I am working on my website and I spent lot of time on the About Us page. I think I made it very good. Do you think having a good About Us page is a good idea? Or a waste of time?

Don't spend time on just 1 page. Do it for all webpages. i prefer spending time more on the top page (since it's the very first page you can see). Good layout, good design, and most of all you have a good content.

well all what I know about us page is that it's good for SEO and to rank your website first, then it's good to get good visitors of your websites, because you can't know what is this website about from surfing all the pages, you need a page that explain the website idea for you. so it's not just waste of time

Yeah, I feel like when a new visitor first visits a site, they head to the about page. However, I agree with foullie. Every page should be well made.

my favourite is payment proof... but could be fake... so I go to forum... the about us could be fake too...

It's almost essential. Potential customers and visitors want to know what they are viewing or dealing with, and the 'About Us' page gives them exactly that.

Although the landing page is important I think from the perspective of someone new coming to the site an "About Page" is pretty important as this is the way the internet users discover more about the website/product/company. No About page would just look weird.

The about page gives all the info about you as the owner of the website so I thing it is a very important page on the website.

Does anyone know where I can get a layout all ready to sites? Mainly blogs

[darrensurrey]

It's only important if you're selling stuff.

[shadypro]

it is important , because people want to know who you are and what are you doing and why are you doing it .

[Vens]

It depends a lot on a type of website and what you try to represent. It could be extremely important or not at all.

It´s not really important if you are a small website. But when you do something in a real business way, you should have it somewhere on website.

[loudawg]

Thw about us page is very important if you are trying to sell something in a well established industry. Your clients have to put trust in you so an about page is a good place to show awards as well as tell everyone about the companies history.

[castbound]

The about us page is very important according to me because it gives relevant information to the visitor about the owner/company .

[Barros16]

I think it is really important because that way people get to know what is the website about and who are the people behind it

I'm stating a Wordpress site and I have seen a lot of good Wordpress themes for blogs. You should check them out! Most of the themes allow you to have a really nice looking "About Us" page as well.

Sounds intelligent, but tell me, how many times did you check the "about us" section on website? I guess once per 100 site?

[blair]

It may seem so simple but for me the about page is quite difficult to fill out. You have to be able to put in a small space the summary of what you really are about. Other people find it easy but for me that is such a struggle. That would suffice it to say that this page is very important.

IMO the about us area is one of the best areas a site has, and everyone must have one. It's simply the best area where new costumers/visitors can read and get to know what the site is all about and some helpfull contacts!
