Benefits Of Turning Your User Profile Into A Business Profile

There are a few benefits you’ll see if you turn your user profile into a business profile. For example…

  • Multiple users can be added as administrators, giving your business the ability to manage content teams under one profile.
  • You will be permitted to use the name of your business for the profile and when you participate in conversations on Quora. This is especially beneficial for businesses using Promoted Answers for Quora Ads.
  • Your account will be designated as a business with a business icon on the profile image.
  • You will be able to define and display industry topics that your business is involved in on your profile page.
  • And you will be able to define a location for your business visible on the profile page.

And this is all important because Quora uses a lot of this information to give your account authority and to rank your Quora answers.

So, ideally, you should turn your profile into a business account.

But, how do you do it?

How To Convert A User Profile Into A Business Profile

The process is actually pretty simple.

All you have to do is contact business-help@quora.com with the URL of the User Profile you wish to convert into a Business Profile.

Also, provide them with the URL of the user profile you wish to have as an administrator and the reason you need to convert your Quora profile.

After that, Quora will revise your application and let you know how to proceed.

How To Convert A Business Profile Back To A User Profile

If you already have a business profile but you want to turn it back into a user profile, the process is very similar to the one above.

What you have to do is contact business-help@quora.com with the URL of the Business Profile you wish to convert back to a user profile and the reason you need to convert back to a user profile.

After that, Quora will revise your application and let you know if they need something else on your end.

Now, something very important:

Sometimes when we contact Quora, they take action on what we need from them but they don’t actually reply back saying it’s already done.

This actually happened to us pretty recently when we contacted them about some collapsed content.

So, if you don’t hear back from them, check to see if they already turned your account back. It’s possible they’ve already done it and you don’t even know.

My Final Thoughts

As you can see, the process is very straightforward so you shouldn’t have any issues turning your user profile into a business profile.

Just follow the instructions outlined above and you’ll be fine.
