Content: How activating the Private Mode on LinkedIn affects the LinkedIn “Who’s viewed your profile” section
The main disadvantage of turning on Private Mode while using LinkedIn is that it erases all the information you have in your LinkedIn “Who’s viewed your profile” section on the site. That means you can no longer see who viewed your profile, so you have no way to connect with all these people. In order to get around this limitation you will have to spend money for LinkedIn premium, and even then you still can’t overcome all the limitations of using the Private Mode feature. Keeping Private Mode on all the time will limit your interactions with others on LinkedIn in a big way. If you’re using the site for networking purposes, this is a major disadvantage of the tool. You’ll lose out on potential conversations, on potential connections and opportunities to create beneficial business relationships. This is the last thing that most business owners or marketing executives want to do on LinkedIn. Is Private Good or Bad for Networking Purposes? Our Conclusion
Generally, keeping your browsing settings open on LinkedIn and avoiding Private Mode is a good practice to follow on LinkedIn. While you show the other users your browsing history, you also open yourself up to the possibility of exciting new connections that you would otherwise miss out on.
