Show HN: Create your personal website with just one click
brandme.ioI really like the idea of an online resume, but I'm hesitant to sign up without knowing what the end product might look like.
Are there example resumes I can look at to see what I'd be getting? If so, it might be a good idea to link to them on your site so that I can see if it floats my boat.
Thanks for your feedback! The landing page with a preview of a profile should be up any minute.
In the meantime, you could have a look at our profiles: https://brandme.io/about
That was quick work! And I guess that homepage scrolled all along, so now I feel like a right chump for not noticing there was more info below.
Anyway, another fun thing for you to look at if you're so inclined is that when I just tried to sign up there, I clicked allow on the linked in authentication screen, and now I'm seeing a 404 nginx page at https://brandme.io/martin-mcgirk
The profiles look amazingly swish though, and custom domains would be huge. Can't wait to get one and congrats on the launch!
Thanks, we will look into that. For some reason your profile was not set up all the way.
https://brandme.io/andreas-dittes here's my profile. But thats great feedback! We will definitely implement a sample site on the homepage.
Hi Martin,
I know the guys doing Brandme. You can see my profile here: https://brandme.io/shira-abel
I just made my own here: https://brandme.io/jonathan-stanton
Thanks, looks great. I guess I'll sign up and give it a go then
Nice idea!, While authenticating with linkedin https://brandme.io/oauth/cancel results in something went wrong error, I think it should redirect to proper page where one can try to authenticate again in case someone accidentally clicked on cancel instead of allow access.
I like the idea but could you include a sample showing a LinkedIn profile and the site it produced? I'm reluctant to login with my account to test this and give away my details.
Great idea - we are already working on a discovery feature: https://brandme.io/discovery and could feature one profile per day on the homepage as sample.
Thanks for your feedback. The landing page with a preview of a profile should be updated any minute.

Fantastically quick and simple. It requires a well-formed LinkedIn profile though, my bullet-point structure didn't look too pretty.
Thank you! We try to improve the app as we learn more about how people structure their profile. Or you can just edit it afterwards.
very cool. I like how you've optimised for a frictionless signup. The LinkedIn link is a smart way to leverage people's existing profiles. Is the connection between brandme.io and linkedin live? I.e. if I update my linkedin profile will my brandme site auto update?
Great work and well done for launching!
I would love to use this but I'd appreciate an option not having to import my LinkedIn.
I immediately thought of about.me. It'd be nice if the difference were made explicit.
Nice! I guess I need to work on my import from LinkedIn feature for json-resume-dynamic on npm. :)
Seems there is a bug on profile's github link.
have you ever thought about making it printer friendly as well?
Interesting though. I guess there are some cases for that. We will put it on the list. Thanks!
pretty easy setup, makes a neat online resume.
Thanks!
