LinkedIn Post Length Checker
Paste your post to see the live character count, exactly where LinkedIn hides the rest behind “…see more”, and whether you're inside the 3,000-character limit.
Counting characters is the easy part. Writing the hook is the hard part.
Linkmind writes scroll-stopping LinkedIn posts in your own voice - Hindi, English or Hinglish - with the hook already front-loaded before the fold.

What is the character limit for a LinkedIn post?
A LinkedIn post (text update) can be up to 3,000 characters. Past that, LinkedIn stops accepting input.
When does LinkedIn cut a post off with "…see more"?
In the feed, LinkedIn shows only the first ~140 characters on the mobile app and ~210 on desktop before the "…more" link. Anything after that is hidden until someone taps to expand - so your hook has to land inside that window.
What is the ideal LinkedIn post length?
There is no single magic number - long-form posts up to ~1,300-2,000 characters can work well - but what matters most is that the first ~140 characters (the part shown before "see more") carry a hook strong enough to earn the expand.
