Invitations to follow a LinkedIn Page

Last updated: 7 months ago

You can grow the followers of a Page by inviting your 1st-degree connections to follow the Page. We recommend that Pages have at least 150 followers to help optimize growth, and invitations can help you reach your follower goals. We recommend only sending invitations to connections who are likely to be interested in the Page. The person who receives the invitation can see the name of the person who sent the invite.

Members can opt out of receiving invitations to follow Pages from their Data Privacy settings. Members can also turn off invitation notifications from their notification settings.

Pages you manage 

To invite connections to follow a Page that you manage, you must be a super or content admin. Pages are granted monthly invitation credits which are shared across all admins of the Page. With a Premium Company Page subscription, you can also grow your followers by automatically inviting members who engaged with your content to follow your Page.

Your employer’s Page 

If you aren’t an admin of a Page, you can invite up to 30 of your 1st-degree connections to follow your employer’s Page each month. 

Other Pages

If you aren’t the admin or employee of a Page, you can invite up to 50 of your 1st-degree connections each month to follow Pages that have fewer than 5,000 followers.

Here's a tip

If you receive an error message when you send an invite, you might have reached your monthly invitation credit limit. If you reach your credit limit, you’ll need to wait until the first day of the next month for the credits to renew. When someone accepts your invitation, that credit is returned to your balance.
