Profile Killers: Are You Making These Mistakes?

Are you making these mistakes? The good news is that these are easy and quick fixes that will allow your profile to get more clicks!
Profile Killer #1
No Profile Photo-
If you have no photo for your profile, I can almost guarantee you that your profile is not being looked at…at all!. For example, if you were on a dating website, would you click on profiles with a photo or without one? And what would you think about the person without the photo? That they were ugly? Dishonest? Didn’t really want a date? It’s the same thing when it comes to your photo on BHS. People relate to images and pictures of people.
Profile Killer #2 (a)-
No Photo Album
If you don’t have any pictures of clients, you are not displaying your talents! People want to see how you do your flips, your weaving, your fades, your cuts! That’s why they came to the website. A picture is worth a thousand words!
Profile Killer #2 (b)-Putting Up Pictures of Only Yourself Instead of Your Clients There is nothing wrong with showing your beautiful face, but make sure you’re using the photo album to get more publicity.
Profile Killer #3-
Not Updating Your Google Maps…or No Address!
If a potential client wants to find you, they want an exact location. Make sure you include your address, AND make sure that you change your Google Map settings so that the pin mark will not sit smack dab in the middle of the city, but on the street! You can do this by clicking on “My Profile”, and on the box with the Google Maps, you will see a link that will allow you to adjust your map settings.
Profile Killer #4-
Having a Distracting Page Layout
Some page layouts are wonderful and complement your page. But make sure not to have a layout that distracts a potential customer from viewing your contact information, pictures, or videos. Customization is a good way to show personality, but it may be a detriment if the customer decides to click off of your profile, going to another one that is easier on the eyes!
Profile Killer #5
Not having a working URL or not including the “http” in front of the www. You want to give your users a clean transition from BHS to your website! Make sure your website is always running smoothly too!
