And the obvious... Build a Great Profile Page

-Make it a direct representation of yourself and your business
-Personalize it, add blog posts, 10+ pictures, and YouTube videos

*Although there are boundaries to posting links directly to your own url, there are virtually no limits to promoting your own profile or group which links to your site.

One Final Note:
Networking on Sta.rtUp.biz is no different from any other business networking event that you attend in person. The rules of success are the same.
1) You need to be well dressed - A nice profile and profile picture
2) You have to work the room - 100 comments a day
3) You engage before selling - Thoughtful comments
4) You ask for a business card - Make a friend request

You would never show up to an event in a tank top and start shouting out loud, "I sell insurance!" over and over again. It is rude, people will ignore you, and you will probably be escorted outside by security and told never to come back.

The same is true here.
