting.

Can I schedule LinkedIn posts with Postoni?

Yes. Postoni schedules LinkedIn posts and checks the 3,000-character limit in the composer, alongside 30+ other networks.

Count less. Post more.

Postoni checks every network's limit as you write and schedules the post for you.
