# LinkedIn Post Templates

Canonical page: https://depost.ai/tools/linkedin-post-templates

Good posts repeat shapes, not sentences. This library names the structures that keep working on LinkedIn, twenty-four of them across eight categories, each with the skeleton marked up for copying, a line on when it is the right choice, and a complete example so you can see the shape carry real weight before you trust it with yours.

Free to use, with no account needed.

## How to use it

1. Filter the 24 templates by category: story, how-to, contrarian, proof, list, question, observation, or behind the scenes.
2. Read when each shape is the right choice and its complete example, then click **Copy** to take the skeleton.

## Questions people ask

### What is in this template library?

24 post structures across eight categories: story shapes, how-tos, contrarian takes, proof posts, lists, questions, observations, and behind-the-scenes formats. Each one has the pattern as a copyable skeleton with the slots marked, one line on when to use it, and a complete example filled in so you can see the shape working.

### How do I actually use a template?

Copy the skeleton, paste it into your editor, and replace the bracketed slots with your material. The line breaks are part of the template: they carry the rhythm that makes the shape work in the feed. When you are done, nothing bracketed should survive, and ideally a reader should not be able to tell a template was involved.

### Will not everyone's posts look the same if we all use templates?

The structures were already everywhere; this page just names them. What makes posts identical is not shared structure, it is shared emptiness: the same shape filled with the same platitudes. A template filled with your specific numbers, your specific mistake, your specific client walks and talks like no one else's post.

### Which template should I start with?

The one whose "when to use it" line matches something that actually happened to you this month. Templates fail when chosen first and filled second. Read your own recent weeks for the material, then pick the shape that fits it. If nothing fits, the observation and question shapes run on attention rather than events.

### Why do the examples use invented companies?

Because putting real companies' numbers in illustrative examples would mean either leaking or lying. The examples are plausible by design and fictional by policy: they show each shape at full strength without borrowing anyone's actual story. Your fill-in should do the opposite, which is exactly why it will outperform the example.

### Is it free?

Yes, all of it, without an account. Copy whatever you want; no attribution needed. The library grows as we find and name more shapes that hold up.
