How Freelancers Are Using PostSmithAI to Dominate LinkedIn — And Why It Beats Taplio
It all started with a slow Tuesday afternoon.
A freelance digital marketer stared at a blinking cursor inside a blank LinkedIn post draft. The ideas were there — floating in the mind — but getting them into a format that was both insightful and engaging felt impossible. The algorithm demanded consistency. Clients demanded visibility.
Enter PostSmithAI — a simple yet powerful tool that changed everything.
Why LinkedIn Matters More Than Ever for Freelancers
LinkedIn has become a digital lifeline for freelancers. From client leads to collaboration opportunities, it's no longer just a resume platform — it's a storytelling arena.
But maintaining an engaged presence is tough. Writing original content, commenting insightfully, and staying consistent is a demanding task for a solo professional.
“Freelancers who post 2–3 times a week on LinkedIn see 3x more inbound leads compared to those who don’t engage at all.” — Internal survey, 2023
This is where PostSmithAI steps onto the stage.
Meet PostSmithAI: The LinkedIn Content Engine for the Self-Employed
PostSmithAI is an AI-powered platform built to help freelancers and solopreneurs create meaningful, high-quality LinkedIn posts and comments in minutes.
Write Like a Thought Leader, Without the Overwhelm
PostSmithAI’s obsession with context is what sets it apart. You define your niche, voice, and goals. The AI then shapes content to feel like you wrote it — not a robot from a click farm.
Whether you're a digital marketer sharing SEO insights, an HR consultant discussing remote hiring trends, a copywriter critiquing ad copy, or a consultant decoding strategy — it's all tailored.
The Power of Smart Commenting
Engagement doesn’t end at posting. PostSmithAI suggests relevant comments on trending posts in your niche, matched to your tone. Commenting is one of the easiest ways to grow visibility, but it often gets ignored by busy professionals.
Not anymore.
PostSmithAI vs Taplio: A Freelancer’s Perspective
Many freelancers first try Taplio — and while it’s feature-rich, it often feels too corporatized. The UX leans toward busy sales teams and LinkedIn influencers who want to scale fast, not freelance creatives seeking authenticity.
Here’s How PostSmithAI Stands Out
- Authenticity over automation: PostSmithAI offers creative control. You collaborate with the AI instead of letting it dictate the voice.
- Freelancer-first templates: Taplio’s content banks are often generic. PostSmithAI is curated for freelancers — with storytelling prompts, behind-the-scenes ideas, and relatable opinion post structures.
- Comment assistant: Unlike Taplio, PostSmithAI provides AI-generated comment drafts that adapt to tone, topic, and audience.
- Budget-friendly: Taplio's pricing is steep, especially for solopreneurs. PostSmithAI offers lean plans built around individual needs.
“PostSmithAI doesn’t just generate LinkedIn posts — it helps you find your digital voice.” — Freelancer Feedback Report, 2024
Multiple Niches, One Tool
Freelancers wear many hats, often juggling multiple roles. PostSmithAI accommodates that. You can shift from HR content to startup advice with remarkable fluidity.
In fact, it’s already being used by:
- HR consultants crafting DEI stories
- Marketing freelancers sharing growth experiments
- Copywriters publishing ad critique breakdowns
Tips for Using PostSmithAI Effectively
- Set a consistent voice: Use the persona editor to establish how you want to sound — casual, insightful, or bold.
- Start with frameworks: PostSmithAI offers starter prompts like “Lessons learned,” “Behind the scenes,” or “Client win.” Great for beating writer’s block.
- Batch your content: Create 2–3 posts at a time. You'll thank yourself later in the week.
- Reply daily: Use the comment assistant to engage on your feed. Relationships build through interaction, not just posting.
- Mix it up: Publish a mix of personal stories, industry takes, and tips. PostSmithAI can categorize your posts to ensure variety.

After scheduling just 5 posts with PostSmithAI, a freelance UX strategist started getting DMs from product founders. They weren’t pitch-heavy posts — just casual observations inspired by client work. By week three, four projects landed.
