Now that your content is organized, it is time to set up and manage your public profile. Your public profile acts as your main storefront for fans, industry professionals, and venues.
Important: All media displayed on your public profile is pulled directly from your My Content manager. Please ensure you have uploaded your audio, images, and albums there first before following the steps below.
Step 1: Getting Started & Profile Details
To begin customizing your profile, navigate to the sidebar menu on your dashboard and click Public Profile.
- In the first section, you can set your profile picture, primary genre, and bio.
- To make changes, click the pencil icon located at the top right of the section. A pop-up window will appear, allowing you to edit your details.
Step 2: Cover Image
Customize the header image of your profile by uploading your cover artwork.
- Upload your preferred banner image. Make sure to use the proper size: 400x400 px (up to 16 MB in file size).
Step 3: Your Public URL & View Mode
Set up your unique web address on ReverbNation and customize how visitors experience your profile:
- Handle Selection: Choose your custom ReverbNation handle (e.g.,
reverbnation.com/yourname). - Warning: Changing your handle will alter your profile URL, causing all previously shared links to break.
- View Mode: Toggle between Classic ReverbNation and Modern layouts to select your preferred profile design.
Step 4: External Links
Connect your social media channels and external sites to give fans easy access to your entire online presence.
- In the External Links section, add your social media profiles, streaming services, and website URLs to display them directly on your public profile.
Step 5: Videos
Showcase your music videos, live performances, and behind-the-scenes footage:
- Click the + Add video button.
- Paste a valid YouTube link into the field. Note: If linking to YouTube Shorts or videos within a playlist, you must reformat the link to the standard watch URL format:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID - Reordering: Grab the hatch marks next to a video to click and drag it to change the order in which videos appear on your profile.
Step 6: Select & Manage Your Songs
Choose which tracks visitors can listen to directly from your public profile:
- Click the + Add song button.
- Check the selection box on the far left of each track to select the songs you wish to feature. Note: Tracks must be uploaded in the My Content section first.
- Use the hatch marks on the left to drag and reorder the songs on your profile.
Step 7: Albums
Display your full projects, EPs, or albums on your profile:
- Click + Add album and choose from the albums you have previously compiled in the My Content tab.
- Reorder how your albums appear using the hatch marks to arrange them.
Step 8: Photos
Curate an image gallery for press, promoters, and fans:
- Click + Add photo to select images from your existing media library.
- Arrange the order of display using the hatch marks on the left of each image item.
Step 9: Events
Keep your fans informed about upcoming show dates, tours, and live events:
