Explore the 5 essential elements a keynote speaker’s website must have that are unique to their profession (compared to coaches, freelancers, or content creators):

Discover the essential things your website should have to attract clients, boost conversions, and grow your business effectively.

1. A Clear “Book Me” or “Request Info” CTA Above the Fold

Speakers are booked, not bought.
That means the primary call to action isn’t “buy now” or “subscribe,” but something like:

  • “Request Booking Info”
  • “Invite Me to Speak”
  • “Download My Speaker Kit”

This needs to be immediately visible and intuitive for event organisers and agencies.

2. Keynote Topics with Titles + Takeaways

Event organisers need to see exactly what you talk about and what the audience will get.
Each talk should have:

  • A compelling title
  • A short description
  • 2–3 audience takeaways (clear results or benefits)

Bonus: Add a section for custom talks or industry tailoring to show flexibility.

3. High-Quality Showreel or Speaking Video

This is non-negotiable for keynote speakers.
Your website must include a short, impactful video that shows:

  • You speaking on stage
  • Audience reactions
  • A glimpse of your presence, energy, and delivery style

If you don’t have one yet, the website should at least have a placeholder or short clips.

4. Logos of Past Events + Testimonials from Organisers

Social proof for speakers is not about client results. It’s about who trusted you to speak, and what they said about working with you.

  • Add event or company logos you’ve spoken for
  • Include organiser quotes (not just audience feedback)

This builds instant trust with decision-makers.

5. A Downloadable Media or Speaker Kit (PDF or Link)

Organisers need materials fast—especially under deadline.
Your speaker/media kit should include:

  • Your bio
  • Approved photos
  • Talk titles
  • Testimonials
  • Contact info
  • Links to social and video

Make it easy to find and download—this tiny detail makes you look more professional and easy to work with.

Your keynote might be unforgettable, but if your website doesn’t communicate that within seconds, you’re likely losing opportunities before they even reach your inbox.

Each of these five elements plays a specific role in helping event organisers, agencies, and media take you seriously, fast. When your online presence reflects your real-world authority, you make it easy for the right people to book you, share your work, and position you where you belong, on bigger stages, in front of bigger audiences.

If you’re transitioning from athlete to speaker, or simply feel your website no longer reflects where you are today, this is the moment to optimise it. A strong digital presence isn’t a vanity project, it’s a tool that works for you 24/7.

And the best part? You don’t have to figure it out alone.
