Post and share updates

Last updated: 5 months ago

You can create a post and share updates using the share box at the top of the LinkedIn homepage. The character limit for a post is 3000 characters.

If you’re a super or content admin of one or more LinkedIn Pages, you can share an update directly from your LinkedIn homepage.

Note:

  • Use Start a post from the main share box on the LinkedIn desktop experience to view additional sharing options.
  • Post suggestions are displayed below the pop-up window that appears when you click Start a post. Click on a suggestion, select an option, and follow the prompts to create a post.
