Once the limit of 500 profiles is done for today, how do I continue to grab the left over profiles next day through LinkedIn?
This article will serve as a guide to help you continue grabbing information from LinkedIn profiles.
When you reach your daily limit of 500 profiles per day, you can continue to grab the remaining profiles in the next following days.
LinkedIn has 25 profiles per page, the 500th profile will be on the 20th page. For the daily limit of 500 profiles per day, start at page 1 and stop your grabbing at page 20. For the next day begin your grab from the 21st page and end the day at the 40th page and for the next following day start your grab at the 41st page and end your search at the 60th page and so on.
Manually keeping track of the page number it finished on
If you wish to manually keep track of where the LeadGrabber stopped, you can follow these steps
Save the link of the search result weblink(URL) in a word document or notepad for future reference.
If you start grabbing finish it off before you move to the next search because you might get duplicates.
LinkedIn does not allow you to view more than 2500 searches in a search result
Even if the search result shows you more than 4000 to 5000 results, you will only be able to see the first 2500 results.
Use more search filters to bring the search result lower than 2500.
