This is part of the How to series from Hacker Noon support.
The Hacker Noon profile is your primary real estate. It has your personal bio, displays your social accounts of choice, as well as links to all your Hacker Noon stories (including the ones previously published with Medium).
But most importantly, your customizable, prominently placed profile Call To Action (a nice new Hacker Noon 2.0 feature) can be used to drive your own newsletter subscribers, social media presence, a company/organization you believe in, or anything else.
