First impressions mean a lot, which is why it\u2019s important to create a user profile in ArcGIS Online that\u2019s polished and professional.<\/p>\n

Your ArcGIS user profile is how the rest of the world learns about you. It\u2019s also a yardstick for measuring the value and veracity of your shared items and groups. Whether you\u2019re making maps and apps for others in your GIS department, for users across your organization, or making maps and apps for public access, it\u2019s both a good idea and a best practice to show your best profile if you want others to consider your content seriously.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

Create a professional profile<\/h2>\n

After getting your ArcGIS Online account, the first thing you should do is create a professional profile. After signing up you you\u2019ll be presented with your current account information (which is blank by default).<\/p>\n

Edit your bio<\/strong>
\nYour biography is the most important part of your profile, as it lets viewers know of who you are, what your role is, or a little more about the organization that you represent.<\/p>\n

Tip<\/strong>: Keep your bio brief while still being informative. Insert carriage returns to break up long paragraphs for easier reading.

What does a good profile card look like?<\/h2>\n

A professional profile card includes pertinent information about you, or the group or organization you represent. Things to consider including in your profile are a good avatar, some information about you, your roles and responsibilities (if appropriate), and contact information.<\/p>\n

You can make your profile as long as you want, but it needn\u2019t be a full biography or resume \u2013 just the important facts that will help others identify who you are.

Create a profile for your organization<\/h2>\n

When you share items on behalf of a company or organization, you may want the organization to be the recognized source instead of yourself or some other individual in the organization. This makes it easier to identify authoritative content originating from the organization, rather than an individual.<\/p>\n

You can create an account with a profile representing the organization, and the administrator can transfer ownership of items as needed to that account. Note that ArcGIS terms of use prohibits sharing of account logins, so this must be a separate account.<\/p>\n

The State of Utah Trust Lands Administration is a well-crafted example of an organization profile. Note the official logo, contact information, and link to the organization\u2019s website.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":798841,"id":798841,"title":"profile-22","filename":"profile-22.png","filesize":29494,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/02\/profile-22.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-online\/sharing-collaboration\/create-a-great-profile\/profile-22","alt":"Utah SITLA profile","author":"7641","description":"","caption":"","name":"profile-22","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":81251,"date":"2020-04-06 17:41:30","modified":"2020-04-06 17:41:48","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/png","type":"image","subtype":"png","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":366,"height":460,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/02\/profile-22-213x200.png","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/02\/profile-22.png","medium-width":208,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/02\/profile-22.png","medium_large-width":366,"medium_large-height":460,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/02\/profile-22.png","large-width":366,"large-height":460,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/02\/profile-22.png","1536x1536-width":366,"1536x1536-height":460,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/02\/profile-22.png","2048x2048-width":366,"2048x2048-height":460,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/02\/profile-22.png","card_image-width":366,"card_image-height":460,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/02\/profile-22.png","wide_image-width":366,"wide_image-height":460}},"image_position":"left-center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"
