There is no much fun out there as on Facebook. But if you really care about your brand value then you must have a twitter account.\u00a0Twitter is a micro-blogging service where you can share insights and links on the topics that demonstrate your area of expertise and professional knowledge. Write your Twitter bio describing yourself in 160 or less characters. Follow influential people of your industry. Provide link to your online resume in the website field of your account.<\/li>\n<li><strong><em>Set up your LinkedIn profile:<\/em><\/strong><em>\u00a0<\/em>This should be your first stop if you are a student or a professional. It is the closest thing to your online resume. You should set up your LinkedIn profile with utmost care. Fill out the profile completely.\u00a0Do not skip out any experience or details. The default headline describes your current job title. You can and should change it manually if you are not happy with the look of your profile headline. Your summary should include a brief paragraph summarizing your work experience and your career aspirations.<\/li>\n<li><strong><em>Set up your Website\/Blog :<\/em><\/strong><em>\u00a0<\/em>This is the most powerful step of all. After your social profiles on all these mainstream social networking sites is in place, it begins to create an image of a genuine person for you. That is a great beginning. However, there is more to personal branding than having a bunch of social media profiles. Your own website, your own blog starts to make that difference for you.
