You can download LinkDeal's Chrome extension on your Chrome (or other Chromium) browser. As it runs from your computer directly, you don't need to worry about LinkDeal causing issues with your LinkedIn account.
There are a lot of LinkedIn automation tools that use proxies which could be detected by LinkedIn, who may put a temporary or permanent ban on your account. LinkDeal does not currently use this type of technology and respects the limits imposed on actions by LinkedIn, such as connection requests, profile views and more.
When you download and install the Chrome Extension, the LinkDeal icon will initially show in your Chrome Extensions toolbar. For ease of identifying it, be sure to right-click and Pin it to your toolbar.
If you see this message when installing the Chrome Extension, do not worry! Continue to install it as normal. LinkDeal is new and is waiting for its approval from Google, this will likely take a few more weeks.
You'll be sent an email from LinkDeal when your Chrome Extension and LinkedIn accounts are connected successfully. You'll also be sent an email if it becomes disconnected for some reason (logging out of LinkedIn, LinkDeal or clearing your cache) to let you know to connect again.
When you've set up LinkDeal correctly, it will run in the background without interrupting you. When active with making connections, LinkDeal opens a background, pinned LinkedIn tab in your browser when it's running. You don't need to do anything, just leave LinkDeal to do its thing. Please be sure to leave this tab open though!
When you click on the Chrome Extension, it loads a simple interface showing you the number of outstanding connection requests it needs to process, as well as the number of successful connections it has already made.
You can turn off LinkDeal by switching the green toggle switch in the top-right corner.
If you are experiencing issues with LinkDeal, please click on the icon in the extension interface (shown inside the red box) and this will download two log files. Please be sure to send these files to us via the Live Chat widget or to help@linkdeal.io.
