Make your works public. Making your works public maximizes the potential for integration of your ORCID into other systems and automatic updating of databases to attach your ORCID to your works.
Add at least some personal information. Adding some personal information, such as a brief bio, your education, and/or employment, can help others distinguish you from people with the same name, if they don't know your ORCID.
Add name variants. If you have published under other names or have variations of your name.
Use your ORCID when prompted in processes such as manuscript submission, grant proposals, and reporting.
Link your ORCID or include it in your profile for other services, including ResearcherID, figshare, and professional organizations.
Include your ORCID on conference posters to direct people to your works.
Consider including your ORCID on your webpage, in social media accounts, and in your email signature.
