It’s a perfect opportunity for you to present your brand and show readers value of your blog. Before you start writing your ‘About Me’ page, write a few main points that you want to include and that can be useful for your readers. You need to show people why they should work with YOU or why to read YOUR blog! Moreover, make sure you have a clear picture of who is your blog or website aimed for. Only by knowing your target audience, you will be able to craft a great pitch about yourself and your business.

What to Include?

There are 4 main goals in writing your ‘About Me’ page and that’s telling who you are, what you do, how you got there and why they should read your blog! 

Now, before you start writing, decide whether you want to write in the first or the third person and stay consistent throughout your writing. Writing in first person is usually used for the personal brands or blogs, and third person writing can be used for companies or businesses that offer products and services.

To grab readers’ attention, start with the eye-catching first few sentences that show value, so readers will want to continue reading. Keep it short but be creative, tell your story, introduce yourself and your business and be honest with your readers. Remember to include only the most important but also most relevant information and show readers how they can benefit from reading it. People will always be eager to know about how or why you started doing what you are doing and how it can help them, so make sure you cover these parts. Although, sometimes it might be better not to have ‘About Me’ page than having a bad one that doesn’t add any value to your readers. So think about the content you want to include because it’s super important!

Another important aspect of your page is to have a professional photo included, to break up the text but also to make it more personal! It increases readers’ trust, and it also presents you and your business. If your website is about a product or service, you can also include a logo of the company.
