  Hi there,

  Publicize is indeed a free feature on WordPress.com that allows you to share your post on your social media channels right when you publish your post on your site.

  To set up publicize so that your WordPress.com site is connected to your Linkedin account, please follow the instructions on our support page:

  https://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#linkedin

  Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!

  I’m connected to LinkedIn but how do I connect to Publicize if I’m already on LinkedIn? I did check the link out.

  Hi there,

  I checked your account here and saw that your WordPress.com site is connected to your Linkedin account via publicize, so whenever you make a post, it should show up under your linkedin account.

  Hope this helps, but please let me know if you have any questions.
