# Portfolio website design, SEO and AI visibility

> A portfolio website shows your best work to win similar projects. It should present each project as a short story with photos, scope, location and outcome, load images quickly, and connect projects to the services and towns you want to be found for, so the portfolio ranks as well as it impresses.

## What a portfolio website needs
- Project pages instead of a single gallery
- Fast, well-compressed images
- Filters by project type or service
- Client quotes and outcomes
- A clear path to request a similar project

## SEO and AI search considerations
- Descriptive image file names and alt text
- Project pages tagged by town and service
- ImageObject and CreativeWork markup where useful
- Internal links from service and location pages

## Frequently asked questions
### Is a gallery enough?

A gallery looks good but gives search engines little to read. Short project stories with location and scope give each project a chance to rank.

### How many projects should we show?

Show your best and most representative work, and keep adding. Quality and variety matter more than count.
