LinkedIn is a social network for professionals. It allows users to connect with other professionals in their field, share content, and find job opportunities. LinkedIn also offers premium memberships that provide access to additional features, such as expanded search options and InMail messages.
What is LinkedIn and how does it work
LinkedIn is a business-oriented social networking service. It is mainly used for professional networking, including employers posting jobs and job seekers posting their resumes. LinkedIn allows members (both workers and employers) to create profiles and “connections” to each other in an online social network which may represent real-world professional relationships. Members can invite anyone (whether a site member or not) to become a connection. However, if the invitee selects “I don’t know” or “Spam”, this counts against the invitee.
What are the different types of LinkedIn memberships
There are three different types of LinkedIn memberships: free, premium, and business.
- Free membership: With a free membership, you can create a profile, connect with other professionals, and access some of LinkedIn’s basic features.
- Premium membership: LinkedIn premium members have access to additional features, such as expanded search options and InMail messages. Premium memberships cost $29.99 per month, billed annually.
- Business membership: LinkedIn business members have access to everything that free and premium members have, plus additional features designed for businesses, such as company pages and analytics. Business memberships start at $59.99 per month, billed annually.
How to deactivate linkedIn premium
If you’re interested in downgrading your LinkedIn account from premium to free, or if you’re cancelling your subscription altogether, here’s how to do it in under a minute. First, log in to your LinkedIn account and click on the “Me” icon at the top of the page. Then, click on “Settings and privacy” from the drop-down menu. On the next page, scroll down to the “Premium membership” section and click on “Manage your premium membership.” Finally, click on “Cancel premium membership” and confirm your decision by clicking “Continue to cancellation.”
There are a few things to keep in mind before you cancel your LinkedIn Premium subscription. First, you’ll lose access to all of the features and benefits that come with a premium account, including the ability to send InMail messages, see who’s viewed your profile, and get expanded search results. Second, you’ll still be charged for the remainder of your current billing cycle. So, if you have a yearly subscription, you’ll be charged for the remaining 11 months even after you cancel. And finally, LinkedIn does offer a 14-day money-back guarantee, so if you cancel within that window, you’ll receive a full refund.
