Which one is the right call
Stay with about.me if
- A short introduction and a way to reach you is genuinely the whole requirement.
- The page is written once and left alone.
- You are not trying to find out what visitors do after they land.
Move to Nameplate if
- The page needs to outgrow a single screen as the work accumulates.
- You want to publish projects, files, and embedded media rather than describe them.
- You want to see which parts of the page people actually click.
What switching involves
There is nothing to disconnect: build the Nameplate profile on its free nameplate.cc address, publish it, and update the link wherever you have shared the old one. Keeping both live for a while costs nothing.

- Starter

Questions people ask before moving
Is a digital business card the same thing as this page?
It is part of it. Every published profile also serves a vCard at its own address, so saving it drops your name, title, email, and a link back to the page straight into someone's contacts. QR codes are built in as well, and a QR can point at either the vCard or the page itself.
Can I use my own domain?
Yes, on the Pro plan. Free and Starter profiles publish on a nameplate.cc address.
What if I want to take the page down?
Unpublishing is a single toggle and takes the public page offline immediately, including the vCard endpoint. Your content stays in the editor.
