Default daily limits and automation speed in STACKED

When you start using STACKED, powered by Dux-Soup, recommended daily limits and automation speeds are already configured for you.

These defaults are designed to keep automation at sensible levels while you get started. In most cases, we recommend leaving the default settings unchanged, particularly when using a new LinkedIn account or starting LinkedIn automation for the first time.

Default automation speed

By default, STACKED uses conservative speed and throttling settings:

• Profile visit speed: Random mode - between 25 and 125 profiles per hour
• Profile scanning speed: Fast - approximately 6 pages per minute
• Automatic pauses: STACKED pauses for 5 minutes after every 20 profile visits

These settings vary the pace of automation rather than processing every action at a constant speed.

Recommended daily profile visit limits

The recommended number of profile visits depends on the LinkedIn product you use:

By default, profile visits are set to Detect: Leave it to us.

With this setting enabled, STACKED detects the LinkedIn account type and applies the appropriate profile visit limit automatically.

Connection request limits

The default connection request limit is 20 connection requests per day.

If you’re just starting your LinkedIn lead generation activity, you may want to begin even lower, at around 5–10 connection requests per day, and increase your activity gradually.

Your connection acceptance rate is also worth monitoring before increasing the volume of invitations you send.

Direct Message limits

Recommended messaging limits also depend on your LinkedIn account type:

The default daily message limit in STACKED is 50 messages.

Profile visits are shared across different actions

Your profile visit allowance isn’t only used when you explicitly visit a LinkedIn profile.

A profile visit may also be required when STACKED performs actions such as:

• Visiting a profile
• Sending a connection request
• Sending a direct Message
• Endorse a skill
• Liking a post
• Follow a profile

As a result, connection requests and messages also contribute towards your daily profile visit limit.

For example, reaching your daily profile visit limit can prevent additional campaign actions from being processed until activity becomes available again.

What happens when a daily limit is reached?

Reaching a daily limit doesn’t necessarily mean that something is wrong with your campaign.

Actions that cannot yet be processed may remain in Queued Activity until STACKED can continue processing them within the configured limits.

If your campaign appears to have stopped or is progressing more slowly than expected, check your Queued Activity and daily limits before making changes to the campaign.

Should I increase my limits?

Higher limits do not necessarily mean better campaign performance.

We recommend:

• Starting with the default settings
• Increasing activity gradually when necessary
• Monitoring connection acceptance and response rates
• Avoiding sudden large increases in automation volume
• Avoiding unnecessary manual LinkedIn activity while STACKED is actively processing automation
