Portfolio Website

Scenario

Every designer needs to market themselves, and the most affordable way to get information out to your prospective clients is a Website. For around $100 a year, you can get hosting that will allow anyone in the world to access your portfolio, contact information, rates, and anything else you might want to share.

Objective

In order to receive credit for your work, it must be on your Website. You will start by creating a basic Website and will be responsible for maintaining it throughout the year by adding projects as you complete them. Later in the year you will create a more advanced Website.
