Users in India can create virtual visiting cards on Google Search

Google on Tuesday launched a new feature which allows users in India to create ‘People Cards’, which are like virtual visiting cards, making it easier for them to build an online presence and discover others.

The India-first feature, which has been in testing for a couple of years, will allow users to create a virtual visiting card on Google Search, and highlight their existing website or social profiles and information that they would like others to know, Google Search Product Manager Lauren Clark said.

“The new feature is aimed at helping the millions of individuals, influencers, entrepreneurs, prospective employees, self-employed people, freelancers, or anyone else out there who wants to be discovered and help the world find them. Starting today, users across India can discover the People Cards on their mobile phones, in English,” she said.
