LinkedIn Headline Generator
Write a LinkedIn headline that tells recruiters and clients what you do.
Your LinkedIn headline follows you everywhere on the platform. It sits under your name on your profile, next to every comment you leave, and in search results when a recruiter or client looks for someone like you. This free LinkedIn headline generator turns a few lines about your work into six headline ideas you can compare side by side.
Describe your role, your skills, who you help and any results you are proud of, then pick a tone. The generator writes options that lead with what you do and who it is for, and it works in the role keywords people search for. Each idea shows its length against LinkedIn's 220-character limit, and it sticks to the facts you gave it, so nothing in your headline needs to be walked back.
Once your headline is set, fill in the rest of your profile with the LinkedIn About section generator, and keep showing up in the feed by planning posts ahead with the PostJay LinkedIn scheduler.
Frequently asked questions
How long can a LinkedIn headline be?
LinkedIn allows up to 220 characters in the headline field. Every suggestion from this generator shows a live character count against that limit, so you can see at a glance which options fit before you paste one into your profile.
What should a good LinkedIn headline include?
Say what you do, who you do it for, and the result you help them get. Include one or two role keywords people actually search for, such as "product designer" or "B2B copywriter", so you show up when recruiters and clients search LinkedIn.
Will the generator make up achievements?
No. It is instructed to use only the details you give it and not to invent employers, numbers or awards. If you want a metric in your headline, include the real figure in your description and it can work it in.
Is the LinkedIn headline generator free?
Yes. You can use it without an account. Anonymous visitors get a few free generations per day, and a free PostJay account removes the daily cap.
