500+ LinkedIn Connections in 30 Days

[TonyStark]

Just bumping this thread to say I totally forgot to log into LinkedIn in the last few weeks.

Logged in, accepted over 300 connection requests, and now have over 10,000 connections.

I still haven’t figured out LinkedIn. It seems a spamfest, although a friend is using some tools to send personal connection requests to CEOs of companies of over 500 employees.

He’s fast approaching the personal limit of 30,000 connections so it will be interesting to see how he purges those connections.


One notable change for me is that I’m not pushing the AdWords freelancer angle as much. I no longer class myself as a freelancer, and I’m no longer a gun-for-hire.

Spamfest for sure.

LinkedIn is becoming more and more distracting, I would suggest as any other social media channel to minimize it and use only the relevant parts of it related to your business needs.

Is there a reason why after sending out a connection request that I see the same people? Whether it is later in the day when I go back on or even when I request them all and a new set pops up some are the same ? Am I missing something? Great thread BTW

I got more than 1k leads by writing articles without adding anyone, they found me from my articles and they added me.

I’m guessing they didn’t see or accept the connection request? I think I saw that before years ago.
