To change your profile description or web links, sign in to your account and go to your profile's edit page. Your profile edit page can be accessed through the Edit button below your header image:

You can add whatever you like in the profile description field to tell your listeners who you are, include a brief biography or introduction, links and other relevant information.

Descriptions have a limit of 4,000 characters and cannot include HTML formatting. You’ll still be able to add links to descriptions, but they will display as full URLs rather than displaying text that links.

Here you can also fill out your name and country, so your fans know where you are based.
