why a WorldSupporter profile?

How do you create a personal WorldSupporter profile?

Can others respond to your contributions or you to others?

• Yes, that's possible. Especially if you invite others in your message to respond, or work with a question, concrete follow-up action for your reader, or, for example, challenge the reader with a statement, opinion or dilemma, others will respond.
• Anonymous responses are only possible to a limited extent and are only posted online after moderation (often once a week). Always log in to quickly use the comment option under a message posted by yourself or someone else.
• And as with all online profiles and social media, if you like others to respond to your contributions, please post a comment yourself in another Supporter's blog or contribution!
• Others can also easily follow you, or you, others, by clicking on the 'Follow' button under a mini-CV or avatar

How can others discover and view your profile?

• You can make your WorldSupporter profile public or only visible to other World Supporters
• You can alert others to the existence of your WorldSupporter profile in several ways:
  • by giving someone the direct link to your profile, or using the 'social share' options on the page
  • by creating content, with each contribution there is a link + photo/avatar to your personal profile
  • by leaving a comment/reaction - with a link - on content that matches your contribution(s)
  • via the overview of Worldsupporter profiles, where popular content will be highlighted more often
  • by linking your CV from your own social media posts or account

• Everyone writes differently and interprets 'nice' in different ways. Take a look at some blogs from other Supporters in the Magazine and think about why you like one contribution (written) more than the other.
• Check out the contributions of Supporter Nelleke: This is a blog that no one is going to read and Supporter Jessica: Why and how to blog

Tips:

• Vary - Always use different tools (blogs, suggestions, photos, bundles, etc.) to add something to your WorldSupporter CV and personal profile.
• Activate - Actively involve your personal network in your WorldSupporter activities. Share your latest content via social media and get them to follow your profile and mark your contributions as a 'favorite'. The more followers and 'favorite' flags, the more you appear on home pages and overviews.
• Motivate - actively read content from other Supporters and let them know what you think of their content, maybe they will also take a look at your personal profile
• Complete - use the add image options, add any relevant tags/categories and use the 'resources' option to provide specific 'read more' suggestions
