Conclusion

Managing a Linkedin account is not like managing a social media account, for it is not a platform for users to have a personalized one as they have it on Facebook.

In other words, it is not a platform to socialize to get to know other users. It is a serious application striving to highlight an individual’s career growth, of a group, and so forth. It serves as a portfolio for many companies and individuals. 

Linkedin provides every user with a perspective. A perspective to ensure that the associations they are making in the form of connections define their ideology, growth, and the vision they represent as a company or as a user.

Therefore, it becomes important to ensure that the users improve their profile for attracting potential connections and offers depending upon the nature of their profile.
