Man, was I in a writing mood today. It’s been a while since I’ve felt so full of words. My fingers have been glued to my keyboard for hours, and I’m pretty sure I’ve written more today then I have written this whole week! There are several posts on draft, but I have used most of my time to get my “About Me” page updated. If you’re interested, just click over to read more about Bob.
Just a few quick points on why I believe that solid About pages are important to have.
- You only get one chance for a first impression. This page is a reflection of you.
- Consider it your resume. People will form an opinion on you, going by what you’ve told them.
- The page is static, and it is only one click away. Put in some effort, people will notice it.
- It’s a time saver, as It will allow you to have certain questions about yourself answered.
- It shows your commitment to your blog. You won’t be thought of as a fad.

It’s in need of a little refresh, but here’s our “About” page:

I especially like that your “About” page is not just an intro to you, but a story about who you are. However, maybe you need a different (or additional) photo of yourself – or maybe you & your wife?
Aw man, everyone is complaining about the photo, but I like it!
yes, i agree that sometimes you can just write and write and write. i usually go in phases with that though…where I really have a lot to say and then it disappears for a long time. i have been busy writing lately for http://www.floppycats.com but cannot get into my other site, http://www.antioxidant-fruits.com. nice post, though, enjoyed it.
As long as you’re writing, I guess it doesn’t matter that much if its just for one of your sites. At least you’re being productive
