Increase your visibility.
By adding connections, you increase the likelihood that people will see your profile first when they’re searching for someone to hire or do business with. In addition to appearing at the top of search results (which is a major plus if you’re one of the 52,000 product managers on LinkedIn), people would much rather work with people who their friends know and trust.
-
Increase the relevancy of your job search.
Use LinkedIn’s advanced search to find people with educational and work experience like yours to see where they work. For example, a programmer would use search keywords such as “Ruby on Rails,” “C++,” “Python,” “Java,” and “evangelist” to find out where other programmers with these skills work.

The average number of LinkedIn connections for people who work at Google is forty-seven.
#
The average number for Harvard Business School grads is fifty-eight, so you could skip the MBA, work at Google, and probably get most of the connections you need. Later, you can hire Harvard MBAs to prepare your income taxes.
#
People with more than twenty connections are thirty-four times more likely to be approached with a job opportunity than people with less than five.
#
All 500 of the Fortune 500 are represented in LinkedIn. In fact, 499 of them are represented by director-level and above employees.

You can also include a link to your profile as part of an email signature.
-
Since LinkedIn profiles receive a fairly high PageRank in Google, this is a good
way to influence what people see when they search for you. -
To do this, create a public profile and select “Full View.” Also, instead of
using the default URL, customize your public profile’s URL to be your actual
name. To strengthen the visibility of this page in search engines, use this link
in various places on the web> For example, when you comment in a blog,
include a link to your profile in your signature. -
Use LinkedIn’s advanced search to find people with educational and work
experience like yours to see where they work. -
If you’re thinking of investing or working in a sector, use LinkedIn to find
people who worked for competitors—or even better, companies who failed. -
You can see people in your network who are initiating new startups by doing an
advanced search for a range of keywords such as “stealth” or “new startup.”
Apply the “Sort By” filter to “Degrees away from you” in order to see the people
closest to you first. -
LinkedIn’s newest product, LinkedIn
Answers
, aims to enable this online. The
product allows you to broadcast your business-related questions to both your
network and the greater LinkedIn network. The premise is that you will get more
high-value responses from the people in your network than more open forums.

-
Enhance your search engine results.
In addition to your name, you can also promote your blog or website to search engines like Google and Yahoo! Your LinkedIn profile allows you to publicize websites. There are a few pre-selected categories like “My Website,” “My Company,” etc.
If you select “Other” you can modify the name of the link. If you’re linking to your personal blog, include your name or descriptive terms in the link, and voila! instant search-engine optimization for your site. To make this work, be sure your public profile setting is set to “Full View.”

Most people use LinkedIn to “get to someone†in order to make a sale, form a partnership, or get a job. It works well for this because it is an online network of more than 8.5 million experienced professionals from around the world representing 130 industries. However, it is a tool that is under-utilized, so I’ve compiled a top-ten list of ways to increase the value of LinkedIn.
