Free tool
Write in Markdown. Paste on LinkedIn.
LinkedIn has no formatting. This converter turns your headings, bold and lists into the Unicode characters LinkedIn does show, keeps your paragraph spacing when you paste, and shows where the feed cuts your post off. Everything happens in your browser.

Good to know
It is not formatting but different characters: Unicode has a block of "Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols" with letters that look bold, italic or monospace. LinkedIn simply shows them as text. This converter swaps every letter for its look-alike.
Two. Screen readers do not read those characters as words, and LinkedIn search does not match them. So use bold for a few words and keep the words you want to be found on in regular letters. Accented letters (é, ë) also have no bold variant; the converter warns when that happens in your text.
LinkedIn's editor discards lines that contain only whitespace. The converter therefore puts an invisible character (U+2800) on every blank line so your paragraph spacing survives. It counts as one character per paragraph.
That is roughly where the feed cuts your post off behind "…more", after about 210 characters. Whatever should make your reader click through belongs above it.
No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser; nothing goes to a server. Your last text is remembered locally in your browser so you can pick up where you left off.
