Hey guys, I’m looking for insights from people who have real experience with LinkedIn accounts. I’m interested in understanding best practices around account creation and warming. In my case, accounts often get restricted or banned shortly after verification, even when everything looks clean on the surface. I’m trying to figure out what usually triggers these bans and what LinkedIn is most sensitive to during the early stages of an account’s lifecycle. Not asking for anything sketchy — more interested in general principles, common mistakes, and things to pay attention to when building and warming accounts properly. Any insights, patterns, or high-level advice from experienced users would be appreciated.

Newly created accounts will be closed no matter what you do. Buy aged accounts do some good activities for 7-15 days then only you can have em for long else linkedin so strict about newly created accs
 
I think most bans come from rushing actions early, so taking it slow and behaving like a real user helps a lot.
 
I started a few, many of them getting banned. I start up account, I use anti-detection browser, full out profile first day, then firstw eek i just juse auto scroller and like a few posts.
 
From what I’ve seen, LinkedIn flags new or recently verified accounts very easily if activity spikes too fast. Slowing down actions, keeping behavior natural, and avoiding sudden changes (location, device, heavy requests) seems to help reduce restrictions. Gradual growth usually works better than rushing.
 
Honestly, LinkedIn is extra strict with new accounts, especially in the first few weeks.
Most restrictions happen when things move too fast - sending a lot of connection requests, jumping straight into outreach, changing profile details again and again, or logging in from different devices or locations. Even if your info is real, that kind of activity can look suspicious to their system.
What usually works better is just acting... normal.
Set up your profile properly once, then spend some time just scrolling, reacting, and connecting. Add people slowly. Avoid sending sales messages or dropping links right away.
In simple terms, the more your behaviour looks natural and human, the safer your account stays. Most ban happen because the account tries to grow too fast too soon.

Rushing too many actions can trigger the Linkendin's algo to view your account as botted, thus limiting or banning the account. I'd suggest if you have problems with new accounts to buy older ones here on the marketplace.
 
You need ID verified accounts, only ID verified accounts are solid enough for automation in the long term.
 
Early restrictions on LinkedIn usually come down to consistency and pacing. Even if everything looks clean, quick changes in IP, device or timezone, moving too fast right after verification, or profile signals not matching the login environment can trigger extra scrutiny.

If you’re managing accounts at scale, keeping each one in a stable, isolated environment helps a lot. Many teams use an antidetect browser so every account runs in its own clean browser profile with an independent proxy, which reduces linkage risk and keeps sessions more predictable. Some setups also support window sync, making gradual, human-like warming across multiple accounts much easier.
 
New LinkedIn accounts get banned when they act too fast right after verification, it is safer to start slow and act normal.

most LinkedIn restrictions happen right after verification because people rush too fast. The biggest triggers are sending over 20 connection requests per day in the first 2 weeks, jumping straight into DMs or sales messages, and having an incomplete profile with no proper photo, headline or About section. The safest warm-up is to complete your profile 100% first, post one solid value post every 2 days while leaving meaningful comments on 10 other posts daily, then only start sending max 15-20 targeted connections per day after 10-14 days — this makes the account look completely legit and drops the restriction risk dramatically.
 
i had bought accounts and and just buy editing my work history and college it logs me out and then needs me to verify using ID. I'm not even sending requests. So confused.
