Likes UP: LinkedIn Connects WordPress Blog Feed

Social media brings the gift of connection. On Google Plus, +Bruce Bates shared that there is an option on Linkedin for connecting your WordPress blog to your Linkedin feed.
This was secret #7 of the 12 LinkedIn secrets to supercharge your social networking
Here’s the added blog feed to Sherrie Rose’s LinkedIn profile:
What’s interesting is how social media really gets relevant in real-time because just prior to reading the Google+ post by Bruce I had pinned an image to Pinterest.
The image came from Ragan (same producer of the 12 LinkedIn secrets to supercharge your social networking from PR Daily article) that got on the radar because of a Facebook “conversation” by Mari Smith in a closed group about webinars just prior to reading the Google Plus post by Bruce Bates. See two Pinterest images below and click the image to take you to Pinterest to repin, like, or comment:
Some webinars are free and the free webinars often include a offer at the end to purchase something. There are fee webinars, like the ones at Ragan, that are more corporate oriented. You purchase a whole course, including video, on Pinterest for less that the 75 minute webinar. You just need to know where to look for Pinterest – Click here if interested
LinkedIn is a great tool if you know someone’s email address to connect. Use the email address on the image below to connect with Sherrie Rose on LinkedIn.

The #1 question marketers want to know 3 years in a row is how to measure social media marketing effectiveness.
This 2012 report is packed with fascinating stats and graphics. Be sure to download the annual Social Media Marketing Industry Report just out today:
Look at how +Mike Stelzner has assembled the report – with icons - 4 social share buttons (Facebook, Twitter, Google+ and LinkedIn) at the bottom of the introduction and the top of each page of the report – clever!
Did you notice the old Google+ icon is used instead of the new Google+ icon?
