LinkedIn gets a Facelift, and gains popularity. Good for Personal SEO, but is it good enough to take from Facebook?
I’ve never really paid much attention to LinkedIn; I do know that if you wanted to get your name at the top of Google and Yahoo, LinkedIn will definitely do the job, unless your name is John Smith. Although LinkedIn rival Facebook is super popular it does not seem to index like most other sites do, including LinkedIn. According to Nielsen numbers LinkedIn is growing at a faster rate than Facebook, this maybe due to better results in search engines or because the MySpace generation is job hunting. I know Facebook is moving towards better visibility on search engines, however, I have not seen the results yet. This worries me because they have always been known as a gated community, unlike their spam ridden rival MySpace. A few websites that have really achieved great search engine recognition include: Digg.com, Wikipedia.com, LinkedIn.com, Yahoo Answers, and Amazon.com. These are just a few sites that you want to be on that is if you want your name out there. Visit me later for a personal SEO game plan.
