LinkedIn Post Formatter

A LinkedIn post formatter helps you write posts that are easy to read in the feed. LinkedIn's composer only takes plain text, so formatting has to come from Unicode bold and italic letters, careful line breaks and simple list markers.

This formatter gives you Bold, Italic, Bullets, Numbers and Plain text buttons that work on your selection, a 3,000-character counter, and a feed preview that cuts the post where LinkedIn typically shows "see more" on desktop or mobile, so you can test your opening lines before posting. It runs in your browser and nothing is posted for you.

Feed readers see only the opening of a post, roughly 210 characters on desktop and 140 on a phone, before "see more". Those lines decide whether anyone reads the rest. Start with the outcome, the problem or a short, specific claim, and keep the first line on its own.

Use bold for one or two key phrases at most. Styled letters are special Unicode characters, so screen readers may not read them and LinkedIn search won't match them.
