1. Become the master of your domain.

• The best way to become known is to have everyone
  recognize you as the expert in your field. When
  people know who you are and what value you bring
  to the table, its easier to land a job or get
  clients. Its a whole lot better than cold
  calling or submitting a resume, too. You need to
  carve out your own niche so you can gain
  visibility and opportunities will follow. Choose
  a topic that you want to be known for and then
  pick a specific audience you want to be known
  to. That audience could be students in Boston or
  small tech companies in Chicago. The point is
  that you cant be everything to everyone so you
  need to zero in on the right people.

2. Be consistent with everything you do.

• If you want to start a blog, make sure that you
  are posting consistently. By posting once a week,
  you can develop an audience that can support your
  career. If you post irregularly, people wont
  expect much from you and wont put the effort in
  to try and follow you. When it comes to
  developing a consistent brand image online, you
  should use the same picture and positioning
  across every social network profile that youre
  part of.

3. Follow industry experts.

• One of the best ways to learn about anything is
  by following people who have the experience and
  knowledge. You can follow thought leaders on
  LinkedIn, subscribe to their blogs, and read
  their books. Its never been easier to connect
  with industry experts too. You can see them at
  conferences, email them and reply to their
  tweets. As a bonus, you mind end up getting one
  as a mentor, which could be a big career booster
  for you.

4. Remove yourself from your computer.

• Too many people rely on technology these days and
  its hurting their interpersonal relationships.
  Instead of just using Facebook to keep in touch
  with friends, use it to schedule in person
  meetings so you can build real relationships. Empl
  oyers are looking to hiring and promote those who
  have great soft skills over those who can just do
  the job. By putting yourself in various social
  situations, you will be able to develop your
  network, become a better communicating and learn
  how to deal with people. Use your online network
  to filter down the right people to meet offline
  and then schedule those meetings and lunches.

5. Pump out high quality content.

• We hear the term content marketing a lot as it
  applies to companies writing articles that get
  people interested in their products and services.
  This works in a similar way with professionals.
  If youre putting out great content that relates
  to your expertise, and doing it consistently,
  people will take notice, share it and it will
  boost your career. You can also use it as a way
  of networking with people in your industry.
