Managing multiple LinkedIn accounts—whether for a sales team, multiple clients, or your own diverse projects—is notoriously difficult. LinkedIn’s security measures are designed to prevent account sharing. Here are the safest and most efficient ways to handle multiple sessions.
1. The Browser Profile Method (Safest)
Most modern browsers (Chrome, Edge, Brave) allow you to create separate “Profiles.” Each profile has its own history, cookies, and saved passwords.
- How to do it: Click your user icon in the top right of your browser → Add Profile.
- Benefits: This is the most “human” behavior according to LinkedIn. You can have five different profiles open in five separate windows without them interfering with each other.
2. Dedicated Multi-Account Browsers
If you are an agency managing 10+ accounts, standard browser profiles become overwhelming. Tools like MultiLogin or SessionBox create isolated environments for every tab.
- How to do it: These are paid tools or extensions that spoof your browser fingerprint to make every session look like it’s coming from a unique computer.
- Pro Tip: Always pair these with a high-quality proxy or dedicated IP to avoid being flagged for “suspicious location.”
3. LinkedIn Management Platforms
Professional services like Linked Guerilla handle the technical burden for you. Instead of logging in yourself, you use a dashboard to monitor activity across your entire organization.
- Benefits: You never risk a security lockout, and you don’t have to share passwords with your team members.
Best Practices for Multi-Account Safety
- Never Use One Browser for Two Accounts: Using one account in “Regular Mode” and another in “Incognito” can sometimes leak data across sessions, leading to an account ban.
- Enable 2FA on Every Profile: Use an authenticator app (like Google Authenticator) for each account to ensure you can get in even if LinkedIn requests verification.
- Space Out Your Activity: Don’t perform the exact same actions (like sending the same message) on five accounts at the exact same minute.
Conclusion
The right setup depends on your scale. For 2–3 accounts, browser profiles are perfect. For larger teams, you need a dedicated management strategy. Protect your accounts by ensuring every session is isolated and looks like natural human behavior.
