Why Your "Hook" is Everything on LinkedIn
LinkedIn is a crowded feed. You have less than a second to stop the scroll. Your "Hook" — the first sentence or two of your post — is the only thing standing between a viral post and one that gets ignored.
The "See more" button is the gatekeeper. if your compelling hook gets cut off mid-sentence, or if it's buried behind the fold, you lose readers. Furthermore, the cutoff point is different on Mobile vs. Desktop.
Our LinkedIn Post Preview tool lets you write, format, and check your post against the exact truncation logic of LinkedIn's mobile and desktop apps. Ensure your hook lands, every single time.

3 Rules for a Perfect LinkedIn Hook
Keep it under 3 lines
Lines 1-3 are prime real estate. If you go to line 4, you risk being cut off. Even if your character count is low, line breaks trigger the "See more" button.
Optimize for Mobile First
57% of LinkedIn traffic is mobile. Mobile screens show fewer characters (approx 140 chars) before truncation than desktop (approx 210 chars).
Use White Space
Giant walls of text scare people away. Break your paragraphs. Use one-line openers. Our tool lets you see how your spacing looks in the feed.
