For those of us who are often hit by LinkedIn spammers, there is now a new restriction by LinkedIn that limits the maximum number of invitations per week.
Change to the number of invitations sent on Linkedin
LinkedIn recently started limiting the number of invitations people can send per week to 100.
Previously, the maximum number of invitations a user could submit in a week was determined by an algorithm based on their invitation acceptance rate and other account behavior indicators.
This restriction will significantly reduce the number of spammy LinkedIn accounts. When you reach the weekly invitation limit, you receive a message that looks like this:
“You have reached the weekly invite limit. Connections benefit you more when you know them personally, which is why we’ve set weekly limits to encourage top networks.
For people you don’t know, you can follow them to see their posts or send an InMail instead. If you still want to send an invitation, please try again next week. »
Why weekly login limits are a good thing for Linkedin
This will reduce the overall volume/noise on Linkedin.
This means there is less indirect competition to go through to reach prospects. For example, a busy executive who used to get 30 spammy connections a day may now get only about 10.
This will constrain people who do mass and spammy prospecting.
Over the past few years, there has been no shortage of people sending irrelevant messages with bots on Linkedin. These are the people this will is supposed to stop.
Relevant prospecting campaigns will stand out more
As the amount of irrelevant spam decreases, your quality prospecting campaign is more likely to stand out. By being highly targeted, with highly relevant copy, your connections will stand out more (which will increase your connection and overall engagement rates).
