Got a New Feedback From Our Client.

RECOMMENDED

“Zahid did an excellent job creating our product demo video for our website homepage. After publishing it, we saw a clear boost in engagement, users spent more time on the site, and it directly led to more signups.”

I always get questions about what makes a good portfolio and/or Contra profile. These are my personal top tips! The most important thing, though, is to get lots of feedback. So, I'd love to invite everyone to drop their profile links in the comments and open this thread up as a community feedback space. Share your work and your thoughts/advice for others!! I recently redid my entire profile (and all of my case studies) using this Contra profile template and am feeling much happier with how it's looking. I'd love to hear your thoughts on mine, too!

A fresh review of what it’s like to work with me 👇

There’s nothing better than hearing something like this from a client after putting everything into a project 🥹

I need honest feedback: what would make you stay longer on a case study? 🤔

I recently saw a recommendation in Contra’s dashboard about going deeper on projects to improve portfolio quality, and it made me question how I am presenting my own work.

I tend to write a lot. I like explaining the thinking, the systems, the decisions. But I honestly do not know if people are actually reading it, or just scrolling through the visuals.

I have been revisiting projects like BASYX and asking myself. Is this a portfolio for designers, or for the person hiring me?

Would really appreciate honest feedback. Is this too much copy?

Do you read case studies fully, or just scan?

What actually makes you stop and pay attention?
