# Bio & Links

Your biography, location, and links shape the public "about" experience on your producer profile.

## Writing Your Biography

Your producer bio appears inside the public profile's about content.

### What to Include

* **Your background** — How you got into making beats
* **Your style** — What makes your sound unique
* **Your influences** — Artists and genres that inspire you
* **Your achievements** — Notable placements, collaborations, or milestones
* **What you're working on** — Current projects or upcoming releases

### Bio Tips

* **Be authentic** — Write in your own voice

| **Genres**        | Separate profile metadata set from the **Details** tab |

## Best Practices

### For Your Bio

* Keep the first few sentences compelling—they appear before any "Show more" link
* Mention your main genres and style early
* Include any notable accomplishments
* Update it when you have news to share

### For Your Links

* Prioritize active social accounts
* Remove links to inactive profiles
* Keep links current—broken links look unprofessional
* Consider what platforms your target audience uses most

<Note>
  Use full URLs so BeatPass can render the links correctly.
