You should have seen my first website picture - I decided that it didn't convey the image that I wanted, so I removed it. I like seeing the face behind the blog, too. :) Thanks, Opal.

I'm currently working on the list you mentioned. I put it on my "to do" pile for this week. Actually, I need to do something like this on my main website also. I've received most of my clients from my main website. I have business products for my natural skin & hair care business, but I need to business cards that focus on writing. I had my picture on my website, but I took it down. I want to take another photo and add it to my about page. I like seeing the face behind the author. I always flip to the back of the book to see whether the writer has included their photo. :-) These are excellent tips.

Alexander, I get inquiries through my site, but I use the profiles when bidding/sending queries to encourage prospective clients to look at my work. Katherine, I got a job this week, because I was able to be one of the first three bidders. :) Thanks for your comments, everyone.
