Unless you have been living under a rock for the last decade you have probably hear a lot about how many people from all over the world are making a living online. However, most people have no idea where and how to get started.

In this version of my dotcom internet marketing tips I will be explaining to you 5 powerful tools you should use to increase your professional network and money making opportunities in the online world.

  Create and/or improve your LinkedIn profile: a LinkedIn profile

is the equivalent of a business card online. You would be amazed by the amount of professionals who are trying to succeed online and still have not taken the time to customize or even create their LinkedIn profile.

LinkedIn has several customization options that allow you to add your previous professional experience, your special skills, links to your websites, and much more.  Some of the best professional connections I have ever made came from LinkedIn and now it’s time for you to take full advantage of this powerful networking tool.

  Create a personal Twitter account: Twitter has taken the world of

micro blogging to a whole new level. Twitter allows you to follow and connect with people who are interested in the products you offer or that are part of your target market.

The simplicity of twitter makes it very easy for anyone to get started. In addition, you can find literally hundreds of free and paid tools to help you add new users, find targeted leads, and more.

  Create an online portfolio for potential clients: One of the best ways

to reach new clients and business partners is by creating an online portfolio with samples of your work, and/or a comprehensive list of your products, and your services.

Be easy to reach by being a member in several communities online: In order to success online you must be easy to find and reach, communication is the key for success. Successful online entrepreneurs understand the importance of online interaction with potential prospects and business partners.

In today’s world of convenience your customers and prospects want to have as many ways to reach as possible. Some of the most influential communities you should consider to be a part of are: YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Slideshare, Google Buzz, Friendfeed, Yahoo profiles, Delicious, and Stumbleupon to mention a few. (Note: We will be soon publishing an article that will explain how to create a strong online presence by having a profile in several places around the web)

Create your own personal blog: Most people feel very intimidated by the idea of creating their own blog. Nevertheless, creating a blog is easier than you think. There are several online services (most of them are free) that allow you to create a new blog for yourself within minutes. Services like blogger, bloglines, and wikispaces make creating your own blog a no brainer.  Remember, the success of your blog is mainly defined by the quality of your content not the complexity of its design.
