That&#8217;s why popular toymakers Melissa &amp; Doug <a href=\"https:\/\/www.melissaanddoug.com\/meet-melissa-and-doug.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">come right out and say they&#8217;re real people<\/a> on their About Us page, which is every bit as lighthearted as you&#8217;d expect for people who make toys.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-18997\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-27-at-12.32.25-AM-1024x365.png\" alt=\"humorous about us page example\" width=\"506\" height=\"180\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-27-at-12.32.25-AM-1024x365.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-27-at-12.32.25-AM-300x107.png 300w, https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-27-at-12.32.25-AM-768x274.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 506px) 100vw, 506px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Your About Us page also needs to include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>your name<\/li>\n<li>your location<\/li>\n<li>a photo or video of you that reflects your brand and personality<\/li>\n<li>contact details like a phone number, email address, and company social media accounts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Before they shop with you, <a href=\"https:\/\/roundrockhoney.com\/about-us\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">customers also want to know that they can reach you if they need to.<\/a> Consider this About Us excerpt from Round Rock Honey: 'We believe in our honey so much that if you ever have a question, just look on the back of our bottle.

A great About Us page also helps more people find your site.<\/p>\n<p>To do this, you&#8217;ll need to use some SEO tools to help your site show up when people search for what you offer. Make sure your About Us page includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/understanding-long-tail-keywords\/\">Long-tail keyword phrases<\/a> that help people zero in on what they need.<\/b> If you sell school uniforms in Dallas, don&#8217;t rely on 'school uniforms'\u009d to drive search traffic to your site. Include 'school uniforms in Dallas'\u009d or 'school uniforms for Dallas-area charter schools'\u009d or whatever is accurately describes in detail what your customers search for.<\/li>\n<li><b>On-site SEO titles, meta descriptions, and tags for your About Us page with your most important keywords. <\/b>Your meta description will appear in search results, so make every word count: 'Zippy&#8217;s is the fastest and best courier service in the greater Houston area.
