LinkedIn enforces different character limits in different places, and going over them means your text gets truncated or rejected. This counter tracks your text live and flags the key thresholds so you never lose your best line to a cutoff.

The most important limit is the "see more" fold at around 210 characters on mobile: everything after it is hidden until someone taps. Keep your hook and key message above that line.

Frequently asked questions

What is the LinkedIn post character limit?

A regular LinkedIn post allows up to 3,000 characters. Only about the first 210 show before the "see more" fold on mobile, so put your most important message first.

How long can a LinkedIn headline be?

Up to 220 characters. The About section allows up to 2,600 characters and a single comment up to 1,250.

Does this counter store my text?

No. Everything runs in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere or saved. Close the tab and it is gone.
