Showcase your works online


Creating a visually-captivating portfolio is a tough task and it becomes tougher when you don’t have any technical expertise to make it. Many a time, a job applicant does not know how to design, what to write in the portfolios and what appearance will suit it.

In times when people search for jobs on the Internet and apply for them online, there are many options available on the Web to help them make an attractive portfolio.

Whether you are an artist, an engineer, a photographer, a model or a journalist you can showcase your works on an online shelf provided by these sites. Such sites come with loaded features which are different for different professionals. Here are some websites on which applicants can make their portfolios online.

Foliohd is a website where one can create his/her portfolio and upload work in the form of text, picture and video. One can upload up to 36 images in the free account and for utilising other features one has to upgrade the account to a premium one.
Carbonmade.com is another website that has several layouts to suit the needs of photographers, writers, designers, models etc.

Viewbook and Pixpa are websites that are specially designed for photographers, visual artists and architects. They can add their work in several galleries. The charges range from 200 to 1,600 a month depending on the services users chose. However one can try the site for one month for free. 

These sites also provide options to change the layout and designs of web portfolios and users can connect these portfolios to their own domain name. These sites give special discounts to students.

Cuttings.me and pressfolios.com are websites that are exclusively designed for journalists and writers. They can not only create portfolios but also manage the clippings and online links of their articles. At present, pressfolios is in its beta stage and one can use the site only when invited by the website administrator.

There are sites such as flavors.me to unify one’s web presence. Users can link their work and social presence on many sites onto one web page.
