How to Keep LinkedIn Post Images Up-to-Date with Post Inspector
May 24, 2023Hey there, Phil here. 👋🏾
Have you ever published a blog post, only to realize that you need to change the image — but the image doesn't update in your LinkedIn post? This issue often arises because the LinkedIn image cache hasn't been updated. But don't worry, there is an easy fix!
LinkedIn Post Inspector is a tool that can help you stay up-to-date with your LinkedIn post images. All you need to do is paste your blog post's URL into the inspector's text field and click the “inspect” button. This will trigger an update of the image, and voila! Your post will show the new image.
The LinkedIn Post Inspector can also be used to update your profile image if it's blank or outdated. Plus, it's not limited to LinkedIn! You can use the same process with Twitter Card Validator and Facebook Sharing Debugger.
Keeping your images up-to-date is essential for your blog posts. It's worth taking the extra time to ensure that the images you use are accurate and fresh. Following these simple steps can help you rest assured that your blog posts are looking their best.
So, next time you need to change an image on a LinkedIn post, remember to use the LinkedIn Post Inspector tool to ensure your post looks great and up-to-date.
