Your details

We use only what you type here. We do not make up facts or results, and what you type stays in your browser.

What you want your headline for

A short phrase for your role or service. For example: LinkedIn ghostwriter

For example: independent consultants

A real fact you can back up, like a number, a client or a project.

A word or phrase you want tied to your profile. If it is already in your other answers, we do not repeat it.

Paste your current headline to check it with the same notes. It uses the keyword above if you entered one.

    About this tool

    How it works

    1. Pick what you want the headline for and fill in the fields with real details.
    2. Read the drafts. Each one uses a different template and only your words.
    3. Edit the one that sounds most like you, copy it and paste it into LinkedIn.

    What it measures and what it doesn't

    The notes check the length, whether your keyword shows up near the start, whether you use words that say what you are like but not what you do, and whether the headline is a chain of words split by bars. They are our own advice. They are not a score and not a LinkedIn rule.

    About the limit: LinkedIn says you can use up to 220 characters, but your headline can be cut off in some features. It also shows a counter when you edit, so check it there, because limits can change. You can also read the help page Edit your headline.

    Your headline shows in search results, in invitations and next to your comments, and in those places only the first words may be visible. That is why it helps to put the most important part first.

    Does this generator use artificial intelligence?

    No. It builds the drafts from English templates and only reuses what you type. It does not make up facts or results. Review every draft and adapt it to your voice before you use it.

    Should I fill my headline with keywords?

    No. Keywords can help a search tool tie your profile to certain terms, but they do not say who you work for. Add them only if they do not get in the way of clarity. Source: LinkedIn headline templates: how to use them without sounding like everyone else.
