Creator profiles

The page someone lands on when they decide whether to follow you.

What it shows

An avatar, a cover image behind it, a bio, and counts for followers, following, posts and media. The counts are the real ones.

Three tabs, not one wall

Posts is everything you have written. Media is only the photos and video, which is what most people are actually scrolling for. About is the longer version of who you are.

Splitting them matters more than it sounds: a visitor deciding whether to follow you is usually looking for one of those three specifically, and making them scroll past the other two is how you lose them.

Verified accounts

Some accounts carry a verified badge. It is displayed on the profile and alongside the account elsewhere in the app.

Public or private

A profile can be public or private, and that is separate from the audience you set on any individual post.

What a profile does not have

There are no story highlights. PulseSoc has no stories surface, so there is nothing to pin a row of them to at the top of a profile.

Questions

Can I make my profile private?
Yes. A profile can be public or private, separately from the audience you choose for any individual post.
Does a profile have story highlights?
No. PulseSoc does not have stories, so profiles have no highlights row.
