How to Hack LinkedIn's Search Limits 2022
WHAT COUNTS TOWARD THE LIMIT
Linkedin Tricks and Hacks 1: LinkedIn won’t say what the limit is, but it does say it’s calculated based on how much searching of profiles you do and how many people’s profiles you open, especially those outside your first-degree network. Here’s what specifically counts toward it:
- Searches you do on LinkedIn.com and the LinkedIn mobile app using keywords and filters. Like here, I’m searching for chemical engineers in the Greater Philadelphia region.
- Browsing profiles when you’re on a company page, like here
- Browsing profiles shown in the People Also Viewed section.
- It’s also possible that if you’re running LinkedIn searches through third-party apps, they’re viewing accounts in the background and might also cause you to hit the limit.
WHAT DOESN’T COUNT TOWARD THE LIMIT
- Browsing profiles in “People you may know” just below People Also Viewed, like here
- Browsing your first-degree connections if it’s through the connections page. So if you click on My Network and then Connections on the next page, you’re fine.
- Typing in someone’s name directly into the search bar
- Also, you can search for as many jobs as you want in LinkedIn, like here
HACK: GOOGLE
Linkedin Tricks and Hacks 2: The first hack is to access LinkedIn search through Google. This works if you’re looking for people with a particular title who work at a particular company. Just type:
“title – company” LinkedIn
Then once you find a person who interests you, click on the link, and technically you didn’t do any browsing on LinkedIn.
HACK: RIGHT-CLICK TRICK
Linkedin Tricks and Hacks 3: but now let’s say you don’t know which company you want, or you need to do a different type of search. So this next hack helps you get partially around the limit. Do a regular search on LinkedIn, but then, instead of left clicking on the person’s name here, do a right click and open a link in a new tab. So now you’re not browsing profiles from your search.
Or if you want, once you see who you want, just open a new tab and type in their name in the search bar, although that works better if they have an unusual name that’s easy to find. If they have a common name, you’ll want to also add what company they work for so you can narrow it down. For instance, my brother-in-law in Bill Smith. If I weren’t connected to him on LinkedIn but wanted to make sure I found him, I’d type in Bill Smith New Castle County Board of Realtors.
HACK: TOPICS BY HASHTAGS
Linkedin Tricks and Hacks 4: Let’s say you want to search for people who are interested in a particular topic, perhaps because they work in that field. What shouldn’t count toward the limit is browsing profiles of people who comment on posts or react to posts about that topic. You can search for posts by hashtags in this case.
HACK: SEARCH URL
Linkedin Tricks and Hacks 5: In this case, you’re minimizing how many search pages you open up from the initial search page. So start your initial search. Once the results show, look at the page’s URL. At the very end of the URL, where there's a word in all camps, add the following:
&page=X (X= page number you want to reach/search)
If I want to look at page 2 I would write the following:
&page=2
POWER TIP!
Linkedin Tricks and Hacks 6: Remember that when you’re doing all these searches for all new people, don’t forget about the people you’re already connected to. We’re often so focused on getting that new lead, that we forget to nurture the connections we already have. Why always start from scratch when you already have a network that’s at least semi-warmed up to speaking with you, or continuing the conversation, because you’re already connected? So nurture those first-degree connections!
