Link

me

Links to another page that represents the same person or identity as the current page.

Code examples

<link rel="me" href="https://social.example/@ada">

Connects a personal page to another profile for the same person.

<link rel="me" href="/authors/guest-writer">

Points to a different person. Use rel="author" when the target identifies the page's author.

01
Use it only for the same identity
A social profile, personal domain, or profile page is suitable only when it represents the same person as the current page.
02
Reciprocal links can prove control
Some IndieWeb tools verify identity by finding rel="me" links in both directions. The relation alone does not prove control of the target account.
