ITo create a Meet the Team page in WordPress, use a page builder or team plugin to add photos, names, and short bios for each member. This helps visitors see the real people behind your brand and builds instant trust and connection.

If your site doesn’t have one yet, you’re missing an easy way to make your business feel more personal. The good news is you can build a complete team page in about 20 minutes without touching any code.

In this guide, I’ll walk you through how to create a professional Meet the Team page step by step, so your website feels more human and your visitors know exactly who’s behind it.

Quick Steps:

Why Add a Meet the Team Page in WordPress?

In my experience, a strong team page gives any business a real human touch. When visitors see the people behind your brand, it turns your company from a logo into a group of trusted experts. I’ve seen this simple change make a big difference in how people connect with a website.

From what I’ve observed, adding authentic team photos can increase trust and conversion rates by up to 30%. In B2B especially, 88% of buyers say brand trust is a top factor when choosing who to work with. A clear staff page doesn’t just make your business feel approachable, it improves engagement by keeping visitors on your site longer.

What a Meet the Team Page Can Improve:

  • Lower bounce rates when visitors explore staff bios
  • Higher time-on-page as stories and photos keep people engaged
  • More demo or contact clicks because faces build credibility

When visitors can see your team, they’re more likely to trust your brand, believe in your expertise, and take the next step.

What Should You Include on a Meet the Team Page?

To create an effective team page, I always recommend including these core elements. Each one helps your visitors get to know your people, understand their roles, and connect with your brand on a personal level.

  • Photos: A clear headshot or fun team photo
    • Use a 1:1 square ratio (400×400px or larger) for consistency
    • Save photos as .jpg or .png depending on transparency needs
    • Add descriptive alt text like “Headshot of [First Name Last Name], [Job Title]”
  • Names & Job Titles: Make it easy to recognize each team member
    • Keep titles consistent (for example, always write “Marketing Manager,” not “Mgr. of Marketing”)
    • Limit name and title to two lines max for clarity
  • Short Bios: A few sentences about each person’s role and expertise
    • Try a simple format: “[Name] is our [Role] who [impact statement]. With [# years] in [field], they [unique skill or fun fact].”
    • Keep bios around 40–60 words so they’re easy to scan
  • Social Links: Include LinkedIn or other professional profiles
    • Use matching icon styles for a polished look
    • Always open links in a new tab
  • Fun Facts: Add personality with hobbies or quotes
    • Keep them short and light (one line each)
    • Use a consistent tone that fits your brand voice

Easiest Way to Create a Meet the Team Page in WordPress

There are a few ways to create a team page in WordPress. You could use the built-in block editor, try a team member plugin, or even hand-code one if you’re comfortable with HTML and CSS. But for most people, those options can take time and trial and error.

In my experience, the easiest and most flexible option is using a drag-and-drop page builder like SeedProd.

If you need help with this, you can see our instructions on installing the SeedProd plugin. This guide will also show you how to activate your SeedProd license to unlock your premium features.

Step 2. Create a New WordPress Page

After installing SeedProd, navigate to Pages » All Pages from your WordPress dashboard and click “Add New Page”.

In the WordPress editor, you’ll see an “Edit with SeedProd” button, so go ahead and click this.

Edit WordPress page with SeedProd

Now you’ll have the option to choose from one of SeedProd’s pre-made landing page templates. They come with designs for various industries and goals, such as coming soon, sales, squeeze, and more. I’ve used these templates for several projects, and they’re a real time-saver.

SeedProd Landing Page templates

I recommend finding a template that’s close to what you have in mind for your team page. You can always customize it later using the drag-and-drop builder. Personally, I like to start with a simple template and then add my own flair.

To select the template, hover over it and click the checkmark icon.

For this tutorial, I’ve chosen the wealth sales page template, but feel free to pick any template that catches your eye. It only takes a few edits to make it feel like your own.

The template will open in SeedProd’s drag-and-drop builder, with a live preview on the right and blocks, sections, and settings on the left.

This is where you can edit your team page and customize its design. You can see these tutorials to understand how the page builder works:

For this guide, I’ve changed the text to make the page look more like a team member page. I also deleted some blocks to make room for the team profiles.

Step 3. Add the Team Members Block

To add the team members section in WordPress, select the ‘Column’ block from the left sidebar. This allows you to show multiple team members in one place. Simply drag and drop the block to wherever it looks best on the page.

Choose the SeedProd column block

Now, you can select a column layout. This will depend on how many team members you want to show on the page. I usually prefer a three-column layout for smaller teams, but you can experiment and see what looks best for your team.

💡 Tips for Laying Out Your Team Section

Here are two common styles I use when building a WordPress team members page, depending on team size.

Layout StyleBest For
Grid LayoutSmall teams where everyone gets equal space
Card LayoutLarger teams or when you want to highlight key members

Next, drag and drop the “Team Member” block into each column. This is where you’ll add the details about your team members.

Drag the team member block into a column

If one column isn’t enough to show all your team members, you can copy and paste it.

Just hover over the column block until it has a blue outline. Then, click the ‘Duplicate Row’ button.

Duplicating a row in SeedProd

You’ll automatically see the duplicated row below the original one, where you can add information for each team member.

Start by adding a photo for each team member. Click a Team Member block and select ‘Use Your Own Image’ in the block settings sidebar.

Adding an image to the SeedProd team member block

This opens the WordPress media library where you can pick an image or upload one from your computer.

Adding an image from the media library to your meet the team page

After adding the image, you can customize more image settings. For example, you can add image alt text, customize the width, or change the image position. I usually like to center the images for a balanced look.

adding image alt text to team member block

When you scroll down in the block settings, you can change the default name, heading tag and name alignment. It’s also possible to change how the name appears depending on whether the meet the team page is viewed on mobile, desktop, or tablet.

Adding the team member name

Now let’s look at the designation and description, which is your team member’s job title and important information.

Similar to the name settings, you can change the layout based on where the page is being viewed from.

Team member designation and description

Further down, you’ll see settings to customize the Team Member block’s design.

For instance, you can set the rounded borders of the image and add a separator between the image and description.

Additionally, you can add team members social media information. By default, SeedProd includes social icons for Facebook and Twitter, but you can also insert add more that are relevant to your business, like LinkedIn.

Just click ‘+ Add New Item.’

Adding more social icons to the team member block

Here, you’ll see a list of settings to customize the social icon. Simply click the image symbol to change it.

Change the social icon image

This opens the Icon Library. Here, you can search for the social media platform you want and click the ‘+’ button to use it.

Choosing the linkedin logo for social icons

Once you’ve done that, you can add the social media title and the person’s social link. It’s also just as easy to change the icon’s colors.

Setting social icon color and link

At this stage, you can change the social icon’s sizing, alignment, colors, and shape.

Customize the social icon design

If you want to make further customizations, switch to the ‘Advanced’ tab.

Here you’ll find more settings to change the block’s design, such as customizing the padding and margins, adding a shadow effect, enabling CSS animations, and more.

Now all you need to do is repeat these steps for the rest of your team members.

Step 4. Publish Your WordPress Team Members Page

When you are satisfied with the final look and feel of your simple meet the team page, simply click the ‘Save’ button to save your progress.

Finally, to make your team member page live on your business website, click on the ‘Publish’ button.

Save and publish your team member page

Your new WordPress theme is live on your website. You can now visit your team member page to see how it looks.

Here is the team member showcase I made on my test website:

Seeing the final page come together is always satisfying. It’s a small detail that makes your site feel more personal and complete.

Other Ways to Create a Meet the Team Page in WordPress

If you prefer not to use a page builder, you can still follow these methods to create a team members page in WordPress step-by-step using built-in tools.

To help you decide which method fits your workflow, here’s a quick comparison of your options.

MethodEase of UseCustomizationBest For
SeedProd Page Builder✅ Drag-and-drop visual editorHigh — templates, team blocks, layout controlsBeginners who want fast, professional results
Block Editor (Gutenberg)⚠️ Moderate — manual setupBasic — columns, text, image blocksUsers comfortable editing WordPress pages
HTML & CSS❌ Requires codingFull — complete design controlAdvanced users or developers

1. Default WordPress Block Editor (Gutenberg)

You can build a simple team page using the regular Block Editor:

  • Add an “Image” block for each team member photo.
  • Use “Heading” or “Paragraph” blocks for names, roles, and bios.
  • Arrange them in columns with the “Columns” block for a grid layout.
  • Optionally add social links with “Buttons” or “Social Icons” blocks.

This method is completely free and beginner-friendly, but does take more manual effort if you want advanced layouts or larger teams.

2. Coding with HTML & CSS

For full control, you can hand-code your own team section:

  • Insert an HTML block with your custom markup and style it via CSS.
  • This allows unique layouts, animations, or branding, but requires web development experience.

Tip: For most users, a visual page builder or plugin will save time and provide a more polished finish, especially as your team grows.

Creative Team Page Examples

Looking for inspiration? These standout team pages from real companies show different ways to display staff bios, headshots, and company culture. They each have a unique approach, and I hope they spark some ideas for your own team page.

1. Awesome Motive: Subtle Team Page Integration

Awesome Motive meet the team page example

I really like how Awesome Motive introduces its global team directly on the homepage and About page. Instead of creating a separate team section, they blend short staff introductions and group photos into the main content. This subtle approach feels natural and reinforces their culture of collaboration across a distributed company.

It’s a simple layout with friendly visuals, but it speaks volumes about the people behind the products. Visitors instantly see the scale of the team and their shared mission — no extra clicks required.

Key Takeaway:

  • Integrating team members into core pages like the homepage or About page showcases company culture and global reach without needing a standalone team page.

2. Digital Marmalade: Interactive Hover Bios

Digital Marmalade meet the team page example

Digital Marmalade’s team page is one of the most engaging I’ve seen. Each staff photo flips on hover to reveal a fun, tabbed bio with sections for their professional role, personal interests, and even their “superhero” traits. It’s playful yet polished, showing off the agency’s creativity without overwhelming visitors.

What stands out to me is how this design balances professionalism with personality. The interactivity keeps visitors curious and encourages them to spend more time exploring each profile.

Key Takeaway:

  • Using hover or animation effects adds interactivity and reveals deeper bios without cluttering the layout, keeping users engaged longer.

3. Etsy: Team Highlights with Hover Effects

Etsy Meet the team page example

Etsy’s team page focuses on both leadership and the wider company team. The top section features key leaders in a clean grid, each with a hover effect that highlights their photo and title. Clicking any image opens a detailed profile page, where you can learn more about each person’s background and work.

Further down, Etsy showcases a massive collage of team photos. Each picture subtly lights up on hover, giving a lively, community-driven feel. It’s a simple design choice, but it captures the scale and spirit of Etsy’s people-centered brand.

Key Takeaway:

  • A large visual grid of real employee photos, paired with hover highlights, builds a sense of community and scale while reinforcing transparency and trust.

4. Atlassian: Two-Tiered Team Presentation

Atlassian meet the team page example

Atlassian organizes its team page into two clear sections: one for leadership and another for the board of directors. Each leadership photo includes a hover effect that opens a popup with more information and social media links. The board section features smaller images, names, titles, and direct links to their LinkedIn or Twitter profiles.

I like how this design keeps everything accessible without overwhelming visitors. It gives equal visibility to leadership and the board, while maintaining a clean layout and consistent brand feel.

Key Takeaway:

  • Dividing leadership and board members into separate sections provides clarity, improves navigation, and lets you present different levels of detail for each group.

5. Humaan: Animated GIFs and Quirky Profiles

Humaan meet the team page example

Humaan’s team page is full of personality. Each profile features an animated GIF instead of a static photo, giving every team member a playful, lifelike presence. The layout is simple but bold, with bright visuals and short, witty bios that capture the agency’s creative spirit.

What I love most about this design is how it instantly communicates who they are — fun, imaginative, and approachable. The animations make visitors feel like they’re meeting real people, not just reading job titles on a page.

Key Takeaway:

  • Using animated GIFs and a humorous tone showcases a creative brand personality, helping your company stand out and feel relatable to visitors.
