The Results Lady
Today I thought I would share with you 3 things I learned on LinkedIn. But first I have a question for you – Are you using LinkedIn like you should? Are you a LinkedIn voyeur or are you participating in the discussion? Do you answer questions and participate in Groups? OK I guess that was more like 3 questions.
3 Things I Learned on LinkedIn Today
1. How to boost my Facebook Fan Page engagement!
2. That I probably annoy a lot of people.
3. That when you search “blogging” you get 56,744 results of which I am 3rd!!
What did you learn from LinkedIn today?
P.S. Do you want to know how to be on the first page of searches for your keywords? It has to do with how many times that keyword shows up in your profile. I guess that is another great blog post for me to write!
I just wrote a post about using LinkedIn for blog post ideas – really not trying for a shameless plug, but here’s a link in case you’re interested. http://ht.ly/2PTGd
Most people thing of LinkedIn in terms of networking-which is great-but it is has a wealth of ideas.
Thanks for commenting Cathy. That was a great post that you wrote as well. And thank you for the typo alert. LOL Thanks, Michele
And you can find out what people thinK about typos on LinkedIn, too-ha-ha! 😀
There was a huge discussion about it in one of my Groups-so make that last sentence Make people think (not thing) of linkedIn…
It took me a minute to figure out your post, I even tried clicking on the link in #1 (I am interested in that). Then I got it. Duh. I can totally relate to #2 and absolutely know that I irritate people (maybe someone could write a blog about that). And finally: Congratulations on #3. That MUST feel good.
LOL Laura – I am glad you figured it out. I think you are right about the blog post on irritating people. You should write it and be sure to let me know when you do it so I can read it. Thanks, Michele
Congrats on being #3!
I finally joined Linkedin. It was on my list of marketing I wanted to do. A post you wrote pushed me forward.
I am still learning the connection thing. But am really excited. I joined a group you are in. I really like the fact that you can connect to people you are familiar with.
Thanks Michelle for all you info on Linkedin. It really does help.
Don’t you feel sorry for those poor annoyed souls?
Hey Sheila – That is great. LinkedIn does have quite a learning curve but it is one of those things that once you figure it out – it can really help build your business. Thanks for commenting, Michele
Hi Michele,
Great post! And, you’re right, LinkedIn does have quite of a learning curve. But, when done properly, it gets you results. I have sales every day coming from my LinkedIn. In fact, because of my LinkedIn efforts, my website traffic soared 33%. And, because the results my team achieved — we’ll be starting a LinkedIn service very soon.
For those of you who do want to get started with LinkedIn, if you email me at Eric@articlemarketingexperts.com, I can give you a free 15 minute strategy session.
Hey Eric – LinkedIn can be such a powerful tool and I think everyone has a lot to learn from your success on LinkedIn. I think that is actually where you and I connected originally. :)) Thanks for commenting, Michele
