Choose the Address of Any Page. Be /about, Not /profile

On the paid plans, every page can have an address you choose rather than the one the page type comes with.

Why the default addresses existed

Each page type had a fixed address derived from what it was internally. Your biography lived at /profile because the underlying record is a profile. Your reel lived at /video.

Those are accurate and they are not what anybody would choose. Nobody says "look at my profile page", they say "look at my about page", and the address should match the words people use.

Where it actually matters

Addresses you say out loud. If you tell somebody to look at yourname.com/reel, that should work. Reading out "slash video" and hoping is worse.

Printed material. A card or a program with a specific page on it, which cannot be changed later. Related: QR business cards.

Search. A small effect, but a page at /voice-over-demos is marginally clearer to a search engine than the same page at /audio, and the address appears in the result.

Rules and guard rails

Changing an address later

The old one keeps working and redirects, permanently. Any link already out in the world does not break, and search engines transfer what the old address had earned.

Even so, change addresses rarely. Every change costs a little and there is no benefit to churning them.

A short list worth setting

/about, /reel, /photos, /resume, /contact. Five words, all of them what people would guess, and guessable addresses genuinely get typed.
