Start writing to see the analysis.

On LinkedIn, only the first lines are visible before “…see more”. The preview shows exactly what readers will see, on desktop and mobile.

How to write in bold on LinkedIn

  1. Write your post in the editor.
  2. Switch between Desktop and Mobile in the preview.
  3. Rework the hook until it fits before “see more”.

The hook happens before “see more”

About three lines, fewer on mobile. The visible part is highlighted in the preview: if your main idea is not there, readers will never see it.

Mobile first

Most readers are on mobile, where lines are shorter. A post that breathes on desktop can turn into a dense block on a phone.

Frequently asked questions

Is the preview identical to LinkedIn?

It reproduces layout, line breaks, hashtag color and an approximate “see more” fold. LinkedIn measures the fold in pixels per device, so it may differ by a word.

Do I need to connect my LinkedIn account?

No. The preview's name and headline are editable and stay in your browser.
