If you hope to get ahead and really transform your LinkedIn profile into a success, you will need
to familiarize yourself with some of the site’s little
tricks and tips that not everyone may know.
In fact, the following list is something that every LinkedIn user should copy,
In fact, the following list is something that every LinkedIn user should copy,
save and keep on file for future reference:
Turn off activity broadcasts whenever making major
changes to your profile.
You don’t want to annoy your network by bombarding them
with updates.
Use LinkedIn Groups to help you grow your network.
Interact on a regular basis,
offer advice and try to connect with fellow group members
as much as you can.
Remember to only join groups that suit your industry or
skills. You can join up to 50 groups
and you can leave them whenever you wish so don’t feel
too restricted with your choices.
Focus on your main (maximum of 4 of 5) skills when
completing your profile
and make it very clear as to what you specialize in.
When requesting endorsements from your connections,
be specific and tell them which skills you would like to
be endorsed for.
Only give real, genuine recommendations and endorsements.
You’re not doing anyone
any favors by recommending them for something you have not even experienced.

Save time by repurposing your existing content and using
it on LinkedIn.
If you held more than one position at a particular
company over a few years,
you can add each position or job title separately in your
profile. This will help keep your profile looking organized and it will look
like you have even more experience!
If you receive a connection request, don’t be scared to
connect if you don’t know the person.
Check their profile out at least and take their request
into consideration.
You should only refuse if they are a competitor, if connecting
wouldn’t benefit either of you
or if the profile is missing important details like an
original headline or profile picture.
View profiles anonymously by changing your viewing
setting.
You can now surf and browse without any concern that they might figure out it was you
and start bombarding you with messages.

and start bombarding you with messages.
LinkedIn has character limits in many of their
information fields
so make sure you know your limits on each field and use
every last space to your advantage.
Let people get to know who you are and not just what you
are good at.
Do this by letting your personality come through in your
profile summary.
Change the order of the content on your profile.
Place the most important information at the top
so that viewers don’t need to scroll down to see it.

When completing job descriptions of positions you held,
try not to add too much detail.
Focus on responsibilities that are directly related to
your expertise
and list those rather than other ad hoc duties.
Add a QR code to your business code that people can scan
to reach your LinkedIn profile
in a matter of seconds. Keep these cards on you
everywhere you go –
you never know when an opportunity will present itself.

If you need the extra features of a Premium account but
you don’t need them for a full year,
you can sign up for a monthly Premium account. Use your
account and all these extra features
as much as you need in that month before reverting to a
regular account.
Your goal is to have at least 500 connections if you want
to be seen as a serious networker.
That said, remember not to connect blindly!
Before you start making any connections, go through your
LinkedIn profile with a fine tooth comb. Make sure that it’s 100% to your
satisfaction before sending out any connection requests.
