Step 2. Click on  ”Create a list.” Name it “Limited Profile,” “Professional contacts,” “Blocked People,” or whatever name you want it to be . I prefer ‘Limited Profile’  .

Step 3. Go to ‘Privacy Settings’  which is under the ‘Home’ tab arrow . Click on “edit settings” next to “How you connect,” and, next to the last option (“Who can see Wall posts by others on your profile?”), click “custom”

Step 4. Provide the list name (Limited Profile )under the option “Hide from.” save it and you are done .
