Link your ORCID to other services including ResearcherID, figshare, Sage Policy Profiles, and other professional organizations.
This maximizes the visibility of your research and maximizes the potential for the research and publications listed in your ORCID account to be automatically pushed into applications or pulled into other systems (e.g., grant databases or expert profiles).
If you have published under other names, be sure this is reflected in your ORCID profile.
Provide your D as prompted when submitting manuscripts and grant proposals.
Include your ORCID iD on conference posters, webpages, email signature lines, blogs, business cards, social media accounts--anywhere you would benefit from refering others quickly and reliably to the body of your research.
