I’ve long felt that LinkedIn is misunderstood as a valuable tool for networking, recruiting, prospecting and job search. My goal was to discuss some details of LinkedIn in hopes of getting more folks to take another look at LinkedIn. I also believe creating and optimizing your LinkedIn profile is an effective way to optimize your web presence for your personal name.

It's especially important to me because I am a web designer. It doesn't make much sense for someone who builds websites for a living to have a site located at <a href="http://webdesigngrrl.tripod.com" rel="nofollow">http://webdesigngrrl.tripod.com</a> or something like that. Having my own domain name shows that I take my work seriously and value my work enough to pay to have my name (and nothing else) associated with it. This is all very true.
