To ensure optimum search engine optimization, quality inbound links are a must. On your quest for reputable sites to link to you, don’t forget LinkedIn – an online networking site that helps companies discover job candidates, industry experts and business partners. Many of your employees might already be using LinkedIn as a networking tool but they may not have links from their profiles to your website.

Login to your LinkedIn profile and go to the ‘edit my profile’ tab. There you will see the “Websites” link in the middle of the screen – click on that link. You will then be brought to the “Additional Information” section. There are three links that you can add to your LinkedIn Profile.  Fill out all of the links, using the appropriate anchor text or keywords that describe each link. Link to your site’s homepage and gthen do some deep linking to product pages or the ‘About us’ section of your website.

You’ve just given your site some credible backlinks!
