Use this interactive demo to learn how to block a person on LinkedIn in a few clicks.

Quick summary

Blocking someone on LinkedIn prevents them from viewing your profile and removes their content from your feed. This step-by-step guide walks you through the exact clicks needed to block any LinkedIn member quickly and privately.


Steps

  1. Click on the search bar at the top of your LinkedIn feed.
  2. Search for the person you want to block, or navigate directly to their profile.
  3. Select 'View Profile' from the search results to open their profile page.
  4. On their profile, click the 'More' button located near their profile picture.
  5. From the dropdown menu, click 'Report/Block'.
  6. In the pop-up that appears, select 'Block [Name]' from the available options.
  7. Click 'Block' to confirm and finalize the action.
  8. The block is complete — they can no longer view your profile and their updates will no longer appear in your feed.

📌 Why this matters

Knowing how to block someone on LinkedIn is essential for maintaining a safe and professional networking experience. Blocking a member immediately restricts their access to your profile and removes their posts and messages from your view, giving you full control over your LinkedIn privacy. This feature is especially valuable for professionals dealing with harassment, unwanted contact, or spam connections. Using LinkedIn's built-in block tool is the fastest way to protect your personal brand and online presence without needing to report or contact support.
