Top LinkedIn Ranking Hack

Brand to Land: Eliminating Personal Blanding? with the Sharpest Tools & Strategies for Your Professional Success. Branding ? LinkedIn Profile Optimization ? Trainer ? Career Coach ? Speaker? Verified Profile ?
Admit it, the first thing we all do when we open our LinkedIn is to click on "Who's viewed your profile". Don't feel self-conscious because you are not alone, actually, you are in the majority as LinkedIn ranks this simple feature as one of their most popular, if not the #1 used functionality.
The real question isn't why do we look, it's why do we not proactively focus and harness the Power of the Lookers?
Well here is my # 1 LinkedIn Hack that has kept my profile ranked in the top 1% for 10+ years and it's based on society's desire to know who is looking at our profiles.
- First, check your Privacy setting and open "Profile viewing options" and select "Your name and headline". This selection now becomes your virtual business calling card.
- Next conduct a targeted search, click on interesting profiles, allow the profile to load and spent at least 1 second to check them out, then hit return on your browser to go back to the search results and open the next profile of interest. TIP: Easier, faster and more mobile on your Smart Phone LinkedIn App!
- Now just wait, when your searched subject returns to LinkedIn, opens their "Who's viewed your profile", discovers your virtual business calling card and their curiosity take them to you. On Average, 30 to 45% of targeted profiles visit you back. Bonus: if your profile resonates and is well written, the chances of a connection, conversation or meeting are highly likely.
Take my Top LinkedIn Ranking Hack Challenge: Schedule 20 minutes a day for 21 days (best timing is early morning), follow the 3 simple steps above and you will see your profile visits skyrocket. The more quality visits you attract to your profile, the greater the potential opportunities and the more likely LinkedIn's algorithms will increase your relevance and ranking.

6 年I agree with you 100% and it works. My experience shows unfortunately only 10 % of the people take action. What are your results?

7 年Kevin D Turner ?? - Great idea. I've seen it mentioned a couple times and finally decided to give it a try in August. I'm having about 40% of the people I visit return the visit. I've even had actual phone calls with 3 of them! That's probably in a total of around 100 visits on my part. I try to do 2-3 a day in my 20 minutes LI time.
