Setting Up a Portfolio Website: What Artists Need to Know

Written By Amanda Mollindo

I remember the first time I set up a portfolio website.

I’m not gonna lie… I had NO idea what I was doing!

But fast forward about 4 years and 6 websites later, I can definitely say I’ve figured out a thing or two about creating a great online portfolio.

And get this — I have almost no formal HTML of CSS experience!

My secret?

Countless hours of tinkering with website themes, plenty of research, and LOTS of trial and error.

To make sure you don’t make the same mistakes I did when I was first getting started, I created this video to give you the rundown on website building for artists. And the good news is, you really don’t need any coding or web design experience to get your site up and running!

In this video, I share key concepts, like:

  • Choosing a domain

  • How to pick the best website building platform and layout design

  • What pages you should include

  • Why you should maintain a blog on your website

As a fine artist and digital marketer, I use beauty and clarity to amplify stories that matter. By finding relevance in complex ideas and nuance in difficult topics, I help biotech entrepreneurs and emerging artists alike communicate their value to the people who will benefit from hearing it most.
