Critical Issues

Priority: Immediate Action

#1

No clear profession stated in the bio

While the bio mentions "Animation Artist", it lacks specificity about services offered or target audience.

#2

Missing external links

A Facebook link is mentioned but not provided, wasting potential traffic and engagement opportunities.

#3

No call-to-action (CTA) in the bio

Lack of direction leads to potential customers not knowing the next step to take.

Opportunities

Priority: Quick Wins

#1

Add a professional link to the bio

This could increase profile visits to your external platforms by an estimated 20-30%.

Include a CTA in the bio

Optimize hashtag use
