Preparing Content for a Website Portfolio

The work you choose to present in your portfolio is a key decision. Once you have determined how to present and categorize your design, choose the best pieces to include. “Less is more” can certainly come into play here, as potential employers and clients may be looking at many portfolios and not spending much time on each. Each work should be something you are proud of, whether it is a school project or a commercial piece. Even if you don’t have a lot to include at the start, you can expand your portfolio at any time.
