A free portfolio website for brand designers

A client looking for a brand designer is about to spend real money on something they find hard to judge. They want to see work like theirs, understand how a project runs, and get a sense of the price before they reach out. Below is what a brand or graphic designer portfolio needs, what clients ask before they get in touch, and Nora, a free portfolio template built for it.

What your website needs

Your site should help the right client decide to book a call with you. Everything on it can point there.

Show a few projects in depth instead of a wall of thumbnails. For each one, say what the client needed, what you made, and what changed for them afterwards. That is what a buyer compares with their own situation.

Explain your process in a handful of steps, from the first call to handover. Say roughly what a project costs, or where your prices start. Clients who can’t find a number often assume you’re out of reach.

Keep the about page short and about how you work. Home, a few customer stories, pricing, about and contact is enough.

What your visitors wonder

Have you done work like mine?

They look for a project close to their own industry or size. Name the type of client in each story, so they can find themselves.

What will it cost?

A starting price or a typical range is enough to keep them reading.

How does a project work?

Say how long it takes, how many rounds of feedback they get, and what they receive at the end.

Why you and not a cheaper option?

Compare yourself honestly with a logo contest, a big agency or doing it themselves, and say who each one suits.

How do I start?

One clear way to book a call, and a line on what happens during it.

A template that can cover this

Nora

Nora is built for a brand or identity designer who works alone. It has customer stories with a page per project, a pricing page, a work process, an FAQ and a comparison with the alternatives.

Every page leads to booking a call.
