Add Your Linkedin Profile To Your Blog
Linkedin is the best platform to create a professional network along with a perfect professional profile. Adding this profile to your blog is a good idea especially when you provide some paid services. This can be done with Linkedin’s Profile Widget. The widget displays only your public profile. So you need to customize your public profile to display the information which is useful and quickly readable.
To add a Linkedin Profile to your blog’s sidebar follow these steps:
- Go to http://developer.linkedin.com/community/widgets
- Click on “Get the code” under Profile section.
- Now, you can choose from a Pop-Up or Inline Interface.
Pop-up interface is displayed only when a user clicks on the “Linkedin” icon which appears next to your name at the place where code is added. Whereas an inline interface automatically displays the profile with the page load.
- Copy the javascript code and add it to the <head> section of your wordpress theme.
- Next, copy the code for the interface which you wish to put on your blog.
- Finally paste this code into a “Text” widget for your sidebar. Don’t forget to change URL in the code to your Linkedin profile address.
Inline profile is a better option because once put in the sidebar, it will appear on every page of the blog.
