Question 1

What is a LinkedIn post template?

Accepted Answer

A LinkedIn post template is a pre-designed layout for creating professional-looking carousel posts on LinkedIn. Templates give you a polished starting point so you can focus on your message instead of design. Our templates support multi-slide document posts that are uploaded as PDFs to LinkedIn.

Question 2

What size should LinkedIn posts be?

Accepted Answer

LinkedIn carousel (document) posts should be 1080 x 1350 pixels (4:5 portrait ratio) or 1080 x 1080 pixels (square). The portrait format takes up more screen space on mobile and is recommended for maximum visibility. All our templates use the optimal 1080 x 1350 px portrait format.

Question 3

Are carousel posts effective on LinkedIn?

Accepted Answer

Yes. LinkedIn document (carousel) posts are one of the highest-performing content types on the platform. They encourage users to swipe through multiple slides, increasing dwell time and engagement. Carousel posts consistently outperform text-only and single-image posts for reach and impressions.
