Great looking design. However, instead of outsourcing my portfolio I just got a domain and added my own stuff. check out http://appsonify.com http://appsonify.com, curious to know some actionable steps I can take to improve it. The whole thing is hosted on Amazon S3 bucket and it cost me like 50 cents in traffic so far. No need to run a static http server, just point your domain through route 53 and point it to amazon bucket.
- tst 12y agoI can give you some feedback if you want. In the past I have searched freelancers in the web, app and design space. For each position I maybe look at ~200 freelancers. That means a freelancer is out on average in maybe 10 - 20 seconds. What I like: * You have a website * Design is very easy and clean * You show your references * There's an e-mail address What could be better: * Your picture. If you don't want to show your face just leave it out. Otherwise take a nice picture and put it up without any effects / filters * I don't know what you did on each of your projects. Normally, I assume that you either did the whole site or a minimal part. Stuff that depends (if you mainly sell to technical or non-technical people): * Your services part doesn't really describe technologies / frameworks. However, if I look for a freelancer I look for somebody knowing Django, Magento or whatever. * Same goes for the projects
- notastartup 12y agothose are great pointers, thanks a lot!
- svictoroff 12y agoActually, you don't even need to run route 53, you can just make the bucket public and do a standard dns lookup from whoever you got the domain from. That said, I think there's a huge value in having a central repository and a standard way to display a developer profile.
