My recent job process took nearly two months (from my response to the linkedin recruiter to receiving a written offer), but it was mainly due to slow processes on their HR end.

Honestly, it depends on who you're dealing with. If you're dealing with some HR grunt, base-level recruiter, then I'd say it's absolutely okay to follow up more than once. It's not in a recruiter's best interest to turn someone away, especially when they're interested enough to follow up more than once. Now, obviously there are other factors, like if your messages are professional, as opposed to "what the fuck is taking so long."

However, if you're dealing with your potential boss, then one follow up is likely enough. At least, until it drags on for nearly a month since you hear from them. I'd say it's okay to ping an email over once every two weeks for a recruiter, or once every 3 weeks to a month for your potential employer.
