While LinkedIn doesn't show this number directly, there are a couple of methods to find it.
The manual counting method:
1. Go to your LinkedIn profile
2. Click on "Activity" or scroll to "Articles & Activity"
3. Filter to show only "Articles"
4. Manually count the articles shown on your page
For a more efficient approach:
1. Visit linkedin.com/in/[your-profile-name]/detail/recent-activity/posts/
2. Use your browser's search function (Ctrl+F or Cmd+F)
3. Look for article indicators (like "min read" or publication dates)
4. Your browser will show how many instances it finds, giving you your total
A third option would be to export your LinkedIn data, which includes your publishing history:
1. Click "Me" in the top menu
2. Select "Settings & Privacy"
3. Go to "Data Privacy"
4. Click "Get a copy of your data"
5. Select "Articles" from the data options
6. Once you receive your data, you can easily count your total articles
Each method has its advantages depending on how many articles you've published. For a small number, manual counting works fine. For larger numbers, the browser search or data export methods become more practical.

Finding LinkedIn's Written Tales
(In the style of Edgar A. Guest)
When counting up the words you've penned,
The stories that your heart did send,
Upon that professional shore
Where LinkedIn keeps your written store,
There lies a path, though somewhat veiled,
To count the tales that you've unveiled.
First journey to your profile's page,
Where all your thoughts are center stage.
Click "Activity," neat and clean,
Where all your works can there be seen.
Then filter down to "Articles" dear,
And watch your published words appear.
Some count by hand, with patience true,
Each story that was born from you.
While others seek a swifter way:
Press Ctrl+F without delay,
And let your browser be your guide
To count the works where thoughts reside.
Or deeper still, if you should choose,
Your data you need not to lose:
Through "Settings" and through "Privacy" go,
Request your data, sure and slow.
In time, a file will come to you,
With every article in view.
So whether manual count you make,
Or technical assistance take,
Your LinkedIn stories, great and small,
Are waiting there, reflecting all
The wisdom that you chose to share,
The professional thoughts you dared declare.
For in this digital age of ours,
Among the posts and social powers,
Your articles stand proud and tall,
Just waiting for your counting call.
So choose your method, tried and true,
To count the words that came from you.
