LinkedIn Headline Generator
Four answers in — headline ideas that fit 220 characters, marked where the feed cuts off.
A fresh batch per press. Your answers are sent to our generator — nothing else is, and the ideas are not stored.
How it works
How to write a LinkedIn headline?
Start with the title
Type your job title the way a person would say it — “Senior Product Designer”, not “Design Professional”.
Add who you help
Who you work with and what they get. That turns a job title into a headline.
Steer it, or don’t
Pick an angle, or leave “Every angle” on and get a mixed batch.
Copy the one that fits
Each idea shows why it works and its count against 220. Copy, paste into LinkedIn.
What you get
A builder, not a list of examples
The shapes that work, not one template
“I help”, keyword stack, result-first, title at company — mixed from what you typed.
A 220-character meter on every idea
Exact count on each idea. Anything over 220 is dropped, not trimmed.
The feed’s cut, marked
The first ~60 characters show in the feed. The rest is greyed.
The reason, with the idea
One line on why it works — pick an argument, not just a wording.
Only your answers travel
Your answers and angle go to the generator. Nothing else. Nothing stored.
Fresh angles on tap
Each press writes a new batch from the same answers.
The 220 characters
Where a headline is actually read?
Your headline travels with every comment, search result and connection request — usually cut to about sixty characters, and usually read by people who never open your profile. Put the title they would search and who you do it for up front. Skip the words that would be true of anyone: “passionate”, “results-driven”, “helping businesses grow”. LinkedIn won’t warn you past 220 characters — it just keeps the first 220. Every idea here is measured first, so what you copy is what gets saved.
Where it pays off
Who needs a headline more than a job title?
You are looking for a job
Recruiters search job titles and skills, and the headline is weighted heavily in what they find. Naming the role you want — not just that you are “open to opportunities” — is the whole difference between showing up in a search and not.
You sell to the people who visit
For freelancers, consultants and founders the headline is the pitch: who you help and what changes for them, read in about two seconds by someone deciding whether to reply.
Your title does not say much yet
Students, career switchers and anyone whose title is “Associate” need the headline to carry the direction their job title cannot. The student and career-switcher shapes exist for exactly that.
You comment more than you post
Your headline travels with every comment you leave, on posts read by thousands who will never open your profile. That makes the first sixty characters the most-read sentence you own on LinkedIn.
