Have you ever wanted to have your own personal website, but always thought that it was too expensive or too involved to make it worth your time? We think that an individual website is a very worthwhile for many people. And we are here to help you make this possibility a reality!
Below, we supply you with some Key Reasons why you should have your own website, along with Key Elements that should be included. It Is Your Time To Shine!
YOUR OWN PERSONAL WEBSITE | IT IS YOUR TIME TO SHINE!
Whether you want your website to focus on a personal event that is coming up in your life or you want your personal website to focus on you all the time, we can show you how to make this happen. Your "Personal Branding" is as unique as you are and your website should help tell that story. First impressions mean a lot and you only have one shot for you to make a good one.
A website designed by SPC Multimedia Group can help you connect with family, a particular group of friends and relatives, or maybe you want the world to know more about you and your capabilities! Some key reasons individuals should want their own website are:
• You Get To Control Your Own Personal Brand
• A Special Event In Your Life
• Your Own Personal Portfolio
• Searching For A New Position Or Project In Your Life
• Show Your Own Personal Creativity
Websites can be ongoing, for most of your life. Or maybe you want a website for a special personal event; such as a wedding, family trip, or maybe a very special anniversary celebration. Websites are a distinct way of keeping people informed. With your own personal website, your personality can shine through. When people find you, they will have an immediate, visual portrayal of who you are or what your event is. Most people think that having their own personal website can be a very expensive, very time consuming, and is not really worth it.
THIS IS SO FAR FROM THE TRUTH. LET US SHOW YOU WHY!
Personal Branding. At one time, branding was considered something that only large companies used. But not anymore. Having a good brand incorporates much more than just a good logo. Yes, you should incorporate your logo, which can be as easy as your name in a particular font, along with the colors you use on your site, the photos you use and where you place them, but most important is your "Personal Voice". Your writings throughout the website. It All Represents YOU!
Your Personal Brand needs to represent you and allow visitors to your site, an understanding of who you are, which makes you stand out and helps to make you more memorable.
Your Portfolio. When people arrive on your website, you want to portray who you are, what you do, and what you have accomplished. Furthermore, if this website is primarily for a possible job hire, you want your particular qualities and work skills to stand out. Why they would want you involved with their company or project. Writing a novel on your life story is not the objective of your portfolio, but rather enlightening visitors how you can help and participate in your possible job function or project.
Some people have a completely separate page for their Portfolio and some use their "About Me" page to share relevant information that impact on their professional life.
• Their Education,
• Their Special Skills And Expertise,
• What Their Latest Project Or Job Was That They Worked On,
• Their Personal Interests And Possibly A Few Hobbies.
Remember, people are mostly, visual. So the more you can show, rather than tell, the better. By featuring examples of your work, the better your visitors will be able to identify with you. It is all about "Personal Branding".
Personal Creativity... These are your ideas, your innovations, and your personal insights. Think of your website as writing a book. A very condensed book, but a book about you! Display your personal writing ability, by providing your perspectives, relevant ideas, communication skills, and open-mindedness. You want to put your best foot forward. This is where people will see you for the first time, so Impress Them!
Also, if you are creating this website for a special event, you want to make sure that you have included all the pertinent information that will be needed, into it. As stated earlier, a picture can portray a thousand words. So be visual when you can, but make sure you have all the information needed and why it is important for your visitors to communicate with you. Especially if you are doing an Event Site.
Your Resume. If you have ever found yourself having to prepare an actual Resume from scratch, you know that it can be a very daunting project for some. We are not saying you have to put an actual resume into a page of your website, because let's be honest, your website is your resume. But if you are putting together this website so you can acquire a new project or an actual job position, you may want to consider having a resume written up and able to be downloaded from your website. This way you can use your website for dual purposes. However, whatever the reason is for your website and how you want to layout your website, SPC Multimedia Group will be there for you. We can help you develop, design, publish, and host your website, to get the best presence in front of your audience.
And if you need that actual resume, we can help with that too. Just "Click Here" to find out more about resumes.
Personal websites mean "personal", right? Well, yes and no. It does not mean you have to share every little shred of your personal details. Just remember, you want to make sure all pertinent information that is needed to convey your story is covered, but if you are using your website to convince potential employers or possibly potential customers of what you are capable of, you want the correct information that will help make a compelling reason they should hire you or purchase from you.
Knowing this, here are some essential elements that you should include into your personal website, depending upon the type of website you are needing.
SOME IMPORTANT ELEMENTS YOU SHOULD CONSIDER...
01. Your Personal Biography :: The Who, What, When Where, Why, and How
For a personal event type website, upon the arrival of your visitors on your website, you want to make sure they know:
• Who You Are,
• What The Topic Of The Website Is,
• When The Event Is,
• Where The Event Is,
• Why You Are Having The Event, and
• How They Can Be Involved.
If this is your own personal professional website that includes trying to drum up business, projects, or possibly for a job directly for a company, you want to make sure they know:
Who You Are,
What You Do,
What Skills or Specific Qualities You Have, and
How You Have Earned These Skills (Your Resume).
Again, this is your personal website, where you want to shine!
02. Personal Examples Of Your Work
If you are trying to take on a specific position in someone's company, you want to put your best foot forward. If you are in the field of graphic design, then make sure you show samples of your work. If you are a photographer, make sure you install your best photographs and where you shot them at. Other positions, such as writers, can post some of there work within the website or link to their articles that they have published in other media areas.
If you are in sales, showcase what you sell and why you believe in your products or services, along with how long you have been selling and what industries you are involved with. There are always companies looking for qualified sales representatives to help boost their sales.
You know who you are, what you know, and where you want to go. So make sure your visitors know that too. But remember, you want to showcase your best work, not all your work.
03. Testimoninals Towards Your Work
This can be a very crucial element that you should include within your website. They work as proof of your work and help to build your credibility within the industry. Mainly, they help demonstrate to future employers that you are capable of working and collaborating with others. They also speak volumes about some of your soft skills that may be needed for future jobs.
One thing about testimonials, make sure they contain the meat and potato comments. Not fluff and buff comments. You want them to mention your expertise and experience with the projects or positions that you have had. Not just how great you are or how very knowledgeable you are. It is okay for those to be mixed in, by not listed by themselves.
04. Your Personal Contact Information
This is an extremely important part of your website. If you have the best website and profile in the world, but your visitors can't get in touch with you, well, all the work was for nothing. We suggest that you have a number of ways for people to contact you:
• A Specific Email Address, Just For Use With Your Website
• A Specific Mailing Address
• A Specific Phone Number (An Exemplary Idea)
• Any Social Media Links Showing Your Professional Presence
Note. If you are uncomfortable putting your actual home address into your website, you can get a Post Office Box in your town or just put in the city and state you reside.
05. Your Personal Resume
Once again, an actual resume is a very critical inclusion if you are looking for a new business position or are looking for new projects to acquire. So it should be a good one. Remember, the resume itself is the most important thing. Where it is placed in your website can be an acquired taste. Place it on a separate page or have a special link to download it. This is your choice. But it should be very visual. Easy for the person who is looking for it, to find it.
SPC Multimedia Group has a whole "Resume Building" page that can help you. Whether you want to tackle this on your own or you want to have us help you with it, we are happy to be there for you. For further information on resumes, "Click Here".
06. Personal Branding
We can never say enough about personal branding. We covered this further up the page, but here it is again.
At one time, branding was considered something that only large companies used. But not anymore. Having a good brand incorporates much more than just a good logo. Yes, you should incorporate your logo, which can be as easy as your name in a particular font, along with the colors you use on your site, the photos you use and where you place them, but most important is your "Personal Voice". Your writings throughout the website. It All Represents YOU!
Your Personal Brand needs to represent you and allow visitors to your site, an understanding of who you are, which makes you stand out and helps to make you more memorable.
07. Your Own Personal Blog
Some people want a complete personal website and some people just want to have a Personal Blog. But why not have both. This is one of the best ways to show your audience your ongoing expertise by sharing your knowledge with them. That is where a Blog can come into play. Whether you do updates for your Blog or you have SPC Multimedia Group update your Blog, it can be a very versatile tool.
You can show your particular audience your understanding of the industry you work in, as well as sharing your insights over time. You can share updates on your industry, tips and special tricks that relate to your knowledge of business, as well as case studies about the latest trends within your industry.
Remember, using a Blog will help establish you with a clear path as a leader and will help you drive more traffic to your website.
08. Your Elevator Speech
What is an Elevator Speech? Well, it actually has various names. Elevator speech, elevator pitch, banner story, key phrase, etc. It is actually a way for your to sum up who you are and what your profession is and where you are going. This small synopsis explaining these items, should be included within your home page as well as on your about you page. Here at SPC Multimedia Group, likes to incorporate this into all pages of your website. We have various ways to load this into all your pages, just ask.
This speech will help potential employers to see if you are a possible candidate for the position they are trying to fill. It also helps in you avoiding getting multiple offers that would not be right for you. The short of it, it saves you and potential employers time and helps to ensure you receive more relevant offers.
09. A Really Good Personal Photo
While a traditional resume does not really lend itself to including multiple images, a personal website does. If you have a separate page for your resume, you can include various photographs, that will help you stand out and show potential employers the actual person behind the resume.
It should go without saying that these should be professional styled pictures, not those special pictures that you share on your personal social media pages. Once again, put your best foot (or face) forward.
If you are going to allow potential recruiters or employers to download an actual resume, make sure to put one, very professional photograph on the resume, with the same photograph near the special link to download it.
10. Links To Your Social Media Pages
This can be a bit tricky. Remember, you want to get your resumes into the hands of the right people. However, once they get it, they will probably do their due diligence and google you. They may find some social media pages that are very personal, which is not exactly what you want them to find. So why not take the initiative, and include your professional social media links into your resume to make it easier, and better, for them to find. This points them to where you want them to go, instead of leaving it to the roll of the dice (or those little web crawlers).
Think of setting up a professional Facebook and LinkedIn profile. It is free to do and it will not only show potential recruiters and employers the balance of your online presence, but it also offers other ways for people to get in touch with you and opens other avenues for potential leads and contacts.
