Professional Practise

Website to-do List

Building and creating a website is part of my degree. Not only this but having a website will make it easier for protentional clients to see my work an decide whether they want me to create work for them.

Below are just a few of the websites I have looked at and researched how to create a professional website/portfolio.

Good Website Design

Bad Website Design

What to Improve On My Website

• Make it clear what my website is about and add a 'about me' page.
• ​Make a separate page for each of my projects so they're not all stuck together.  
• Make sure not to make it 'busy' and space everything out. For example: thumbnails of each project, space between images when doing my portfolio.
• Use colours what compliment each other and don't use bright and bold colours but also don't use very pale colours.
• Add a social media and contact section. INCLUDE: Instagram, email, phone number etc.​​
• Make sure to include and use a good layout that is easy to navigate while still making it interesting and fun
  
• Don't make it plain and boring.
  
• Make it clear what is personal work and what is work done for clients.
