Best Practices for LinkedIn Formatting

✓

Use Bold Sparingly

Bold text is most effective when used for key points, headings, or calls-to-action. Overusing it reduces impact.

✓

Keep it Professional

LinkedIn is a professional platform. Use formatting to enhance clarity and readability, not for decorative purposes.

✓

Test Before Posting

Always preview your formatted text using our preview feature before posting to ensure it looks correct.
