What's the first thing you share with a stranger when you meet - your name, but it doesn't end in random numbers and letters, does it? You don't say, \"My name is Ivan1234_567,\" do you? Then why do so many LinkedIn profiles still end in something like that: linkedin.com\/in\/petya-georgieva-87ab2149\/<\/code><\/em><\/p>\n

Your LinkedIn URL is a small, seemingly insignificant detail, but it matters a lot. It's the equivalent of patterned socks or an extravagant brooch, it makes you stand out in a crowd. This is exactly why the platform enables URL to be personalized<\/strong>. Editing the address is done in a few simple steps that shouldn't cause any headaches.<\/p>\n

If you want to change your LinkedIn URL, I personally advise you to do it through your desktop or laptop. There are several reasons, but if I had to highlight 3 in number:<\/p>\n

  1. There's a good chance you'll get a bug if you try it over the phone;<\/em><\/li>\n
  2. It's much easier via computer\/laptop;<\/em><\/li>\n
  3. It's much faster via computer\/laptop;<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    To customize your URL via computer\/laptop, just follow the steps below:<\/p>\n

    Changing your LinkedIn URL from a mobile phone is a more complicated process, but nothing unattainable. There are 2 more steps here, and it's entirely possible to mess up at the start. Don't give up though! Changing a URL from a mobile app works like this:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    It is important to note that the LinkedIn URL with your name can be busy<\/strong>in case you have a common name. It shouldn't bother you that you will continue to present yourself in the digital world with a few extra characters after your name.<\/p>\n

    \u00a0<\/p>\n

    If your name is taken and you cannot customize your URL as you wish - you can always add the letter of your second<\/strong> your name or better still your professional field, for example ivangeorgievmarketing<\/strong>. <\/em>You can always experiment with different variations in case the URL is already taken, but always stick to The 3 simple rules for changing your LinkedIn URL:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \u00a0<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Use your full name<\/em><\/li>\n
    2. Avoid numbers and symbols (you just removed them, why would you put them back?)<\/em><\/li>\n
    3. Stick to a short and simple URL<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
