A typical LinkedIn month
With 2 days ticked a week and 5 content pillars rotating in order, a 30-day month produces roughly 8–10 planning rows for LinkedIn alone — more if you tick additional platforms at the same time.
LinkedIn content calendar template
This LinkedIn content calendar template is the same CSV-generating calendar as SkedCast’s general content calendar template, pre-seeded with two business-day posts a week and content pillars suited to LinkedIn (Thought leadership, Company news, Industry insight, Case study / customer story, Team & culture). Pick a month, adjust the days, time, platforms or pillars if you want something different, then download the result as a CSV for Excel, Google Sheets or a SkedCast bulk import.
Local wall-clock time for every slot. Adjust individual rows in your spreadsheet.
Optional. Written into the Account column of every row.
Separate with commas. The pillars rotate across your posting days so consecutive posts cover different themes.

The file also has empty Caption, Media URL, First comment and Hashtags columns, plus a Status column starting at “Idea”, ready to fill in.
How to use the LinkedIn content calendar template
- Pick a month. Choose the month you're planning for; the calendar fills in every LinkedIn-ticked weekday of that month.
- Review the LinkedIn defaults. 2 weekdays are pre-ticked at 09:00 and LinkedIn is pre-selected as the platform — adjust either if your own cadence differs.
- Edit the content pillars. The pillar textarea is pre-filled with pillars suited to this platform; rewrite it with your own recurring themes if you use different ones.
- Add an account or client name (optional). Type an account or client name to have it written into every generated row — useful when you manage more than one profile.
- Download and fill in the rest. Download the CSV, then write your captions, attach media links and add hashtags in your spreadsheet before scheduling.
Worked examples
Same generator, different platform
Swap the platform checkbox from LinkedIn to any other SkedCast-supported platform and the same month, days and pillars carry over — see the other five platform-seeded calendars linked below.
LinkedIn content calendar FAQ
- How often should I post on LinkedIn?
- LinkedIn is the one major platform where more is not obviously better — general 2026 benchmarks put a sustainable cadence at roughly two to three posts a week, on business days, which is why this calendar defaults to Monday and Wednesday rather than a daily schedule.
- Is this a separate calendar tool built just for LinkedIn?
- No — it is the same content-calendar generator as SkedCast’s general content calendar template, pre-seeded with LinkedIn-appropriate defaults (posting days, time and content pillars) so you do not have to set them up yourself.
- Can I change the defaults?
- Yes — every default is just a starting point. Tick different days, change the time, add or remove platforms, and rewrite the content pillars before you download.
- What columns does the downloaded CSV have?
- Date, Time, Platform, Account, Content pillar, Caption, Media URL, First comment, Hashtags and Status. The identifying columns are filled in; Caption, Media URL, First comment and Hashtags are left blank for you to write.
- Does the tool store or upload anything I type?
- No — the calendar is generated entirely in your browser from the days, time, platforms and pillars you choose; nothing is uploaded or saved anywhere.
- Can I plan more than one platform at once with the LinkedIn calendar?
- Yes — the platform list includes every platform SkedCast supports, not just LinkedIn; this page only pre-ticks LinkedIn and its typical cadence by default.
- Is this the same as a LinkedIn calendar template?
- Yes — "LinkedIn calendar template" and "LinkedIn content calendar template" refer to the same thing here: pick your days, time and pillars above and download the ready-made CSV.
