Getting Started

Get found after you publish

Updated June 9, 2026

You published your profile. Nice work. Now the job changes. A published profile is live, but no one shows up until you point them to it. This guide is your short map of every way to get your link out there, and how to tell what's working. It's no trouble.

I published my profile, now what?

Publishing makes your profile live. It does not make people find it. Search engines haven't seen it yet. And no one has your link unless you hand it to them.

So your next move is to put your link where your people already are. Work down this short list, top to bottom. Each one links to a step-by-step guide.

  1. Share your profile by text, chat, or email. This is the fastest start.
  2. Put your link in your social bios so your followers can tap through.
  3. Print your QR code for flyers, cards, and events.
  4. Add your link to your email signature so it goes out with every message.
  5. Turn on search engines so people can find you on Google over time.

You don't have to do all five today. Even one gets your first visitors in.

How do I get people to see my profile?

People see your profile when your link reaches them. The quickest way is to send it straight to someone.

  1. Copy your link, then paste it into a text, a chat, or an email. The share your profile guide shows where the Copy button is.
  2. Send it to a few people who'd want it: friends, clients, your group.
  3. Ask them to open it and, if they like it, pass it on.

That first handful of visits matters. It gets your numbers moving, and it tells you the link actually works.

How do I promote my profile?

Promoting your profile means putting the link in the spots people already look. Pick the ones that fit you:

The trick isn't doing all of it. It's putting the link where the people you want will actually see it.

Nobody is visiting my profile

A quiet profile almost always comes down to one thing: the link hasn't reached anyone yet. A few common reasons, and what to do:

  • You haven't shared it anywhere. This is the usual one. Send your link to a few people to get your first visits, using the share your profile guide.
  • Your link isn't in your bios. Put your link in your bio so the people who already follow you can tap through.
  • You're only counting on search. Search engines take time and need to be switched on. Turn on search indexing for the long game, but don't wait on it for your first visitors.
  • The profile may still be private. Open your profile settings and check that Published is on. A private profile can't be opened by anyone outside your account.

Once your link is out in even one place, visits start to come in.

How do I drive traffic to my link?

Driving traffic means more people clicking through to your profile, over and over. A few habits that keep visitors coming:

  • Put the link in more than one place. Bios, your email signature, your QR code, your other sites. More doors means more visitors.
  • Share it again now and then. People miss a post the first time. A fresh mention brings a new wave.
  • Make it scannable in person. Put a printed QR code on your flyers, cards, and signs at events.
  • Give search engines time to help. Once you show up in search, people who look up your name can find you on their own.

Did it work? Check your Reports

You don't have to guess whether your sharing paid off. Your Reports page shows it, and it's free on every plan.

After you've shared your link, open Reports to see:

  • How many people visited your profile, and whether that number is going up.
  • Where they came from. A visit from a link you posted on Instagram, or from a directory like Yelp or The Knot, shows up under its real source, so you can tell what's pulling people in.
  • Your most popular links. The Top links & forms table lists which of your links got the most clicks for the period, so you learn what people actually want.

Give it a few hours after sharing before you check. Visits roll up in the background, so your newest ones take a little time to appear. Use Reports to see which spots send you the most people, then lean into those.
