Videographer profile page in Denmark: Websta setup guide

What goes on your Websta profile page

Your profile is a single page that works like a simple website. It should show who you are, what you do, and how people can contact you or book time with you. Start with a clear description of the video work you do: corporate videos, events, social media content, interviews, weddings, product shoots, or whatever fits your skill set. Be specific about what you offer rather than general.

Add photos or video samples of your work. These matter far more than text. Upload examples that show your actual output - edited videos or stills from projects you have completed. People want to see the quality and style of your work before they contact you.

List the services you provide. Each service should have a name, a short description of what it includes, and whether clients book a fixed time slot or request a quote. For videography, some services might be booked as fixed appointments (like a one-hour consultation or a preset package), while others work better as quote requests where you discuss the scope with each client first.

Include a contact form and, if you want to let clients book time directly, set up online booking for services where the duration and scope are clear. For custom video work, a quote request form often works better than fixed booking.

Languages to publish in

Publish your profile in Danish. Most clients searching for videographers in Denmark will search in Danish. If you speak English well and want to attract clients from outside Denmark or English-speaking expats, add an English version of your key information - profile description, service names, and how to contact you. Do not spread yourself thin with many languages; Danish and English cover the main ground.

How people search for videographers in Denmark

On Websta, people nearby search by service type and location. A search for videography in Denmark will show providers across the country. Clients will filter by the type of video work they need - wedding films, corporate videos, social media content, etc. Your service titles and description should match what clients type into the search box.

People also post tasks on the marketplace, describing what they need and inviting providers to make offers. This works well for videography because each project is different. A client might post that they need a 3-minute corporate video for their website, and you can review the details and decide if you want to quote on it.

Business registration in Denmark

Before you advertise your services, you need to be registered as a business in Denmark. If you work as a sole trader (enkeltmandsforetagende), you register with the Danish Business Authority (Erhvervsstyrelsen). Check the current requirements and registration process on their website or contact them directly, as rules may change.

You must have a business registration number (CVR-nummer) if you operate as a business, even if it is just you working alone. This number appears on invoices and is how clients and the authorities identify your business.

Keep records of your income and expenses, and pay the correct taxes. Denmark has a self-employed tax rate and you may need to register for VAT depending on your turnover. Speak to a Danish accountant or the tax authority (SKAT) to understand your obligations.

Payment and invoicing setup

On Websta, clients pay by card when they book or after you complete a project. The money goes to your own bank account through Stripe, which handles the payment processing. You set your own prices for each service and quote.

When you complete a job, send an invoice to the client if that is how you work, or let the platform handle the payment record. Keep track of all payments for your tax records.

What to write in your first hour

Start with a short profile description - two or three sentences about who you are and what kind of video work you do. Example: 'I make corporate videos and social media content for small businesses and startups in Denmark. I work with you from concept to final edit.' This is enough to begin.

Add one or two services with names and short descriptions. If you do event filming, call it 'Event video production' and write what it includes (length, number of cameras, turnaround time for edit, etc.). If you do consultations before taking on a project, create a 'Video consultation' service as a fixed 30-minute or one-hour booking slot.

Upload at least three examples of your work. These do not need to be professional productions - they should just show what you can do.

Write a simple contact message in the contact form field so clients know how to reach you with questions. Something like 'Contact me with your project details and I will get back to you within 24 hours' is enough.

Do not spend time perfecting everything. Get your profile live so people can find you, then improve it over time as you get feedback from clients.

Growing your profile

After you go live, add more examples of your work and update your services as you take on different types of projects. If a client books you through Websta, you can ask them to give feedback, which helps other clients see what working with you is like.

Watch which types of searches lead people to your profile - if you see a lot of searches for wedding videography but none for corporate work, consider whether you want to shift your focus or add wedding services to your offering.
