This may be a rather arbitrary question but how long should it take to create a beautiful portfolio website? I've been in photoshop for 3 days now but the end of the design is in sight at least! I'm building it in wordpress so this time I'll have a blog too - something which is definately needed for a SEO bump :) I’m re-designing my site at the moment becuase the current one is actually a modified template (the shame!).

I have this discussion with myself regularly, and found good questions right at the top under #1. Despite loving some of the newer site designs, I get great feedback from my site for a number of reasons. 1: Visitors can find what they're looking for; 2: it suits my style. As a print, not web, designer I can manage my own site as it's set up, which is crucial. Keeps me from changing up the entire site, but instead I constantly do fine tweaks and tuning. Seems to be a lot of designers working overtime to impress each other with overdesigned sites that, while beautiful, are impossible to navigate. How does that serve the client? Thanks for this breakdown. Most helpful! This is a clear process for evaluating whether on not to change a site.
