Frequently Asked Questions
Our checklist covers six key areas: content quality (projects, bio, contact info), visual design (consistency, readability, branding), technical implementation (performance, responsiveness), SEO (meta tags, structure), accessibility (alt text, keyboard navigation), and user experience (navigation, load time).
Aim for 80% or higher. Portfolios scoring 90%+ typically excel across all categories. However, focus on quality over quantity - it's better to have fewer polished items than many mediocre ones.
Review quarterly or whenever you complete a significant project. The web and hiring landscape evolve, so regular reviews ensure your portfolio stays competitive and technically current.
Content quality is paramount. Your projects and how you present them matter most to recruiters. However, poor technical implementation (slow loading, not mobile-friendly) can prevent visitors from seeing your great content.
While comprehensive, this checklist complements rather than replaces feedback from peers, mentors, or professional reviewers. Different perspectives catch different issues.
