Your Profile is the foundation of your Fanaura account. Everything here shapes how you appear to fans, how your smart links look, and how your outbound messages are branded. Take a few minutes to get this right — it pays off every time a fan interacts with your content.

​
How to Get Here

  1. Click Settings (gear icon) in the left sidebar.
  2. You will land on the Profile tab by default.
These fields capture your real, legal name:
  • First Name: Your legal first name.
  • Last Name: Your legal last name.
This information is used for billing, invoicing, and any legal documentation. Fans never see this — it stays behind the scenes.
Tip: If you are a band or group, use the primary account holder’s legal name here. Your public-facing name is set separately in the Display Name field.

​
Display Name

This is the name fans see. It appears on:
  • Your smart link pages
  • Your public fan page
  • Email sender names (if not overridden)
  • Anywhere Fanaura shows your identity to the public
Examples: “Billie Eilish”, “The 1975”, “DJ Shadow”, “Laufey” You can change your display name at any time. Updates take effect immediately across all your active smart links and public pages.

​
Business Name

An optional field for your business entity name. If you operate under an LLC, corporation, or DBA, enter it here. This is used for:
  • Billing and invoicing
  • Business-related documentation
Leave this blank if you operate as an individual artist.

​
Business Address

Your business mailing address. Used for:
  • Billing purposes
  • Tax documentation
  • Legal correspondence
This address is never shown publicly to fans.

​
Contact Email and Phone

  • Contact Email: The email address where Fanaura sends account notifications, billing receipts, and system alerts. This is your admin email, not the email fans see.
  • Contact Phone: Your admin phone number for account recovery and urgent notifications.
Important: This is different from your “Default From Email” (which fans see when they receive your marketing emails). Keep your admin contact info up to date for account security.

​
URL Slug

Your URL slug creates your custom artist URL: 
fan.fanaura.com/your-slug
Rules for your slug:
  • Must be unique across all Fanaura artists
  • Can only contain lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens
  • No spaces or special characters
  • Keep it short and memorable
Examples:
  • fan.fanaura.com/billie
  • fan.fanaura.com/the-1975
  • fan.fanaura.com/dj-shadow
When you type a slug, Fanaura checks in real time whether it is available. You will see a green checkmark if it is free or a red warning if it is already taken.
Tip: Use the same handle you use on Instagram or Spotify so fans recognize you immediately.

​
Profile Image / Avatar

Upload your artist photo or logo. This image appears on:
  • Your smart link pages
  • Your public fan page
  • The Fanaura dashboard (so your team recognizes the workspace)
Recommended: Square image, at least 400x400 pixels. JPG or PNG format. Click the image area to upload a new photo. You can change this at any time.

​
Bio / Description

Write a short bio that tells fans who you are. This text appears on your public fan page when the “Publish bio on public fan page” toggle is turned on. Best practices for your bio:
  • Keep it under 300 words
  • Write in third person or first person, whichever feels natural
  • Mention your genre, recent releases, or upcoming projects
  • Include a personal touch — fans connect with authenticity
“Publish bio on public fan page” toggle: Turn this on to display your bio on your public-facing fan page at fan.fanaura.com/your-slug. Turn it off to keep the bio private (it will still be stored in your settings for later use).

​
Website URLs

  • Artist Website: Your main website (e.g., https://www.yourartistname.com)
  • Tour Website: A dedicated tour page if you have one (e.g., https://www.yourartistname.com/tour)
These URLs can be displayed on your public fan page and are useful for cross-linking.

​
Timezone

Your account timezone affects several critical features:
  • Delay nodes in flows: When a delay says “wait until 9 AM,” it means 9 AM in your timezone.
  • Scheduled blasts: Send times are calculated in your timezone.
  • Time-based conditions: “If it’s between 6 PM and 10 PM” checks your timezone.
  • Activity logs: Timestamps display in your timezone.
How to set it:
  1. Click the timezone dropdown.
  2. Search for your city or timezone name (e.g., “America/Nashville”, “Europe/London”, “Asia/Tokyo”).
  3. Select your timezone.
Important: If you tour frequently and change time zones, pick the timezone where most of your fans are located, or where your team operates from. You do not need to update this every time you travel.

​
Default From Name

This is the name that appears in the “From” field when fans receive your marketing emails. Examples:
  • “Laufey” — simple and clean
  • “Team Laufey” — if your team sends on your behalf
  • “Laufey Music” — adds a professional touch
Fans are more likely to open emails when the sender name is recognizable. Use the name your fans know you by.

​
Default From Email

The email address that appears as the sender on your outbound emails. This should be an email address on a domain you control, like:
  • hello@yourdomain.com
  • fans@yourdomain.com
  • yourname@yourdomain.com
Note: Email deliverability improves when your from email uses a verified, authenticated domain. Talk to your team about setting up SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records if you haven’t already.

​
Saving Changes

After making changes to any field on the Profile page:
  1. Click the Save button at the bottom of the page.
  2. You will see a success confirmation.
  3. Changes take effect immediately across all your smart links and public pages.

​
Best Practices

  • Fill out everything: A complete profile looks professional and builds trust with fans. Incomplete profiles with missing images or generic names feel impersonal.
  • Use a real photo: Fans connect with faces. A high-quality artist photo outperforms a logo in almost every case.
  • Keep your slug short: fan.fanaura.com/yourname is much easier to share than fan.fanaura.com/the-official-artist-name-2026.
  • Set timezone once: Pick it based on where your fans or team are, then leave it alone. Changing it mid-campaign can cause confusion with scheduled sends.
  • Update your bio seasonally: When you release new music, update your bio to mention it. Fans landing on your page want to see what is current.
