Hey all!

 

I've been working on trying the perfect about page to attract readers and to convince them to stick around. What would you want to see on an about page? What's yours like? Any tips?

 

My two about pages are here: http://studenomics.com/about/ or http://kettlebellrebels.com/about-kr/

 

I would love any feedback.

For my taste, I usually don't stick around if the first line contains a four-letter word.  (I'm also a different generation than you.)  But then again, one of my favorite bloggers is J Money, and his blogging is edgy like that.

Cater it to whatever audience you want to target.

Martin,

 

I love Paula's 'about' page (Afford Anything) – have a look. I just checked yours out and one way to improve it may be to get rid of some words – still too many, it seems to me. (I am still working on mine so…)
