What is a Bio?

Bio definition: bio is short for biography. It refers to the area of a website page where a user or brand can include a description of who they are and what they do.

Biographies often contain useful marketing information such as:

  • Links to a website
  • Product information
  • Current offers or promotions

That can showcase, and redirect to, relevant brand (or personal) information.

The most common places to find biographies are in/on:

  • Blog posts
  • Social media profiles
  • About pages
  • Forum user pages
