Having an attention-getting and informative About Me page on your website is a great way to help your visitors decide that they want to contact you. It helps them feel like they know you better and maybe have something in common with you.
I saw this wonderfully creative About Me page by Melissa Galt of Prosper by Design, who shows her clients how to “be the star in their own lives and professions.” With her permission I wanted to pass this on to my followers. It starts with some introductory text but most of it is a montage of photos and descriptions that are so interesting to read and give real insight about Melissa and her personality. The photo shown here is the first of several, so you’ll want to visit her site at the link above to see the whole montage, and check out the rest of her site.
Don’t forget that photos aren’t read by search engines, so to improve SEO you want to have some text with your keywords and phrases and/or tag your photos.
Then Melissa took this idea a step further. She put the photo montage in a custom app called About Melissa on her Facebook fan page Melissa Galt-Prospering by Design so visitors to her fan page also have quick access to learn more about her.
Hopefully this will inspire you to get creative with your About Me page. Don’t be afraid to think outside the box and let your true personality shine through!
