You are not quite done. There\u2019s one thing missing, and that is <strong>a blog section<\/strong>.<br><br>If you are rolling your eyes now reading through this text, thinking you are not a creative writer and there\u2019s no need for you to write blog posts, allow us to change your mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We strongly believe that including a blog in an online portfolio can raise your chances of getting your next gig. And here\u2019s why:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>P.S. Be sure not to skip the very end of this article, to find out some tips on how to write blog posts recruiters will enjoy reading.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reason #1: Blog allows you to show your communication skills<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As you might know, when applying for a job, communication skills are of utmost importance. No matter if you are applying for a position of a creative team member or a freelance designer who is going to talk with the company\u2019s manager only, you are going to encounter a lot of different personalities, handling both pleasant and unpleasant situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the reason why it is essential for you to <strong>show that your verbal communication is on point<\/strong> and that you don\u2019t hesitate to discuss a work-related issue, in the search for a problem solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since recruiters are checking your online portfolio, they won\u2019t be able to find out how you behave in a working environment nor how you communicate. If you think about it, when they go through your previous projects, they will get a glimpse of your experience, skills, and expertise, but not your soft skills.<br><br>So, if you want to show your potential clients just how communicative you are, <strong>use blog posts for this purpose<\/strong>. Write posts that will show your soft skills<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reason #2: An updated blog shows your dedication<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You have probably heard that the no. 1 rule of blogging is to determine your blog posting frequency. And that\u2019s the truth.<br><br>When writing posts for your blog, you don\u2019t have to pay as much attention to how long the articles are. What you should pay attention is how often you publish posts. No matter if you create one post every four days or a post every four weeks, <strong>the most important thing is to be consistent<\/strong>. By following the predefined schedule, you\u2019ll show how dedicated and consistent you are.<br><br><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.launchgrowjoy.com\/create-blog-editorial-calendar\/\" target=\"_blank\">Create an editorial calendar<\/a> and get to writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reason #3: Having a blog section helps you stand out<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Can you do us a favor and check <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.awwwards.com\/websites\/portfolio\/\" target=\"_blank\">Awwwards\u2019 best portfolio websites<\/a>? You don\u2019t have to go through all of them, just check the first five sites.<br><br>What did you notice about these sites? Smooth animations, big typography (which is in trend right now), a compelling website copy? These sites seem like they have it all!<br><br><strong>What they don\u2019t have is a blog section.<br><\/strong><br>So, why don\u2019t you use this information as your advantage? Be one of the rare designers that created an outstanding portfolio website and had the time and the will to create a blog section AND to write posts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reason #4: Having a blog allows you to show who you really are<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s be honest: Projects or Work page in your online portfolio is your chance to brag. And that\u2019s O.K.<br><br>There are numerous high-skilled designers who have worked with major brands and created beautiful art pieces, and you need to stand out.<br><br>When including a project in your online portfolio, you can describe the work you\u2019ve done in detail, mentioning the goals you reached and the techniques you used. Not only that, you can refer to a couple of big names you have partnered up with, followed by some astonishing visuals.<br><br>To allow you to brag as much as you want, we included the project info section in all our portfolio themes. We are especially proud of how the project info section turned out in Bottega.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/themeskingdom.com\/wordpress-themes\/portfolio\/bottega\">CHECK OUT BOTTEGA<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>However, recruiters need to see more than you showing off. They would love to see your perspective and struggle when you were working on a particular project. They would like to see <strong>the challenges you went through<\/strong> and how you handled them. Make their wishes come true and put all your challenges in blog posts. <strong>Show your personality, attitude<\/strong>, what motivates you and ignites your creative spark, etc. Show how organized, independent, reliable, and result-oriented you are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reason #5: Writing blog posts will show recruiters that you are ready for your next gig<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In any profession, especially in design, you should never stop learning, sharing, and building your experience.<br><br>This is the reason why we would recommend you include in your blog posts all the <strong>courses, classes, conferences<\/strong> you attended in the past period and share your perspective. You can also write about the books you\u2019ve read, and the lessons you\u2019ve learned collaborating with previous clients.<br><br>By doing so, you will show that you care about your professional growth and that you are ready to invest all your skills into your potential clients\u2019 projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quick tips on how to write blog posts that will fit your online portfolio<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>By now, hopefully, you are a bit more convinced that you should include a blog in your online portfolio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>So, to help you get started with your blog and writing the posts, we came up with 10 quick tips:<br><br>1. Create <strong>several blog post categories<\/strong>, so recruiters can find what they are looking for faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. When deciding on blog post topics, keep in mind the reason you chose to write blog posts. If you created a blog in the hope of getting more gigs, <strong>think about the type of content recruiters would be interested in reading<\/strong> and what blog posts would contribute to you being hired.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Every blog post needs to have an introduction, story development, and a conclusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. Try to come up with <strong>a catchy headline<\/strong>. For example, if you are planning on writing a few paragraphs about your favorite book, you can write a headline like <em>The Book That Changed My Perspective on X Things<\/em>, rather than just naming the book and the author. You can always experiment with negative headlines (which contain the words like \u201cnever\u201d or \u201cstop\u201d) or headlines that are in the form of a question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5. When it comes to writing style, opt for <strong>a conversational one<\/strong>, your online portfolio visitors will enjoy reading. Leave out the acronyms and jargon terms aside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>6. Paragraphs shouldn\u2019t be longer than four lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>7. Be sure to bold the parts of the text you want to emphasize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>8. Link to your projects and brands you have partnered with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>9. If you are not much of a writer, you can always <strong>add a video<\/strong> or exciting visuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>10. Once you feel like the post is done, <strong>check the flow of the text<\/strong>, grammar issues, and punctuation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">There\u2019s only one question left\u2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2026 are you ready to include a blog in your online portfolio and start writing blog posts?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are, we wish you good luck!
