Facebook is one of the top social networking sites today, so it makes sense to take advantage of all of its features. One thing you can take advantage of if you have your own business is to set up a "fan page" to help raise your profile. Fan pages are easy to set up, and they can attract people that you may not otherwise be reaching out to. Try to make sure that you include specific information about your company so that your skills get the attention they deserve. If you use a tagline, be sure to add it, and use photos if you are able to as well.

You can also link a blog to your Facebook account by using Networked Blogs. This is a great way to raise your blog's visibility and get more people to visit. Use Google Analytics or Sitemeter to keep track of the hits you get from your Facebook page and see how many people are coming to your site from this type of networking. You can even add your RSS feed to the blog so that it updates on the page automatically. In essence, this means that it is doing all the work for you, which is really a nice feature. You can also invite all of your friends to join your blog page.
