The block types and what each is for

A Bio Page is an ordered list of blocks. Here is what is available and when to reach for it.

Blocks are added, reordered and deleted in the builder. Order in the builder is order on the page.

Block	Use it for
Link	The workhorse: a labelled button pointing anywhere, with its own click count.
Heading	A section title. Two levels, rendered as real h2 and h3 elements.
Text	A paragraph of context between groups of links. Plain text, not markup.
Image	A single picture, optionally wrapped in a link.
Gallery	A grid of up to twelve pictures for products, artwork or press shots.
Video	A hosted player URL or a direct video file.
YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X, Facebook, Spotify	One embed per platform, from a post or profile URL you paste.
Email	A button that opens the visitor’s mail app addressed to you.
Phone	A button that dials the number on the visitor’s device.
Divider	A rule or a gap — visual grouping without inventing a heading.
Countdown	A live counter to a release, a stream or a deadline.
Product	A merchandise card with an image, a price and a buy link.
Map	A map of a place you name.
Custom HTML	An escape hatch on Business. Sanitised server-side before it is stored.

There is no form block

Nothing on a Bio Page collects a submission from a visitor — no email capture, no contact form, no survey. The Email block hands them your address; what they do with it happens in their own mail app.

Custom HTML is sanitised, not trusted

Scripts, event handlers and dangerous URL schemes are stripped when the block is saved. That protects your visitors and every other page on the platform.

Theming a Bio Page

Colours, fonts, button shapes, animations and backgrounds, with a live preview and accessible defaults.

Layout: stack, grid or card.
Button style: solid, outline, soft or shadow.
Button animation: none, lift, pulse or shine — all of which collapse under prefers-reduced-motion.
Font: sans, serif, mono or rounded.
Background: a colour, a gradient or an image.

Check contrast before you publish

Pale text on a photographic background is the most common accessibility failure on pages like this. Aim for 4.5:1 between your text and whatever sits behind it; a plain colour behind a busy image usually fixes it.

Removing our branding from the footer of the page is a Pro and Business feature.

Serving a Bio Page from your own domain

Point a verified custom domain at a Bio Page so visitors never see our hostname.

Once a domain is verified you can attach it to a Bio Page. Visitors reach the page at your hostname, and the platform’s own dashboard and admin routes are not served on a customer domain at all — they return 404 there.

Your page also stays reachable at paddek.com/@username, so links already shared keep working.

Reading per-block analytics

Every link block counts its own clicks, so you can see which row of the page is doing the work.

Bio Page analytics separate page views from block clicks, and block clicks are attributed to the individual block. The practical use is ordering: if the fourth block outperforms the first, move it up and measure again.

Block clicks are recorded with the same privacy rules as everything else — no IP address is stored, and the visitor hash rotates daily.

The verified badge

What the badge means, and how it is granted.

The verified badge is granted by an operator after a review, not bought and not self-applied. It means the account behind the page has been checked against the identity it presents.

Ask for a review from [email protected] with the page username and something that ties the account to the identity — an email on the matching domain, or a post from the account you are claiming.

Impersonation is an abuse matter

If a page is impersonating you, report it to [email protected] rather than waiting on a badge. Impersonation is one of the categories the abuse queue acts on.
