Accessibility: screen readers can't read fancy fonts properly. They may spell out every symbol or skip the word, and in-app search may not find it. Keep your name, key info and links in normal text, and use styled letters only as decoration.

Frequently asked questions

What makes a good Instagram bio?

Say who you are and what you post in the first line, add one proof point (a release, a client, a city), then one call to action with a link. Short lines with an emoji at the start are easier to scan on a phone.

What should an artist put in their bio?

Your artist name, your sound (for example "Afro-fusion singer"), your latest release, where to stream it and a booking email. Update it every time you drop a new song.

What should a small business put in its bio?

What you sell, where you deliver, how to order (WhatsApp, DM or website) and your opening days. Many buyers decide in seconds, so make ordering obvious.

Can I copy a bio from this page?

Yes. The ideas are written for anyone to use and change. Make it yours by adding your own details so it doesn't look like everyone else's.

Can screen readers read fancy fonts?

Usually not well. The styled letters are separate Unicode symbols, so a screen reader may spell them out as "mathematical bold capital A", read them one by one, or skip them. Blind and low-vision followers can miss your message, and search inside apps may not find you. Keep your name, the key information and any links in normal text, and use fancy letters only for a word or two of decoration.

A simple bio formula

  • Line 1, who you are: “🎤 Afro-fusion singer from Ibadan”
  • Line 2, proof: “New EP ‘Sunset’ out now”
  • Line 3, what to do: “Stream 👇 | Bookings: email”

Change your bio whenever something changes: a new song, a sale, a new location. A fresh bio gives returning visitors a reason to tap your link. If you want to style your name, take your bio to the Instagram fonts page and style one line only.
