The best time to post on LinkedIn is between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. from Tuesday through Thursday. During this time window, people are settled into their workday and motivated to catch up on news.
Mondays and Fridays are less ideal for LinkedIn posts because people are transitioning from the weekend to work mode (or vice versa). For example, on Fridays, people are usually busy finishing up their work for the week.
When you do post on LinkedIn (or update your LinkedIn summary), it’s important to sound professional and use concise word choices. If you want to check the tone or wordiness of something before you post, try running it through QuillBot’s free Paraphraser.

Yes, LinkedIn is social media, but with a focus on professional networking, career development, and job seeking. Whereas other social media platforms include posts on a variety of topics, LinkedIn members usually only post about career-related topics.
As with other social media, you can add people to your network, comment on their posts, and make your own posts. Employers post job openings on LinkedIn, so many people use it for job searches.
One difference between LinkedIn and other social media is that there is an “About’ section with space to add a LinkedIn summary.
Because your LinkedIn profile is visible to potential employers and colleagues, it must be free of error. QuillBot’s free Grammar Checker is a quick and easy way to proofread LinkedIn content before it goes live.

You can find your LinkedIn URL in the top right corner of your LinkedIn profile under “Public profile & URL” (beneath “profile language”). You must be logged into LinkedIn to see it, and it looks like this: www.linkedin.com/in/first-last-123456789.
The URL for your LinkedIn profile is helpful to include with your other contact information on your resume or cover letter if you’d like potential employers to see your LinkedIn summary, LinkedIn recommendations, or other details.
When you’re writing or updating your LinkedIn and need grammar help, the QuillBot Grammar Checker will instantly find and fix typos so that your LinkedIn profile makes the best possible impression.
