Key Points

• Portfolio website homepage formatting.

• Being more intentional about what you are asking visitors to your portfolio website to do (i.e., get in touch to work together, etc.).

• Improving your project case studies.

• Adding personality to your portfolio website.

To Think On

• Do you need to have a featured work section slightly above the grid of all of your projects?

• Who do you want to work with and what do you want them to do when they visit your portfolio website?

• Does the current visual presentation of your portfolio website reflect your personality and opinion of design?

Actionable

• Add more intentional and direct messaging and call-to-actions throughout your portfolio website.

• Consider reorganizing some of your case studies according to the size of the deliverables (i.e., branding, website design, printed materials, etc.).

• Organize your collection of projects on your homepage according to favorite to least favorite. When it was completed isn't as important as the quality of the work.
