I believe you, but I have a standard account and run lots of searches (maybe a couple hundred a month?) without running into this issue. I expect by 'several' you must be doing several hundred searches a month to get that issue, or scrolling through lots of profiles (looking at 10 pages of results for each search).
I often do searches as an exercise with clients live, and I use the filters (location, title, etc.) to try and target results so I'm not scrolling through pages of profiles.
- jcomis 7y agoFar, far less. Search a company like "Airbnb", view employees, filter the results by geo, job title, whatever, and parse through the pages. Do this a few times with different companies and you get blocked. I don't do this often, certainly less than 20 times per month, and hit the paygate. Perhaps they have different limits for different accounts, but I have never, ever conducted hundreds of searches.
- fecak 7y agoThat's interesting. I know I'm well over 20 a month on searches like that. I'd wonder if they base it on other things (like connections). I did have a paid account in the past, but it's been a few years since I opted for the free one.
- hysan 7y agoIt’s possible they have an A/B test running to see if limiting searches increases Premium subscription conversion. You’re probably in the control bucket.
