The short answer
In India, LinkedIn ghostwriting typically costs ₹12,000 to ₹50,000 a month for posts only, ₹40,000 to ₹1.2 lakh with strategy and profile work, and ₹1 lakh or more for full management. Globally, expect roughly $500 to $1,500, $1,500 to $5,000 and $5,000 to $15,000+ for the same tiers.
How the estimate works
The calculator uses the market ranges from our LinkedIn ghostwriting cost guide, which compiles published rate cards and pricing guides from agencies and freelancers in 2026. Posting volume moves you within the range, and executive or compliance-heavy work moves it up.
| Scope | India, per month | Global, per month |
|---|---|---|
| Posts only | ₹12,000 to ₹50,000 | $500 to $1,500 |
| Posts, strategy and profile | ₹40,000 to ₹1,20,000 | $1,500 to $5,000 |
| Full management and engagement | ₹1 lakh to ₹5 lakh+ | $5,000 to $15,000+ |
What drives the price
- How your voice is captured. An interview-based process costs more than a writer working from a brief, and sounds far more like you.
- Engagement work. Daily commenting, connection strategy and DM triage are where most of the time goes.
- Seniority and review. CXO content with legal or comms review takes longer to approve and write.
- Formats. Carousels and video scripts add design and editing time.
