3 Featured Examples of Layout Design to Inspire Board Game Content Creators
2023-01-13
Portaly is undoubtedly a powerful link-in-bio tool with various graphical and multi-media features that can help you build a one-and-only mini-site of your own.
In this article, we selected three pages of board game content creators to show you how to make the most of all these features. We hope you will be inspired and start or upgrade your Portaly page right away!
Table of Contents
Show Me How To Win
Show Me How to Win is not here to teach you how to play board games, but to share with you strategies and tactics to help you beat the games.
They mainly focus on video content and strategy articles, and these are what they emphasize on their Portaly page as well.
On their Portaly page, you can see that they use the video carousel feature to embed some of their popular video content, such as the blocks of Popular Play Through and Latest Strategy Interview.
You only need to click on the video in which you are interested and can watch it on the page without jumping to YouTube. Portaly now supports videos from YouTube, Vimeo, Tiktok, and Twitch.
They also use the image-carousel-with-link feature to introduce some of their recent strategy articles and to direct people to read the content on their website.
Cardboard East
Cardboard East is a brand created by Jay, a gamer from America who now is based in Taipei. Like a lot of creators, Jay doesn’t have a website, so a link-in-bio page that can integrate everything about you or your brand is crucial.
At the beginning of Jay’s page, he shares a bit about himself which is a good way to create a connection between you and your audience.
Then he uses the video embed and image-with-a-link features to highlight what makes him special from other gamers, which is the content about Asian board games.
You can not only embed videos but also audio content as well. Jay embedded his interview on the podcast channel from PodBean. Portaly also supports audio from Spotify and Apple Podcasts, which is super convenient if you have a podcast channel.
Another thing to mention is that Portaly offers various image features for you to show your content visually, including image square, image horizontal, image double squares, and logo wall.
This allows you to create your own combination and increase the layers of your content.
As you can see from Jay’s page, he uses almost every image style to increase diversity and to exhibit his favorite Asian board games.
Board Game Blitz
Board Game Blitz is a bi-weekly podcast and video series about modern board games and card games hosted by Ambie and Crystal.
Their Portaly page is the best example of how to make the most of embedding and integration features.
You can see that they embedded their latest episode on Apple Podcasts and their videos on YouTube. The thing worth mentioning is that, unlike some other link-in-bio tools, Portaly can sync up the latest video automatically without charging you any additional penny.
Donation is another essential part for creators. Board Game Blitz uses Kofi to collect financial support, and they use the integration feature to create a Kofi block on their Portaly page so that their fans can support them directly.
Besides Kofi, you can also integrate Patreon, Buy me a coffee, etc into your Portaly page, and the list keeps growing!
Another highlight is that they create subpages to introduce their hosts. When you click on the photo of the host, for example, Ambie, you will jump to the subpage where you can read more about her. Click “Back” on top of the subpage then you can return to the homepage easily.
After all these examples, you might get inspired and want to start creating your bio page on Portaly right away.
