Gabriel Tabalujan- Linkedin for marketing
The text that you include in your profile is searchable. So, if you're looking for
work in a particular area, such as telecommunications, be sure to add this information.
LinkedIn offers subscribers a remarkably fast way to grow their networks. When I
joined LinkedIn, about 14 of my colleagues asked to link with me, and I asked to link with some of them. By degrees I expanded my link network to hundreds of
LinkedIn members because my originally linked members have links to hundreds of other connections. And those hundreds of connections have thousands more. In a very short time you'll have more connections than you ever thought possible.
Fortunately, LinkedIn makes it easy to search for other LinkedIn members who share your interests, including, for example, the company you work for (or the company you worked for sometime in the hazy past), as well as for people you went to school with (in the even more hazier past).
Guy Kawasaki, former Apple evangelist, managing director of the venture
capital firm Garage Technology Ventures, author, and LinkedIn user, offers a valuable tip. He notes in his January 4, 2007 blog that if you make your profile available to everyone and use your actual name for your public profile URL (also known as a Web site address), you make your profile information easier for search engines to index.
(You can read this tip and more of Kawasaki's recommendations for using LinkedIn effectively at http://blog.guykawasaki.com/2007/01/ten_ways_to_use.html.) This
is especially true when people use Google to search for you because your site has a higher Google PageRank, that is, your profile comes up more quickly in search results.
The new iPhone Unsocial is now available for free on the app store and it integrates with your LinkedIn profile to let you find business professionals located near you, to connect with. Almost operating as a Foursquare for LinkedIn, this is all about location serv
