# Preview a profile before you track it

> See a profile's recent posts and engagement first.

Before you track a profile, preview it: you see how often it posts and how much engagement its posts get, and what tracking it would
cost.

## Preview a profile

1. Open the **Watchlist** page.
2. Paste the profile's LinkedIn address and click **Preview**.

TIKT reads the profile and its last month of posts, then shows:

* **Posts / week**: the posts published over the last month.
* **Usual engagement**: the reactions and comments its posts usually get.
* **Credits / week**: what tracking this profile would use each week, from a month without a standout post to last month as it was.
  It's counted as if everyone reacting were new to you: you only pay for people new to you.
* **Last month**: its posts from the last month, post by post. They are not collected; you can collect any of them from the **Posts**
  page.

Then click **Track** to follow it, or **Discard** to leave it.

## Is it free?

Previewing is free for up to 35 profiles a month that you don't track. A profile you track doesn't count. Once you reach the limit, more
previews are available at the start of your next period.

## What to look for

* A profile that posts every week, with comments from people in your market.
* **Credits / week** that fits your plan: the preview warns you when tracking would use more than 10% of your monthly plan.
* No post in the last month? The profile brings no one while it doesn't post.
