Thanks a lot for the advice.
About linking to the live versions of the website, the reason I did not do that was because, most of the work displayed are design only and were coded by the client themselves. Only a few of the designs were coded by Nathan (such as the VLC one), and not all the designs are online yet. Instead of linking to the live versions for some of them, I decided it was more important to maintain consistency and just link to larger versions for all of them.
- Staydecent 16y agoYou should tell viewers that. Talk about what you did for each project, your approach and the technology used; By having a portfolio consisting of just a bunch of images you run the risk of potential clients saying, "I want the VLC<or whatever> website." This has happened to me. Also, I would do a major rework the layout of your website. Nothing lines up (use a grid). There is extra black padding below the screenshots. At no point does the content area reach the left most edge of the navigation bar; either try left-aligning some of the content or shrink the navigation bar. And the most important: Design a home/landing page. While keeping your 3 pages(work, about, contact) create a fourth, the landing page, that sells your company like a mother fucker. And, in my experience, the most effective way of getting clients is locally. The majority of people visiting your site will NOT be looking for your services. But, if you want ANY hope of getting clients through your website, start SELLING. A list of several websites, and 1 screenshot each is NOT selling. You need copy.
