What does the LinkedIn Post Formatter do?

On LinkedIn only the first two or three lines (roughly 210 characters on desktop) show before “…see more”, so your hook decides whether people keep reading. The formatter previews that portion and counts characters against the 3,000 limit.

Use **bold**, *italic* and lines starting with “-” for bullets; they are converted to Unicode characters that LinkedIn displays. Keep emphasis light for readability and accessibility.

How to use the LinkedIn Post Formatter

  1. Write your post with formatting markers.
  2. Choose a bullet style.
  3. Check the hook preview and length.
  4. Copy into LinkedIn.

Examples
