If I search for a person via Google and take a look at his LinkedIn profile, will the person know?

by Altug Altug

We are curious creatures.  We want what the internet can provide about a person! Most of the time, it is not important but usually, we want to keep it secret! That is stalking!

The best way is Googling someone! There could be many results depending on how much content is created for that person.

One of the channels where we can reach information is a LinkedIn profile. If he or she has a LinkedIn, it will probably be listed on our Google search results.

When you Google someone and visit his/her LinkedIn profile, will this person know?

If you search for someone on Google and then visit their LinkedIn profile, this person will be notified but there is a condition:

You should be logged into your LinkedIn profile!

If you are logged in to your LinkedIn profile, you will be visiting that person's LinkedIn profile with your LinkedIn account.

That means LinkedIn will notify that person that you viewed his/her profile, there is no escape from it!

So, you should be careful when searching for someone on Google.

And this is a good tactic to know if people are searching for you on Google. If your LinkedIn profile is listed on page #1 results for your name, people will probably check your LinkedIn profile without knowing this!

How can you get your LinkedIn profile to the #1 Google search results?

Posting regularly on LinkedIn could be the best method! And you should post quality content that people can engage in!

How will you do that?

You need an assistant!
