Linking Your Social Media Profiles

Quick Answer

Add links to your professional social media profiles so visitors can connect with you on LinkedIn, Facebook, X (Twitter), YouTube, Instagram, and Yelp. Social media links appear as clickable icons on your listing and are visible to all visitors—no login required.

Overview

Social media links help visitors verify your credibility, see your professional activity, and connect with you on their preferred platform. You don't need to fill in all six—only add platforms where you have an active professional presence.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Access Social Media Section

  1. Log into your Heritage Web dashboard

  2. Click My Profile in the left navigation

  3. Scroll to the Social Media section

  4. Click to expand it

Step 2: Add Your Profile Links

Enter the full URL for each platform you want to display:

Platform

URL Format

LinkedIn

https://www.linkedin.com/in/yourprofile

Facebook

https://www.facebook.com/yourpage

X (Twitter)

https://x.com/yourhandle

YouTube

https://www.youtube.com/@yourchannel

Instagram

https://www.instagram.com/yourhandle

Yelp

Step 3: Save Changes

  1. Review your links for accuracy

  2. Click Publish Draft at the top of the page

  3. Icons appear on your listing after approval

Important Notes

  • Only filled fields display—empty fields are hidden

  • Links are always visible to all visitors (not behind login wall)

  • Use professional accounts—personal accounts with private content may reflect poorly

  • This section is always visible—there's no toggle to hide it

FAQs

Do I need to fill in all six platforms? No. Only add platforms where you have an active, professional presence. Empty fields simply don't appear on your listing.

Can I add other social platforms like TikTok? Currently, only the six listed platforms are supported. For others, consider adding links in your Bio or Website field.

Should I link my personal or business page? For Profile listings, link to your professional accounts. Business pages (Facebook, LinkedIn Company Page) work best for Organization listings.

Why is Yelp included? Yelp reviews provide social proof for service businesses. If you have positive Yelp reviews, linking to your business page can build trust.
