LinkedIn shows you a number, then refuses to say what it means. Members reached, profile appearances, impressions, and why did it just tell my whole network I changed jobs. This page is the index to 28 guides I've written on LinkedIn, grouped by what you're trying to do: read your stats, control what your network sees, get more reach from posts, fix a restricted account, or decide on Premium. Each guide answers one question with the exact setting or step.
How to use this page
Scan the headings for your situation and open the one guide that matches. Each guide answers a single question, so you get the steps without a 4,000-word read. If the problem is technical, work the fixes section top to bottom: the guides are ordered by how often each cause is the real one.

Frequently asked questions
Why does LinkedIn show my job update to my network?
Because Share profile updates with your network is on by default. Turn it off in Settings, Visibility, Share profile updates with your network before you edit the job, not after; the change guides above walk through the order.
Does LinkedIn post my work anniversary automatically?
LinkedIn does not post it, but it sends a notification to your connections inviting them to congratulate you, which looks like a post. The same visibility toggle above controls it.
What does members reached mean on a LinkedIn post?
The number of unique people who saw the post at least once. Impressions count every view, so one person scrolling past twice is two impressions and one member reached.
Want AI doing the heavy lifting in your marketing?
I build the systems that handle the boring 80 percent, so you get your week back. Done properly, with the human kept in.
Why is my LinkedIn account restricted?
Usually too many connection requests or profile views in a short time, a login from a new device flagged as automation, or a reported post. The restriction guides above cover the appeal form and how long each type takes.
Is LinkedIn Premium worth it?
For active job seekers and salespeople who send InMail every week, yes for a month or two; for everyone else the free tier does the job. The Premium guide above breaks down each plan by who it pays for.
