What is the character limit for LinkedIn posts?

LinkedIn posts have a 3,000 character limit. Our tool shows a live character count so you can stay within the limit while formatting your content.

Does formatting affect LinkedIn engagement?

Yes. Posts with proper formatting get up to 3x more engagement. Well-spaced content is easier to read, especially on mobile where 60% of LinkedIn users browse. Line breaks create visual breathing room that keeps readers scrolling.

Can I use line breaks in LinkedIn comments?

Yes, this tool works for LinkedIn comments too. The same invisible character technique preserves line breaks in comments, helping you write more structured responses.

Why is my LinkedIn post hard to read on mobile?

Dense text blocks look overwhelming on small screens. Use line breaks to create short paragraphs of 1-2 sentences each. This makes your post scannable and increases the chance people read the whole thing.

How many line breaks should I use in a LinkedIn post?

Add a line break after every 1-2 sentences for best readability. Use double line breaks between major sections or ideas. Don't overdo it - too much spacing can make your post feel disconnected.

Is this LinkedIn formatter free to use?

Yes, completely free with no signup required. Just paste your text, copy the formatted result, and post to LinkedIn.

Does this tool work with LinkedIn articles?

LinkedIn articles have a built-in rich text editor with native formatting support. This tool is designed for regular LinkedIn posts and comments where formatting options are limited.

Can I schedule formatted LinkedIn posts?

Yes! PostPlanify preserves your post formatting when you schedule content. Write your posts with perfect spacing and schedule them to publish at optimal times.

How It Works

Write or paste your LinkedIn post

Enter your content in the editor. Add line breaks where you want spacing - just press Enter for new paragraphs.

Formatting is applied automatically

The tool adds invisible characters to preserve your blank lines. These characters are undetectable but prevent LinkedIn from removing your spacing.

Click 'Copy Post' to copy the formatted text to your clipboard, ready to paste into LinkedIn.

Paste and publish on LinkedIn

Paste directly into LinkedIn's post composer. Your line breaks and spacing will appear exactly as you formatted them.

💡 Pro Tips

Hook readers in the first 2 lines

LinkedIn shows only the first 2-3 lines before 'see more'. Start with a bold statement or question, then add a line break to create curiosity.

Keep paragraphs to 1-2 sentences

Short paragraphs are easier to scan on mobile. One idea per paragraph with line breaks between keeps readers engaged.

Use spacing to emphasize key points

Surround your most important sentence with blank lines. The white space draws the eye and makes the message stand out.

End with a clear call-to-action

After your main content, add line breaks and end with a question or CTA. Separated from the body, it's more likely to get responses.

Format for the 'see more' click

Put something intriguing right before the fold. A cliffhanger or surprising statement after 2-3 lines increases click-through.

Test your post on mobile first

Most LinkedIn users browse on phones. Preview your formatted post on mobile to make sure the spacing looks right before publishing.
