Best Practices for Using LinkedIn

LinkedIn continues to evolve, constantly adjusting its processes and algorithms to counter automated behavior. To succeed on the Magileads platform , it is essential to understand how it works.

Magileads integrates an alert system for Abnormal behavior

With the Magileads app, in the event of suspicious behavior such as excessive sending of messages or connection requests, security measures are automatically activated. For example, if a limit is reached, Magileads may temporarily block interactions to protect your LinkedIn account. This includes timeout security to ensure compliance with LinkedIn policies.

Magileads: An Undetectable Process

Unlike other tools that rely on Chrome extensions to collect contact records, Magileads uses a unique method. By integrating your LinkedIn account connection cookies into the application, it simulates natural behavior, similar to that you would have when browsing on your smartphone or tablet. This allows LinkedIn to believe that you are the authentic user of your account, reducing the risk of detection.

Our Chrone extension is only used to automate the recovery of your cookies.
In addition, we assign you an IP address which will be dedicated to you

Automation Tool

We advise you to avoid tools that use Chrome extensions, which can jeopardize your account or that of your customers. Magileads is designed to respect the limits imposed by LinkedIn and follow best practices, allowing you to increase your visibility without risking your account.

Use a well-established account

LinkedIn doesn't like new accounts that are looking to connect with lots of people quickly. If your account is new, make sure to fill out all your profile information and increase your network gradually and naturally.

Problems encountered

Weekly Quotas for Sending Invitations Reached

Recently, LinkedIn implemented weekly invitation sending limits. These quotas are not uniform and seem to vary according to several criteria. We do not yet know if this is a test, a progressive update or an algorithm adjusting these quotas based on user behavior.

On the Magileads application, you can limit the number of interactions on your LinkedIn account

Requesting Emails When Sending Invitations

If LinkedIn asks you to provide a contact's email address to send an invitation, this is a sign that you have reached an invitation threshold that is considered too high. This indicates that your invitations are perceived as unsolicited.

Captchas or Email Request at Login

If you encounter captchas or email requests when logging in, it is advisable to stop sending invitation requests for at least 24 hours.

During your prospecting with Magileads, we check on your account the remaining number of messages remaining to be sent per day

Messages Arrived as SPAM

A rarer, but serious restriction occurs when you use an automation tool to send the same message to many people. To check if your messages are SPAM, try sending a message to a loved one and asking them to check.

Deleting Pending Requests

LinkedIn limits pending invitations to 2,000. To avoid restrictions, it is best to delete pending invitation requests regularly.

Magileads includes an option to delete X invitations pending for X days

Pitfalls of LinkedIn

LinkedIn has implemented an algorithm capable of detecting Chrome extensions. This little script checks every 30 minutes for the presence of a prohibited extension. If an extension is detected, LinkedIn is notified, which may result in your account being suspended or banned. It is therefore crucial to use automation tools that comply with LinkedIn policies.

Magileads does not use its extension to browse or retrieve your prospects' files

Conclusion

Using Magileads to automate your prospecting on LinkedIn can offer many advantages, provided you respect the platform's rules. By avoiding risky practices and understanding LinkedIn's constraints, you can maximize your effectiveness while protecting your account.
