When I started GitHub, my profile looks like most of the profiles on GitHub -without personalization.

When someone visits your profile, they should understand who you are and what you do.

Without that, your profile will be a needle in the haystack. It's hard to distinguish your profile.

To sum it up, it's nice to have a neatly organized profile on GitHub.

Here's how my GitHub profile looks. If you want something similar, follow the guidelines.
