What's the maximum number of characters for each social network?

The maximum number of characters on social media networks varies depending on the platform. Here are the maximum character limits for some popular social media platforms:

• Twitter: 280 characters (previously 140 characters).
• Facebook: There is no specific character limit for Facebook posts, but keeping your post under 63,206 characters is recommended.
• Instagram: Captions have a limit of 2,200 characters, but only the first 125 characters will display in the news feed without users needing to click "more."
• LinkedIn: Posts can have up to 1,300 characters, but only the first 600 characters will display in the feed.
• TikTok: Captions can have up to 100 characters, but keeping them under 70 characters is recommended.
• YouTube: Video titles can have up to 100 characters, and video descriptions can have up to 5,000 characters. However, keeping your video titles under 60 characters and descriptions under 1,000 characters is recommended for optimal engagement and readability.

It's worth noting that social media platforms frequently update their guidelines and character limits, so it's always a good idea to double-check their current policies before posting. Additionally, while these are the maximum character limits, keeping your posts shorter is often recommended for optimal engagement and readability.
