A basic LinkedIn account provides you with the ability to send InMails to three people per month free. If you are looking for a job and trying to connect with new people, three messages does not go very far.
You can pay $49.95 per month to increase that to 2 InMails or $99.95 for $100. What can you do to connect with more people for $0 and still comply with all the rules on LinkedIn? You don’t want to do anything that would be considered “black hat” by LinkedIn either?
Obtaining the ability to connect with people for free is pretty easy on LinkedIn.
All you have to do is join groups.
You are allowed to join as many as 50 groups on LinkedIn and every group you join allows you to connect with all of its members without spending an InMail.
Pick the largest groups to maximize your ability to gain contacts and send connection requests to some of its members
