How to view a LinkedIn profile without them knowing

  1. Copy their profile link from LinkedIn or a Google result.

  2. Paste it and press View profile. You never sign in, so you're not in their profile views.

  3. Read what logged-out visitors see: About, experience, education and posts. Copy profile keeps it.

FAQ

Will they know I viewed their LinkedIn profile?

No. “Who viewed your profile” lists only signed-in members, and you never sign in here.

Why are their headline and past jobs hidden?

LinkedIn hides them from logged-out visitors for most members. Creators and executives often show everything.

Why can't it find a profile?

Some members hide their profile from logged-out visitors. Check the link looks like linkedin.com/in/their-name; an empty lookup is free.

Can I search LinkedIn by name?

Not here. Search Google for their name with site:linkedin.com/in, then paste the link.

Is this LinkedIn profile viewer free?

Yes. No account: 5 free tries a day. A free account gets 100 credits, topped up to 25 daily. Each profile uses one try, or 1 credit with an account.
