20 Tips and Tricks to Becoming Successful on LinkedIn

1.. Treat your LinkedIn profile like a website. Make sure it is formatted,
clean, and most importantly, filled with search engine friendly keywords.

2.. Create a LI Profile Word template to create and edit your profile.
This will guard against spelling and grammatical errors, and can be easily
copied into other social media platforms to keep your branding unified.

3.. Keep you name clean - LinkedIn can't find you if your name looks like
this: Smith, PhD. John A. (johnsmith@gmail.com) LION 941-555-1555

4.. Keep your photo professional. Headshot only. LinkedIn doesn't like
logos.

5.. Keep the "What are you doing now" function updated.

6.. Personalize your "public profile" to reflect your name, your business,
or your area of expertise: http://www.linkedin.com/in/linkedinexpert

7.. Personalize your websites by using "other" to reflect you business
name and not just "My Website"

8.. "Experience" is not your resume. Make sure the jobs you choose to list
support each other.

9.. "Experience" is a great place to list "wins", different companies you
have helped, seminars or workshops you have presented, a mini-shot of your
personal website.

10.. Make sure you list your certifications and licenses as well as
traditional education.

11.. Get Recommendations!

12.. Join strategic groups - then invite strategic members to build your
network.

13.. Create a group - fill with interesting and relevant information.

14.. You only get 3000 invitations in a lifetime - use them wisely.

15.. Don't IDK!

16.. Use "Answers" sections to position yourself as an expert, get
exposure.

17.. Use Answers section to get free, valuable advice.

18.. Always be courteous.

19.. "Give to" more than you try and "get from" other LinkedIn members.

20.. Be relevant!
