What to Write On Your About Me Page!

What should you put into your about me section and why this is important? I am going to give you some valuable information for your ABOUT ME section for social networking sites or on your central hub, your blog.

The hardest page to create is writing your about me page because you are dealing with yourself. It is a subject that you know better than anyone else. Yet it can be difficult to divulge information about ourselves, you can get confused about what kind of information to talk about. Make this informative without being too wordy. It is an essential tool to confirm who you are.

When a potential client visits your website this will be the first thing that they will notice, make this your home page.. It will let your audience know more about YOU on a deeper level. This is a great way to let others connect with you in a personal and friendly way. Here's where you will place personal photo's of yourself. Make sure you have a Big Smile this attracts. Pictures are very powerful and will make your page come alive. Be sure to put a variety of pictures about all areas your life, your family, your home, vacations, any pictures that you may have.

Introduce yourself, tell about something that you have created, whether it be your blog or the articles that you have written, just about anything. You want to set up yourself as a person of authority. Just write a short statement letting others know about yourself. You want to arouse their curiosity to make them want to continue reading.

Now tell them about your personal background. Where you live, your family, about the jobs that you have had, your hobbies, goals, your interests. Build a relationship with your readers. You will want to find someone who has the same interests as yourself to create a connection. Give them some information about how your opportunity has helped solved your problem. How has your product helped you? Don't make anything up just give the facts, make it personal. You could add a testimony from someone else in this section as well, testimonies are powerful.

The call to action, tell them exactly what you want them to do. Go here and do what? This is very important do not forget to let them know what to do next. How about a description about who you are looking for? This will pre-qualify the type of prospects you are looking to work with. It will help sort out the wrong kind of people for you.

At the bottom of your about me page give a clear means of contact, include your email address and your phone number just incase they have questions for you. Also make sure you have a link to your other websites that you may have, especially any capture pages. 　

Hopefully this will inspire you come up with some unique and inventive ways of representing yourself on the web

Re: Quote of the Day - "Have the courage to follow your heart an - [quote="GT Bulmer":102twzd2]Hi, Evan: I haven't yet managed to capitalize on the longings of my heart as successfully as Jobs did[/quote:102twzd2] Hi GT - I woke up thinking about this post and I have a challenge for you for May if you're up to it. Here it is: Write the blog post / article you were born to write. Write something that you can pour your heart and all your passion into. Write something where you can change the life of the person reading it. Write something where if you look back in 10 years you'll be really proud of what you created. Can you do that? I'd love to read it (and I bet a lot of others will too!)
Page Rank Changes - Hi Kevin - there is a lot of speculation as to why so many websites lost Page Rank. A few new sites that I've been following also got Page Rank for the first time. Every time Google does a Page Rank update there are websites that get caught in the crossfire and have to work to get their rankings back up!
Re: Facebook Fan Pages - Hi Terri, I haven't yet started a Fan Page of my own (it's on my to-do list), so I don't have any tips to share yet. What others have mentioned about giveaways is a good idea. I also think updating your page with useful content on a regular basis is a must to keep Fans interested and coming back. This can easily be done if you have a blog because they allow you to import RSS feeds on your page. Every time you make a new blog post, your Fan Page can be updated.
www.tobuso.com and www.paperrollshop.com - Please take a look at these and tell me what I should do. I am too close to them to see it objectively at this point. The main on is the tobuso.com one. The other is just a paper roll side bar project. I have had a guy working on tobuso.com for about 2 weeks or so. I really dont understand why it doesnt have any Google Page Rank yet. I am starting to move up in the rankings for my targeted keyword but I am lacking in the google Page Rank and cannot figure out why. I guess it may just take more time. See if that is what it looks like to you.
Facebook Fan Pages - I have a Facebook Fan Page for my business, Solo-E.com. But my efforts at really getting it going (getting new fans, promoting discussion/interaction, etc.) have been, I'll admit, half-hearted. The biggest reason? I hardly ever visit the fan pages of other solo entrepreneurs, even those that I hugely admire. How about you? Do you regularly visit fan pages? What draws you to them, if you do visit? If you do have a Fan Page, what has your experience been with making it successful? How do you even measure that success??
