If you are looking for a way to consolidate your other sites and social profiles [see the sample pages here*] then please choose one of many Name.ly themes and then configure it accordingly. The following three are the most popular among our users:
- LiveTweets (a Twitter home page with links etc) [click here to preview*]
- Name.ly/Cards (styled business cards) [click here to preview*]

Few more useful hints and tips you might wish to discover:
- Print a t-shirt or a mug* with your new jingling web address.
- Tell your friends about your new fancy address on your other sites, or by sending them a personal invitation.
- Insert your new site’s link into your e-mail signature [tell me how*]: impress your friends with your brand new elegant Internet address in the e-mail footer and in this way update them on the latest news around you each time you press the “send” button.
- If you decide to run a blog, remember that you can upload multiple pictures into galleries with just few clicks. Just create a new post and then press on “Add media” star-icons above the formatting menu.
- By the way, you can edit, delete, or make this introductory post private. Or add another one.
