Tip: Update Your Personal Profile

A friendly profile will make your community feel more inviting…

Often your online profile is the very first impression your neighbors will have about you. 

If a new neighbor knows what their neighbors look like, and a little something about them, they will feel less isolated and be more likely to become involved.  Meetings and social events can be intimidating for a new person who doesn’t know anything about anybody.
 

It's very easy to update your personal profile:

  • Login to Neighborhood Link
  • Click ‘Your Profile’ in the left column of the website
  • Click the ‘Edit’ button

Some Ideas of What to Include:

  • A picture of yourself.
  • A brief history of what brought you to this community.
  • Some things you’ve enjoyed about living in your neighborhood.
  • A link to your personal website, blog, or facebook page.
  • Your hobbies or other things that interest you.
  • You can also include promotional information… if you’re a Realtor, plumber, landscaper, etc. this is a great place to talk about what you do.
