Shruti KaushikPublished third-party figures put LinkedIn ghostwriting at about $500 to $2,000 a month from freelancers, $1,000 to $4,500 from specialist ghostwriters and $1,500 to $10,000+ from agencies. This estimator shows the range for your choices and lists the pages behind it. Wise Mango does not publish prices, so every figure here comes from another company.
Estimate the market range
Per-post figures are scaled by the posts per month you pick. Monthly retainers are shown as published, with the volume each source states. Where no source published a figure, the estimator says so.
Sourced ranges by region and writer type
The same data as the estimator, in full. Low is the lowest sourced figure and high is the highest. "No published figure found" means none of the sources checked published one. Amounts are in US dollars as the sources list them; some sources show "$" without naming the currency.

Methodology
I searched for published LinkedIn ghostwriting prices and used only figures from pages I opened and read on 12 November 2026. Sources are pricing guides, comparison pages, an agency directory and agency pricing pages of other companies. Wise Mango's and Shruti Kaushik's own prices are not used and are not stated anywhere on this page.
Each cell is filled only from figures a source published for that writer type and region, using the provider's published location for the region cells. Low is the lowest sourced figure, high is the highest. Per-post figures are the only ones multiplied by posts per month. Monthly retainers are never scaled, because they cover whatever volume the source stated. Nothing is extrapolated or adjusted. Where a source quotes another company (MagicPost quotes Windmill Growth, Creator and Foundera), the table names both.
Limits: sources use different scopes, some price per profile or include engagement and ads, writer-type labels are the sources' own tiers mapped to freelancer, specialist ghostwriter and agency (entry and starter tiers to freelancer, mid and senior tiers to specialist), and the directory converts GBP and EUR to USD. One India all-channel social media guide was read but not used, because it did not price LinkedIn ghostwriting. These are published estimates, not a market survey.
Common questions
How much does LinkedIn ghostwriting cost per month?
Published third-party figures run from about $500 to $1,500 a month for freelancers, $1,000 to $3,000 for SaaS-focused ghostwriters and $1,500 to $5,000 for mid-tier agencies, with full-service programmes at $3,000 to $10,000 or more, according to Sproutworth. Other published sources overlap these ranges.
How does the estimator calculate its range?
Low is the lowest sourced figure for the selected writer type and region, and high is the highest. Per-post figures are multiplied by the posts per month you choose. Monthly retainers are shown exactly as published, with the post volume each source states, because they are not per-post prices.
Why does a cell say no published figure found?
Because none of the sources checked on 12 November 2026 published a figure for that combination of writer type and region. The estimator does not guess or extrapolate.
How much does LinkedIn ghostwriting cost in India?
No source checked published an India figure for freelancers or specialist ghostwriters. For agencies, Ghostwriter Index lists Concurate (India) at a $3,000 monthly minimum and Onfolio lists $5,000 to $7,500 a month for the same agency. Gliped says dedicated retainers in India commonly start around ₹50,000 a month.
How much does LinkedIn ghostwriting cost in the UK and Europe?
Agencies listed by Ghostwriter Index with UK or German locations publish monthly minimums from $390 to $4,600 (converted by the directory from GBP and EUR). Column Content in London lists packages from $2,000 a month. No UK or European figure for freelancers or specialist ghostwriters was found.
Are these quotes?
No. They are published estimates, minimums and package prices from other companies, often at different scopes, and they change. Use them as a reference when you scope your own project.
What does Wise Mango charge?
Wise Mango does not publish prices and none appear in this estimator. Pricing is scoped after discovery and shared in a written proposal.
