Part of our guide to personal reputation management — part of Your Personal Website and Domain: The Result You Actually Own. This page answers one specific question from that guide.

What pages does a personal website actually need?

From the Personal Reputation Management team · Last updated October 19, 2026

We’re still writing this guide — here’s what we have so far. The short answer below is ready to use today, and the outline shows exactly what the finished guide will cover. In the meantime, the completed guides in the Knowledge Center cover the foundations.

Short answer: For most individuals, one excellent page: headline with name, profession, and city; a short honest bio; career as your resume states it; selected real work; links to your real profiles; and a professional contact route. Add a projects or writing page only when it earns its keep. Every extra page is maintenance debt, and an empty section should be omitted, never padded — our drafts render only approved facts for exactly this reason.

Honest by design — including what we don't do

What we do

Show you what people find, result by result, and ask you to confirm what's actually you.
Build your personal site from facts you approved — nothing is published without your approval.
Use licensed search data and official tools only. No scraping.
Keep watch weekly, in plain English, with one clear next step.

What we never do

No fake reviews, fake profiles, fake news, or bought links.
No bogus takedown notices, and no promises to remove results or guarantee rankings.
No searching for anyone but you, and we never sell your data.
