In the age of home phones and 8x10's we all wondered how anyone could ever afford to get into the modeling industry. Even after you invest a small fortune in professional training and other peripheral services, you still have to purchase all of the marketing materials to send to anyone with a mailing address.
Times are changing, and if you haven't noticed, the world of modeling is taking roots on the web. There are a number of powerful resources at your fingertips to help you find opportunities. The hard part is figuring out what service will help you get noticed or help you promote yourself professionally.
If you have been looking around the web you've noticed all of the standard agency websites promoting their models with a few static photos that the agency placed on their website -- 3 years ago!
The problem with the standard method of going through an agency just to get your photos online is that you don't have much control in the process. The alternative is to build your own portfolio website add photos and recent work experience. Unfortunately, it can be a daunting task to create portfolio website.
Fear not! There are tools out there to help you construct a personalized portfolio website that you can use to market yourself in a variety of ways through numerous channels. And what is this portfolio website tool?
