LinkedIn is a very popular professional (and semi-social) networking website that has received much attention in this current economic environment when hundreds of thousands of people are losing their jobs. LinkedIn has been instrumental in helping people expand their professional network and aiding their job search. LinkedIn also provides a handful of badges, buttons and image links that you can put on your blog or website. The process of getting your own personalized one is a bit tedious and makes you jump through a series of links.

If you haven’t done so already head over to LinkedIn website to sign up for an account. After logging in click on Account & Settings link on the top right of the page.

Finally you are on the Promote your profile section which has all the goodness. Select which button/badge design you prefer and copy the HTML code next to it. Paste this code on your site where you wish to display your LinkedIn personalized link.
