In this article, you’ll learn about the measures we take to ensure your LinkedIn account is secure while you use automation.
LinkedIn takes spammy and unnatural behavior on its platform seriously, flagging any account that behaves contrary to its standards.
When you use the LinkedIn Automation, Snov.io implements measures to ensure safety and avoid triggering automation detectors.
How Snov.io protects your LinkedIn account
The primary goal of the protection measures Snov.io takes is to imitate human behavior in your automated LinkedIn sequences.
Here’s what we do to ensure your account’s safety:
1. The automation operates on cloud-based servers and uses location-based proxies to improve security and performance.
We use location-based proxies to enhance the safety of your account by assigning a dedicated IP address. You can adjust the location settings up to three times per month to match your current location.
This reduces the likelihood of your activities appearing suspicious, as your account actions will originate from your usual login location.
2. We automatically apply safe daily limits for LinkedIn activities.
When you connect your LinkedIn account to Snov.io, we automatically detect your SSI score and recommend daily action limits based on this value.
The default daily limits are set to 20 for each action: 20 profile views, 20 connection requests, 20 messages, and 20 likes. Once these limits are reached, the automation will pause until the next day.

3. Warm-up mode for LinkedIn accounts.
This feature gradually increases the number of connection requests sent by your automation until it reaches the maximum recommended limit.
This action is the one that requires a careful approach, as LinkedIn may restrict your account for sending too many invitations right away.
With warm-up mode, you’ll grow engagement and connect with more leads without a risk of being blocked.

4. The automation helps improve your Social Selling Index (SSI) score on LinkedIn.
Using automation for activities can boost your LinkedIn Social Selling Index (SSI) score, which shows how reputable, trustworthy, and effective your account is.
We detect this score and add it to your account details on Snov.io, so you can track it directly within our platform and safely scale your LinkedIn outreach.
As your SSI score improves, your recommended daily limit for activities on LinkedIn also increases.

5. Schedule for LinkedIn campaigns.
Your LinkedIn sequences are executed according to the schedule you set, with human-like delays.
In the automation settings, you can pick when you want the activities to happen, like when you’re usually online or when your leads are most active.
The automation will stick to this schedule and only do actions at the set times.
This helps in making the automated actions appear more natural and match your usual activity patterns.
Even if you don’t set a schedule, the actions will be spread out through the day at a natural pace.
6. While your automation is running, we use a system that alternates actions between two types of devices: desktop and mobile.
This approach not only mimics the usual way people use different devices but also optimizes the use of your daily limits, as LinkedIn tracks device usage separately.
This also means you reserve more of your daily limit for manual activities you do on LinkedIn.
7. Dynamic content and Spintax to make your messages personalized and unique.
Spintax and Dynamic content are variables that can vary your message text and personalize it based on recipient’s details. This mimics natural writing and helps avoid the repetitive patterns that can alert LinkedIn’s detection systems.
