LinkedIn rules, fees and what gets you removed (2026)

checked 2026-10-08

How it works

A professional feed where posts spread through comments from people you know. Posting through the API is open to members, and human-clicked posting is the safe way to use it.

Who is there

Professionals who read for credibility and hiring signals.

Can you automate it?

Careful, rules apply. Draft with your AI helper and post yourself. LinkedIn's own pages could not be read, so this rests on secondary sources.

Good habits

• Post yourself, with your AI helper drafting
• Do not artificially increase engagement (secondary quote of the policies)

What gets accounts or listings removed

• Bots and unauthorised automation (from secondary quotes of the terms)
• Artificially boosting engagement

Ways to earn that use it

• Write and manage X or LinkedIn posts for a busy professional (Worth a try)
