I think I have done something wrong. When I go back to the internet and just put in my name or my name and commercial realtor or commercial real estate nothing comes up in Linkedin. Where do I need to change my profile so others can easily find me? I am new and just tried to submit my profile in Linkedin. I think I have done something wrong.

They'll happily connect with you, but since they don't know you, they can't recommend you. They connect you with a lot of neat people, but they can't really recommend any of them, since they don't know them, either! They're deadbeats -- creating hundreds (or thousands) of "connections" they can't back up with relationships. Can we please get the ability to filter them out of results?

However, I have a concern about point #2:Join a Group. Most of these groups are infested with the super networkers who want be in every group just because they are super networkers. The worst part is that they are listed at the top of the list in every group. For example, I joined a special focus group and wanted to research members of that group to see how we can help each other. The first obstacle was 2-3 pages of super networkers who have no reason to be in that group. It defeats the purpose of a group. I know that we cannot stop the creator of the group from accepting these super networkers but can we list these group members in a different order? In my Omaha Networking Group, I have about 500 members and only 3 members are not from Omaha but have some ties with Omaha. I have put some time and effort to build this group carefully. I wish other group moderators would do the same to increase effectiveness of these groups! Great suggestions April! However, I have a concern about point #2:Join a Group.
