Yes you can get freelance work on LinkedIn , I am currently using LinkedIn as client acquisition machine. It was really awesome and lot of quality leads.
Can we get freelancing work from Linkedin?

I was wondering as well.
Are you asking people to work for free?
Are you freelancing without paying Odesk their rediculous cut?

LinkedIn is full of opportunities for finding clients for your services, and also finding freelances for your own needs. Just be clear on what you want and who you want to target.

Just a quick question, If you are already working full time and listed in your linkedin. Would it not make you be in conflict with your current employer? because you are looking for freelance work but you are listed as having full time employment.
LinkedIn can be a powerful marketing tool. People who use it are looking for connections that will pan out into a business opportunity, which makes it an ideal platform for finding new clients. Incidentally, LinkedIn has been stepping up their freelancer game as of late.

Yes, Connect with the right people. Take one premium membership (atleast a month free trial) and connect with as much as possible. Then cancel the subscription. Be active on relevant threads.

I have managed to get one client from there in my career. So, yes it is possible. But, I think you will have a much better chance of getting a project from freelance sites than this pointless netwrk (really lol.. why do people even use LI? It's totally pointless lmao).

Yes, you can get freelancing work through this platform if you start practicing the following things:
1. Complete your profile, add your experiences, skills, work portfolio, etc.
2. The next step is, start connecting with people from the relevant industry.
3. Connect with HR.
4. Text your connections and ask if they have any work for you.
5. Daily Check your feed, people do post freelancing jobs. Apply for the same and connect with them if you haven't yet.
6. Remain active, post valuable content.
7. Use hashtags in your post to increase the reach; sometimes, people directly approach you for the work.
All the best. Let me know if you have any questions, you can either PM or ask here, I will be happy to assist you.

Firstly, it depends on what kind of gig you're looking for, and where your potential customers are.
If you're doing b2b stuff Linkedin will work. Or you can try upwork.
