I think my problem with About pages isn't so much having personal information, because trust me, I know lots of people whose business IS their personality. Its more the droning details about how awesome they are. there's a difference between letting "you" shine through and being egotistical. But your point is well taken, everyone's needs are a little different. And it should certainly be based on what your clients want to know. -Kat Steven,

One place where disagreed was on the About page. You mentioned text overload and keeping the About page to two paragraphs. I think it's o to share more information depending on your business and who your market is. Awhile back I discovered that one of my selling points to clients was me. I tend to add some personal touches and my clients let me know they liked that. I realized one reason clients choose me is simply me and my personality. I made a conscious effort to add more of my personality into my last redesign, including a longer About page. That might not work for everyone, but it seems to work for me and I imagine it could work for others as well. How about adding 10 ways to ruin your services page?
