How to create User Profiles in ASP.NET

You have now been familiarized with the basic concept of personalization. In ASP.NET websites can be personalized by using the concept of user profiles and themes. Themes are used to enhance the look and feel of a Web page , but are incapable of storing and using the information of a specific user for personalization. In ASP.NET you can use the concept of user profiles to display information of a specific user for personalization. For example , if a user revisits a shopping website , the details of the items purchased in the either visit can also be displayed.
A user profile is a collection of various properties that describes the information you want to store for a specific user. You can store the properties associated with a user in a user profile. The Data that is stored in a profile can be accessed programmatically.

   <add name ="RollNo" defaultValue ="101" allowAnonymous ="true" />
   </properties>
   </profile>
