Build a Fully Customizable Personal Website With branded.me

branded.meI’ve been away from this blog for quite some time working on new products and services to support my audience. One new product I’ve been advising is called branded.me, out of my belief that everyone in the world should have their own website for their personal brand.

Today branded.me launches the fastest and easiest way for a professional to create a completely customizable personal website. branded.me aims to empower individuals of all ages and skill levels to take control of their personal brands, and build personal websites in minutes, and even seconds.

Here is what makes branded.me different than competitors:

  • You won’t find a faster solution – the process is automated by using the LinkedIn API. With one click branded.me uses all the data from your LinkedIn profile to generate a mobile optimized website in seconds, which can be customized as much or little as desired. Don’t use LinkedIn? That’s ok, you can still use the service.
  • Offers completely customizable websites vs. the basic profile page you’ll find with about.me.
  • Focuses only on people not businesses, which means all themes are designed for personal use only.
  • Themes are advanced with design and animations you won’t find in other web builders.
  • Offers the ability to change themes at any point and have all content and edits transfer from one theme to the next. This is a big advantage over having to start over from scratch, which you’ll find in almost all web builders.

branded.me recently partnered with the .ME registry to produce the first of its kind research around personal websites and the benefits associated.  Out of over 15,000 respondents only 4%(600) had personal websites and qualified for the survey.

86% of people with personal websites received benefits such as job offers and career advancement.

76% of respondents opted to build the site themselves vs. hiring a designer, and 79% said it took up to a week or longer.

We hope that you will use these websites to your professional advantage and that you will suggest the product to a friend who can also benefit from it.
