Why You Need LinkedIn Premium to See Profile Viewers

At least LinkedIn Premium to see them

If you're using the free LinkedIn plan, you’re only allowed to see a few recent viewers and most of them will appear as “Anonymous LinkedIn Member”.

To fully unlock the list of people who visited your profile, you need a Premium plan.

With LinkedIn Premium, you’ll be able to:

• See up to 90 days of profile viewers

• Know exactly who’s checking your page

• Spot patterns and trends in your profile traffic

It’s a powerful way to discover new leads or identify people interested in your offer.

If you want to go one step further and actually filter properly these viewers, you’ll need Sales Navigator.

Sales Navigator lets you:

• Apply advanced filters (job title, company, location, etc.)

• Find out which viewers are worth contacting

• Get an alert when a lead viewed your profile.

• Create lists of leads

• Identify decision makers

How to See Your Profile Viewers Using LinkedIn Sales Navigator

Sales Navigator is where things get interesting.

You can apply advanced filters, segment your contacts, and access way more valuable data than what you get from LinkedIn.

🎥 If you don't know how to use Sales Navigator, no problem. You can check this in-depth tutorial:

Now it's time for a step-by-step guide to see your profile viewers using Sales Navigator.

Step 1: Go to the Lead Filter page

When you're on the homepage on LinkedIn Sales Navigator, you just have to click on "Lead filters".

This filter will show only people who visited your profile in the last 90 days—so you can focus only on warm leads.

Step 2: Click on the "Viewed your profile recently" Filter

As you can see, there are a lot of advanced filters on this lead page.

The one you’re looking for is “Viewed your profile recently”. This filter lets you see people who's viewed your profile in the last 90 days.

Step 3: Split your search

With Sales Navigator, you can only see 2500 results. That's part of the LinkedIn limits.

So if you have more than 2500 people who viewed your profile recently, you need to split your search into several chunks.

The best way to do that is to use some filters like:

• Company headcount

• Geography

• Years of experience

• Years in current company

• Etc

Then, you save your searches in lead lists.

Once set up, you'll get a fresh list of leads every week — automatically.

Each lead is unique, and the system ensures there are no duplicates. This saves you time and keeps your CRM clean, so you can focus on outreach, not data cleaning.

Then, you’ll automatically receive new leads every week — no manual work needed.

You can focus 100% on what really matters: sending emails, starting LinkedIn conversations, and booking meetings.

💡 Pro tip: With scheduled exports, you can easily build lead files with more than 2,500 fresh, qualified contacts delivered straight to your inbox every week.

Step 6: Download your leads file

When your export is finished, you’ll receive an email with a download link.

You can also download your file directly by clicking the "Download" button in your dashboard. You’ll see two options.

1. "Open in Sheets"

This gives you a simple version of your lead list.

You have:

• Source (Sales Navigator, 1st-degree, profile viewers…)

• First Name

• Last Name

• Profile picture

• Company name

• Job title

• Headline

• LinkedIn URL

• Email

It doesn’t include all the data, but it’s perfect if you just want to import leads into your CRM or a B2B outreach tool like Lemlist or Expandi.

2. "Download CSV"

This gives you the full file with all available data. For each lead, you’ll see extra info like:

• Whether they have LinkedIn Premium

• Their total years of experience

• Company details like size, industry, and location

• Etc

Here's all the informations you can have:

💡 Pro tip: Don’t forget to scroll horizontally — there's a lot of valuable data in your lead file, including job titles, company size, verified emails, and even intent signals.

On top of that, GiveMeLeads automatically cleans your data:

• Fixes capital letters in names and job titles

• Removes emojis from job titles

• Removes legal suffixes in company names (like LLC, GmbH, etc.)

GiveMeLeads also checks if each lead matches your LinkedIn Sales Navigator filters.

If a lead doesn’t fit — for example, they have:

• An invalid job title

• Invalid location

• Wrong company size work

• Etc

We tag them in the column "filters" with the reason they’re invalid (like “Invalid job title” or “Wrong company size”).

That way, you keep full control of your data and don’t waste time guessing why a lead doesn’t match your targeting.

Advanced Techniques to Find Qualified Leads in Your Profile Viewers

Here are 2 advanced techniques I want to show you to leverage your profile viewers on LinkedIn.

1. Filter the best leads in your profile viewers

2. Create a lead search

Filter the best leads in your profile viewers

You probably don’t want to contact everyone who’s viewed your profile. Some may be students, competitors, or irrelevant.

To get qualified leads, apply filters like:

• Current job title (use boolean operators to get better results)

• Company headcount (11+ employees)

• Industry

• Geography

• Etc

That helps you focus only on people who are likely to be customers.

Create a Saved Search

After filtering your profile viewers, save your search inside Sales Navigator.

That way, any time a new qualified lead views your profile, you’ll get notified.

💡 Pro tip: It’s a great way to automate lead generation from passive traffic.
