If you're looking for a way to expand your range of business opportunities, and also give your SEO a boost, perhaps you should consider creating a secondary LinkedIn profile.
What Is a Secondary LinkedIn Profile?
It's a profile that you create in a second language. Let's say that you speak fluent English, Spanish and French. Well you can create a new account on LinkedIn (except it's not really a new account) and view it in each of those languages. In fact, you can make up to 24 accounts in additional languages.
Why should you create a secondary profile?
Well by creating a secondary LinkedIn profile, you suddenly open up the potential for interacting with considerably more people across the world. In fact, 70% of users on LinkedIn are not even from the U.S. The infographic below by Louisa Chan and Venngage highlights not only the benefits of setting up a profile in a second language, but also the steps you can take in order to do it.
One thing to note, however, is that if you don't speak the language in question, it's probably best not to change your profile. You might deter other individuals from doing business with you due to a lack of honesty. Stick to the languages you know, and you will open up your chances of connecting internationally.
