If you are in creative business, it is very important to maintain an online portfolio. Showcasing your work is important in order to get better recognition and hence better business.

A lot of artists wish to maintain an online portfolio but they have little idea about where to start and how to move ahead. These tips might help:

Make a clear plan
Choose carefully: Make sure that you choose your best works. Making a great portfolio is more about the quality that you showcase rather than the quantity. Make sure you spend ample time picking your best works to showcase on your portfolio. The more variety you show, the better it will be. Choose only professional work, not anything that you did for your family.

Add some information

Always mention a few lines describing your work. For example, a painter can mention the meaning of a particular painting and his inspiration behind it. This way the client would be able to connect with the work in a much better way.

Add a feedback form

Try taking every visitor’s feedback. Not only will this help you know what people think about your work, but would also help you improve as an artist.

Try to be different

There are thousands of portfolios on the internet. Try to make your portfolio different than others so that your clients can recognise your work easily. When planning your portfolio, you can visit different portfolios available on the internet and learn more.
