# Best LinkedIn tools for freelancers (2026)

> For a freelancer, the best combo in 2026: comment on the right prospects (LinkHub) and turn that engagement into leads via the lead-magnet technique (LinkMagnet).

*By Yannis Haismann, Founder of LinkHub · Reviewed by LinkHub editorial team · Updated 2026-06-24*

## Quick answer
The best LinkedIn tool for a freelancer in 2026 is LinkHub (24 €/month): it helps you comment on the right prospects via feeds and lists, with an AI in your style that you approve — the channel that brings clients without a big audience (our study of 657,722 comments shows a 20-50 comments/day sweet spot). Right behind, LinkMagnet (29 €/month) automates the lead-magnet technique to turn that engagement into qualified prospects. For authority through posts, LinkPost; on budget, Commenter.ai or MyFeedIn. LinkHub, LinkPost and LinkMagnet are our products (disclosure).

## Key takeaways
- LinkHub #1: commenting on the right prospects = clients without a big audience.
- LinkMagnet: the lead-magnet technique to convert engagement into leads.
- LinkPost for authority via posts; Commenter.ai / MyFeedIn on budget.
- Key data: 20-50 comments/day sweet spot (study of 657,722 comments).

## Ranking criteria
- Does it generate clients (targeting the right prospects, conversion)?
- Budget: freelancer-friendly (free, low price, ROI)?
- AI quality: authentic tone or generic?
- Control & compliance: human validation or risky auto-post?
- Time: fits ~15 min/day?

## FAQ
### What’s the best LinkedIn tool for a freelancer just starting out?
LinkHub, to start commenting on the right prospects without a big audience, with a free 7-day trial. On a minimal budget, Commenter.ai or MyFeedIn are decent entry points. And to turn engagement into leads, LinkMagnet applies the lead-magnet technique.

### Does commenting on LinkedIn really bring freelancers clients?
Yes, provided you comment on the RIGHT profiles and consistently. Our study of 657,722 comments puts the sweet spot around 20-50 comments per day. Commenting is faster to produce than a post and less competitive — hence its effectiveness for a solo (see our guide “finding clients through comments”).

### Are there free LinkedIn tools for freelancers?
evyAI and EngageAI offer a free tier, AuthoredUp a free trial. LinkHub offers a free 7-day trial (then 24 €/month) and a free tool, the “Top 1000 creators to comment on” (Goldmine). See our ranking of free LinkedIn tools for details.

### Should a freelancer comment or post?
Both are complementary, but commenting pays off faster when you have no audience (LinkHub). Posting builds authority over time (LinkPost). Our “comment vs post” study breaks down the compared ROI.
