[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]With this article, we\u2019ve come to the end of our Gravatar trilogy. If you\u2019ve read them all, you now know what Gravatars are, how to set one up, how to change the default WordPress Gravatar, and how to disable Gravatars completely on your WordPress website.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”28px”][vc_column_text]Gravatars can help you build a recognizable online identity, be it as an individual or as a brand. Our advice is not to create multiple Gravatar accounts, as some people choose to do, but rather set up one and stick to it. Of course, if you\u2019d like to keep your personal and business accounts apart, go ahead and separate the two. Other than that, it\u2019s for the best to use one account and one image only. This will make it much easier for people to remember you. Make the most of Gravatars and use them to establish yourself and your brand as trustworthy and authentic.
