Your page stays private while you work on it. Publishing makes it visible to anyone with the link. Open your page from Pages.
Go live
- Open the page in the editor and press Publish at the top.
- Type your Public link name. The page will be at
wordgptpro.com/u/<your-link-name>. - Switch on Published (anyone with the link can see it) and press Publish.
If you want search engines to list the page, also switch on Let search engines find this page. Leave it off if only people you give the link to should see it.
The link name is shared with published resumes, so a name that is already taken has to be changed. Pick something short and easy to say aloud, like your name or your name and profession.
Share it
Once it is live, the same dialog (now called Share) shows the link with a Copy button. Use it in your email signature, on your social profiles, on a business card or in a message. Open it yourself in a private browser window first, to see what a visitor sees.
Changing things later
You can keep editing a published page. Changes appear on the live page, so review them before you leave the editor. If you rebuild a page from your resume, undo is available right away if you do not like the result.
Unpublish
Not ready, or no longer needed? Open Share, switch off Published and save: the link stops working. Your page is still there in Pages, ready to edit and publish again.
Before you publish: privacy
- Show only the contact details you are comfortable having public.
- Do not publish other people's personal data, or pictures you do not have the right to use.
- Remember that a public page can be copied or saved by visitors.
