Introducing a more powerful “About me” editor for your profile

Written by Alex White | January 5, 2018

Your “About me” is one of the most prominent parts of your profile and a great tool for describing yourself to potential clients. 

While you have always been able to customize this section using text, images, and various styles, this process has recently been made easier and more visual. Adding images or formatting text in your “About me” no longer requires learning HTML code. Instead, these tasks can now be accomplished through the use of the new visual editor (similar to a word processing program such as Word or Pages).

Tailoring your profile to the various languages of your potential clients is an important way to make yourself standout. The new “About me” editor allows you to easily localize your “About me” text in different languages.

You can find the updated “About me” editor in the Profile Updater.

A great resource to help you create a standout “About me” can be found here. If you have any questions about these changes, please comment below or join the discussion in the Translator Coop forum at ProZ.com.
