Klout, Bing and Search Results
Let's just say being ranked 5th in the world in Klout influence about a year ago didn't hurt! Read on to see how you can use Klout to benefit your business.
Klout and Microsoft partnered up to allow you to verify and manage how you appear in Bing search results.
You must have your LinkedIn account connected and on Bing, then you will be in search results with social icons and professional accomplishments.
If you have a Klout account, either business or individual, you can connect your profile to BING here.
What are the benefits?
This feature allows brands to reach potential customers. Basically you get better online visibility (Who doesn't want that if you own a business?)
For SEO it doesn't require simply Google alone. Let's face it when you hear SEO Google is the king so it is nice to have other avenues to have an impact.
This feature can only increase reputation as well as reach for clients.

Connect all your social profiles to Bing using Klout.
Using Klout you can integrate search results into your overall score. Basically it is a way to measure real world influence. This can only help and in case you missed it or have not connected yet do so HERE
Here are a few results when I search myself.
Search is how you are found by other people or possible clients. This feature allows anyone who signs up on Klout to show how they appear in results and social profiles.
Now we can share our awards and important posts on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter, when people search for you. Important images or news on you or your company are more easily seen.
Not a bad image for people to find below of my search results. I would be impressed if I found this on someone else. You never know who may come across your info and lead to business.
I know for me personally I have been a promoter and user of Klout since I began my company and let's say business is good.
So sign up for Klout then connect your LinkedIn profile and you will be able to set up your BING results. Here are images I found when I did my search each leading to an article or profile. Free PR!!
Then when anyone looks you up on Bing, your info will be displayed next to the search results and will have your social profiles, LinkedIn profile, Klout score even twitter and instagram posts.
Below are my video results I didn't even know existed in search! Pretty cool! They include any video that had the tag JMHHACKER whether made by me or not.
You can control what is found by editing your public LinkedIn profile. You can also turn off the display of Twitter and Instagram moments on Bing.
So if you haven't yet set yours up today as it has only helped my business and ALL of my clients gain much more brand awareness.
