# Profile Optimization: Feature Stacks and Build Authority

## Profile Optimization: Feature Stacks and Build Authority

Your Stacklist profile is your curator homepage. Featured stacks show your expertise and drive traffic to your best collections.

### Setting Up Your Profile
1. Add a clear display name
2. Write a bio (2000 chars max) introducing yourself and your curation focus
3. Upload a profile photo
4. Add a cover image
5. Choose a profile template: full-width (open) or boxed (card layout)
6. Add social links (Twitter, LinkedIn, website, etc.)
7. Set a primary call-to-action button if needed

### Featuring Stacks on Your Profile
Not all stacks appear on your profile by default. You must explicitly feature them:
1. Go to a public stack
2. Click "Feature on profile"
3. Choose display variant: compact (simple card) or expanded (shows cards)
4. Reorder featured stacks by dragging

### Which Stacks to Feature
Feature 3-6 of your best, most complete stacks that showcase your expertise. Private stacks won't show on your public profile, so make them public first.

### Profile SEO Tips
- Use your real name or brand name in your display name
- Write a bio that explains your curation focus
- Feature stacks with clear, descriptive names
- Keep your profile fresh by rotating featured stacks
- Add social links so people can follow you elsewhere
- Use a professional profile photo

### Profile Templates
- Full-width: showcase stacks in an open, spacious layout
- Boxed: display stacks as compact cards

Choose whichever feels most like your brand.

### Making Your Profile Discoverable
Your profile is indexed by search engines when:
- You have at least one public stack
- That stack has at least one card
- The stack is featured on your profile

Featured stacks appear in Stacklist's category hubs and can rank in AI search results.
