Top 10 LinkedIn Custom URL & Privacy Settings That Get You Seamless Attention

I have always been a big fan of the Custom URL feature because that allows my profile to go public and receive more business opportunities.

1. Setting Visibility to Public on ‘Edit Public Profile Option’.
2. Enabling Visibility of all Sections while editing Public Profile Option.
3. Updating Keywords in Skills Sections, getting endorsements and enabling visibility in Public Profile Section.
4. Using your designation or keyword in profile Name URL. i.e., www.linkedin.com/in/keyword as public profile URL helps in getting traction for that keyword.
5. Allowing everybody to see the changes you are making to profile on a regular basis. This will pull their attention to your profile.
6. Enabling public visibility of your Contact Settings, Birthday completely at all times so that others may contact you anytime.
7. Adding your contact details to headlines, summary etc. and enabling it for public view at all times.
8. Enabling your profile picture to be viewable to Public at all times will improve credibility of your profile and attract more people to connect with you.
9. Enabling visibility of Groups you have joined and Companies you follow. This will allow people to understand your interests and connect with you.
