Reviews

I really like it. 

I share my about.me link with people whom I meet but don't want to send directly to my Facebook account.  (this was before G+)  I work in events and in many social spaces.  Its business but also social.  I use my about.me profile to allow people to explore both my Professional and Social side of my online life before we become friends on fbk or other. 

Love the clean layout.  

 

Wonderful app! Great way to connect with others! The staff and user are truly inspiring! I support who they're and what they freely provide for us! They don't ask for anything. Just a place for us all to share our gifts. Thank you about me! Your wonderful!

Designing Webpage

     About.me is pretty simple with many prompts to guide you through the process.  It looks professional, clean, and also different.  It easy to change background photos, bio photos (which I was still trying to figure out), and setting up a back story to further explain yourself.  It also links you to all other profiles you wish to add.  To add photos you click your name tab and it will bring down options of how to edit your page to your hearts content.

Review of Website

  1.  Visual Design - It's simple, clear, and it appears to have one template with many customization options.  
  2. Navigation-  Simple to add other web presences. Easy to navigate through different options, but it might take some getting use to.

  3. Cost- Free !!
