LinkedIn Introduces Admin Credits to Limit Spammy Page Invites

Have you ever received a ton of page invites which seems to indicate that the admins of various pages are simply sending these invites to as many people as possible. This is a good way to make it so that pages can get more followers but with all of that having been said and out of the way it is important to note that it really reduces the quality of followers that a page would be able to get and some might say that it is a misuse of the admin privileges that users are able to get once they have ended up becoming the admins of a particular page.

LinkedIn is well aware of this problem, and the social network has attempted to provide a solution to it in a new update. If you are the admin of a page, you would be able to notice now that you have 100 admin credits. Every time you send an invite to a user, you would end up using one of your admin credits. This is essentially limiting the number of invites that any admin would be able to send.

This is a pretty clever way to limit spammy invites and a big part of the reason why that is the case has to do with the fact that admins would now have to be a little discerning about who they end up sending invites to. Rather than sending mass invites they would most likely end up trying to ascertain who would genuinely be interested in whatever it is that they are offering. LinkedIn has an image to maintain, an image that makes it seem like a serious social media platform that people can end up using for things like networking and the like. Techniques like this can help maintain the legitimacy of the platform to a pretty large extent at the end of the day.
