Portfolio Website

Project 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.

Project Objectives

In order to receive credit for your work, it must be on your Website. You will create a Website using WordPress and be responsible for maintaining throughout the year by adding projects as you complete them. The idea is that your portfolio website looks professional:
