In this video, I'm going to try to review 50 portfolios super, super fast. You're probably asking yourself, why do it so fast? It's not fair! Give the person enough time to dive into their portfolio. But the truth is, I recently had to hire a designer and I got 550 portfolio applications. If I would spend one minute reviewing a portfolio, that would be over 10 hours! Let's see how I manage to review 50 in 20min.

Love it, feels more realistic as you represent someone hiring who lacks time. My takeaways are:
- Hero is crazy important
- Nice profile image
- Unique layout
- Interesting consistent visuals
- Social proof
- Too much text
- CTA at the end vs before seeing any work.
Feels like the structure of a high converting landing page. Patterns are similar.

i never understood why people feel the need of saying they use webflow everywhere and right away. 98% of the clients wouldnโt know what that means and it might just confuse them

I think both formats work well: a deep dive so that we can understand why the design works well (or doesn't), and quick reviews like this video where we have an idea of what grabs people's attention at first glance.

I loved your super fast reviews! Please do more of this helpful videos because itโs really inspiring!

Thanks for the shoutout and feedback, Ran! ๐๐ It means a lot, especially coming from the person I found out about Figma and Webflow! A portfolio redesign is scheduled already, and will stick to one good font and non-generic copy ๐๐ค

This format rocks! I absolutely love it. So good to learn from a first impression

Keep doing these, really love to see how your react. I just finished my Digital Design & Development Bachelor 1st year and everything I learnt is what you refer to in the video. Super insightfull!

I watch your videos, I learn new things and increase my knowledge of creativity. It really helps me to better understand current and traditional ideas of the design industry. Keep up the good work! ๐

I LOVE THIS VIDEO! I do this every day with clients and competitors. Honesty helps them! You've shot straight as an arrow. Very refreshing

This was awesome! Thank you! It would be really great to do this again taking fewer items and going a bit more in-dept. I would like both approaches.

Thank you so much. Your video really really really helped me. And yh, this format of short reviews is just fine
1 |
thanks for reviewing my site! really appreciate you taking the time

These reviews are really helpful. Please continue and as mentioned a deep dive into one or two portfolios is a good idea. I see typography plays a big part.

Appreciate the shoutout and your input, Ran! ๐
I'm in the process of revamping my portfolio, taking your advice into account by refining the colors and fonts. ๐

Yes! Love it! โค can you do also about other kind of websites besides portfolio?
1 |
great style of video. keep them coming
2 |
Love this format! First impression can actually tell you a lot and give some valid feedback to work with, rather than going over every little thing.

I think, I can totally feel what you are feeling. And I know it's something eh-eh. I wish I could type honestly, but uh-hu. But such series teach us a lot about what to do and what not to do. Definetly learned a lot! Thank you very much.

Not to be rude, but its a good lesson as a designer/developer to follow these reviews.
Being a graphic designer myself for over 12 years, I have learned not to overcomplicate either your work or yourself.
Ram defenitly has some good pointers we all can learn from. Cool to see so many try something new and differrent, you never get too old to learn something new. But often simplicity and straight for wins over overcomplicated layouts and messages.
Stick to your gots, try things first before launching, test, re-do, test again - Trust me. I am at my portfolio website version 12 and still not satisfied :D
Thankyou for an awesome video Ran and look forward to see more portfolios!
PS: NEVER GIVE UP folks :)

This should be a recurring series where you review site/portfolio designs and give suggestions as well as praise for good design.
