About
  1. What is an about page?
    One of the most important pages on a personal website is the about me page. When someone comes to your website for the first time the chances are they are going to check out the about me page and learn all about you.

    So in order for you to create the right image, you need to create a compelling about me page that includes the following elements:

    Image
    I don't care if you are the ugliest person in the world, you need to place an image of yourself on the about me page. That way your readers can connect with you and get to know you on a personal level. If you don't include an image you will just be branding your name as an expert. In that case, I hope there is no one else out there with the same name as you.
    About Yourself
    The main point of the about me page is to talk about yourself. People usually just talk about their background and education, but you also need to discuss your expertise and even life experiences so that you can better brand yourself.
    Helping Others
    People see thousands of about pages in their lifetime, which is why they don't remember most of them. The key with a good about me page is that you express how you can help the visitor / reader so that they will remember you.
    Contact
    Once you have made a strong impact on the visitor, chances are high that they will visit your website again or even contact you. Because of this you need to make it easy for people to contact you through your about me page.
