Get Discovered With a Knockout Portfolio (Skillshare)

Offered by Skillshare,

Over the last couple of years, having an online portfolio has gone from a nice-to-have to a must-have for any creative professional — and Behance is leading the charge to make it possible. In this class, we’ll walk through their list of best practices on how to make a good portfolio great and how to get you and your work discovered in the creative communities you care about. You'll leave this short class with a list of tips on getting an online footprint that shows off who you are, tells the world what you can do, and gets you found.

Share an effective creative portfolio website.
Show yourself off! Share your own creative portfolio website or a portfolio website that inspires you. It should communicate who the artist is, it should be easy to navigate with a clear contact and about page, and the site should display a carefully selected body of work.
If you're just getting started with building your presence online, check out our Creatives to Follow page or ProSite Example Gallery for some of our favorite users!
If you already have a portfolio website, use tips from the course to make a few key optimizations that'll help you get found. Then share your portfolio: briefly describe what you do as well as the thought process behind how you structured and designed your site.
