2. Dont create your LinkedIn Profile in LinkedIn.
Create a LI Profile Word template to create and edit your profile. This will guard against spelling and grammatical errors, and can be easily copied into other social media platforms to keep your branding unified. It will also save you a boatload of time.
If for some reason LinkedIn ever suspended your profile, mistakenly shut down an active profile because of LinkedIn Schizophrenia, or you simply wanted to try out another business networking site, having a fully formed profile already in a word document is a life saver.
Then make sure you just copy and paste the whole thing into a word doc so you can do more editing, spell check, grammar check - and of course have a copy in case LinkedIn does something weird - much better to recreate a profile from a word doc then from scratch!

Too late for me, as I already created my resume there... :)
