## What you can schedule on LinkedIn
LinkedIn rewards posts that teach something or share real experience, and those take time to write. Scheduling lets you write when you have the focus and publish when your network is reading.

### Text posts
Up to 3,000 characters. That's room for a short story, a list of lessons or a clear argument. Only the opening lines show before the "…more" link, so the start matters most.

### Image posts
Attach up to 9 images to one post. Use a single image for a chart or a quote, or several for an event recap or a step-by-step. Our guide to [image sizes for LinkedIn posts](https://scheduleforyou.com/blog/image-sizes-for-linkedin-posts) covers the shapes that display well.

### Video posts
Attach one video in place of images: an MP4 between 3 seconds and 30 minutes long. Short talking-head clips and product walkthroughs are common choices. LinkedIn processes the video after upload, and the post goes live as soon as it's ready.

## How it works
1. **Connect LinkedIn.** Open the Accounts screen, choose LinkedIn and sign in to authorize Schedule For You.
2. **Write the post.** Start with your core idea and attach any images or a video. Select other platforms if the post will run there too.
3. **Tailor the LinkedIn version.** LinkedIn readers expect more context than X readers. Expand your short X draft into a few paragraphs, add the lesson or result, and drop hashtags that suit Instagram but look out of place here. Edits stay on the LinkedIn tab.
4. **Pick a time or add it to the queue.** Choose a specific time, or add the post to your queue so it lands in the next open slot.

## Features that help on LinkedIn
### Calendar for consistency
LinkedIn is a network where showing up regularly builds recognition. The drag-and-drop calendar shows your weeks at a glance, so you can see whether you're posting steadily or in bursts.

### Approvals for ghostwriters and agencies
If you write posts for an executive or a client, send a preview link. They can approve or comment without creating an account, and you see their notes before the post is published.

### Workspaces per person or brand
Keep each person's accounts, drafts and media in a separate workspace, so nothing is published under the wrong name. Each workspace has its own plan.

### Reminder emails and a daily digest
Reminder emails and a daily digest keep you aware of what's going out, which is useful when you're scheduling on someone else's behalf.

### Bulk scheduling
Plan a month of LinkedIn posts in a spreadsheet, then upload it as a CSV with your media to schedule the batch in one go.

## Tips for LinkedIn posts
- **Earn the click on "…more".** Make the first line or two a clear promise or a surprising detail. Our [LinkedIn text formatter](https://scheduleforyou.com/tools/linkedin-text-formatter) previews roughly where the cut-off falls.
- **Use formatting sparingly.** Short paragraphs and a simple list help readability. Unicode bold and italics can help a word stand out, but screen readers may not read them clearly, so don't style whole sentences.
- **Keep links purposeful.** Make the post useful on its own and treat the link as a next step for people who want more.
- **Reply after posting.** Scheduling handles the publishing, but conversations in the comments are still yours to join.

## Frequently asked questions
### How long can a scheduled LinkedIn post be?
Up to 3,000 characters. The composer counts the LinkedIn version as you type and flags it if it runs over.

### How many images can I add to a LinkedIn post?
Up to 9 images in one post, or a single video instead.

### Can I schedule the same idea to LinkedIn and X?
Yes. Write it once, select both, then tailor each version: a longer explanation on LinkedIn and a short, punchy line on X. Changes to one version don't affect the other.

### Can my client approve posts before they go out?
Yes. Share a client preview link. Your client can approve or comment without an account, so you can collect sign-off before the scheduled time.

### Does Schedule For You write LinkedIn posts with AI?
No. There are no AI writing features. You write the post, and Schedule For You handles tailoring, timing and publishing.

### What happens if LinkedIn disconnects my account?
If LinkedIn revokes access, a scheduled post can fail. You get a failed-post alert and a prompt to reconnect from the Accounts screen, then you can retry.

### Can I schedule posts to a LinkedIn company page?

Not at the moment. Schedule For You publishes to the personal LinkedIn profile you connect. To post as a company page, publish from the page itself in LinkedIn.
