How to See My Posts on LinkedIn

Ever posted something on LinkedIn, only to have it disappear into the void an hour later? You know you shared it, but scrolling through the main feed is a lost cause. This guide will show you exactly how to find every post you've ever made, view all your activity, and even analyze what's actually working with your audience.

The Easiest Way to Find All Your LinkedIn Posts

LinkedIn has a dedicated section for all your activity, but it's tucked away under a few menu clicks. Once you know where it is, you'll use it all the time. Here's the most direct route to find your posts on both desktop and mobile.

Finding Your Posts on a Desktop Computer

If you're on a laptop or desktop, this is a 30-second process. Follow these simple steps:

1. Click the "Me" Icon: In the top navigation bar of your LinkedIn homepage, you'll see a small circular icon with your profile picture and the word "Me" underneath it. Click on this to open a dropdown menu.
2. Select "View Profile": In the dropdown menu, the first option will be your name and a link to "View Profile." Click it to go to your main profile page.
3. Locate Your "Activity" Section: Scroll down your profile page just below your main intro card (with your name, headline, and location). You'll find a section labeled "Activity." It shows a preview of your most recent interactions.
4. Click "Show All Activity": To see everything, click on the text that says "Show all activity" at the bottom of this box. This will take you to a dedicated page containing your entire history on LinkedIn.
5. Filter by "Posts": By default, this page shows all your activity - likes, comments, and posts. To see only the content you've published, click on the "Posts" tab at the top of the feed.

That's it. You are now looking at a clean, chronological list of every post, article, and document you've shared from your account.

Finding Your Posts on the Mobile App

The process is nearly identical on the LinkedIn mobile app for iOS and Android.

1. Tap Your Profile Picture: In the top-left corner of the app's home screen, tap your profile picture.
2. Tap "View Profile": This will slide open a sidebar menu. The first option, right under your name, is "View Profile." Tap it.
3. Scroll to the "Activity" Section: Just like on desktop, scroll down past your main profile card until you see the "Activity" section.
4. Tap "Show All Activity": At the bottom of this section, tap the button to view all your activity.
5. Use the "Posts" Filter: You'll land on a screen showing all your activity streams. At the top, you can filter by "Articles," "Posts," and "Documents." Tap "Posts" to isolate the content you've authored.

This is your personal content library, a perfect place to review your past content strategy or find a specific update you need to reference.

Going Deeper: Master Your Activity Dashboard

The "Activity" page is more than just a list of your posts. It's a complete log of your engagement across the entire platform. Understanding its different filters can give you powerful insights into how you're building your brand and network.

At the top of your Activity page, you'll see several tabs:

• All Activity: The default view, showing everything you've done in reverse chronological order. It's a firehose of information but can be useful for seeing a holistic view of your recent interactions.
• Articles: If you write long-form articles using LinkedIn's publishing platform, this is where they'll live. This is separate from regular feed posts.
• Posts: Your go-to filter. This includes status updates, shares with your own commentary, photos, videos, poll questions, and event promotions initiated by you.
• Documents: Shows all the resume PDFs, slide decks, and other documents you've uploaded and shared.
• Comments: A powerful filter for reviewing your engagement with *other people's* content. Seeing a list of all your comments helps you assess if you are adding valuable conversation to your industry or just dropping generic replies.
• Likes: Shows all the posts you've reacted to. This is less about content management and more about seeing what catches your eye.

Regularly reviewing these tabs, especially "Posts" and "Comments," is a great habit. It helps you quickly spot opportunities to follow up on conversations, gauge the balance between your broadcasting (posts) and your engagement (comments), and maintain a consistent professional voice.

How to Find a Specific Post Using LinkedIn Search

Sometimes you need to find a single, specific post from months or even years ago. Scrolling through your Activity feed can be tedious. Luckily, LinkedIn's search function has a hidden filter that makes this incredibly easy.

Let's say you remember writing a post about "leadership challenges."

1. Use the Main Search Bar: At the very top of LinkedIn, type a keyword or phrase from the post you're looking for into the search bar (e.g., "leadership challenges"). Press Enter.
2. Filter by "Posts": LinkedIn will show you a mix of people, jobs, and content related to your keyword. In the list of filters under the search bar, click on "Posts." This narrows the results to only show content updates.
3. Apply the "Posted by" Filter: This is the most important step. On the search results page, you'll now see a new set of filters on the right sidebar (or under an "All Filters" button on mobile). Find the filter named "Author" (or "Posted by").
4. Select "You": Under the "Author" filter, you can choose between "1st connections," "2nd connections," or just "You." Select "You" from this list.

The page will now refresh and show you every single post *you* have ever made containing the keyword "leadership challenges." This method is super effective for digging up old content you want to reference or repurpose.

Reviewing and Analyzing Your Posts for Better Results

Finding your posts isn't just about locating old content, it's about learning what connects with your audience so you can create more of what works. Once you have a post in front of you, you have a wealth of data at your fingertips.

Checking Your Post's Analytics

Underneath every post you've made, you'll see a line of gray text that says something like, "Impressions: 4,021" or "View analytics." Clicking this expands a small window with valuable insights:

• Impressions: This number tells you how many times your post was displayed in people's LinkedIn feeds. It's a measure of reach. A high number means the algorithm is showing your post to a lot of people.
• Reactions: You can see a breakdown of Likes, Celebrates, Love, Insightful, and Funny reactions. Look for patterns here. Do posts with images get more "Likes"? Do thoughtful questions get more "Insightful" reactions?
• Comments: The raw number of comments on your post. This is a strong indicator of engagement. Posts that spark conversation are highly valued by the LinkedIn algorithm.
• Video Views: For video posts, this tells you how many people watched your video for at least three seconds.
• Republishes: Shows how many times your post was reshared by others.

Using Data to Build Your Strategy

By regularly finding and reviewing your posts, you start building a feedback loop. Set aside 15 minutes every week to look through your activity feed and ask these questions:

• Which of my posts this week had the most impressions? Why do I think that is?
• Which one generated the most comments? Did I ask an open-ended question?
• Is my video content getting more traction than text-only posts?
• What topics seem to fall flat? What topics get people talking?

This simple act of review transitions you from just posting content to building a genuine content strategy based on what your audience actually cares about.

Why Keeping Track of Your Posts Matters

It's easy to fall into a "post and forget" mindset. But actively managing your content archive on LinkedIn is fundamental to building a strong professional brand.

1. Identify Repurposing Opportunities

Did a post from six months ago about a specific industry trend perform exceptionally well? That's a clear signal from your audience. You can repurpose that successful topic into a new, updated post, a short video, or even expand it into a full-length LinkedIn article. A library of your past content is a goldmine of proven ideas.

2. Maintain Brand Consistency

Looking at all your posts together gives you a bird's-eye view of your messaging. Does your content feel cohesive? Is your expert voice coming through consistently? Reviewing your post history helps you spot inconsistencies and stay on track with your professional image.

3. Engage with Old Conversations

Sometimes a new comment appears on a post that's weeks or months old. By having an easy way to see your content, you can spot these late comments and re-engage, reviving a valuable conversation and showing that you're attentive to your network.

Final Thoughts

Locating your posts on LinkedIn is simple once you know where to look. By using your profile's dedicated "Activity" section and the platform's powerful search filters, you can take control of your content, analyze what's performing, and build a more intentional brand strategy.

Having a visual calendar of all your scheduled and published content is one of the most effective ways to stay organized, not just on LinkedIn but across all your social platforms. We built Postbase with a beautiful calendar view that shows your entire content strategy at a glance, making it simple to plan ahead and see exactly what's going live and when. It brings calm to the chaos of managing it all in one place.
