Getting a Google Profile is Good for Business

By far the most important words in any language is the sweet sound of your own name. If you are trying to establish yourself and create a presence on the Internet, google recently unveiled google profiles. If you just met someone at a networking event, at church, on the tennis court… or if I was in the market for a job, or was referred by someone, chances are good that you’re being ‘googled.’

With sites like Linked In, MySpace, Facebook and other social media sites, this one could prove to be a winner in helping you raise your ranking a little in the search engines. And it also makes it easier for you to be found.

The How To:

If you don’t have already have a google ‘gmail’ account, then you’ll need to get one. Goto mail.google.com and sign up for a free account. Currently gmail accounts offers 7gb of free storage space so you have ample space to store lots of email. Simply provide google with the information it requires, providing a valid email address and you should be setup within a matter of minutes.

Once you’ve created your gmail account, then goto http://profiles.google.com and follow the instructions. The more information you provide the better the chances you’ll show up at the bottom of page one when someone types in your name. Be sure to verify your email account, once you’ve entered in your information into your profile.
