UPDATE: 11/29/2009
LinkedIn reduced their exposed number of links to 2 and made them both nofollow links. Wow, I thought they were our friend. No more SEO value here.
This is a quick and very real way to boost your search engine results page (SERP) rankings. It will get 6 high-quality SEO website links from a Google PageRank 8 website – LinkedIn.com.
Here’s what you need to do:
- Log into LinkedIn.com (http://www.linkedin.com). If you don’t have a LinkedIn account then you need to get one. Linked In is a professional networking website, and it will help all of your professional ventures. Just get one.
- Click Edit My Profile.
- Under Websites click Edit.
- For each website in the ‘Choose’ drop-down select Other.
- In the textbox add text-link keywords you want to be found by, and that are associated with a page of your site. It is extremely important here that you select the right keywords. Thorough keyword analysis is advised before entering these keywords because it is important to your websites SERP rankings.
- Point at least one of the 3 (maximum) links to your home page. There will be 2 of each of these links in your public profile.
- Add the website page URL associated with the keyword you entered.
- Make sure you have a public profile and make sure the website links show up in it.
This will result in 6 links on your LinkedIn public profile page pointing to your website pages. This Google PR8 Website link will help your website SERP rankings.

Again another website posting nonsense. Linkedin has high page rank but your public profile page is N/A rank. Practically useless.
Yumiko,
Obviously you didn’t notice that this article was written in 2009, and updated to reflect the changes when LinkedIn changed its mind about those links.
Interesting article. I looking for thoughts on load speed.
My homepage is kind of heavy with tools and other items and only got a PR3 on the last Google update a few days ago while most of the rest the site got PR5.
Any thoughts that this could be from a slower load time?

The effectiveness of SEO work relies largely on its ability to convert the target market from reading content blogs, articles etc to clicking on the link(s) provided and hopefully, cross your fingers, they buy something. And this brings one great challenge for SEO service providers and even web owners: to come up with a quality web content which will be competitive to indexing by Google. Brian Clark was right on the dot when he advised that SEO copywriting should be about writing an “engaging” content in a language that target customers use. It establishes the relevance of the business to its market, thus, delivering value. This approach has already been practiced by most marketing gurus and my small business seo service providers, and it was indeed effective. I saw our business site being referred as one of the priorities in related keyword searches.
Very useful information. Link building is a slow and long process and these types of tips helps everyone. Thanks
Never takes long for these opportunities to get shut down. Heh
Article Marketing is definitely one of the simplest ways of marketing today. All it needs is writing little articles of 350 to 400 words and submitting them to article directories. If you own a blog or a site, you can write short articles on your particular niche and link to your domain. This is a great way to market your blog or website and thus generate conversions. Although article marketing is fundamentally free to do, it’s unquestionably a good idea to purchase automation tools. Article spinning and submitter softwares are the most effective ones you can acquire that are going to massively help you leverage your article marketing efforts.
You can take a look at http://www.flashpageflip.com/ that has PageRank 8.
I didn’t know that you could get such high pr links for free!
Great bit of advice
Great information. Most sites provide a suggestion that facebook links help, but you actually gave the details. Quality information-Great Job.
