Specificities

LinkedIn accounts, especially classic accounts, typically have a limit of about 100 connection requests per week. This limit can vary depending on the account’s activity and history. If LinkedIn blocks additional connection requests, it’s likely that the account has reached this weekly limit.
For Sales Navigator accounts, there is no fixed limit on connection requests, but to ensure safe usage and avoid any issues, we recommend a routine of 30 invitations per day. This helps maintain a secure activity level and stays within LinkedIn’s guidelines.
