How much does it cost? add

Your score and grade are shown instantly at no cost. Unlocking the full breakdown - strengths, weaknesses, recommendations, and per-section analysis - is a one-time payment of $1.99 (+ VAT where applicable). No subscription, no recurring charges.

Is it safe to use? Do you store my data? add

Absolutely safe. We never ask for your LinkedIn password or login. We only analyze publicly visible information, exactly what a recruiter or hiring manager would see when viewing your profile. We don't store your profile data or personal information.

How do I find my LinkedIn Profile URL? add
  1. Go to your LinkedIn profile page
  2. Look at your browser's address bar at the top
  3. Copy the URL (it should look like: linkedin.com/in/your-name)
  4. Make sure your profile visibility is set to "Public" in your privacy settings
What makes a "good" LinkedIn profile score? add

A score of 80 or above is excellent and indicates your profile is well-optimized for recruiter searches. Scores between 60-79 suggest good fundamentals but room for improvement. Below 60 means critical elements are missing or need significant work. Our tool provides specific actions to boost your score regardless of where you start.

How often should I check my profile? add

Check your profile after making any significant updates, new job, skills, certifications, or headline changes. We also recommend quarterly reviews to ensure your profile stays current with your career growth and industry trends.

Why You Need a LinkedIn Profile Audit in 2026

97% of recruiters use LinkedIn to vet candidates, but over 70% of profiles are incomplete or invisible to search algorithms. Using a LinkedIn profile checker isn't just about vanity metrics, it's about ensuring your profile passes the "6-second test" and ranks high in Recruiter Lite searches.

1. Beat the LinkedIn Algorithm

Just like Google SEO, LinkedIn uses a specific algorithm to rank candidates. Our AI analysis checks for keyword density in your Headline and About sections, ensuring you match the specific terms recruiters are searching for (e.g., "Project Management" vs "Managing Projects").

2. Optimize for ATS Scanners

Many companies use "LinkedIn Apply" which parses your profile directly into their Applicant Tracking System (ATS). If your skills and experience aren't formatted correctly, you could be auto-rejected before a human ever sees your name.

The Ultimate LinkedIn Optimization Checklist

  • check_circleProfessional Headline: Stop using "Student at University." Use "Aspiring Software Engineer | React & Python Developer".
  • check_circleCustom URL: Change your URL from linkedin.com/in/john-doe-129381 to linkedin.com/in/johndoe.
  • check_circleFeatured Section: Upload your CV, portfolio, or certification badges to add visual proof of your skills.
  • check_circleSkills Endorsements: Aim for at least 5 endorsements on your top 3 skills to trigger social proof signals.
