Know how to look at other profiles anonymously. We’ve all been there . . . you want to look someone up on LinkedIn but you don’t want them to see you did so. Is there a way to do this? Yes, there is!
In the Settings & Privacy section, under the Privacy tab, choose Profile Viewing Options.
If you select “Private Mode,” people will only see Anonymous when you have viewed their profile. There is a downside. With a free account, in this mode, you will not be able to see who has viewed your profile.
