Like Suzie, I also check out blog About pages – Read and action YOURS as necessary folks AND List ALL your online links so people can follow you everywhere… 😃
When I discover a blog for the first time, it’s rare that I will look at the posts on the home page. Instead, I will usually click straight onto the About page, as this will hopefully tell me about the author and the general theme of the blog itself. If I’m pressed for time, I’ll often make a quick decision based upon what I see there as to whether I wish to delve further. They are also a place where I will go if I want to ask a blogger a question that isn’t related to any of their posts.
Today I noticed that a number of people had clicked on my About page and came to the realisation that it is in need of some serious updating, particularly as the rest of my blog has undergone a huge transformation recently, and I have gained a number of new followers.

I think it is a real shame when you click on an “About” page only to read, “this is an example of a WordPress page …”. The rest of the blog may be great (and often is), however the “About” page provides the first impression and if that is a bad one, the visitor may not check out the other posts. Kevin

How ironic to open this blog today when I was just working on updating my “About” page. 🙂 Sychronicity!! https://rijanjks.wordpress.com/about/
