Add Your Name on IMDb in 10 Easy Steps | Read Now

Here’s how we explaining about the best way to add your name on IMDB. The Internet Movie Database or as it is popularly called IMDb is the biggest and most used internet website to know about movies. And in this post we are going to learn how to add a title or a credit of you or your movie To IMDB Website.

Why It’s needed to add the Name of Your Movie To IMDB?

Having a name on IMDb, not only gives you a sense of professionalism but also provides you with a little credibility in the industry. After all, the site’s SEO is going to pull up your name every time somebody googles it. That, now is a big plus.

4 Things You Consider Before Going To add Your Name or Your Movie Name to IMDB

But before you start adding your credit, you must consider the following points:

  1. First, and foremost, before adding any title, you must search if its already there on IMDb. Maybe somebody else beat you to it and your name is already there in the database. So before going on an adding spree, please make a thorough search (sometimes with a different spelling) to see whether your name or title isn’t already there.
  2. In order to edit IMDb database, you need to have an IMDb account. There are two types of IMDb accounts; (a) Regular, that comes for free, and (b) IMDb Pro, which is a premium account with premium features but with a premium price as well. This option (Premium IMDB Account) is mostly used by the agents of stars and studio executives. Editing can be done by a regular IMDB free account and so you can create an account for free.
  3. If you are adding a new title (a film or TV/Web series), you will need to fill up the New Title Submission Form from this link [New Title Submission Form (https://contribute.imdb.com/updates?update=title)]. The entries on the form are pretty much self explanatory and its the easiest form to fill on IMDb (trust us) !
  4. Remember, it will take some time for IMDb to review your submission, and so you might have to wait a couple of days if there is something you forgot to add.
