The transformation has started. LinkedIn has begun rolling out a feature that allows you to upload a customized background for your profile. A few months ago, LinkedIn provided this functionality to Premium members, and it’s now being made available to freebie members. It will roll out over time, so if you haven’t been notified, be patient; you will.
This is the single biggest opportunity to make your profile stand out visually. Combined with the feature that lets you integrate multi-media into your LinkedIn Summary and Experience sections, plus the ability to convert your profile into your personal blogging platform, you have everything you need to make LinkedIn your personal website and media arm.
Over the past few years, LinkedIn has been working hard to make your profile your digital personal branding platform. The new background technique is an important milestone in a customization strategy that makes you shine in a community of over 300 million users.
