When you're cruising through LinkedIn, you might hit upon some gems—a killer how-to, a spot-on recommendation, or just a post that grabs your eyeballs. And when you do, it's natural to think, "Gotta revisit this later!" That's when you smash that “Save” button.
But here’s the catch: saving posts is awesome, but it can turn into a wild goose chase if you can’t find them again, right? No matter if you're clicking around on your desktop or thumbing through the app on your phone, hunting down your saved LinkedIn posts shouldn’t feel like a mission.
You should be able to pull them up anytime, no sweat. In this article, we've put together some slick tips and tricks to help you track down your saved posts and jobs on LinkedIn with ease. Let's make cruising through your saved LinkedIn stash smooth sailing.
TL;DR: Never lose track of great LinkedIn content again! Our guide shows you how to easily save and manage posts, turning LinkedIn into your personal library of ideas and inspiration.
Why saving posts on LinkedIn ?
Saving LinkedIn posts? Totally a game-changer. It turns your feed into a personal treasure trove of cool stuff—think insightful articles, inspirational newsletters, catchy carousels, and motivational musings. Each saved piece becomes part of your curated collection that really clicks with you, whether you're tuning in personally or professionally.
Stashing away posts means you can dive back into that gold mine anytime you like, no more scratching your head trying to remember who said what or when they said it. Super handy for anyone keen to stay on top of industry moves, snazzy ideas, or those little nuggets of motivation that push you to level up in life and career.
Plus, hitting 'save' on a post isn't just about keeping tabs. It's a shout-out to the creator, a way cooler nod than just a like or a comment. It tells them, "Hey, your stuff matters." And that's a pretty solid boost, encouraging them to keep the awesome content coming, knowing they're making a real impact.
How to repurpose publications ?
Having easy access to your favorite posts, from the coolest brands or the creators you're totally into, opens up a playground of possibilities for content repurposing with a tool like MagicPost.

Sum them up in your upcoming newsletter or spice up your next webinar with them. It's like pulling a rabbit out of a hat—pure magic!
