LinkedIn Out Of Nowhere

A recent email immediately gave me an idea for a blog post.  And the email was triggered by a LinkedIn contact.

LinkedIn is designed primarily as a professional, business-like social network.

Think of it this way:

  • My Space = your bedroom
  • Facebook = your living room
  • LinkedIn = your office

LinkedIn mostly is a social network where business professionals can share how smart they are.  You know, posting their resume for the entire world to see.

And this is powerful because LinkedIn has something like 40+ million users and is reported to grow to 200-300 million “soon”.

Those who know me well, know that I’m as focused and disciplined as they come.  And I can dress up in a suit and look like I run the joint. But I prefer cut-off jean shorts and barefeet.

Don’t believe me, check out my LinkedIn profile.  It ain’t your typical “I’m so smart, I’m so smart. I’m so smart” resume. Mostly, because, well, honestly, I’m not the brightest bulb in the box.

Anyway, I use LinkedIn as a micro-blog. Every day posting a new status update.  Today’s was simply, Jeff Noel doesn’t think you’ve been to this blog yet: https://jeffnoel.org It’s a dot org

Orlando’s jeff noel on SEO – Search Engine Optimization.

Search Engine Marketing, or SEM, is pretty much the same thing, so don’t over look reading about Search Engine Marketing.

Here are a couple easy things I did to learn about, and then execute on, search engine optimization, or SEO.

  1. Google SEO
  2. Google Search Engine Marketing (don’t Google SEM – your Google results for SEM will be poor)
  3. Google Meta Tags
  4. Google Tags
  5. Register a domain name (I recommend Go Daddy)
  6. Practice (there is no substitute for hard work)
  7. Keep it simple – try blogging ( I recommend WordPress)
  8. Use You Tube, LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, and other Social Media Marketing tools
  9. Pray  🙂

Good luck to you.  I wish you success beyond your wildest dreams.

If your goal isn’t impossible, you’re not reaching high enough.

PS.  I’m currently on track to exceed 1,000,000 clicks in a year, by practicing what I’ve preached.

I guarantee that is totally beyond my wildest dreams.  Carpe diem, jeff noel 🙂
