What makes a headline work

Your headline sits next to your photo in search results, comments, and connection requests — it is read far more often than your About section. The lines that work do two things: they say what you are, and they give a reason to click.

The photo next to that headline does as much work as the words. Generate a professional headshot from $19 and use the same image everywhere.

Frequently asked questions

Is this free?

Yes. Everything happens in your browser from the words you type — no AI generation, no account.

How long should a LinkedIn headline be?

LinkedIn shows roughly the first 45–60 characters in most feeds, though the field allows up to 220. Put the part that identifies you first.

Should I use separators or emoji?

Pipes or bullet separators improve scanning. Emoji cost characters and can look dated in recruiting contexts — use them deliberately, if at all.

Should the headline say what I do or what I help with?

Both work. Outcome-led lines ("I help X do Y") suit consultants and founders; role-first lines suit people whose title is what recruiters search for.

Will a better headline change how many people view my profile?

Your headline appears next to your photo in search results, comments and feed previews, alongside the photo itself — it is one of the few lines that shows up everywhere.
