As a marketer, setting up a portfolio site is crucial especially if you are a designer, developer, photographer, and even an author. The good news is, it is not a requirement to be an expert to create a portfolio site, and an individual does not have to spend a dime to create one. To put the icing on the cake, utilizing tools available on the internet will allow you to create a portfolio website under an hour. My recommendation is to consider a site to use as a portfolio. For a person starting in this new field, Wix, Notion, and Carrd offer easy to use with templates requiring no skill and dragging and dropping interfaces. For those with a bit more experience, GitHub Pages with Jekyll, and Hugo themes are good choices and are free. People with a little more money than sense can use WordPress.com which offers free plans with a myriad of themes tailored for portfolios. Having a defined structure for a portfolio will make the execution more efficient. This structure can have a photo of you, a short bio, and your best work samples.

Sticking to the simple structure, a homepage with your bio and introductory work, an easy to access gallery or portfolio section, and a simple unobfuscated email link or a contact section will make your portfolio easily. Set a structure and stick to it, and the end results will be well worth it.
