How to promote your business and website using LinkedIn

Linkedin is one of the most popular social network website among professionals. I would rather say it’s a facebook or orkut for professionals. Linkedin is not only useful for professional as a source for better career prospect but it’s also a wonderful tool for businesses for promotion.

How it’s possible?

First thing is to create a profile however just creating a profile is not enough, for promoting your business and website in fruitful way you need to make yourself a POWER USER of linkedin. Creating a profile thus can take anywhere from 5 minutes to couple of hours depending upon the level of depth you digg in your profile. My tip is to make your linkedin profile as your online resume put each and every detail of your education, job history in the same way as you create your CV.

Once profile is created use to connect with the people you know who are already over linkedin it may be your colleagues etc. Also you can invite the people you know and they will be added to your connects.

Third step is to join your company communities, groups etc. Like I have created and joined the community. Also make sure you spend at least 10 to 30 mins daily on Linkedin.

Promote your linked in profile by putting in your email signatures, website, blogs etc.

That was all about Linkedin promotion, one another good URL to promote is google profile. Please check – How to use google profile as marketing tool?
